Well, of course TinySID is quite old and has problems with some SIDs. But I don't think I'm gonna fix bugs in the SID emulation ;-)
Umm.. there wouldn't be any way to fix this "endless loop" issue? Pretty annoying if you select a wrong .sid and are forced to reboot your machine. The hang happens if you just do OpenMusic() for a non-supported sid file... some way to detect it and continue with the program would be much nicer.

Yes, that should be possible to fix. I thought the OP was talking about playback issues which I definitely don't want to fix. But of course system freezes should be fixed...
