Re: Help on doing my own FMV

That'd be the 50Hz/60Hz differences. I'm not sure how to force those settings on SNES9x. If you can find them then try changing them, or try BSNES and force the region settings.

It sounds like the video is running at 60Hz and the audio is set for 50Hz video.

Or... Relikk is right and the video source needs to be 30 FPS. Then you need to convert the video to this framerate and rip the audio from the converted video.
Then transform the video again into msu

Must have been why I made that edit. Makes sense.

Can I have a link to your Zelda source video, please?

@ Relikk,
you only need to rename the video he posted in the link into
mmx_msu1.msu -> alttp_msu.msu
mmx_msu1-35.pcm -> alttp_msu-35.pcm
and run in alttp

@jvhellraiser,
looks good, and I am happy that we could help you through this process. However, it's not on anybody's agenda to add a fmv support to MMX. There are only a few games that feature this like ALTTP, Chrono Trigger, Wolfchild, Out of this world. Never say never, but none of the to me known hackers (including me) will add it Sad

Oh, I wasn't sure if he got it working or not. Well, if it's sorted then that's good.

So sad i thought if i learn i could make videos that work on my favorite games
i am thinking there are tutorials on how to do this? you guys need to make FMV
work on games that are epic for the snes , Metroid,Zelda,Chrono Trigger, Demon Crest, Illusion of Gaia,secret of evermore,Secret of Mana, Final Fantasy III, you dont need to add FMV's in like every 10 minutes of the game only with and intro that makes the game even more epic.

Yeah, well... I think you already found the video asm, that I posted in the first post here:
https://www.zeldix.net/t1737-videoplayer-by-ikari-asm-source-code

If you place that code at the very beginning of the game, before anything else is loaded, this is relative simple to add. It will become a nightmare as soon you want to make it like I did for ALTTP, that it is hooked somewhere in the middle (after name select menu), because you need to restore all values overwritten by the video.

As I recently said a lot, there will be no further msu codes from me, there are dozens of msu game requests (dragon quest, paladin quest, tales phantasia,... ...) which I also rejected. I do that for over 5 years now. There are still almost daily help requests (like your topic here), bug reports, etc (maintainance). You can imagine that when a hobby becomes more a burden, and you try to retire for 3 years already, that you start to reject requests...
