XM Player

XM7Play is a simple XM player for the DS. The new update fixes the problems that occurred after the application failed to load an XM module.

There were errors that were blocking the program after failures in loading a module. Now you're able to resume and choose another tune.
No other changes.

Hmmm... libmikmod could play XM, but most XMs didn't work, probably because the DS couldn't handle it.
So is this more optimized than libmikmod aka it will play XMs properly?
Might be useful in game development.

It's limited to 16 instruments and a max filesize of 2MB.

Correction: It's limited to 16 channels and not 16 instruments.

Makes sense. The DS has 4MB of RAM iirc, so half of it is program data, half is XM data.
And maybe 16 instruments = from onboard audio support. This part idk.

Like XM Satellite radio? 'Cuz since they merged with sirius or vice versa all the stations now have DJs and commercials, the MAIN REASON for getting satellite radio. They both suck now.

No, XM as a music format:

XM (file format)

Hi! Some details that may be useful:
1 - Plays XMs up to 16 channels.
2 - Can play XMs that can fit in RAM. We have 4MB main memory but some of them are used by the program... but there's no 2MB max filesize hard limit.

Might be useful in game development.

libxm7 was born with that in mind. xm7play is just a tool to 'preview' your tunes with the libxm7 engine.

Feedback appreciated!

p.s. : @ Minox_IX: from which emulator did you capture the screenshot?

I used iDeaS 1.0.2.8 and dldi patched the .nds file with the R4 v2.dldi and then configured the emulator to use R4 dldi files. Quite simple really.
