Whenever I start my movie file, it desyncs the first time when I play it. However if I play it again a second time or any time there-after, it will play through just fine. Here's the details Running the latest version of DeSmuME that was linked in the forums here, DeSmuME 0.9.6 svn3645 x86 The game is Sonic Colours I'd be more than willing to upload my .dsm for someone to check it out, but I'm not sure what the rules are about that here. tl;dr Is it normal for desyncs to occur with some games but it corrects itself when played any time after the first time?

Hmm, that is very odd indeed. In general, what may affect the syncing of this movie should be a ROM or some emulator option, e.g. emulating a GBA game while running the movie. I don't know what causes the desync once, run fine the next times though. In general, if you want to upload a movie file, use microstorage (http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php) or, if microstorage doesn't support the file, Mediafire, or some other filehosting system. Just make sure it doesn't require any waiting times, registration or any of that other bullshit.

Alright, here's the dsm (Thanks scrimpeh for the link to upload movie files!): http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/1676856565/Sonic%20Colors%203.dsm It's the Euro version of Sonic Colors (Known as Sonic Colours in that version). Play it once and see if it desyncs, which usually occurs right after the start menu. If it heads into the tutorial, it's desynced (which is identifiable by tails having dialouge in a level at the top of the screen). It should come out like this video I uploaded, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=budK401adWk, during the second time playing the movie file. The boss fight isn't included in the dsm due to it being optimized and unfinished at the moment.
