- Short: Multi-Format Sampled Sound Player
-
- TITLE
- OmniPlay - A multi-format sound player for AmigaDOS
-
- VERSION
- 1.10, 26 Sept 1992
-
- DESCRIPTION
- OmniPlay plays samples sounds from a variety of sound file
- formats, including IFF (8svx and aiff), WAV, VOC, .au, .snd,
- and 8-bit raw (signed, unsigned, u-law). In addition,
- PowerPacked sounds can be played if you have v34+ of
- powerpacker.library installed.
-
- OmniPlay determines the type of sound it's dealing with
- automagically, so the minimum command is "oplay somesound".
- This works on *any* file, although raw files might sound
- better if you specify a rate.
-
- Options control rate, volume, output audio channel, wait-time
- between sounds, process priority, printing of sound properties
- (such as IFF NAME, AUTH, etc.), and more. Options are
- sequenced, not pre-scanned, so two files can have different
- option sets.
-
- REQUIREMENTS
- A sampled sound file. If you wish to PowerPack sounds, you
- should have powerpacker.library (not included) in your libs:
- directory.
-
- CHANGES
- (since v0.98)
- - fixed playroutine bug that caused sounds with large buffers
- to be prematurely terminated
- - "-o" option allows full loading of sounds before playback
- begins
- - "-a" allows amplification by integral values so sounds
- sampled at low gain can be heard
