Cropping it's a thing to save lives.
feos has this part defaulted to BizHawk Virtual Boy as VBjin is obsolete... there is a fix now provided by feos (bit below), this is here for reference now.

L = sauce.Crop(0, 0, 384, 224)

Actual feos: Here's all I can provide atm. The change in VB methods changed the scripts so heavily that there's no sane way to have both options.

One of the more technical type encodes that can be done to not cover up the character, the example being used here is; [6012] NES Super Mario Bros. "arbitrary code execution" by OnehundredthCoin in 04:52.65
Major thing to give as note for these kinds of titles is that Scale X% is set to 88% in order to work (obviously adjust where need be depending on system you're encoding for).

If you saw Disaster Relief Done Quick 2024 there was some little images at the start of each run that provided discord(s)/game/author(s)/commentator(s)/shortlink well this is how it was all done.
For the images, well the first part is get the images from their TAS pages themselves.
Except Gimmick! that image was requested from one of the authors.
Except Gimmick! that image was requested from one of the authors.
So, if you have AVISynth this bit should be straight forward.
- assrender - Used for the displayed text.
- FastBlur - Used for the background blurring.
- TAS Information - This has all the goods, font is Arial Rounded.
ImageSource("image.png", end=0).ConvertToRGB32()
last.PointResize(last.Width*8,last.Height*8).LanczosResize(1440,1080)
last.Levels(0, 1.0, 255, 0, 85).FastBlur(25, iterations=2, dither=true)
last.assrender("tasinfo.ass")
Now you have a 4:3 image.
Obviously this doesn't account for 1:1 or 16:9.
If there's future runs that require that, then well the only thing that would/should change is the ASS file, and that would be ammended onto this section.

As for the quick encode turnarounds this is the script I used for the event.
They don't have to be pretty since they're being rebroadcasted, so I actually did an outright avi dump then threw it into ffmpeg, instead of eternally using Hawk.
Mainly cause I wanted control on where the encodes actually ended with the "to" argument.

Mainly cause I wanted control on where the encodes actually ended with the "to" argument.
ffmpeg -hide_banner -i "input.avi" -vcodec libx264 -to 11:41.278 -x264opts no-deblock -vf "scale=iw*4:ih*4:sws_flags=neighbor,scale=1440:1080:flags=lanczos" -crf 15 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a libvorbis -aq 2 -b:a 128k "output.mp4"
Also please use the "no-deblock" argument deals with a lot of bull that exists.
Other than that, obviously adjust where need be, again because it's a broadcast you don't need to go as hard for the encode, you can make it a lil softer.
And if there's ever a GB/A TAS change that second scale to -1:1080 instead (also figure out your multiplier yourself).
And if there's ever a 16:9 TAS well change that to 1920:1080 instead (and yea, figure the mult yourself, I ain't here to do a full handholding for this, only mostly).
