Build available at http://dl.dolphin-emu.org/prs/pr-259-dolphin-latest-x64.7z .

This change specifically affects GameCube games which use the DTK/streaming audio functionality of the DVD drive to play music. A list of potentially affected games is available at http://www.gc-forever.com/wiki/index.php?title=Audio_Streaming (this list is accurate, but incomplete). Highlights include Ikaruga, Eternal Darkness, and Super Monkey Ball.

This change has a few effects. The most noticeable one is that it makes music play at the correct rate even if the emulator isn't running at full speed. It also fixes issues in a few games; among other things, it fixes a crash in Ikaruga. (It will also make it easier to implement changes to the audio code and audio dumping in the future.)

Pac-Man Fever is known broken; besides that, there aren't any known issues with this change.

I'd like to get testing for more games before this change is merged. In particular, if anyone has "Zoids: Battle Legends", please test. (If you find an issue with this build, please compare the behavior to latest master.)

Tested: Super Monkey Ball 1, 2, Mario Super Star Baseball, Dave Mirra Pro BMX 2, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3, 4, Starfox Adventures, Swingerz Golf and Pacman Fever.

No noted issues, lots of synchronization issues fixed (cutscenes, transitions, etc.) in most games.

Pacman Fever is INCREDIBLY broken in Master, so the fact it's broken in this PR shouldn't exactly block it from being merged, mainly because it may be non-DTK audio issues.

It appears to be only playing the first DTK audio track in Starfox Adventures; I don't remember this happening in an older version of the Pull Request.

With your new build I tested Star Fox Adventures & Craxy Taxi:

Star Fox Adventures:
Sound pretty good, more sounds BGM, audio sync, etc.

Crazy Taxi:
Same issues.

HINT: For avoid confussion change the number of the build or date (ex. 20140618).

Darkness Knight: It was outside of the scope of the pull request. It was broken before the rewrite. We don't know what's wrong, or if it's even related to DTK audio itself. That's why it didn't get fixed.
