Enable the thread by adding this line to the video plugin ini files, "User\Config\gfx_dx9.ini" and "User\Config\gfx_opengl.ini":
UseFIFOThread = True
The line should be added under the UseXFB line.
To disable the FIFO thread, use this line:
UseFIFOThread = False
If the line is not in the ini file, the default is disabled (i.e. False).
The FIFO thread causes an error when the OpenGL plugin is used. The D3D plugin works.
Only top left quarter of the screen can be seen when rendering to main window. The entire screen can be viewed when running in a window.

Advantages:
* Less confusion for users
* No need to build twice to make sure you didn't break something
* Easier to switch between the cores for testing
Disadvantages:
* None, as far as I can tell :) Maybe some extra code complexity, but not much.
Also break some include chains that caused <windows.h> to get included into everything, slowing down the build on Windows. There's more to do here though, there's still a lot of files that get it included that don't need it at all.

in opengl correct an error introduced by mi in efb to ram alignment, it's seems to fix SMS but it missalign a lot of other games, so revert to the default. must solve truncated coins in NSMB.
revert alpha testing values to the values in rev 4812 as they fix some games.
in d3d dynamized the Render target size so it will change at runtime when viewport exceed it size, in the worse case it will cause a missing frame when resizing but in the games I tested is not noticeable at all
This must solve all the remaining viewports problems in nvidia cards, in ati this is not needed.

in videocommon little fix for the alpha test values, return to the original values as they are more accurate.
in D3D:
huge change in state management, now all the state management is centralized and redundant state changes are eliminated.
Fixed the overlapped viewport error in non ati cards:
the error was caused by this: when a viewport is defined larger than the current rendertarget, an error is thrown and the last valid viewport is used, this is the reference behavior, in ati cards if a larger viewport is defined, no eror is returned, the rendering is valid and is rendered using the projection defined by the viewport but limited to the rendertarget are, exactly like opengl or the GC hardware.
to solve this in reference drivers defined a large rendertarget (2x the size of the original) and proceed to render in a centered quad insithe the larger rendertarget, in this way larger viewports always falls inside a valid rendertarget size, the drawback of this is the waste of resources. it can be dynamized, depending or games or changed at runtime when a oversized viewport is detected, but i live that to future commits.
please test this and let me know the results.

Removed the panic alert about HCI_CMD_INQUIRY because it doesn't crash Dolphin or anything like that...
It's called from MiiChannel, when you try to upload your Miis to a WiiMote.

2. Fixed a bug (for Win 32bit) that reports "No possible memory base pointer found!" even when there IS valid memory base found.
3. Made Metroid Prime 2 (maybe also other games) boot
PS: There is definitely some initialization problem with Dolphin (not found exact location yet), which prevents Metroid Prime 2 from first time booting (If you boot some other GC game first, stop it, then MP2 can boot without problem).
So I added an instant BP hack that can make MP2 boot even at first time.
And I've tested all my games to guarantee it won't break any game that already boots before this hack.

2. Fixed clear of VI interrupts

I tried the event approach but somehow the thread resume latency is excessively long (Who can tell me why?)

All you gotta do is Pause the emulation! That's useful for when your batteries run out during gameplay, for example...
But if you change the WiiMote source (between Emulated, Real or Inactive) you must disconnect and reconnect (Menu Tools -> Connect WiiMote) the WiiMotes affected by the change...
Thanks to jack.fr0st who did all the emulation state notification work!
Now every plugin has a way to know the current emulation state (paused, stopped or playing)
@ayuanx: I thought about doing a PostMessage(g_WiimoteInitialize.hWnd, WM_USER, WIIMOTE_DISCONNECT, current_number); so that the user gets asked to reconnect that WiiMote, trying to avoid having to disconnect and reconnect, but it didn't work because shooting that message only asks to reconnect, doesn't do a disconnect... Do you have any ideas on how to accomplish that?
Also, if anyone could check if Issue 1916 is finally fixed... Or at least when is the cursor being hidden or not...

Only downside: You can't change between Real and Emulated WiiMotes while the game is running anymore... This is due to the way the Real WiiMotes are assigned to the slots...
I've tested it with 2 real WiiMotes, but I can't see why it wouldn't work with 4!
Also, you can assign Real or Emulated WiiMotes to any one of the four slots that it will be respected!

This fixes on WiiMote Button Mapping:
Num /
Num *
Num Decimal
Num Separator
Num Lock
Right Alt -> But on keyboards that have "Alt Gr" keys it still gonnal report it as Left Ctrl, because when you press it, the OS sends a Left Ctrl then a Alt key...
Also fixes on SimplePad Button Mapping:
Num Decimal
Num Separator
Num Enter
Num Lock
Right Shift
Right Ctrl
Right Alt
Also it now differs Left (Ctrl|Shift|Alt) from the Right ones...

. Performance boost
(Completely non-blocking between Sound thread and CPU thread, in the meantime keeping them thread safe)
. Both 32KHz & 48KHz sound can be handled properly now
(But up-sampling is still not implemented, and I don't think any game requires it.)
. Strategy adjustment
When your PC is *NOT* capable to run the game at 100%:
>> DSound Could yield more fluent sound than OpenAL sometimes, but you will lose the sync between video & audio (since audio is played before video to guarantee fluency)
>> OpenAL Ensures video & audio are always sync'ed, but sound could be intermittent(to let slow video catch up)
. Changed default frame limit to: Auto
(Somehow this can dramatically decrease the chance of wiimote desync in game NSMB)

These fixes are able to get F-Zero GX in-game when JIT FloatingPoint is disabled. Once in-game, F-Zero retires the player just like it does in JIT.
