Is there any way to disable the Movie replay started movie stopped messages from showing up during the AVI capture in FCEUX? I've tried changing every option I can with no luck.

It doesn't show up in the AVI, only on the emulator screen. So no problem there. Same with most emulators. I think the only emulator with this "problem" is Snes9x.

No, those messages are most definitely showing up in my AVIs. Is it a weird my computer only bug?

Sorry, I misread your first post. To avoid the movie replay started message, start the FM2 file first (paused), wait 10 seconds so the message disappears, then record AVI. To avoid the movie replay stopped message, edit the FM2 so the end of the movie is past where you want to stop recording. I don't know for sure if it solves the problem. P.S. I'm using FCEUX 2.1.1.

That's a long workaround but it works. I'm having the problem with both 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 I know this is kind of backwards but is there a way to convert fm2 to fcm?

I saw this in one of the recent MM2 submissions: fceutools. There should be a command-line program called "fm2tofcm.exe" that does what you're looking for. I haven't tried it yet, though.
You're just fucking stupid, everyone hates you, sorry to tell you the truth. no one likes you, you're someone pretentious and TASes only to be on speed game, but don't have any hope, you won't get there.

I don't have this problem on either machine, so I'm not sure what your problem is. Maybe if you put your config somewhere I could take a look at it.

Hrm. Try http://xkeeper.shacknet.nu:5/emu/nes/fceux.cfg and see if that one gives any different results?

FYI, the fm2tofcm tool worked. At least it worked for klmz SMB run. Though, I think that one originated as an fcm anyway. Converted to fcm to try and rip with v0.98.28. No problems. Weird.

Oh, I get it. Use "Pause after movie playback completed", then wait for the text to disappear before stopping AVI recording. That might do it. Not sure, though, but...

No luck. Still getting this because message shows up after last frame... http://www.duneboogie.com/smb.png That screen ripped from avi not FCEUX. Going to try one thing real quick.

Bleh. Can't figure it out. Back to 0.98.28 for now.

It is both, IIRC. I remember commenting this out by hand when I found this undesirable; if you look at FCEU_DispMessage (video.cpp) there's an exception made during AVI recording specifically for the "playback stopped" message.

seems like an option to disable on-screen messages would be reasonable

You wish is granted: http://fceux.com/zip File -> AVI/Wav -> Disable Movie Messages With this checked you will not say Movie Playback stopped during AVI capture.
It's hard to look this good. My TAS projects

this issue has also been fixed in the SDL build --moviemsg 0 or set "SDL.MovieMsg" in fceux.cfg to 0
