I'm having the hardest time getting Saturn games to work on BizHawk. This is Sonic R: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQxkSBdlUmw Mega Man 8: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92Lu4FCLowY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QNrThJLbCg And Sonic 3D Blast refuses to load.

Bizhawk is still using a very old Yabause core for Saturn emulation. For the time being, you are better off using the actual Yabause emulator.

I tried to install Yabause. But it tells me that SDL2.dll is missing from my computer (even though it is on the same file YB).

Yeah, It's a pain to even try to run a Saturn game. I never imagined that a 32bit era console would not have a satisfying emulator to this day. You can not even imagine doing TAS in it.

I have the most recent Yabause and have played a game on it with no problems. I can't say anything about TASing with it, but other than that, I have had no problem with it.

Saturn support is being added to Mednafen, with the latest update to the core being earlier this month. Seems likely that core will get ported to BH once it's stable.

I managed to install SDL2.dll., along wth Yabause. I have another question: Can you record footage using Yabause?
