I've been recording a speedrun and did plenty of cool tricks and made it to the fifth level in one night of recording. When I played it back the next day, it stopped syncing in the middle of level 2. Three levels of awesomeness gone! I found out what the problem is. I had been accidentally recording in Snes9x 1.43 instead of 1.43+ (I have both versions. I guess I opened the wrong one) so when I played it back in 1.43+ it went out of sync. I guess my question is, does the site accept submissions from 1.43 that don't sync in 1.43+? If not, I have a lot of work to do over. :/

Yes, this site accepts movies made with 1.43 FINAL. (I assume this is what you mean by just 1.43.) However, your question is a bit strange: 1.43+ should be able to play movies both made in 1.43 FINAL and 1.43 WIP. Are you sure that your movie plays back correctly in 1.43 FINAL? In any case, FINAL has some timing problems which WIP doesn't have, so it's advised to record in WIP timing. (1.43+ can record in both timings.)

Yes, I'm sure. I played it back in 1.43 and it plays fine, but not in 1.43+ How can I know for sure if the version I have is 1.43 FINAL?

You can probably have it play back just fine on 1.43+ if you uncheck the "Use WIP1 Timing" box.

I wonder why I didn't think of that. That seemed to fix it. Thanks.
