Hey, everyone. I want to submit a movie but I do not understand how to get from the TASstudio file to the bkm or bk2 file. Can someone please help? Thanks.

It's not. Playing back an input file like bk2 always requires the ROM, or a copy of it.

So, do I need to put a copy of the ROM into the Zip, or just the bk2 file, at the submission ?

Just the bk2 file. Do not distribute the ROM file - that is against the site rules here.

If you want to show a work in progress or a complete TAS, you can upload a quick encode to YouTube. Here is a guide: http://tasvideos.org/forum/t/16971
my personal page - my YouTube channel - my GitHub - my Discord: thunderaxe31 <Masterjun> if you look at the "NES" in a weird angle, it actually clearly says "GBA"
