Oh, oki. That is good to know, thanks!
I wonder if anyone has ever written a program which scans the audio registers once per scanline to "digitize" the Amiga audio output? Would be super practical to compare the output of two different players.

It was sad having to touch the replayer code, but I felt that it was an essential compromise because I've fixed probably all 128K sample bugs in the whole program (non-replayer stuff). [...]
Thanks again for the info, I will sharpen my google skills.

If that is any relief, I think it is perfectly reasonable to fix player bugs, I am not too sure why that caused you any sadness. If anyone likes the sound produced by the previously buggy version they can always use a player which exhibits the bug after all.
