** EasyPlayer (EYP) 1.24 (30.6.2004)
EasyPlayer (EYP) is a user-friendly GUI for shell-based music player
programs such as MPEGA, GMPlay or SIDPLAY. Contrary to most similar
GUIs, it is not tied to one particular player program. EasyPlayer is
*one* GUI for *all* shell-based music players that exist or that are
still to come.
By its concept, EasyPlayer can also be an alternative for AmigaOS 4 or
MorphOS: Although it is 68k, music playing is delegated to the shell
programs, which of course may be PPC-native.
** New features in this version
* added new preferences option "Timeout" to set the timeout for
playing modules. Note: 1.24 cannot load prefs from older versions,
please create a new prefs file (it's only very few options anyway :)
The timeout is in seconds, and 0 means no timeout.
* playlists, preferences and interfaces now have disjoint version
numbers
* updated my snail mail address (postcards pretty please :)
** Old features of all versions
* all-in-one: provides one GUI for all shell-based music players.
Already supports MPEGA, GMPlay, SIDPLAY (and PlayTHX, OctaMEDPlayer,
ProTracker, ModPlay, EasyMOD, Clips).
* extensible: add support for any other shell-based music player in no
time
* easy-to-use: intuitive, multithreaded, font-sensitive and resizable
GUI, online-help and extensive keyboard support
* playlist: music modules can be comfortably arranged in a playlist
which can be shuffled, saved, loaded, appended etc.
** Requirements
* an Amiga running AmigaOS 2.04 (V37) or higher
* reqtools.library V38 or higher
* amigaguide.library V34 or higher (optional)
* some (shell-based) music player programs
