Is there any plugin or other way of making Dolphin not emulate graphics/video? Sometimes I want sound only for...certain reasons. What I've had to do so far is make my graphics card crash, which blanks out the Dolphin window, but I'm hoping there's some better solution.
All you need is black screen right ?
Try all hack until it give you a total black screen
Minimize the window.
Turn off your monitor.
Close your eyes.

It's not as simple as that. My computer usually handles Dolphin fine, but it has its hiccups. Any time it does, the music will skip. If I want 100% reliable music emulation, I need to get rid of the video emulation.

Nobody ever made a "No video" plugin?
Why? It's useless...

If you want to listen to music goto youtube ^^

Hardly. I mean, it's pretty useless for what this guy wants, but for fast forwarding through a .dtm movie, it could be quite handy for the extra speedup.

Of course, realistically, there wouldn't really be much of a speedup. Much like how disabling audio does not stop audio emulation, all you could stop would be the rendering of the output. It's not useless, it's just a huge waste of time to implement.
