hi guys i use mednafen-rr to tas a neogeo pocket game my problem : when i record a movie and i playback it, everything is ok ! after that when i want to playback it and record on it (read+write), i load a state and everything continue to normal, the recording process is running (in place of playback) and i continue recording my run...and when i finish the run, i load my movie and it just don't play the input anymore, the game just go like when you push nothing... you got an idea? p.s : when i use fba-rr for neogeo i have no problem, i just load a state continue record and when i replay, everything is in the box! lol if neopoket and neocd can run on fba rr a day i will please that ^^'

What version of Mednafen-rr? Because there was some version that broke everything except PCE and PCECD (and the breakage was never fixed)... I don't remember how that breakage showed up exactly, but movie recording did not work. In practicular, NGP does NOT work on versions that support .mc2 format.

mednafen-rr-1.1-win32 i read on the official page that story about .mc2, but for me it's .mcm so it's not due to that i guess the strange thing it's that i can record and playback like i want, but if i dare continue recording on a playback file (read+write) the emulator let me do it (recording process ) but don't playback it after (no input, only the exact frame count of my recording oO) i read too that the save file is particular in this emu to prevent work loosing....maybe i shall search at this part? edit : ok i'll try that Adelikat (will remind me of a scolar travel, when i first and last try a lynx lol)

That is indeed the correct version to be using and what I used to do a lynx TAS. Perhaps try a lynx game to see if that works? If you have no problems then that suggests there may be a problem specifically with NGP :/

i have the atari lynx bios, i have pit fighter rom (yeah, it must be a goooooood port) and mednafen just don't launch anything, i try with other rom, same thing... ok, i'm doomed, that much is clear. (i laugh like a fool when i see that crazy monkey animation)

I also tested Gordo 101 as well as the Lynx version of Chip's Challenge on mednafen-rr-1.1-win32 (with the BIOS image in the right place) and couldn't get either game to launch no matter what I tried. Is the Lynx core broken?
