OS/2-MMPM/2-driver for MikMod (by Stefan Tibus)
This package contains the original MikMod 2.09b-package along with the
sources of my OS/2-MMPM/2-driver. As the driver uses MCI-function calls it
should work on any sound-card supported by OS/2 (It was tested on Creative
Labs SoundBlaster 16 and Turtle Beach Systems Tropez/Tropez Plus soundcards).
This package contains nine files:
README.TXT - this file
MIKM209B.ZIP - the original MikMod-package
MPLAY2T.EXE - a compiled version of MikMod using my OS/2-drivers
MIKMOD.C
MIKMOD.H
MTYPES.H - MikMod-sources I had to do some minor changes on
You may use these files directly in addition to the original
MikMod-sources or if you already have another (newer) version
of MikMod look for the changes I marked with:
"/* OS/2-support (added by S.T.) */".
The changes I did were to include the OS/2-driver and the
OS/2-header files and minor changes to the type-definitions in
MTYPES.H.
DRV_OS22.C - The latest version of my OS/2-driver. It uses a 512kB buffer
consisting of two blocks 256kB-blocks which are updated in
32kB-blocks (MikMod cannot update blocks >64kB).
DRV_OS21.C - This was my first version of the driver. It uses a 64kB
double-buffer.
Also the source contains german comments only (sorry but I did
not think of distribution at that time).
- I included this one because it works more real-time, the new
version with the 512kB-buffer is always a bit late, when
starting to play or switching to another MOD-file, because
there still is one 256kB-half currently playing the old music...
- Well, both versions of the driver are still in Beta-state and
their as buggy too :-( though they're quite useable.
