gme-player.js

What is it? It's a music player in the browser. Or, it's yet another interface to Game Music Emu (to be precise, mpyne's fork) compiled with Emscripten.

What exactly does it play?

gme-player.js should support all formats that libgme supports, with the exception of compressed formats. Compressed formats, such as VGZ, depend on ZLib and are not supported for now.

Table copied from Game Music Emu's home page (watch out for broken links):

AY ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC
GBS Nintendo Game Boy
GYM Sega Genesis, Mega Drive
HES NEC TurboGrafx-16, PC Engine
KSS MSX Home Computer, other Z80 systems (doesn't support FM sound)
NSF, NSFE Nintendo NES, Famicom (with VRC 6, Namco 106, and FME-7 sound)
SAP Atari systems using POKEY sound chip
SPC Super Nintendo, Super Famicom
VGM, VGZ Sega Master System, Mark III, Sega Genesis, Mega Drive, BBC Micro

Also check out Famicompo mini.

Usage

The simplest way to see it in action is:

cd gme-player.js
make
# drop some game music files: .nsf, .nsfe, .spc, .vgm, etc
# add them to the list in index.html
python3 -m http.server

And then navigate to http://localhost:8000/.

gme-player.js is fully client-side, that's why you need to add files that are available server-side to index.html.

Hacking

recipe.sh has some tips on how to build Game Music Emu with Emscripten.

License

MIT.

Game Music Emu (and the bundled libgme* files) is LGPL.

TODO

Upgrade bundled libgme. 0.6.2 broke many NSFe files, fixed in master, let's wait for 0.6.3 then.

Support compressed formats (-DLIBTYPE=STATIC?).
