That's a list of games that could crash without the audio fix. Wode won't crash either. It just won't play the sounds. most of these is silly things like intro music. I cannot tell the difference between my zelda collection disks and the original. If you read the wode board, the list is actually much smaller than that one. But anyways, the IDE to EXI sounds promising but wow is it ugly:-)
Because they still do regular updates, just no new features. The main dev who wrote the code left the project, and is not swimming in a vat full of greed, but just working on another project. In fact since the distributor and the main dev split ways, I don't think the main dev makes any more money off of the project. It would have to be written from the ground up to add new features. I think your trying to make the situation something it's not.

Unsure about how the WODE does it, but I remember with other modchips on the GC if you play games with streaming audio like the worms game, instead of getting music, you get static noise. Loud, annoying, static noise.
As far as I know you need to run SWISS to run with the IDE converter. Here is the list of game compatibility; it looks like swiss not only has trouble playing streaming audio, but it also has trouble running streaming games, and games with mic:

In my experience, with Wode you just get silence.

My experience with WODE is 0. As you said I only know it for forum comments and reviews.
I'm not fighting with you, just trying to put the point in the right place.
To be honest, I'm thankful for you expressing yourself out since that's the way I can improve my knowledge.
People here in Assembler knows a lot more about hardware than I.
So, is there a possible solution to have Wode + a modchip drive and be able to play all the games?
The ones with audio issues be able to play using mini dvd-r backups?
Yeap, but depending on what modchip you either need to have a modchip that supports the streaming audio fix and enable it on that and DON'T alter the image you burn - or alter the image you burn using the tool and DON'T have audio streaming enabled on your modchip... Or use swiss-gc I guess?
Are you sure the GC IDE-EXI Adapter can handle streaming audio? As far as I can recall it can't but would be happy to be shown otherwise.
Wode is a good solution for game cube but the lack of streaming audio leaves a bad taste in the mouth - especially considering it could be fixed. They had good plans (wifi streaming from samba shares) but the homebrew hd loaders such as wiiflow stole their lunch. If you used it on wii then wodeflow is a great gui for it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9aGbeFLUF8
But don't forget you can play all GC games on wii now too via DIOS MIOS and an SD card. Again there is no audio streaming with that either.
If GC IDE-EXI did audio streaming that would be the best option (and I'd like one too).
Looks like the GC IDE-EXI Adapter does not play streaming audio after all - it uses Swiss to play games and swiss doesn't support streaming audio. The author emu_kidid has some ideas about getting it to work though http://www.gc-forever.com/forums/vie...php?f=25&t=739 Maybe you will see it in the future
A new homebrew USB loader for the wii that support gamecube audio streaming is coming
