Hi everyone :-)

New RuneAudio user here ! Thanks to everyone involved for this greeeeat piece of software !

As I'm not that young anymore, I'm used to listening to my classic Amiga Protracker files (.mod), which are supposedly supported by mpd. But it seems they cannot be played in RuneAudio.

Is there a solution to get them to play ?

Cheers !

Not natively, but by converting them to MP3 format, perhaps?

Hi ! Thanks for your reply ! Sure, I can convert them. Was just wondering as mpd apparently supports them. But I guess it raises issues like settings the artist / album tags that are generally not set properly in MODs.

I can try the "uade" filesystem (that mounts a modules directory - including hundreds of custom formats - and shows them as WAV files). There was no update since 2009 though !

Anyway, that's not really an issue, I'll convert them !
