The mixer can currently load Microsoft WAVE files and Creative Labs VOC
|
|
slouken@91
|
16 |
files as audio samples, and can load MIDI files via Timidity and the
|
|
slouken@147
|
17 |
following music formats via MikMod: .MOD .S3M .IT .XM. It can load
|
|
slouken@353
|
18 |
Ogg Vorbis streams as music if built with Ogg Vorbis or Tremor libraries,
|
|
slouken@147
|
19 |
and finally it can load MP3 music using the SMPEG library.

Tremor decoding is disabled by default, you can enable it by passing
|
|
slouken@353
|
22 |
--enable-music-ogg-tremor
|
|
slouken@353
|
23 |
to configure, or by defining OGG_MUSIC and OGG_USE_TREMOR.

The process of mixing MIDI files to wave output is very CPU intensive,
|
|
slouken@0
|
26 |
so if playing regular WAVE files sound great, but playing MIDI files
|
|
slouken@0
|
27 |
sound choppy, try using 8-bit audio, mono audio, or lower frequencies.
