Why are you calling an interim build a branch? I uploaded my branch just once, then switched back to master.

Also, should I move this to tastudio thread or you wanted it to be posted here specifically?

Is it possible to load a branch state without the emulator pausing? I've got "Autopause at end of Move" unchecked but the emulator pauses whenever I load a branch state using either the GUI or a hotkey for "Quick Load." I'm running 1.11.6 on Windows 10 with the N64 core.

Check the interim build in the OP. Branches are busted in 1.11.6, but they should be working properly in the interim.

Hi Samsara. Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately loading a branch still pauses the emulator in the interim build no matter what I try. I'm also not able to select the branch "0" slot by using the "Select State 0" hotkey (but 1-9 work this way). Are these bugs?

Yes, will fix soon.

Thanks feos! I'm new to TAStudio so I don't want to call something a bug if I'm not sure of the intended functionality.
I've also received a couple error associated with running out of memory. Is there any guidance on the memory allocation sizes?

This error only happens with n64 for me, and it's VERY inconsistent. If you could figure out the exact repro steps that are absolutely reliable each time, we could fix it.

I tried it a bit starting a fresh PSX project (that I saved, loaded, edited), and it behaved normally. But I observed something like this with N64 before. Can you figure out the exact repro steps for PSX?
It happens every time I play the TAS I'm working on. Do you want to try playing my WIP to see if it happens for you as well?

I can. It won't select the main bizhawk window slot 0 though, since it's useless with tastudio launched.

Fixed, will update later.

Works well for me.

Tested Hetfield90's thing with N64. It only starts inconsistently placing states when the frame it is supposed to put a state on is lag. And when it's consecutive lag for a bunch of frames, it removes the state it just created on that lag area when as it advances emulation.
Weatherton's crash stops happening to me when I set Memory Capacity in Savestate History Settings well below 500MB. With the limit of 512MB, it crashes when EmuHawk occupies 800MB+, dunno why it does that.

Every now and then, I noticed when I delete a frame on the latest interim build with TAStudio, it makes BizHawk not respond. It doesn't even give any exception or anything; just randomly freeze.
Since it gave no message, checking on Event Viewer on Windows 10 gave this

Sorry for the double post, but this time I got a different crash bug:
1. Open BizHawk (the interim build)
2. Open the game 2711 - Drake & Josh (U)(Rising Sun).gba
3. Drag the lua script https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-2O13fpsnI4ejhzS3BaNjF6a1k
4. Play this tasproj https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-2O13fpsnI4Zy16NmpYU01wNzA
5. Open TAStudio and TAS for a bit
6. Save the movie
7. Close TAStudio
8. Reopen TAStudio. This then happens sometimes.
A completely different bug regarding the tasproj file is that for some reason, the marker for frame 0 won't work (in the interim build). Clicking on the marker for frame 3762, then after a while clicking back on frame marker 0 will give this:
http://pastebin.com/uApvBFps
Anyone else getting these errors?
Edit: Not sure if this makes it more prone to crashing, but the settings for movie uses MGBA yet the core selected started out as VBA-Next.
My config file:
http://pastebin.com/1B64ydtH
Edit2: Cut/Pasting input in TAStudio seems broken in the interim build.
I have also encountered the Movie/Platform Mismatch error when opening a .tasproj file that I was working on.
7-zip could not open the file, and I attempted to open it with the most recent build of BizHawk which also did not work.
Is there a potential fix for this issue?
Thanks in advance.
The rom I am using is the JP version of Super Mario World.

If it helps, when the emulator crashes, for the tasproj file, instead of right click using 7z, I found that going to program files and then opening the program "7zFM" and manually navigating to the tasproj file from there opened it. No idea why this worked for me.

Get the newest version of 7zip, that helped me.

The newest version of 7-zip allowed me to open the file, however for some reason the delete option was not allowed.
So what I did was copied all the other files except the Greenzone file and then made a zip of them with the name of file.tasproj and that worked for me.
Thank you for the help!

How do I play the tasproj with tastudio closed? What step it should be closed at? Does that work with other platforms?
EDIT: Fixed cut/paste and other stuff, update and check your crashes again.

Hello
I using tas studio tool for create tasvideo and i having problem to editing old frames.
What i do:
*I open a game
*Open TAStudio
*run the game
*I press some game buttons
Then i do something wrong i press rewind button and work well
This make go back some frames
But the problem is editing this old frames
I press game buttons but no work
I want edit old frames pressing game buttons
The only way to edit old frames is clicking on the squares on TAStudio
But clicking is no good because this make lose lot time then editing
Have some way to editing pressing game buttons?how?
Sorry my bad english, is not my main language
1. TAS using TAStudios for a GBA game, any type
2. Without stopping the movie, play another .bk2 file of the same game for a bit
Without closing tastudio?
Correct. When I have TAStudios opened, then I open a bk2 file under File>Movie>Recent>example.bk2 it plays back that movie AND immediately closes TAStudios.

I used the same method as above; File>Movie>Recent>example.tasproj. It plays back the file without opening TAStudios. I believe this also works for GBC. For some reason, the errors are not consistent, so sometimes this works comepletely fine while other times it gives

First paragraph of the Details? Are all your crashes still happening?

I think you want to be able to edit old frames with the keyboard, like how you can with the live recording (See issue 586 for something similar). Honestly, I don't see any problem with live recording at the end of the movie. But yeah I agree it would be neat to be able to use keyboard to edit some frames there and there. Something like if I press A, the current frame's A button state (pressed and not pressed) is changed?

I haven't encountered it again yet however.
Edit: Not sure if it's just me, but after opening, saving, then closing tasproj files multiple times, frame advance gets slower and slower in TAStudios in the current interim build.
