Just walking around the castle fixing bugs as I find them, e. g.:
- make decompression routine safer (this could write a couple of invalid byte in at least one case)
- also support compressed data header without actual data (required in the kitchen scene when killing the evil cook)
- fix some graphics/palette related glitches
- Add dual layer graphics display to display the Japanese characters in their proper (double) resolution on top of the graphics. The original actually uses text mode.
- Adapt mouse handling to dual layer code.
- For consistency I got rid of all direct calls to _system->lockScreen() and _system->unlockScreen(), even in the sub engines that aren't affected. I find it easier to debug and to maintain this way.
This flag is removed for a few reasons:
* Engines universally set this flag to true for widths > 320,
which made it redundant everywhere;
* This flag functioned primarily as a "force 1x scaler" flag,
since its behaviour was almost completely undocumented and users
would need to figure out that they'd need an explicit non-default
scaler set to get a scaler to operate at widths > 320;
* (Most importantly) engines should not be in the business of
deciding how the backend may choose to render its virtual screen.
The choice of rendering behaviour belongs to the user, and the
backend, in that order.
A nearby future commit restores the default1x scaler behaviour in
the SDL backend code for the moment, but in the future it is my
hope that there will be a better configuration UI to allow users
to specify how they want scaling to work for high resolutions.
- both known variants are supported (INSTR.DAT + MUSIC.DRV)
- INSTR.DAT/MUSIC.DRV holds channel mapping, instrument mapping, etc.
- fixed bug inside S1D MidiParser, that ruined some instrument changes
0xFC header was seen as 2 byte header, but it's 4 bytes in Elvira 2
and 5 bytes in Waxworks / Simon 1 demo
- dynamic channel allocation for the MUSIC.DRV adlib driver is not
implemented atm, simply because at least the demos of Waxworks and
Simon 1 do not use this feature
- sound effects of Waxworks are not implemented atm
- note: the game "Altered Destiny" uses Accolade INSTR.DAT variant too
This also removes the dependency of engines on the event recorder header
and API, and will make it easier to RandomSources that are not properly
registered.
The regression affected AGOS and maybe some others; specifically,
the real MidiDriver would have been deleted twice -- I previously
missed that the Engine instances takes care of freeing the real
MidiDriver, not the MidiPlayer wrapping it.
This commit should clarify the ownership of the real MidiDriver for
most pseudo MidiDrivers.
Many engines follow the advice in audio/midiparser.h and create a
"pseudo-MidiDriver" subclass. But MidiParser really only needs a tiny
subset of the MidiDriver capabilities, namely those found in
MidiDriver_BASE. So we try to subclass from that whenever possible; this
allows us to remove many stub methods, and enables further future
simplifications.
This commit contains the AudioCDManager changes from the gsoc2010-opengl
branch. The other changes in that branch are restricted to the backends
directory only (plus configure).
The Nintendo DS and Dreamcast ports still need to be ported over to
the new Audio CD system, but that should be fairly easy to do.

This includes an rather hacky attempt to merge all the recent gp2x backend
changes into the branch. I suppose the gp2x backend and probably all new
backends, i.e. gph, dingux etc., might not compile anymore.
Since I have no way of testing those it would be nice if porters could look
into getting those up to speed in this branch.

This is currently done in the engine code. I adapted AGI, AGOS, DRACI,
GROOVIE, LURE, MADE, QUEEN, SAGA, SKY, TINSEL and TOUCHE to send a reset
device on startup. The sound output still works fine (started up a game
from every engine), so this should hopefully not introduce any regressions.
As far as I can tell it seems that SCUMM does send a proper device reset, so
I did not touch it. KYRA only sends a proper reset for MT-32 currently. I am
not sure about SCI though.
This fixes bug #3066826 "SIMON: MIDI notes off when using RTL after SCI".
