great this libmodplug !
I'm on a project of a plugin playing many exotic formats (like deli) for an MMB appli (using SC68 68x emulator). But I have some problems with formats like MED, TFMX, etc...
do you think about a dll/static lib to use from a plugin for example ?

bLAZER 14 April 2008 14:52

I have also thought about using a 68k emu do play more exotic amiga formats. sc68 emulator only plays it's own .sc68-files AFAIK though... What's a MMB application? And I don't understand your question...

Shoonay 14 April 2008 15:04

Thanks, works pretty fine (for the very 1st version ;)) on me Vista x64 here, bLAZEy!

PS: Don't mind Ironclaw, the scanlines he's frequently using had completely messed with his point of view. :cheese

MazinKaesar 14 April 2008 15:30

I still use modplug player ... O_o

Multimedia Builder (using Fmod by default)
you use codec *.dll . About "dll/static lib for a plugin", will it be possible to use one of these codec_format.dll from a personal program () ?

bLAZER 14 April 2008 18:31

the dll's can be used in any program that uses fmod.

bLAZER 14 April 2008 18:52

Behold, a new version it out!

New features:

Drag and drop files
Reverb
Normalizer
Set default sound length for sounds with unknown length
Remembers windows size and position
Current sound is green in playlist
Settings dialog (and all settings are saved)
Click on time switches between elapsed and remaining time
Changed font of the time since it wasn't a standard font for Windows

Bug fixes:

vgz-files didn't work

Get it here

OddbOd 14 April 2008 20:37

A few immediately obvious things:

- Please add song loading from command-line.

- Output level (green bar) is not reset to zero when stop button is pressed.

- Seekbar only responds to handle dragging, clicking on it does nothing.

- DSM files do not play correctly and can crash the player, not your fault, all modplug based players/plugins fail on these files. Example files.

- The playback speed control doesn't work properly e.g. while a song is playing drag the slider knob up, now, while keeping the mouse button depressed, drag the mouse pointer past the upper edge of the player window. The slider will snap back to 100% but the player will play at the wrong speed.

bLAZER 14 April 2008 21:22

Thanks for the suggestions.

Yeah, if a song format isnn't played accurately it isn't really much to do about it since I use a library to play each format (unless that library has been updated).

The last thing isn't really a major problem, that's not really normal behaviour, is it? :)

bLAZER 14 April 2008 22:25

Actually I can't reproduce that last thing. When it snaps back to 100% my sound also snaps back too 100%

Shoonay 14 April 2008 22:31

Cool, I like the way [Normalize] pumpsup the volume on those quiet SIDs! :bowdown
Oh, BTW, how to change sub-tunes in SIDs?

bLAZER 14 April 2008 22:39

At the moment.. you can't :(
In next version you will be able to somewhat primitive at least.

Shoonay 14 April 2008 22:48

I'd also like a "fixed" main window size, so the user would not be able to freely resize it.
Also, just a thought... could you associate the proggie with the AC3Filter so the sound would fill all the 5.1 speakers?

---=== EDITED ===---
Cancel that last one, I forgot Viśta does it automatically as long as the output sound is at least in stereo ;)

bLAZER 16 April 2008 22:58

continue your effort, good job:great
this is strange, always when somebody want to make something new there is always a guy to try to discourage him.If you don't like something just ignore it but what is the goal to critic it so negatively, with that kind of reaction, no future innovations. an application can't play all format in its first realease and then what ? The last update show that the supported formats will grow.
once again thank you blazer, ignore destructive comments.

nothing personnal ironclaw but this kind of thing happen to many time on eab with other guys than you.
You can give your point of view but try to do it softly next time, don't destroy a new project directly. You don't like it ok but wait to see later improvement before critic perhaps in some years you will prefer this one.
peace ;)
by the way funny post :great
ps: :great my preferred player is winamp too :great but i don't want compare a player which are on pc for many years to a new one.
exemple windows 95 was a bad os and now.... it still a bad and slow os (bad exemple).:lol

bLAZER 18 April 2008 17:08

Shoonay 18 April 2008 17:20

1. Speaker filling is now "broken", all SID's and MP3's I've tested only play in right front and left front channels. :(

2. MP3's with international signs in names are ignored. Try my Marek Biliński post ;)
