SIDPlayer currently only works as a command line application. It is invoked |
| 111 |
|
as follows: |
| 112 |
|
|
| 113 |
|
sidplayer FILE [song_number] |
| 117 |
|
SIDPlayer cannot detect when a song has finished, so you have to use Ctrl-C |
| 118 |
|
to quit it. |
| 119 |
|
|

SIDPlayer accepts a number of command line arguments. Type "sidplayer --help" |
| 121 |
+ |
to get a list. |
| 122 |

|
| 123 |
+ |
If you have a Catweasel MK3 PCI card with a SID chip installed you can |
| 124 |
+ |
redirect the output of SIDPlayer to the card by specifying the "--cwsid on" |
| 125 |
+ |
command line argument. Visit www.jschoenfeld.de for more information about |
| 126 |
+ |
the Catweasel card. |

|
------------------------------------ |
| 186 |
|
faster/slower buttons by slider, added popup menu and sound control |
| 187 |
|
window, ported to BeOS R5 with new Media Kit, implemented CIA timer |
| 188 |
|
speed control, and SIDPlayer can now also be used as a CL-Amp plugin |

in SDL version |

V4.3 - Added support for Catweasel SID hardware in SDL version (use option |

"--cwsid on"), CIA timer speed control now actually works |
| 196 |

V4.4 - Fixed a problem with the wrong replay routine being called when the |

IRQ vector was changed. Mastercomposer tunes (and probably others) |
| 198 |

not play correctly. [Thanks to Stefano Tognon.] |
