SMB fast run (warp-using ) new record.
The movie length is 4:59.60(17976 frames), from power on to ending the input. When it measures until it took the axe, by having carried out 14frames shortening from the former version, a game is ended within five minutes.
Shortening of a time is aimed at by mainly applying the acceleration power to back in the air.
Much time and effort has been imposed for very slight updating. It shows that Mr. Phil's time is close to a limit.
80% of this movie is made by Editting a file. It is not a thing for showing operation technology.
This movie was made by reference in the play of Phil, and advice of Mana. Thankful to two persons.

Note: The rerecord count is not really "1". This movie was converted from VirtuaNES using nesmock. The improvement (when comparing the moment of axe hit) is 21 frames (the minimal possible unit), and it ends at first possible moment before the axe is hit. Thank you Pom!

What's the actual rerecord count, then? Also, can you download the VirtuaNES version anywhere?

So the 5-minute barrier has finally been broken, albeit barely...simply beautiful! -Josh

Yes - it is here: https://files.tasvideos.org/bisqwit/smbTApom.zip I don't know the actual rerecord count. nesmock read it as "0".

Thanks! Pity about the rerecord count, though. Ah well.

I think there was some delay before he pressed start, so that should be fixed.

And if it was to control randomness? The level still starts the same time anyway. Isn't it better if the startup screen is readable for a longer time?

Does the 21 frame rule also apply to pressing start at the title screen? If so I didn't know that, but it still looks a little sloppy so you should ask him whether or not it was to control randomness.

Yes, it does. Knowing that, I don't see it as a problem. It's nice for the startup screen to be visible for more than 1 frame.

To be clear, it applies to the black screen that comes in between of levels, and yes, also before 1-1.

Is there a minimum amount of time improvement that a movie must have in order to be published? I thought it was 1 second, rounded, but this proved me wrong.

It depends on the precision, movie length, intention, entertainment and other vague factors.

FODA has a point, but SMB has got to the point that ANY improvement would probably be accepted...even if it was by less than 10 frames...

Not to mention that in the SMB1 case, any further improvement will probably feature some new tricks, which will also make it worth publishing even if the actual difference in time is not really noticeable.

It's mostly the grue at this point, actually, and that's because there have been edits made to the submission text for one reason or another (over the past couple of days this has been largely to remove links to now-dead pages).
