I started making my TAS, but I kinda messed up on a part. It seems whenever I try to play the movie back, it plays up until when I stopped recording, then lets me control my guy as if i'm playing the game again. My question is how do you overwrite a recording a specific part that I need to overwrite and redo? I need to re-record, and like "save my progress" so to speak, otherwise I guess I have to manually edit out the mistake in the final video upon release?
Alrighty then

Um... Enable Read+Write mode while playing back the recording, pause before the mistake, save state then load state, I guess? How are you TASing, exactly?

What I do, and find incredibly useful, is I make a savestate at the end of my movie so when I do edit a part, if I am unhappy with the result I just reload my original movie. But be wary, this isn't fool proof. Perhaps you lose that state, save over it, etc. I always keep 3 versions of my bk2 file. One in my bizhawk, one in my documents, one on my desktop.

...or you could save your progress with git, for example with a tool like SourceTree.
