uploaded control v30 which will shut itself and mqnplay down after play finished

v96 probably still best.

there is 20 bytes missed off the start of each track, haven't found a way round that yet.

uploaded play v103, think this the highest resolving version so far, just depends if you like the sound.

Nice to have it end by itself again, and agree v96 sounds wonderful.
Just listening to Gregory Porter - Hey Laura, great listening with the v96.

be interested what you think of v103, it's got perfect alignment in that there are no filler instructions to get the code aligned, more detail, but slightly less comfortable to listen to due to the instructions used. eg it uses lea rax, [rsi+rax] instead of mov rax, rsi, a 4 byte instruction instead of a 3 byte, thus there's no need for a 1 byte filler instruction.

Interesting. Been switching between v96 and v103 quite a few times.
V103 gets a more definite crispness to the sound. It's not 'ugly', its different, it takes a bit of getting used to. It's intriguing.
V96 is easier to like, more pleasant to the ear.
Hmm, could not immediately give a preference.

Will do some more listening.

play v104 is v96 without any alignment, maybe it doesn't need it.

v105 is v96 with optimal alignment for the io syscall, sounds ok.

v104 sounds attractive to start with, but compared to v96/v105 it's a bit of a mess, v96/v105 having better structure, space, timing etc

adolpho, your problem would require a 20ms version, so would have to join the queue.

v106 uses the intel recommended code for a 4 byte nop, sounds better than v105. Think this is probably as close as I can get to a transparent sound.

v105 sounds exceptional
only problem I find is with control v30 it doesn't close when music starts playing
it is suppose to be like that?
Thanks

try v106, that's my ultimate version.

yes control now closes when play stops and stops mqnplay as well.

something is stopping Mqnplay from closing when music stops on my setup
