So I was exploring all the options that Dolphin brings, and found a tool called FIFO player.

I´m curious in knowing its purposes, what does FIFO mean and all that... Tongue

Any explanation is well received! Smile
The fifo player is used to debug games by the developers.
When you save a fifo log, it has info on what Dolphin is currently doing at that time: whats being rendered, whats compiling, running, executing, etc.
It's useful when you find an error and report it to the Google code issues page so that the developers can see what is actually going wrong in the engine of Dolphin besides what the user can see on the surface
But... if that´s the case it has almost the same function as the Dolphin registry tool.
What in the world is a "Dolphin registry tool"?
That black square over there (right side). (See attachment).

EDIT: Sorry if you don´t understand spanish, but since that´s my native language I have Dolphin like that. Tongue
lol no
Well, whatever name the black square has, wouldn´t it have (more or less) the same utility the FIFO player has?
...Please just shut up already.
