Atelier Iris (1 and 2) slow-as-hell videos

[GoogleCodeExporter]

While in most games (like Atelier Iris 3) videos work just fine, for some
reason the videos in Atelier Iris 1 and 2 (including opening movies) run
very slowly. CPU at 100%, 33% of emulation speed.
--------------------------------------

1) Did the game ever work correctly (i.e. not have this problem) on the
Official PCSX2 build or an earlier version of PCSX2 playground? 
(If so, please specify the latest pcsx2-playground or Official revision
that last worked.)

Not in any pg version I've tried.

2) What steps will reproduce the problem?

- Run Atelier A6 or A7 (Iris 1 or 2).
- Watch opening movie.

3) What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Video at 100% speed. Video at 33% speed.

4) What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Playground svn r546.

Vista 64, e2160 overclocked at 3.25GHz, ATI radeon HD4850.

5) Please provide any additional information below.

Disabling/enabling speed hacks, rounding modes, etc. don't seem to affect this.

Use native resolution in gsdx, or switch to zerogs.
If that fixes it, there's not much we can do :p

Verified this.

GSDX with native res checked -> 33% (no improvement at all)
ZeroGS with antialias off -> ~50% (improvement over gsdx, yet incredibly slow)

Hope it helps.

Well, currently I get 37fps in atelier iris vids using gsdx and 52 using zerogs.
This seems a bit slow, but is normal for some videos.
So nothing much to do on our side.

Keep testing that game with newer revisions of pcsx2 and gsdx, it may get 
better :)
