Hello all, I'm having some kind of problem playing the videos. First I downloaded the Snes9x that is in the sticky, then I have gotten the correct ROM which I have double checked that it IS the right one but when I try to play the video the guy played normally in the start of Donkey Kong Country 2 but then he died and started doing some weird things like dying jumping off ledges like the button presses and the ROM had fallen out of sync. I tried Donkey Kong Country after that but in that game it went crazy right at beginning. Then I tried Donkey Kong Country 3. It worked correctly watched about 5 minutes but it got boring because of all the warping. After this I downloaded the edited Gens in the sticky to watch some Sega videos. I started watching S3&K speed run and that was good fun. Then i tried to watch Sonic Spinball (not 100% sure I got it from this site) and it went crazy right at the beginning. Am i doing something wrong here or is it my system? I'd really like some help. TY in advance Edit: Music or sounds never fall of sync though.

You can find some info in the FAQ. With some games you need to let the game run for 10-15 seconds before playing the video. I hope this helps.

You have to make sure the other emulator settings sync up as well, e.g. uses left+right/up+down and allows WIP1 timing and stuff like that.

Just tried that but it always happens in the same part in DKC2. He makes a bad jump and dies then it just goes crazy. He walks everywhere and drops down to the death

You need the version of SNES9X which has reset recording, you can find it on the link that ventuz posted, just look for the reset recording in the name.
