Does this have to be inserted into the ISO or can it be loaded with File Patch?

When exactly does the SD Loader begin to instruct the program to replace files?  Does it happen at boot time or just before the file is called?  I'm sure this isn't the best place to ask but this question has me curious now.

I like that Final Destination, but ts it possible to color the star black?

The strap info is located at /menu/strap/StrapEn.pac.

(From Rhythm Heaven) Remix-10
Suggested substitution: M02 "WarioWare, Inc. Medley"

Finally, a track that not only fits the stage, but loops properly the first time.

I'm told that it's a simple matter to use Y-splitters to direct the Wii's AV output to both the television and the capture card.  I suppose something like this could be used for just that purpose.

Is it possible then to hex-edit the header of a music file so I could modify the loop point manually without having to rebuild it?

Suggested substitution: B01 "Jungle Level Ver. 2"

I like how the original track doesn't loop very well.  It makes things a lot easier on me when I know that I can't foul up the loop point.

Co-op Event 21 fits this music strangely well somehow.

Studio Pixel - (From Cave Story) Running Hell
Suggested substitution: R02 "PictoChat"

I never understood how the PictoChat theme had any relation to the actual program it's based on.

I recently noticed that some of my songs do not loop properly in-game, but appear to loop perfectly in Winamp.  After a song would normally end, the song loops a fraction of a second earlier than I assigned, which bothers me enough to bring it up.  I followed the guide for the automatic tool to the letter, but neither mono nor stereo has an effect.  Short songs less than 40 seconds, like the pieces I use for the main menu, don't seem to be affected.  This issue appears on both disc and USB.  Is there something I'm missing?

My songs that bother me the most are Reach Out To The Truth, Eternity and Furiously.

Please do not rehost these without asking.  Then again, since it's being hosted by a friend of mine so you don't have to click more than once, why would you want to?  If you absolutely have to rehost it, at the very least try to find a direct link server and not one of those file upload sites.

Shoji Meguro - (From Persona 4) Reach Out To The Truth
Suggested substitution: W25 "Final Destination (Melee)"

The normal fight music.  Taken from the OST, disc 1, track 25.

NAMCO / CAPCOM Sound Team - (From Namco X Capcom) Arisu of the Wavering City
Suggested substitution: I06 "Devil's Call in Your Heart"

The theme of Reiji and Xiao Mu.

Yasunori Mitsuda - (From Xenosaga Episode I) Fighting KOS-MOS
Suggested substitution: H10 "Route 209", T03 "Opening (Super Smash Bros. Melee)"

You can never go wrong with a little Yasunori Mitsuda.  Never.

(From Mega Man 2) Dr. Wily's Fortress BGM
Suggested substitution: Q14 "Douchuumen"

No explanation needed.
Update 5/4/2009 02:05: Downmixed to mono.  It doesn't sound right at all in stereo.

(From Azumanga Daioh Character CD No.3 "Osaka-san") Time Pavement (Off Vocal)
Suggested substitution: N05 "The Roost"

This is a long one, running 4:15 from start to finish.  I couldn't find a way to loop it neatly so it repeats normally like Ai no Uta.  I can do one with vocals at request.

Shoji Meguro (Remix from CrombieTheZombie) - (From Persona 3) Dual Battle For Everyone's Souls
Suggested substitution: Y07 "Boss Battle Theme 2"

This is a composite of the penultimate battle theme "The Battle for Everyone's Souls" from the OST and the remix album "Reincarnation".  Obtained from this link.
Update 6/4/2009 19:06: Volume matched to -16dB.

Toshikazu Tanaka - (From Metal Slug 4) Furiously
Suggested substitution: A04 "Underground Theme (Super Mario Land)"

The BGM from mission 6.  One of my favorite tracks in the series; shame it was placed in one of the low points of the series.

Nobuo Uematsu with Ian Gillian - (From Blue Dragon) Eternity
Suggested substitution: D02 "Norfair"

Either the best or worst boss theme in history.  I first heard it in Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden in one of the first boss battles of that game.  I learned only recently that it came from a more well-known RPG and got only more confused.
Update 7/4/2009 12:27: Link reverted to V2.

Andrew Fenner - Folli the Foal
Suggested substitution: E06 "Wildlands"

From the album Production Music from Ren & Stimpy.  One of the happiest songs on earth, you may also have heard this song on Spongebob Squarepants or one of the Djy1991 productions.

Kukeiha Club - (From Snatcher) One Night In Neo Kobe City
Suggested substitution: K10 "You Call This a Utopia?!"

The theme song from the Sega CD version.  The loop is awkward but I couldn't think of any tricks to get it to repeat nicely.
Update 6/4/2009 19:00: Volume matched to -16dB.

6/4/2009 02:04
Kukeiha Club - (From Salamander 2) No Future
Suggested substitution: G09 "Star Wolf (Star Fox: Assault)"

An unused track.  For some reason the version from the game's sound test sounds different from the one in the OST.

(From Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3) Select
Suggested substitution: X03 "Menu 2"

Sometimes I play this game and stay on the menu screen for as long as possible to hear the whole loop.
Update 7/4/2009 11:50: Loop fixed.

Iwata Masaharu - (From DoDonPachi dai-ou-jou) Stage 1 (Arranged)
Suggested substitution: G11 "Area 6 Ver.2"

If you're bored one afternoon, try playing a shmup soundtrack while driving down the highway.

(From Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 3) Entry
Suggested substitution: W30 "Menu (Melee)", X09 "Tournament Registration"

Ditto this one.  Best used with the Select music from the same game above.
