Sound issues

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Two sound issues I've discovered.

1. click.wav and hover.wav don't sound right.  listen to them on your PC and 
compare it to wiiflow.  Wiiflow seems to be higher pitched, or maybe they are 
cut off too early.  strangely they play fine when they are added to a theme and 
wiiflow uses that theme. not a biggy but just an odd issue.

2. when flip.wav/ogg and hover.wav/ogg are added to a theme under _COVERFLOW 
section  for the flip and hover sound it slows down the game browsing (flipping 
thru game covers). but if those lines are left blank wiiflow uses it's built in 
default sounds just fine without any slow down.

just minor and odd sound issues. I realize your busy - fix when you can.  I 
would but I obviously don't know the code good enough.

For the first bug, I have a hint. This is because Wii cannot play music at any 
other rate than 32000 Hz and 48000 Hz, and the two wavs you are talking about 
are encoded at 22050 Hz, so depending on how the conversion is made, you will 
hear a higher pitch and it will play faster too. I think this is a really minor 
bug, but converting the wav to 32000 (with ffmpeg) should solve the problem. 
Didn't try though.

thanks for the info.  where did you learn/hear that about the Hz setting?  I 
did try converting them to ogg which worked but caused wiiflow to have some 
garbled text and eventually a DSI error.  Will give this a try, thanks.
