Rythm Heaven Fever crashes at Remix 1

[MajesticBBQ]

2 things
I'm running an ISO file like the emulator asked, I may only do hardware stuff for computers, but as far as I can tell if I were to extract with like winrar or something from that ISO to it's raw files wouldn't the program be unable to run it?
Also if older versions of a program can run a file smoothly but the newer one can't, doesn't that mean it's a problem with the program?
Correct me if I'm wrong with these since I'm new to using an emulator.

I go in to more detail with this to hopefully make it easier to understand, tldr is that a dump doesn't involve extract game files at least in not the way i meant, but more info is below.
A dump is also call a rip it a iso or other image file that contain the game from a game disc. Since this is a wii game you could use a wii or wiiu to copy the disc contents to a file. It usually in an iso format. Those error you report like in a previous post are because it was compress disc image format as already mention. However the format it was in is a lossy compression meaning it not possible to restore the file to a original file. This mean you might have to redump the iso from the game disc or use an uncompressed backup. It possible with the newer build of dolphin more accurate emulation it having problem with the compression. If you use a friend wii\wii u did maybe you could have him help you with this if you not familiar with this.

That is hard to read, but are you talking about the errors I said at the beginning or when I verified the cache?
The first set of errors I don't get at all in dolphin 4.0, I pushed through the lag to see more.
If you mean the verify errors I made a new ISO and I got : Update partition missing, disc image has unusual size.

As mention this is because of being a compress image that use lossy compression. As a emulator improve accuracy usually does also. So what work in older version might be broken in newer builds due to high accuracy. It possible the the homebrew use to get the image did this. I use cleanrip and don't compress but there other that exist and do. You might be better off using the wii\wiiu to get a different image and seeing if that work properly.

As I stated the errors I got this time where 
update partition missing, and unusual file size

Okay what homebrew program are you using for getting iso off of wii games. Cleanrip is what I use but it is can be annoy getting it to work properly some times, but I know there are others.That message sound like the homebrew use to rip is using a lossy compression and removing what it think it can or it a bad rip.

Game cloner.
I genuinely think it is a dolphin issue, mainly considering the way it crashed was like when my old ps2 would crash when reading a perfectly fine disc. Also what do the errors I mentioned at the beginning mean?

[themaster123]

It means that some data is missing from the iso that should be there. From what I can tell game cloner is a pc software. Most dvd\blueray can't read gamecube, wii, or most console system properly game disc and wil and likely have errors. The program I was referring to was for the wii and was homebrew that use the wii or wiiu as that the way most people are going to have to do the rip.
It is possible that somewhere something in dolphin broke this game but it also possible that the increase accuracy meant the missing data was more important and you going to want a rip that is able to be properly verified to get to work properly. There also some game image compression for gc\wii that remove some of this info and that be known to cause issues also.

Well my wii finally broke, why I was trying to port and emulate them. I do not wish to buy a new wii just to play Rhythem Heaven, so if nothing else can be done then so be it.

The errors you posted in https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-rythm-heaven-fever-crashes-at-remix-1?pid=513194#pid513194 are not the types of errors that would cause the game to not run correctly. So the problem is probably something other than the dump.
