DyLucke Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Hello, is there any Atari 8 music player that would support SD Drive Nuxx? I mean, playing files directly from the SD instead having them stored into disk image files. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Philsan Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 It's not a problem of SDrive or other modern (and old) storage devices. AFAIK, SAP is a format for PC only. With storage devices you can play music on .atr and in .xex format too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+MrFish Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) I thought somebody made a SAP player that runs on the Atari at one point? The SAP files would still have to be inside of an ATR, even in that case though... Edited November 27, 2011 by MrFish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you are searching for something like this: http://epi.atari8.info/sapemu.php and a download here: http://epi.atari8.info/download.php (its sapemu-02.zip) However, this player-tool requires a min. of 128k RAM... Greetings, Andreas Koch. Edited November 28, 2011 by CharlieChaplin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 You may also convert SAP files to XEX using http://asap.sourceforge.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Philsan Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) Thank you Andreas and Piotr. What about quality? Tunes played by Sapemu or converted by ASAP have the same quality of native Atari tunes? EDIT Piotr, I have just tested your program and it seems awesome!

fox Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Thank you. sapemu and ASAP XEXs should play identically to the original tunes. Note there are many broken SAP files, which don't play on the Atari, some of them are also rejected by the new ASAP. These files will be fixed in the next release of ASMA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
