FractalFusion: I am submitting this on veup's behalf. It completes Standard Marathon sooner (1:37.24) and has many interesting little tricks (such as all-clears). Note the score at the end.
Fix ARM Cycle Count is off this time. Fast Fetch-Execute should be left off. Any version of rerecording DeSMuMe should work this time.
  • Aims for fastest time.

For more information regarding Tetris DS, see the previous submission.
Enjoy watching, and remember, TAS is serious business.
mmbossman: Setting this to "Needs more information". If the author of this input file does not want his works submitted here without his consent, or does not explicitly state his desires regarding this submission within a reasonable amount of time, this submission will either be rejected and locked or outright deleted (I have not decided yet). However, if the author makes it known that he is ok with this movie being submitted under his name, this submission will be judged as usual. Please restrict the discussion of this movie to whether or not it should be published based on entertainment and technical prowess, and not authorship.
mmbossman: Information acquired, accepting this for publication. To all: From this point forward, it would be much appreciated if you only submit your own work, so that we can avoid situations like this in the future.

Why not let him decide himself if he wants to submit this or not? Maybe he was planning to add more modes, and make a more finished movie, like he did before (publishing this certainly won't motivate anyone to add more). Maybe he wanted to redo it on another emulator version. Maybe he found a way to improve it. Maybe he's just not interested in TASvideos, and doesn't want his movie published here. You sent him a PM and he didn't respond for a whole four days? What is the big rush? The site had been doing fine for years without a published Tetris DS TAS, it will be fine without one until he gets a chance to respond. Either way, he is fully capable of submitting a movie himself if he wants to... I think doing it for him without his consent is a bad idea.

I agree with you completely Baxter. If they aren't interested, then... they aren't interested. Look at maTO as an example. He has just started submitting runs here even though he has made tons more. ( I hope you don't mind me using you as an example maTO.)

I would vote yes, because it's faster and has a neat score, but I want to know if veup approved of his run being submitted before I vote.

Bisqwit found morimoto's TAS movies and decided to make a site that hosts them. I don't see anywhere in the history where it mentions Bisqwit contacting morimoto and asking permission.
If that's the case, then I'll vote for this submission to be published. ........... Please don't hate me!

I'm sorry for my too late reply. I would appreciate if this movie could be published. I really thank FractalFusion for writing this text, since I can't write English well. And I'm also looking forward to watching the run with more modes!

veup, you're a blessing. Also, encoding, I have no idea what on Earth to set the bitrate to though, 380? The emulator lagged enough (60% speed) trying to dump it in H.264 lossless. It must be the 3D things in the side.

veup, why don't you join the Japanese IRC server, #TASers? They will help you if you are not good at writing English. By the way, your movie was fantastic.

Now that it's clear the author wanted his work here, I'm pleased to say that this looks very clean and is surprisingly fast. I definitely approve of this video being published.

Stolen & tampered post: This is slightly off-topic, but the two encodes I've gotten of this movie -- the published one and the mkv one from Aktan -- have had the sound desynched by about a third and an eighth of a second, respectively. Is this a common thing that no one's bothered to mention until now, or are my codecs just a bit boffed up? If it helps, I'm using the "K-Lite Uber Codec Pack" and Media Player Classic on Windows XP with Service Pack 3.
<klmz> it reminds me of that people used to keep quoting adelikat's IRC statements in the old good days <adelikat> no doubt <adelikat> klmz, they still do

I believe your codecs is messed up. Someone else said in the MMX2 thread with the same exact codec pack had the same problems with my encodes. While this video does have a delay due to me not noticing that encoding to AAC adds a delay until now, the delay was minimal that I didn't notice until later. The exact delay is -105 ms off, which apparently you may have noticed. But the fact that the other guy noticed a delay on an encode that fixed the AAC delay problem, and that you and him both have the same exact specs, I think it's more the codec pack's fault. I don't know if it installs Haali media splitter, but that's what you need.
