video or audio.
This makes most games playable, but the player can choose to get fluid audio instead of fluid video in sound-test modes or games with epic soundtracks.

Also correctly fill the buffer with silence when returning from pause. This reduces or eliminates crackling.
The emulator kills time in two circumstances:
* In automatic frameskip mode, without fast forwarding, the emulator kills time if it rendered a frame early.
* In manual frameskip mode, without fast forwarding, the emulator kills time to wait for the next rendered frame.
|
|
* Fake out the buffer timing by sending a buffer full of silence when returning from pause. Reduces crackling introduced by the next point.
* Send buffers only once every 23.22 milliseconds, not up to four buffers at once (92.88 milliseconds) and randomly thereafter. Reduces note-length jumpiness.
* Audio may have trouble catching up if external jitter reaches 11.61 milliseconds. That happens if Mode 7 images or filtered modes take a long time to render, or if chips take a long time to execute.

These hotkeys can be overridden per game so that the global version of the hotkey can be ignored.
* Language file fixups related to \n (newlines).
* Pictochat fixups: shorten START and SELECT to ST and SEL. Should still be recognisable.

ds2_setBacklight() MUST STAY, however, otherwise the emulator can crash with the bottom backlight off if a touch is recognised twice in a row. That happens with some broken styluses, so it's not unexpected.

FOREVER_16_BIT_SOUND and FOREVER_STEREO and use them throughout the code.
This is essentially commit 6b36e79013d4c9273a96a9783a2bccdb516f174a, but for sound instead of graphics.

explain in code comments why they're needed.
I know ds2_setBacklight(unsigned int) needs a delay before it, otherwise if done too close to another call, it crashes.
This partially reverts commit 8951fdff1aada126257e07699ea6f132cb8d2e65.

problem isn't as apparent anymore, and automatic frame skipping doesn't go to 8 FPS all the time in Super Mario World. Thank the deities!
Reverses the auto frameskip synchronisation from commit dac11c74ac112728016e51625ac9f2a727152ddd, because that doesn't play well with interrupts.

Remove old automatic frameskip code.

to 8 FPS right away and constantly. The equivalent frame skip will be 2, 3, 5 or 8 most of the time, depending on the game, and will vary a bit depending on rendering demands.
For example, the frame skipping in Super Mario World is 3 on the map and in graphically simple levels, and 5 in complex levels.

Optimise the controller code. I don't expect to allow remapping any time soon, because the DS has buttons for every single SNES controller button and nothing more.

PAL timings (20 ms per frame).
User-selected frameskip causes slowdowns if the game runs slower than the resulting frame rate, but synchronises correctly if the game runs faster.
Automatic frame skipping is still the default. It now only skips up to 8 frames, but in some games still skips that entire 8 frames. What's needed is an algorithm that averages frame latencies over a few seconds and skips while the latency is LOWER than the average.

selection interface freezes when it gets to the folder containing Mightymo's cheat files, whereas it did not do this before with the converted Mightymo cheats. (335 files -> 679, though.)

lose keys entirely sometimes, and could otherwise delay a button press or release by 200 ms.
This was the entire reason I created the fork, and I finally did it! It syncs the controls every scanline of a frame, which costs about 60,000 MIPS instructions per frame to deal with. Luckily, the processor runs at 396 MHz, which means the cost of checking the controls is 1% of the CPU's power.
|
|
In addition to having less sound skipping going on, certain platformer games (I'm looking at you, Super Mario World) are helped by having more synchronised controls. In other words, synchronising the audio also synchronises the controls a bit more.
