Figured I should start a thread about that. I noticed a while ago TASVideos actually supports the TI-83 through their in-house emulator, BizHawk. Talked to the devs on their IRC channel on Freenode, they told me TI-83 support is pretty much a toy on their emulator (probably because the Game Boy uses the same processor with an extended instruction set), I was pretty much the first person to request it and therefore it have minimal support. (It's at the state they have to figure out what's the difference between a 83 and a 83+.)

TASVideos maintains a list of desired features in an emulator here in order to accept movies to their database: http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/Features.html Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only 2 things missing to Wabbitemu and/or Tilem are savestates and a movie file format so you can send TASVideos TASes. Alternatively, another thing we could do is improve BizHawk's 83+ support. (The devs would welcome your help.)

So this is my suggestion. I think it would be pretty fun to accurately TAS the many games we have on TI-83+/84+.

I thought wabbit had save stating of some sort?

Both TilEm2 and Wabbit support save states, and they can output animated GIFs.

I think WabbitEmu has (or used to have, at least) AVI support. I don't think TilEm2 does, though.

EDIT: There was just no compression on the AVI files so they were super huge.

Yeah, but you cannot really savestate at one exact frame, due to lack of frame by frame support and there's no real time rewind feature.
