$VER: Players.eng V2.27 (15.09.1996)
Copyright 1996 by Delirium Softdesign
(Peter Kunath and Frank Riffel)
In this document file are all players listed that are officially released
or supported by Delirium Softdesign.
1. SOME WORDS
All players from us are adapted and tested with care. If problems arise
from our adaptions we will fix them till the next release if possible. For
this we will need some informations about your system (type, processor,
memory, kickstart) and a precise description of the fault. In addition we
must know which version of DeliTracker was used, which player and/or
module(s) caused the fault.
If you have removed a bug or improved a player we would be pleased if you
send this player to us. If you have adapted a completely new player it
would be nice if you send us the player (perhaps with source) and some
modules for this player. Please remark if we can include the player in
the next distribution. We can not make any warranties for modules that
include the replay routine. If you send me routines please include some
modules for testing. Any other routines are welcome too.
We can not make any warranties for modules that include their replayroutine.

IFF-8SVX Don't pack the samples. Loads samples while playing.
Has a GUI for some memory settings. Hint: The normal
audio DMA can playback samples with frequencies up
to 28 kHz. If you want to play samples with a higher
samplingrate make sure to have a productivity screen
in the foreground. This is because in the current
hardware, the audio DMA is coupled with the scanrate.
The hardware can output two samples per scanline.
In standard video mode, this results in a maximum
output rate of 2 x 15kHz = 30 kHz. In productivity
the scanrate is doubled so the maximum output rate
raises to ~60 kHz.

path.
