Dang, so that was the reason of the entire site being down these days. I was beginning to worry and fear the worst case D: .
Let's hope you can at least recover something from the disks.

Linux Mint 13 (Ubuntu based) x86_64 running 3.8.0-26-generic. I have both JRE6 and JRE7 installed (just updated to the latest vers.)
Well, I've heard that in Linux Systems, when you have more than 1 JRE installed, you have to set one of them to be used by default. The "Unsupported major.minor version 51.0" means you're still using Java 6 when you are trying to open a Java 7 app.
You can specify which JRE to use through the console command alternatives --config java. Check the step 2 in this page for instructions: http://tecadmin.net/steps-to-install-java-on-centos-5-6-or-rhel-5-6 (it is for CentOS, but it should work for other Linux distributions too).

PC Players / NfmM MOD Player - New update!
« on: January 26, 2014, 05:02:23 »
NfmM MOD Player has been updated!
The version 2.2 is now up and includes the following changes:
- Added the option to search in The Mod Archive. Find any module from a repository with thousands! (Thanks a lot for the API key, it's safe in a web server which performs the requests between the search engine and the player). More options will be added in future releases to improve the results.
- The script format used in playlists has been changed to support local modules, modules from ModArchive and modules from Need for Madness Multiplayer in the same playlist. I'm keeping backwards compatibility with the previous format.
- Added the option to download a module being listened from The Mod Archive, or to save any other file as a module file or a module compressed into a zip. However, modules CANNOT be downloaded from NfmM, because the players haven't authorized such copies to be downloaded, and also several of them are from ModArchive.
- Minor interface and engine changes to work with the new features in a proper way.
To update your player, go to Info > Check for updates and when it shows the details about the new version, accept the download. The new version should be downloaded and installed automatically, restarting the player and opening the new version.
It can also be downloaded from here: http://dragshot.webcindario.com/software/modplayer.php

« on: January 20, 2014, 19:29:20 »Frankly, when you're already about to implement own effects, you may want to rewrite the whole thing in a sane way, without having to render the whole song in a static buffer. A MOD player is fairly simple to program.In that way it's relatively easy to skip between parts in the song and export it all into a .wav file quickly; but yeah, I'm looking for better mechanisms for the payback, mainly to save memory and stuff.
Duh, just noticed I posted this thread is the wrong section -_- (I missed the respective readme for this section and I didn't even find the proper section before posting the topic in first place). Could you move it into the Players section when you get some free time? Thanks a lot.

But I don't have Phyton D: .
Hmm... as you shared the script I guess I can improvise something identical in another language :3 .

PC Players / NfmM MOD Player - New update!
« on: December 17, 2013, 04:28:11 »
I've released a new version of the player. It comes with the new Look&Feel and also with support for 6 new effects: Bxx (position jump), E6 (row loop), E9 (note retrigger), EA (fine volume slide up), EB (fine volume slide down) and EC (note cut). I've raised the buffer size as much as I could without overloading the heap space to can render longer tracks.
Here it is a preview:
Now it shows the module format and the number of channels, plus some effects which aren't supported by the original engine it came from to warn the users about possible differences in playback between this player and the game.
To update the player from the version 2.0, go to Info > Check for updates and when it shows the details about the new version, accept the download. The new version should be downloaded and installed automatically, restarting the player and opening the new version. It also can be downloaded from the website: http://dragshot.webcindario.com/software/modplayer.php

I'm glad to see you posted your player here 
. I use JavaMod frequently, overall due to the mixing options it brings and the equalizer. Although the GUI uses high amounts of CPU clock (and it might show small halts during playback when applying a lot of effects and stuff), it's very good for standard audio playback when we're speaking about Java.
Nice job.

« on: December 13, 2013, 20:03:40 »Why limit it at all? There are mods well over the 10 minutes barrier.
The engine I use renders the song into an array of bytes. I've noticed this limited the time per song to 6:45, and some .mod songs I've listened reached 7:30. I'm trying to see how much I can extend such limit, seeing how does this affect the heap memory required and stuff (although I don't think it should be a lot).
Check e.g. the famous modfil11.txt or other documentation available at ModLand, though I didn't read through those documents, so cannot comment on their accuracy (which is a big problem with many documents about module formats).
Thank you
, it has exactly what I wanted to read.Or try to examine the code of IBXM(a mod player, plays MOD, S3M and XM; the sourcecode is included in the jar file)
IBXM: http://code.google.com/p/micromod/downloads/list
I'm trying luck with 2 engines, one of them resulted being way too confusing xD , but the other is more organized, so I can read its sources. I'll add this one too, thank you.
For the playback time limit, in the ModArchive there are modules with 1 hour lenght
try: http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=157663
I'll have that in count, but... you know, that isn't exactly a .mod file.
PS: "Wants more pie"? LOL, I love these ranks xD!
