Is there anywhere on the interwebs where one can download the input files for a TAS? for instance, the emulator BizHawk saves TASes as .tasproj files. WouldI be able to download raw .tasproj files anywhere? I think it would be interesting to whatch the TAS real-time, as well as see the exact timing for certain tricks utilized. Of course, if I edited it, I would not post one without the creator's explicit permission. So is this a thing? If not, why not?

k Go to a movie (for example: [2995] GBA Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow "all souls" by Fz-Last, alkdc & Pike in 18:45.26) and hit the link that says '____ movie'. In this case, 'VBA movie (.vbm)'. There's one for every published movie on the site.

.tasproj is mostly just used in the making of bizhawk TASes with TAS Studio, they're uploaded to the site as .bk2 or based on whatever emulator was used.

[16:08:10] <BenLubar> a TAS is just the limit of a segmented speedrun as the segment length approaches zero

I think you're confused as to what sort of files actually are input files. .tasproj files are not input files, they are project files for TAStudio projects in BizHawk. .bk2 files are the actual input files for BizHawk movies. Go to any movie publication on this site, and the first download option will be to download the emulator input file (e.g. bk2 for BizHawk, .fm2 for FCEUX, .dtm for Dolphin, .lsmv for lsnes, etc.). Those are all input files.
