Description
The attached file contains a stand-alone player that is capable of playing SID music and sound effects of the C64 version of Maniac Mansion and Zak McKracken.
It's not yet ready for integration into ScummVM but at least it is a beginning. At the moment it supports music files (e.g. themes) and some (but not all) sound effects.
The player is in a very early stage and still has lots of cryptic variable and function names.
With an additional patch music/sound files can be extracted with ScummVM. The patch adds a dummy player for C64 sound/music files to ScummVM that only dumps the sound/music data to a file.
I post the very incomplete player here to show its current status and in the hope that someone wants to improve the player or find out how the player works as I'm not really certain of the necessity or function of some variables and functions.
The player depends on resid 0.16 (http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/crossplatform/emulators/resid/index.html) and SDL. An MSVC++ 2008 project file is included.

a little update to the player: - all sounds (at least all i have tested) work - the console app now terminates when playback of the file is finished

Player update and integration into ScummVM.
All sounds work. Most of the variables and functions are named now. With the ScummVM patch MM and Zak can be played now in ScummVM with sound.
In addition player_zak.cpp contains the Zak player which is slightly differs from the MM one (player_sid.cpp). Seems as if priorities (especially for "background" sounds) are handled a little different (MM uses prio 1 for bg sounds, Zak sets bit 7 to 1). For example at Stonehenge the electric fence sound is not played if Zak tries to touch it. This is probably due to the priority issue.
It still needs some work to clean up the code.

Ive just finished testing these patches, the SID support is perfect, it brings back so many memories.
After speaking with Tobias who sent me the most recent files I have simply created a patch file which includes the resid code which is under 'scumm/resid' it also includes the player code and updated msvc9 project files.
it can be found here:

Hopefully this will make it to trunk soon :)

Update of the sound player: - the resid library has been striped to three files: sid.cpp/.h and wave6581.cpp (wavetables). Everything that is not used (8580 emulation, potis, sound input, resampling, ...) has been removed. - the now obsolete ringbuffer class has been removed.
