A: True, OS/2 doesn't support the DMA mode DMP uses to transfer data. Q: I have Internet mail access. How can I get new DMP most easily? A: By joining the DMP mailing list. Just send a message to listserv@oliver.sun.ac.za with following message body subscribe DMP-LIST Your Name After joining, you will receive new DMP releases right into your own mailbox. You also need uudecode utility to extract DMP. Q: The left and right channels are reversed on my SB Pro, but if I press 'F' or 'S' to switch filter/stereo, left and right channels sometimes switch places. A: Yes, this is a bug in the SB Pro hardware, but I'm working on to get the left and right channels go OK in the first place. There is nothing I could do about those filter/stereo switches. Q: I'm having troubles with my PAS16. The music is just plain static, what's going wrong? A: Problem here is that, for some odd reason, DMP transfers one single byte before actual music transfer starts, leading to noise, because the bytes are reversed in 16-bit data. This only happens with 8-bit DMA, so you should try 16-bit DMA channels 5,6 or 7. Q: EMS is great bu when are you going to add XMS support? A: To DMP, never! Accessing XMS from a real mode program is way too slow to use in an application like DMP. I will create a totally new player using Watcom C/C++, that will run in 386 protected mode and can access all the memory you have (like PMP).
