Right, my monitor is 1440x900.

What's the pixel height for that tool then? Curious about how much I am missing.

Re-encoding. Too much messy tweaks in my script...

Does cjpeg have an option to set subsampling to 4:4:4? Without it no matter how I try, the loss is visible against GIMP, even if the file size/quality is greater than GIMP's.

That says to me "crushedjpeg is not a command, program, or a batch file"... Yes, I'm running it just near crashed.exe.

Woah! Gotta spend some time on testing.
But I already have a usage suggestion: can you make it work by drag'n'dropping the file on a program icon? For quality input, it could just open a command prompt and ask for user numbers. This way using it will take seconds, and tons of images could be processed in a row with various settings (which would be needed to determine the best quality to size ratio for a particular screenshot).
Anty-Lemon: please put spaces between images, it unbreaks the page for narrow browser windows.

Ugh.. maybe I'm really tired or busy :(
The level doesn't care about 2p or pacifust, but the boss has 15 less HP with 1p, and the second player when participating can not seem to speedup the fight at all! His bullets just won't register. This results in a faster boss fight when you're alone, given the same rate of shooting.
Rejecting I guess. Damn.

Hey look what I found!
http://code.google.com/p/microemu/downloads/list
EDIT:
Tested it a bit with Diamond rush (the game that got me started). Most of the versions don't work, but there are some that do, if you disable sound: 176x220 for sagem and sony, and 3 less powerful versions: 126x160 for sagem and lg, and 132x176 for siemens. The latter 3 seem to work with sound too, but lag as hell.
Overall the emulator IS pretty bad, laggy and glitchy, so it won't make sense to make it rerecord (yes, it's the only open-source mobile emulator), but its cores can be examined and used whenever a normal emulator is started by someone.
Note: it seems to support iOS and Android games too, but I haven't tried.
EDIT:
Shit, microemu was already linked here, haha. That link is long broken anyway.

I doubt if this kind of emulators simulators can be "accurate as the real hardware" to any degree, since the "J2ME Virtual Machine" on which the code runs does not emulate any real hardware at all. Could we be satisfied with a theoric "Generic J2ME Gaming Platform"?
EDIT: More specifically about accuracy.
With 9000 models of mobile phones that this platform is supposed to supply with game support, I doubt hardware-like accuracy is even a matter. We must replicate the platform, not the phone. It makes sense, since that platform was designed to be ran on anything, as long as the virtual machine is supported. I'd say as soon as it syncs with real games images, it's legit.

Is Genesis VDP supposed to be broken into tabs? It shows all the panels stack together for me, with only 2 showing up fully, 2 partially, and all the rest are offscreen.

Doesn't have savestates, but is open source, so if someone really wants............
EDIT: Eh, seems there are 2 kemulators, the mobile phone one's code not being too available.

Now as Spike removed the 2p branch (because there's no 1p counterpart yet), I guess we can remove the pacifist branch as well, since that is not a restriction time-wise, just a feature.

He uploaded a primary downloadable to youtube, despite my PM to him where I told him not to do it, and to upload an HD, and despite the encoding batch that says:
Press 1 for Modern HQ MKV.
Press 2 for Compatibility MP4.
Press 3 for HD Stream.
Press 4 for All of the above.
And all the relevant pages telling the difference between standard definition and high definition encodes.
Also, resolutuon can be viewed via MPC, by going to File - Properties - Details - Video size.

You should add a tag (not description) "yt:stretch=4:3" to that video. Wait, what resolution is the encode?

That's why people bind frame advance on Ctrl and D-pad to arrows.

The video was cut because he didn't update the frame to end it that was in the package script.

Yes vote, great run! As for another category, whatever goal would show more rooms must be publishable, as this run skips a whole bunch of them. Regarding co-authors, it's up to you to actually add them, but if you tried improving them and couldn't, co-authorship is not required, as speed strats are not copyrighted.

You left "'" as a branch (1 single quote inside 2 double quotes). Should be "''" (2 single inside 2 double).

I'm pretty sure it is possible to optimize the current run by at least another 30ish seconds if we can figure out the RNG and what triggers the arrow flags and dialogue flags so we can get rid of all the waiting. I get the feeling that this game is so glitchy that it is possible to find a way to glitch through the page boundaries without arrows, but that's just a guess...
There are too many possibilities, but I don't have the time to study how the game works in depth... but if anyone is interested to work on this, I'm happy to help!
I have the time! I'd need all RAM addresses you have, and 2 movies demonstrating 2 possible RNG outcomes for some event. Or an explanation how to get them different.

Sounds amazing, looks very superhuman, but lasts too long really, and I wished there were more "impossible jumps". Voting Meh, Vault content. But I think it must be published!

There's also a way to display some huge string of numbers, breaking it into lines where it fits the best. Bonus points for displaying slot numbers over object sprites.
Language: lua
-- SolarJetman objects
function DrawTable()
local Xcam = memory.readwordsigned(0x4c)
local Ycam = memory.readwordsigned(0x4e)
for Slot = 0, 0x1f do
local ID = memory.readbyte(0x317 + Slot)
local X = memory.readwordsigned(0x200 + Slot, 0x21f + Slot) - Xcam
local Y = memory.readwordsigned(0x25d + Slot, 0x27c + Slot) - Ycam
local CellWidth = 32
local CellHeight = 8
local ScreenWidth = 256
local RowLength = 8
local OffsetX = 1
local OffsetY = 9
local Color = "white"
if ID == 0 then Color = "red" end
gui.text(
Slot * CellWidth % ScreenWidth + OffsetX, -- text X
math.floor(Slot / RowLength) * CellHeight + OffsetY, -- text Y
string.format("%2d:%02X", Slot, ID), -- output string
Color -- you guess
)
gui.text(X, Y, Slot)
end
end
