iplboot will reset into the original bios if it can't find an SD card with ipl.dol on it.
If you want to flash the original BIOS, you can do it the normal way, read the document that comes with the updater for more information.

Use iplboot.

Good to know. My qoob is still on my other mainboard and I don't really need to transfer it over at the moment so I won't be touching this.

Which versions of Swiss and gcmm are you using? Is that black screen when you try launching it through the SDML menu?

Nothing worth posting about for now, the custom dev board I had been waiting for turned up with a major design flaw so it's still blocked by that.

pictures are dead, can them be reuploaded? Sorry, I don't have them anymore and the site that hosted them is dead. The pi can do everything you've mentioned but it needs a hardware assist (FPGA, or an MCU that can handle very fast IO) to receive drive commands. Dedicated devices are being developed...

Yes.

1.3c is the latest official bios. You can also use iplboot to load Swiss from SD gecko.

You need the USB cable to flash the Pro currently, unless you figure out how to splice the BIOS image into the official flasher like the SX version (I can't help you with that, sorry). No way to play games via USB without an ODE.

1) The wasp itself doesn't support audio streaming.
2) This has already been looked into and there were some issues. No one is interested in fixing this, see the next point.
3) Just wait for the new drive emulators to come out. They will have hardware support for it.

It's a bit faster than the real drive, and doesn't support audio streaming. Compatibility is also not perfect, though it does the job. You'll be hard pressed to find one now though.

Sorry that was long, I tried to put it in a spoiler box, but in the preview at least the spoiler won't expand. Not sure why.

Spoilers have been broken for a while and I haven't been able to catch emu_kidid's attention on the matter.

You need to update it again now.

You're supposed to write the recovery image to the card using a tool like dd or win32diskimager.

Everything you asked is listed in the OP.

Apparently it's to compensate for unwanted movement in the opposite direction when you let go of the stick.

I haven't tried HBC as I don't even have a Wii, but that shouldn't be the problem. You could give Swiss a try, it will output debugging information over slot B (must be enabled first). If the FTDI shows up on USB then it's working. Flashing it only changes some information in the descriptor that isn...

The FIFO will get stuck if there is no software on the GC trying to read it. What are you testing with?

You don't download special ROMs. All of the features are described in the wiki.

Nice trick! Alternatively, you can use Swiss which will detect the region of the game and force the correct mode.

The GBP is a GBA. It can only do what the GBA can do.

Impossible because of hardware limitations.

Even if you could boot Cobra, the Viper itself will be disabled because of the flags in the flash header. This holds true for iplboot, but I'm not entirely sure about GCOS. If it doesn't disable the Viper, then it's possible to write our own flasher.

It's not even worth bothering then.
