Found this in the Appworld tonight for $1.99. VERY cool! It actually pulls mods from some server somewhere...and apparently has around 76,000 of them. It downloads them in an instant (as they are quite small) and stores them locally on the PB. Plays awesomely! If you are a mod music fan (I come from the SID and then MOD era), you will certainly enjoy this!

This looks pretty neat. I've been meaning to try putting impulse tracker on dosbox tho...

is there any way getting old amiga-games on the pb?

[Smiley88]

Is this another crappy Android port or a PB native app?

Wish the developer would update the GUI and make it retro Amiga look like all other MOD players. Make it skinable would be awesome.

Brings back memories. Still have my A1000, A2000 and Tower in storage

I had a Commodore Vic 20 back in the day! But then I moved on to an Apple II. I guess you could say I used to be a Mac guy! LOL

Nope, it's an AIR app.
Yeah, I really need to update the UI, I know
If the app sells, that is

do you know if your app play thru BT to wireless speaker like the Bose?

[eblade]

Does Bluetooth on the PB work? I can't get it to connect to -anything- of mine.

This app makes me wish I could locate copies of all the old ScreamTracker stuff I used to do :|

I was a big Vic guy. I sold off a collection of Vic-20 carts that would have made your mind boggle. Around 200+ game carts I collected throughout the years. I wish now I never got rid of my collection. I loved the Friendly Computer

Sure, WinUAE for Playbook....when someone actually releases it that is

[canuckvoip]

VIC 20--->Commodore 64--->Amiga 1000--->Amiga 2000--->Amiga 4000/030--->Amiga 4000/060

Still got the 4000.

Sweet mercy! Finally a module player!

You rock!

Is there a way to manually move my mod collection into this?

[IceDigger]

Any plans on a position bar to move back and forth in the song?

[hpulley]

This is great! Well worth $1.99. I used to love MOD files, still do it seems.

Any thoughts on doing any of he later formats like XM?

[whizzkid74]

Once v1.3 gets approved in the appworld, you can also play local files.
v1.2 unfortunately has a bug so the 'local' tab doesn't work..

you can just copy any mod.* or *.mod files to your playbook and the modplayer will find them.

[hpulley]

1.2 just showed up recently but I'll grab 1.3 as soon as it shows up.

Unfortunately I am not sure I kept my mod file collection but I'll check. They must be on the net somewhere...

[hpulley]

Grabbed 1.3 this morning. Now just have to see if my old floppy disks of MOD files can still be read on old windows boxes with drives...

Edit: The downloaded list had been broken on 1.2 as well but it is fixed in 1.3, thanks.

[hpulley]

Also is there a way to create a playlist or at least play all downloaded mod files? Now it stops after one song played.

[whizzkid74]

Yeah, 1.2 was broken, some weirdness going on in the database that only happened in signed apps for some reason. So I didn't notice until 1.2 was released through the appWorld. Fixed it immediately, but then took a little while for RIM to review it again..

Anyway... playlist and other format are planned. but I'm currently working on a different project.

am hoping the sales will pick up a bit. so far only 28 purchases.
(and over 88 downloads on some warez site in 2 days time, before they took it down. of which I unfortunately saw no penny :S )
So I know there's a demand :P

[hpulley]

Bloody warez... So the no sideloading of appstore bar files isn't implemented yet?

[whizzkid74]

Not sure. there's been an OS update shortly after RIMS announcement, but i dont know if they implemented that..

Hi grabbed the lite version and this morning and want to buy the full version but it's giving an appworld error please when I click the link! Please help :-)

Yeah. Blackberry pulled the app from the appstore claiming it was a rom or gamessystem emulator. Which are forbidden.

I am trying to get them to put it back since that is clearly not the case.
Its simply a music player. No different from any other audio player. No roms or emulation are used.

If i get it back. Ill post it here

[damianiw]

That's crazy, hoping they sort it out for you as the lite version is great really wish I had purchased before they pulled it.

[MrNutt]

Oh for soundtracks on the PB
