This release was a real pain since I had to rewrite a lot of stuff and wrestle with compiler due to upgrading QT/Mingw. Next version won't take so long and I'll look through this thread and my mail to try to fix more bugs and add features. If you find bugs etc. let me know! Meanwhile, enjoy!

Nice update. But the SIDplay engine really needs selectable filters. Play Lightfore (Rob Hubbard) SID (around 1:25-30) and you know what i mean. It doesn't sound right.

Blazer, great work as always.

Nice to have an updated version of my favorite tool.

Keep up!

[vulture]

Brilliant!

Blazer is a complete and exceptional Player, with the MP3 he has a crazy speed, thanks for the work done bLAZER.

Yes you are correct, listened to a recording from a real C64 on youtube. Any idea what emulator/library that handles it correctly?

[Retro-Nerd]

SidPlay/w plays it correctly. Of course all selectable filters sound a bit different but "Trurl6581R3_4885 ~Follin" is OK (some others too).

Am I being silly, but I saw mention that this can export music tracks as raw WAV - but I can't see *how* to actually do this anywhere?

Go to settings, change output device to WAV Writer and restart.

[bLAZER]

now plays Wonderswan .wsr

Thanks for the update!

Found a bug: right-click a song in the playlist, left-click in the player window between the seek and balance sliders, watch all the buttons and sliders disappear from the GUI.

I also found a .mod that causes the player to crash, I've sent you a link in PM.

[bLAZER]

Wow, good find! Will fix.

Thanks for the mod, I'll look into why it crashes.

[bLAZER]

mod.betrayal_delta is Delta Music 2-file. It's probably truncated. It crashes in flod but plays silently in uade. I'll try to fix so it doesn't crash.

SoundImages format:
Just a Bug report!?
It seems this issue appears only, if a SoundImages music with subsongs is loaded and played.
If i afterwards try to load another musics in any format the player crashes!

I am 10 years "late" with the acknowledgements, however I recently discovered this player which is great

The GUI is way better than DeliPlayer and it is possible to output WAV files for converting our beloved tunes for smartphones, tablets and car-players.

Just as an idea, for future releases would it be possible considering the Ron Klaren .rk format such as the ones from Master Blaster?

[bLAZER]

Ron Klaren should work. Not sure why it doesn't. I'll see if I can fix it.

Anyone with assembler skills? I could use some help porting asm code to c to create a v2m player. It's about 35 lines of code.

Here's an example:

__asm
{
	mov edi, [a_buffer]
	mov ecx, [a_len]
	shl ecx, 1
	xor eax, eax
	rep stosd
}
