Audio Overload v2.1 Test1 for Linux

"Features
- Playback support for thirty three different music formats.
- Transparent decompression of 7ZIP, GZIP, LHA, RAR, and ZIP archives.
- Optional volume level normalization.
- Export-to-WAV functionality."

"Hi all,

I believe all previously released Linux versions of AO used OSS /dev/dsp, which in the last 12 months has basically disappeared completely from mainline distros. I have been building a better audio output backend in that time, and I have a version today for testing. It's a 32-bit binary that I have tested on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 32-bit and Fedora 14 64-bit. (x64 Fedora users may need to install some .i686 packages to get everything going).

Here's the command-line switch:

-output=pulse gives full native PulseAudio support using the "non-simplified" API. This is the default if you give no options.
-output=alsa gives native ALSA support, which is a little buggy but should work on straight ALSA setups with no PulseAudio
-output=oss gives the old /dev/dsp OSS support (if you use OSS4 for whatever reason)
-output=sdl uses SDL output similar to MAME/MESS - this is intended as a compatible fallback if nothing else works

NOTE that this does not necessarily contain any bugfixes or new format support, this is simply to get the thing running again on modern systems. In particular it changes nothing with WAV output from multi-song files like NSFs.

If you download this, please reply if it works or not and what your distro is and which options you tried. Thanks!"

Dolphin texcache-rewrite SVN r7517

"r7515
texcache-rewrite: Clean up texture encoders in DX9 and OGL. Still glitchy.

I don't know why it's glitchy. It's like the source region is offset and stretched. Does it work in trunk?
r7516
texcache-rewrite: Merge latest from trunk
r7517
texcache-rewrite: In DX9, pay attention to Pitch of locked surface.

Unfortunately, this doesn't fix any glitches. It should definitely be done on trunk, though"

PCSX2 SVN r4627

"r4627
GUI: when the config panel is open, and using keyboard shortcuts for frame-
limiter (F4) or aspect-ratio (F6), reflect it at the GUI, but ONLY if there are
no intermediate changes at the GUI (i.e., only if the "Apply" button is
currently disabled). This would prevent re-applying obsolete values when
clicking Apply/OK for for these two configs (after they were changed via KB
while the GUI was open).

This is a very light infrastructure to allow some synchronization between KB
shortcuts and the GUI. Currently only used for frame limiter and aspect ratio KB
shortcuts. I wanted to also use it with frame-skipping (shift-F4), however,
frame skipping GUI seem to have other issues which prevent it from properly
reflecting KB modifications, so it's out for now."
