Additional information

I did not try to compile it yet. Also, It's kinda duplicating some other emulator packages, but they don't have any feature to make TAS videos, only BizHawk can do it AFAIK.
It might require additional hardware depends on what the game is.
DISCLAIMER: I also have to say BizHawk is strictly built for x86_64 only. However, if i remember correctly, there is a way to actually run it on an ARM64 device if you get the right dependecies. [Learn more]
