Topic: XMPlay MIDI plugin

[Alex Mortar]

There seems to be a problem loading large soundfonts.

I think the problem is in soundfont. I use 1gb GM soundfont with absolute no problems

Using 19a. It crashes the moment it starts playing.  There seems to be a problem loading large soundfonts.

I don't seem to be able to reproduce that here even with a massive soundfont that doesn't fit in memory (the MIDI plugin only loads samples that are used), so please upload your XMPLAY.INI file to see what settings you're using. Also upload the MIDI file you're playing, if the problem doesn't happen with all files.

XMPlay informs about an update to the MIDI Plugin to version 19b but it can't be found anywhere

Check the "latest stuff" section at the very bottom of the XMPlay download page.

Hello again,

I recently got a new laptop with Windows 11.

Today I have been trying to configure XMPlay and it has been crashing fairly regularly.

Please advise on a solution.

Thank you!

Is there any message box shown to say a particular plugin and file is causing the crash? Anyway, to hopefully find out what's going wrong, please provide a dump file from the crash. You should find some in this folder in File Explorer:

   %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps

ZIP the dump file and upload it here:

   ftp.un4seen.com/incoming/

There is no dump file for today in that location. I just started trying to use the XMPlay today after switching to my laptop. There were no messages. XMPlay just disappeared.

I'd bet my antivirus is choking on some part of the XMPlay installation or plugin. I had it bypass xmplay.exe but I'll have it do so also for other parts of the xmplay installation.

Does the antivirus have a log that you can check to confirm? And does XMPlay work properly if you remove all plugins, ie. put the XMPLAY.EXE file alone in a folder?
