Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

So I made a Melee TAS and when I go to dump the frames, the .avi is so horribly distorted that you can't even make out what game it is. It's as if it the screen was put into a paper shredder or something. I've tried various revisions of Dolphin (mostly 4.0-9000 and up) but none have helped. It's not my PC either because I had the same issue on my laptop as well. I've also noticed that, compared to the older revisions of Dolphin that I used before taking an almost year-long break from any sort of TAS editing, the new revisions don't ask me which encoder I want to use. I select "Dump Frames", hit "Play Input Recording", and it starts playback with no dialogue box or anything. Here's a screencap of the distorted video:


what do

That happens if the window changes size while you're recording the video.

Is there an issue about this on the bug tracker? I don't know if somebody is willing to spend time to fix this, but not allowing to change the window size while recording, that might be good enough for most people.

Yes, https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/8959

I found a workaround. I changed "Force 16:9" to "Stretch to Window" after going fullscreen. Worked like a charm! Thanks for your help, guys.
