As far as my tin ears can tell, the sound quality is the same in each. I compared this to the latest versions of WMP 11, iTunes, and Creative MediaSource 5 Player, playing the same mp3 file right after startup and recorded the following: It's sitting solidly at CPU 0-7%/ 4,092 K RAM/ 7,328 K VM. I'm sitting in front of my computer grinning like an idiot - I've got Marillion's Kayleigh blasting out of XMPlay and it sounds GREAT - and I'm staring at XMPlay's resource usage in Task Manager. You don't see apps this complete and tiny often. Oh, and global shortcuts to boot, minizes to tray etc. All my config comes with me in case I put in in a thumbdrive.Īnd the sound quality is, to my ears, better than MM (BASS engine). It pops up immediately, vs 10 sec for MM. It uses 15 mb when playing stuff through the Ozone plugin (CPU intensive) and about 17% CPU. and all that using a few files in a folder, no registry at all, portable and super-compact. It supports all winamp plugins (for me the Ozone plugin is essential!). It has skins, and a library, for the same size of evilplayer.
it plays everything with a memory footprint of < 1mb. My idea of a tiny player was evilplayer: reduced in size, but feature poor.Įnter XMPlay. It'd be niice to have that functionality on a tiny, non-resource-hogging application. "I like mediamonkey, but it takes ~10sec to start, uses up ~60mb, and ~20% of the CPU while playing. XMPlay ( ) - Old School media formats player (MOD, XM, etc), and all current media formats.
