WAVEPLAYER.PRG/TTP are provided to demonstrate how
to use the DMA sound hardware of the STE and TT
computers.
The source code provided is not public domain. It
has been provided to allow you to understand how a
Microsoft Corporation WAVE file is defined and what
is needed to play these files on Atari computers.
You may incorporate parts of this code in your own
programs providing you acknowledge the source of
those routines via either 1) a comment at the
beginning of the module that contains the code, or
2) an acknowledgement displayed at startup.
To use WAVEPLAYER place it in the desired directory,
select WAVEPLAYER.PRG. Next select INSTALL APPLICATION
from the desktop Options menu. Set the file extender
to WAV, and select OK.
Alternately you may supply a file name as the first
argument on a command line. Or you may run WAVEPLAYER
without any arguments, which will cause WAVEPLAYER to
accept the filenames from standard input. This allows
the following under the Mark Williams Shell:
ls *.wav | waveplayer
WAVEPLAYER does not understand wildcard characters in
file names. So the following will produce undesired
results:
waveplayer *.wav
Caveats:
Waveplayer has not been tested with 8 bit stereo wave files.
Waveplayer has not been tested with 16 bit stereo wave files.
Waveplayer will work with MiNT and Multi-TOS but multi-tasking
is suspended while PLAYING (not reading, or resampling) a WAVe
sample.
If you come across a WAVE file with one of these formats and it
does work please let me know.
Support:
If you come across a WAVE file that does not work and it
is on either GEnie or COMPUSERVE please mail the name of the
file and the roundtable I can retrieve it from. If the file
is one of your own please uuencode the file and mail it to
me at either:
B.GRIER on GEnie
bjgrier@bnr.ca on internet
