chello,since dolphin 1.02 I wait for soundfiles compatiblity like .afc in Dolphin !
Why is it so hard to make that files compatible ? Or is it illegal to make that compatible (hehe) ?

Emulation is not easy and dolphin is open source. If you want the files compatible you can code for the sound plugin. If you really want to listen to the files winamp can play all game cube and wii sound files.

Yes,it works with Winamp (with this Plugin) but that is not the same !
I mean SSBM and Wii Sports and many other games with brstm. files etc. work but why they can't make .afc files comaptible ?
I think ,afc is more important for a Nintendo Emulator !

Hi. I don't know about the coding of dolphin. It's in c++ languague. There is that "in_cube" plugin for winamp, and here are the source code in C. Maybe this libraries can help to play this kind of files (and the formats supported) in dolphin code. I repeat, I didn't look the dolphin source (I need time for it), but, I don't know, maybe this source files can help. Just a thought

Sorry for my bad english!

I do not think the authors of this great emulator have a problem creating a player for the files it is actually emulating the hardware that is the challenge.
