XMPlay is a Win32 (Windows 95/98/NT/2k/ME/XP/etc...) music player, supporting several audio formats.
Stream formats--------------
* OGG - Ogg Vorbis
* MP3 - MPEG1/2/2.5 layer 3
* MP2 - MPEG layer 2
* MP1 - MPEG layer 1
* WMA - Windows Media Audio
* WAV - any format that has a codec installed
These formats can not only be played from files located locally on a drive or LAN, but also from FTP/HTTP/Shoutcast/Icecast servers on the internet, optionally writing a copy to disk at the same time.
WMA playback requires the Windows Media Format modules to be installed. They come installed with Windows Media player, so will already be on most users' systems, but they can also be installed separately (WMFADIST.EXE is available at the XMPlay website). If these modules are not installed, XMPlay will still work fine, just without WMA support.
Module (MOD) formats -------------------- * MO3 - Modules with MP3 or OGG encoded samples
* IT - Impulse Tracker modules
* XM - FastTracker2 modules
* S3M - StreamTracker3 modules
* MTM - MultiTracker modules
* MOD - Generic module formats
* UMX - Unreal/Tournament music package
XMPlay's got the best (most accurate to FT2) XM reproduction to be heard from any player. All features/effects (including several FT2 quirks) are 100% supported. The IT reproduction is also practically balls-on, with full support for all effects/NNA/DCA/filters etc... MIDI out is also supported for XM files.
XMPlay also supports the MO3 format (modules with MP3 or OGG compressed samples) that was introduced in BASS 0.7. If you wish to create MO3s, then you should download the MO3 encoder from the XMPlay website (URL below).
