--------------- MEDPlayer V2.10 instructions - Teijo Kinnunen 2.7.1990 ---
MEDPlayer is a program, which you can use to play MED songs without MED.
You can use it from Workbench or CLI.
MEDPlayer V2.10 can load MED V2.10 sng+samples-format and MMD0-modules.
It can't load MED V2.10 songs or files created with previous versions
of MED. Why?? Because I think it is more important that MEDPlayer is
as compact and quick as possible instead of the ability to load millions
of file formats. You can convert older files by loading them to MED V2.10
and saving them back again.
There are two versions of MEDPlayer: MEDPlayer2.10 and MEDPlayer2.10m.
MEDPlayer2.10m can play both Amiga and MIDI sounds.
MEDPlayer2.10 is for songs that use only Amiga samples (no MIDI). Don't
try to use it for playing MIDI songs (if you try -> CRASH). If you're
not sure if the song uses MIDI, use 2.10m.
And now, the usage:
CLI:
medplayer <song>
<song> is optional. If not specified, MEDPlayer window
appears and waits for your interaction. If <song> is
present, then the song is loaded. If it loaded OK,
then the playing will start. Press Ctrl-C to quit.
WB:
Double-click the icon. You can also set the "Default tool"-field
of the .info file (default is "MEDPlayer"). MEDPlayer opens in
the interactive mode when started from WB.
The window:
If you started MEDPlayer in the interactive mode, the window
appears. Type in the name of the song/module. Then click
Return to load it. "Play" starts playing, "Cont" continues it,
"Stop" stops. Quit with the close gadget. You can load another
song by entering a new name to the string gadget.
