I just checked the changelog on the protocol you posted in the plugin thread, and I guess this would be the relevant entry:

Documentation changed to indicate relaxation of spam checking to better support portable media players.

It's possible, but I remember that when I started xmp-scrobbler development I once got a lot of these "spam trigger" messages because my code submitted several songs in short time period. I don't know how this relates to being able to submit tracks "from the past", but I'll definitely check that out soon.

My list of suggested Support Site improvements:
  • First start and Output options panel: some new screenshots (because of the larger eaqualizer).
  • Informational section: 'double-click to make any visual go full-screen'.
  • Understanding the options: new pages: Appearance, Library (folder monitoring), Output (with various output plugins), and the screenshots need some updating to cover rearrangements on various pages.
  • External encoders: 'STDIN means - instead of %i', perhaps add a recommended setting for LAME (lame - %o --preset standard) and a hint to use 'lame --help' if one wants to know more options.
  • A large button linking to the forum on the main page, redirecting questions from the comments to the forum.
  • Ian edited the MSN-plugin to work with the new DSP interface, and Cris made a plugin for HyperIM, link here. (Other Addons)
  • External Encoders: current LAME version is 3.70, Ogg Vorbis is also updated, but I recommend oggenc2 (or oggenc2-lancer with a faster pc). Perhaps a link to RareWares?
  • Link to forum search under the Support Site search box?
Although Ian doesn't bloat XMPlay, he surely added a lot of options since the last major revision of the Support Site. I don't expect the Support Site to cover all of them, but I guess Folder Monitoring and Output Plugins are quite essential for the latest version.

But you should know I'm still a happy user of the Support Site Smiley. Most articles still match with XMPlay, and there's no other place with so many screenshots and clear guides on how XMPlay works (the manual is a little harder to understand). But first things first: good luck with your thesis and exam! Grin

Wow, thanks, Dotpitch.

Note to myself: add a distribution notice for computer magazine publishers to the contact page.

 Smiley  I am writing you from Argentina, where I live. I want to thank you for your XMPlay program, which Iīm using since its version # 2. I saw it growing up and improve version after version, reaching an outstanding degree of excellence, far away from programs of the same kind. I use it not just as Player but also as Ripper, associated with Lame program. I would like to ask you for something, if it is possible: after executing Play or Ripper, to have an option of "Shut down the PC when DONE". If this is not possible, thatīs fine, your program can not be improved!! Sorry for my english, obviously, is not my native language...Kind regards,Raul.

Unfortunately that's not currently possible. It (Exit XMPlay/Shutdown etc.. after finished task X) has been suggested as a feature for upcoming versions of XMPlay, though.

Can you open the with the 'Open file'-dialog, or add them to playlist, instead of drag'n'dropping? In Options and stuff > Playlist, is 'Verify file content' checked, and are xm and it not on your ignore list? Can you give an example of or a link to a file that is not working?

I was trying to add file witch "open-file" but its do nothing. On ignore list i have only mpg and avi. I unchecked the verify file content and now are appear (songs name) but its red line crossed and can't be played. There is a link to some modules which i can't play.

Those are not plain modules, but zipped modules... You should decompress them or use the ZIP plugin  (be sure to check 'Verify file content').

Downloaded them all, unrar'd into a folder, drag'n'dropped into playlist. All play without a single flaw.
Also, is this REALLY the right thread for this? Is this offering suggestions or comments for the Support site? Grin

ehm, I tryied your "unplayable" mods, but here they jusp play fine here. XMPlay doesn't fail Smiley, played all directly from the rar archive. So thim makes me think you may have an old archive plugin. hope that helps.

The RAR-archive you uploaded contains .xm, .s3m, .it and .mod, and those are actually zipped modules, so they've got the wrong extension.

Hi
I don't know if it is the best thread to post it ?
I have several mp3 and wav files not loading in Xmplay.
Maybe it is because they are more than 44/16 ?
Does XmPlay support higher bit & sample rates ?
If the issue is not the bit/samplerate, it may be a codec issue ? How to know which codec was used to encodee a file and how to know if Xmplay will read it ?
Thank you !

XMPlay supports sampling frequencies and bit depths up to 96kHz/32bit. Maybe you should upload some examples of the troublesome files to

ftp.un4seen.com/incoming/

for Ian to take a look at.

The title of this thread should be changed - it seems some newcomers to the forum understandably take it to mean that this is the place to request support with player issues.

The title of this thread is "XMPlay Support site". Meaning it's about a website named "XMPlay Support". People really should learn to read before posting. <_<
