1 - You can only limit speed by capping FPS in "Configure" option. - You can also + speed by pressing TAB if you have powerful computer 2 - For TAS Input you can use the arrow keys to move, or you can modify numbers for modifying the angle 3 - Dolphin is hard to TAS on when beginning, like me, but you easily like to TAS on it :p Just don't forget to read the RachelB topic on Important TASing information
Current: Rayman 3 maybe? idk xD Paused: N64 Rayman 2 (with Funnyhair) GBA SMA 4 : E Reader (With TehSeven) TASVideos is like a quicksand, you get in, but you cannot quit the sand

There is frame advance. No idea of specifics, since I haven't used Dolphin.

Nice The Fox references. :p You can also drag the joystick dot in the TAS Input window to the desired position (though this is usually less accurate than typing in the numbers as got4n said) and it'll move to that value the next time you frame advance. Same thing with checking the box next to each button. (Also, where it says Up, Left, Right, and Down, those are the D-Pad buttons, not the joystick.) It really helps to be able to see what you're pressing on screen too. You can enable an input display by checking the box next to Graphics>Advanced tab>Show Input Display.

But that's what frame advance is for. It's the most precise way to enter input in most emulators. You hold down the input you need and press the Frame Advance button to advance a single frame (1/60 second). That's how most TASers enter exactly the input they want, and it makes it a lot easier to optimize sections than just slowing down time.

You can set a frame limit in the config. You can also set a hotkey to increase/decrease it.

Why dolphin didn't support record video? If have, then how can do it ?

You can dump video in Dolphin by checking the box next to Graphics>Advanced tab>Dump Frames. This will dump only the video though. If you want audio too, you will have to dump it separately by checking the Dump Audio box in DSP options. The lengths won't be perfectly matched though, so they can't be easily synced. Usually, it will take an A/V sync build to sync them perfectly. Just dumping the frames is the least trouble though, if you don't mind not having sound.

It's explained in this thread. Dump both the video and audio with an A/V sync build of Dolphin, combine the audio files, merge the audio and video with an Avisynth script into a video editing program, and then save the synced stream as a video file which can be uploaded to YouTube.
