VCR - Video recording for mupen64
---------------------------------

1) The VCR menu
  Start record...     Creates a savestate (.st) and starts recording data from
                      the input plugin into a .rec file.
  Stop record         Finishes the .rec file and closes it.

  Start playback...   Loads the selected .rec file and the matching savestate,
                      then starts sending input data from the .rec file to the
                      N64.
  Stop playback       Stops playback.

  Start capture...    Starts playback for selected file & captures Audio/Video.

2) How to create a movie
  1) Open the rom, run it. Go to the place where you want the movie to start and
     select "Start record..." from the VCR menu.
  2) Play the part which you want to be recorded in the movie later.
  3) Choose "Stop record" from the VCR menu.
  4) Then choose "Start capture...", select the .rec file, enter a filename for
     the .avi file and wait until rendering has finished. You can also choose
     "Stop capture" to stop capturing at any time.

3) Notes
  - On my PC when running xawtv in overlay mode I only get black screen in the
    movie.
  - Only works with glN64-0.4.1 at the moment.
  - The window needs to be fully visible on your desktop, if it's covered by
    other windows parts of them will show up in the movie.
  - MP3 bitrate is hardcoded @ 192 kbps.
