Sounds or cdda come from the cdr not using dreamshell loader at all but fat 32 loader built into the bin
data is being read== write to the sd card/// cdda or music or adx is coming from the cdr this means reading in 2 places at once so any streaming format can play while loading data..
Cant stream cdda and load data at the same time on cdr you can with what I'm doing since all data is loaded from the sd card..
simple concpet works flawless
SD card has faster seek times data loads faster Course optimized fat32 loader ..
I have come back from sega Saturn using SDL, and have tested this method works on Saturn, although Saturn has 2 cpu, it is more suitable for this kind of thing, but dc should be faster because the cpu is fast enough Much faster than ss, I have tested and used my own rewritten spi driver to read dc 2Mb bios and 128kb flash, and it only takes about 10 seconds to write to SD card, theoretically it will be faster to read
