- When the OPL3 cores were added, DiskWriterIO was never updated to take
into account things like more than two OPL2 chips can be configured.
- DiskWriterIO no longer does any file writing directly. That function has
been split off into an OPLDump class, which has two specializations: one
for RDOS Play, and the other for DOSBox. If one chip is configured, it
dumps for a single OPL2, otherwise it dumps for an OPL3 (effectively
dual OPL2).
- TODO: Figure out why playback of raw OPL files doesn't sound nearly as
good as playing MIDI with the OPL emulation. It's probably something
simple I overlooked.
but only supports three pan positions and not the full 127 MIDI pan positions.
- Added opl_core cvar to select emulator core. 0 is MAME and 1 is DOSBox.
- Added DOSBox's LGPL OPL core, distantly related to one adlibemu.c written by Ken Silverman
(not to be confused with the ancient MAME-derived and GPL-licensed core also found in DOSBox).
I believe this corresponds to their "compat" emulator, but I'm not sure.

can be played as OPL can also be dumped.
- Removed the opl_enable cvar, since OPL playback is now selectable as just
another MIDI device.
- Added support for DRO playback and dual-chip RAW playback.
- Removed MUS support from OPLMUSSong, since using the OPLMIDIDevice with
MUSSong2 works just as well. There are still lots of leftover bits in
the class that should probably be removed at some point, too.
- Added dual-chip dumping support for the RAW format.
- Added DosBox Raw OPL (.DRO) dumping support. For whatever reason,
in_adlib calculates the song length for this format wrong, even though
the exact length is stored right in the header. (But in_adlib seems buggy
in general; too bad it's the only Windows version of Adplug that seems to
exist.)
- Rewrote the OPL dumper to work with MIDI as well as MUS.
