IFF-8SVX Config:
The IFF-8SVX player works by loading a sample bit by bit (buffer by
buffer) and play it. As user you can define how big each buffer should
be and how much memory that should be used at maximum.
Load buffer size in Kb: The size of each load buffer. Please note that if
you want a buffer size of e.g. 64 Kb and you try to load a 20 Kb sample,
then the player will allocate a 64 Kb buffer. That is, no matter how
small or large your sample is, only whole buffers will be allocated. e.g.
a 75 Kb sample will need for instance two 64 Kb buffers.
Note1: If you play stereo samples the buffer size will be doubled.
Note2: Fibonacci packed samples will use an extra buffer, sized half of
the load buffer size, for depacking.
Max memory to use in Kb: The maximum amount of memory to be used for load
buffers. This number should at least be six times the size of the load
buffer size (because of double buffering and stereo). If you haven't got
enough free memory to allocate 6 times the size of the load buffer, the
playback of the sample can get corrupted.
Obs: If your harddisk have problems keeping up with loading the sample
buffers, it might help to increase the buffer size.
Play only once: This will tell APlayer only to play the sample once, no
matter how big it is.
