I accidentally recorded a fcm with 2-player input, and I want to hex edit part of the movie into another movie which is 1-player. To do this, I would first like to completely remove player 2 from the movie to make it easier on myself. http://tasvideos.org/FMV.html I've tried converting the movie to fmv and then writing a script to delete all 2-player input. To do this, I changed flag2 to 128, and recorded only frames 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 - EoF, then converted back to fcm. I think I've gotten close a few times (Movie length displays as correct in fceu), but it always desynchs at the very beginning. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Could someone else possibly lend a hand and write a script that removes all player 2 input from a movie?

I believe Bisqwit has a utility that does exactly this (it may even be a feature of NesMock...but don't quote me on that).

Actually, I just saw the NESmock homepage, and NESmock v1.5 indeed has this feature! Too bad there's no Windows version yet. Actually, I'm currently using v1.2, I wonder if v1.4 has this feature. Edit: ... Unfortunately, it doesn't. And I'd still like to know what I'm doing wrong.
