Not recognized MED files with UADE/OS4

Posted: 2005-05-09 04:04

Hi,

I just installed the AmigaOS4 version of UADE and of all my MED files only one gets played, all the others fail with "unknown format".

The working MED starts with (HEX):

4D4D4431000038760000003400000000

The hex header of some non-working ones:

4D4D443100007BCA0000003400000000

4D4D4431000061EE0000003400000000

4D4D4431000062C60000003400000000

4D4D44310000CF5A0000003400000000

4D4D4431000041080000003400000000

4D4D443100002A020000003400000000

Some non-working OctaMED files:

4F4B5441534F4E47434D4F4400000008000100010001000153414D5000000480

4F4B5441534F4E47434D4F4400000008000000000000000053414D5000000480

Hopefully this helps finding out what to scan for in such files.

In the future, please tell us the version of program you are using.

Please send us or giveus URLs to example songs that show this behaviour. If you are going to paste us hexadumps in the future, please use a format that also displays ascii. Like hexdump -C:

Code:

00000000 4d 4d 44 30 00 01 87 8e 00 00 00 34 00 00 00 00 |MMD0.......4....|

hmmh

looks like old "MED"/pre-Octamed-MMD files... IIRC, they are not handled by the current replay yet.
