Libxmp is a module player library supporting many mainstream and obscure module formats including Protracker MOD, Scream Tracker III S3M and Impulse Tracker IT. Libxmp loads the module and renders the sound as linear PCM samples in a buffer at rate and format specified by the user, one frame at a time (standard modules usually play at 50 frames per second).
Possible applications for libxmp include stand-alone module players, module player plugins for other players, module information extractors, background music replayers for games and other applications, module-to-mp3 renderers, etc.
This example loads a module, plays it at 44.1kHz and writes it to a raw sound file:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <xmp.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
xmp_context c;
struct xmp_frame_info mi;
FILE *f;
/* The output raw file */
f = fopen("out.raw", "wb");
if (f == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "can't open output file\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
/* Create the player context */
c = xmp_create_context();
/* Load our module */
if (xmp_load_module(c, argv[1]) != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "can't load module\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
/* Play the module */
xmp_start_player(c, 44100, 0);
while (xmp_play_frame(c) == 0) {
xmp_get_frame_info(c, &mi);
if (mi.loop_count > 0) /* exit before looping */
break;
fwrite(mi.buffer, mi.buffer_size, 1, f); /* write audio data */
}
xmp_end_player(c);
xmp_release_module(c); /* unload module */
xmp_free_context(c); /* destroy the player context */
fclose(f);
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
A player context can load and play a single module at a time. Multiple contexts can be defined if needed.
Use xmp_test_module() to check if the file is a valid module and retrieve the module name and type. Use xmp_load_module() to load the module to memory. These two calls return 0 on success or <0 in case of error. Error codes are:
-XMP_ERROR_INTERNAL /* Internal error */ -XMP_ERROR_FORMAT /* Unsupported module format */ -XMP_ERROR_LOAD /* Error loading file */ -XMP_ERROR_DEPACK /* Error depacking file */ -XMP_ERROR_SYSTEM /* System error */ -XMP_ERROR_STATE /* Incorrect player state */
If a system error occurs, the specific error is set in errno.
Parameters to xmp_start_player() are the sampling rate (up to 48kHz) and a bitmapped integer holding one or more of the following mixer flags:
XMP_MIX_8BIT /* Mix to 8-bit instead of 16 */ XMP_MIX_UNSIGNED /* Mix to unsigned samples */ XMP_MIX_MONO /* Mix to mono instead of stereo */ XMP_MIX_NEAREST /* Mix using nearest neighbor interpolation */ XMP_MIX_NOFILTER /* Disable lowpass filter */
After xmp_start_player() is called, each call to xmp_play_frame() will render an audio frame. Call xmp_get_frame_info() to retrieve the buffer address and size. xmp_play_frame() returns 0 on success or -1 if replay should stop.
Use xmp_end_player(), xmp_release_module() and xmp_free_context() to release memory and end replay.
To use libxmp with SDL, just provide a callback function that renders module data. The module will play when SDL_PauseAudio(0) is called:
#include <SDL/SDL.h>
#include <xmp.h>
static void fill_audio(void *udata, unsigned char *stream, int len)
{
xmp_play_buffer(udata, stream, len, 0);
}
int sound_init(xmp_context ctx, int sampling_rate, int channels)
{
SDL_AudioSpec a;
a.freq = sampling_rate;
a.format = (AUDIO_S16);
a.channels = channels;
a.samples = 2048;
a.callback = fill_audio;
a.userdata = ctx;
if (SDL_OpenAudio(&a, NULL) < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", SDL_GetError());
return -1;
}
}
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
xmp_context ctx;
if ((ctx = xmp_create_context()) == NULL)
return 1;
sound_init(ctx, 44100, 2);
xmp_load_module(ctx, argv[1]);
xmp_start_player(ctx, 44100, 0);
SDL_PauseAudio(0);
sleep(10); // Do something important here
SDL_PauseAudio(1);
xmp_end_player(ctx);
xmp_release_module(ctx);
xmp_free_context(ctx);
SDL_CloseAudio();
return 0;
}
SDL callbacks run in a separate thread, so don't forget to protect sections that manipulate module data with SDL_LockAudio() and SDL_UnlockAudio().

- Parameters:
c: the player context handle.
Retrieve current module data.
- Parameters:
c: the player context handle.
info: pointer to structure containing the module data. struct xmp_module_info is defined as follows:
struct xmp_module_info { unsigned char md5[16]; /* MD5 message digest */ int vol_base; /* Volume scale */ struct xmp_module *mod; /* Pointer to module data */ char *comment; /* Comment text, if any */ int num_sequences; /* Number of valid sequences */ struct xmp_sequence *seq_data; /* Pointer to sequence data */ };Detailed module data is exposed in the mod field:

Start playing the currently loaded module.
- Parameters:
c: the player context handle.
rate: the sampling rate to use, in Hz (typically 44100). Valid values range from 8kHz to 48kHz.
flags: bitmapped configurable player flags, one or more of the following:
XMP_FORMAT_8BIT /* Mix to 8-bit instead of 16 */ XMP_FORMAT_UNSIGNED /* Mix to unsigned samples */ XMP_FORMAT_MONO /* Mix to mono instead of stereo */- Returns:
- 0 if sucessful, or a negative error code in case of error. Error codes can be -XMP_ERROR_INTERNAL in case of a internal player error, -XMP_ERROR_INVALID if the sampling rate is invalid, or -XMP_ERROR_SYSTEM in case of system error (the system error code is set in errno).
Play one frame of the module. Modules usually play at 50 frames per second. Use xmp_get_frame_info() to retrieve the buffer containing audio data.
- Parameters:
c: the player context handle. - Returns:
- 0 if sucessful, -XMP_END if the module ended or was stopped, or -XMP_ERROR_STATE if the player is not in playing state.
[Added in libxmp 4.1] Fill the buffer with PCM data up to the specified size. This is a convenience function that calls xmp_play_frame() internally to fill the user-supplied buffer. Don't call both xmp_play_frame() and xmp_play_buffer() in the same replay loop. If you don't need equally sized data chunks, xmp_play_frame() may result in better performance. Also note that silence is added at the end of a buffer if the module ends and no loop is to be performed.
- Parameters:
c: the player context handle. buffer: the buffer to fill with PCM data, or NULL to reset the internal state. size: the buffer size in bytes. loop: stop replay when the loop counter reaches the specified value, or 0 to disable loop checking. - Returns:
- 0 if sucessful, -XMP_END if module was stopped or the loop counter was reached, or -XMP_ERROR_STATE if the player is not in playing state.
Retrieve the current frame data.
- Parameters:
c: the player context handle.
info: pointer to structure containing current frame data. struct xmp_frame_info is defined as follows:
struct xmp_frame_info { /* Current frame information */ int pos; /* Current position */ int pattern; /* Current pattern */ int row; /* Current row in pattern */ int num_rows; /* Number of rows in current pattern */ int frame; /* Current frame */ int speed; /* Current replay speed */ int bpm; /* Current bpm */ int time; /* Current module time in ms */ int total_time; /* Estimated replay time in ms*/ int frame_time; /* Frame replay time in us */ void *buffer; /* Pointer to sound buffer */ int buffer_size; /* Used buffer size */ int total_size; /* Total buffer size */ int volume; /* Current master volume */ int loop_count; /* Loop counter */ int virt_channels; /* Number of virtual channels */ int virt_used; /* Used virtual channels */ int sequence; /* Current sequence */ struct xmp_channel_info { /* Current channel information */ unsigned int period; /* Sample period */ unsigned int position; /* Sample position */ short pitchbend; /* Linear bend from base note*/ unsigned char note; /* Current base note number */ unsigned char instrument; /* Current instrument number */ unsigned char sample; /* Current sample number */ unsigned char volume; /* Current volume */ unsigned char pan; /* Current stereo pan */ unsigned char reserved; /* Reserved */ struct xmp_event event; /* Current track event */ } channel_info[XMP_MAX_CHANNELS]; };This function should be used to retrieve sound buffer data after xmp_play_frame() is called. Fields buffer and buffer_size contain the pointer to the sound buffer PCM data and its size. The buffer size will be no larger than XMP_MAX_FRAMESIZE.

Valid values:
Amplification factor: ranges from 0 to 3. Default value is 1.
Stereo mixing: percentual left/right channel separation. Default is 70.
Interpolation type: can be one of the following values:
XMP_INTERP_NEAREST /* Nearest neighbor */ XMP_INTERP_LINEAR /* Linear (default) */ XMP_INTERP_SPLINE /* Cubic spline */DSP effects flags: enable or disable DSP effects. Valid effects are:

[Added in libxmp 4.1] Sample control: Valid values are:
XMP_SMPCTL_SKIP /* Don't load samples */Disabling sample loading when loading a module allows allows computation of module duration without decompressing and loading large sample data, and is useful when duration information is needed for a module that won't be played immediately.
[Added in libxmp 4.2] Player volumes: Set the player master volume or the external sample mixer master volume. Valid values are 0 to 100.
[Added in libxmp 4.3] Default pan separation: percentual left/right pan separation in formats with only left and right channels. Default is 100%.
[Added in libxmp 4.4] Player personality: The player can be forced to emulate a specific tracker in cases where the module relies on a format quirk and tracker detection fails. Valid modes are:
XMP_MODE_AUTO /* Autodetect mode (default) */ XMP_MODE_MOD /* Play as a generic MOD player */ XMP_MODE_NOISETRACKER /* Play using Noisetracker quirks */ XMP_MODE_PROTRACKER /* Play using Protracker 1/2 quirks */ XMP_MODE_S3M /* Play as a generic S3M player */ XMP_MODE_ST3 /* Play using ST3 bug emulation */ XMP_MODE_ST3GUS /* Play using ST3+GUS quirks */ XMP_MODE_XM /* Play as a generic XM player */ XMP_MODE_FT2 /* Play using FT2 bug emulation */ XMP_MODE_IT /* Play using IT quirks */ XMP_MODE_ITSMP /* Play using IT sample mode quirks */By default, formats similar to S3M such as PTM or IMF will use S3M replayer (without Scream Tracker 3 quirks/bug emulation), and formats similar to XM such as RTM and MDL will use the XM replayer (without FT2 quirks/bug emulation).
Multichannel MOD files will use the XM replayer, and Scream Tracker 3 MOD files will use S3M replayer with ST3 quirks. S3M files will use the most appropriate replayer according to the tracker used to create the file, and enable Scream Tracker 3 quirks and bugs only if created using ST3. XM files will be played with FT2 bugs and quirks only if created using Fast Tracker II.
Modules created with OpenMPT will be played with all bugs and quirks of the original trackers.
[Added in libxmp 4.4] Maximum number of mixer voices: the maximum number of virtual channels that can be used to play the module. If set too high, modules with voice leaks can cause excessive CPU usage. Default is 128.
- Returns:
- 0 if parameter was correctly set, -XMP_ERROR_INVALID if parameter or values are out of the valid ranges, or -XMP_ERROR_STATE if the player is not in playing state.
Libxmp 4.2 includes a mini-API that can be used to add sound effects to games and similar applications, provided that you have a low latency sound system. It allows module instruments or external sample files in WAV format to be played in response to arbitrary events.
This example using SDL loads a module and a sound sample, plays the module as background music, and plays the sample when a key is pressed:
#include <SDL/SDL.h>
#include <xmp.h>
static void fill_audio(void *udata, unsigned char *stream, int len)
{
xmp_play_buffer(udata, stream, len, 0);
}
int sound_init(xmp_context ctx, int sampling_rate, int channels)
{
SDL_AudioSpec a;
a.freq = sampling_rate;
a.format = (AUDIO_S16);
a.channels = channels;
a.samples = 2048;
a.callback = fill_audio;
a.userdata = ctx;
if (SDL_OpenAudio(&a, NULL) < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", SDL_GetError());
return -1;
}
}
int video_init()
{
if (SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", SDL_GetError());
return -1;
}
if (SDL_SetVideoMode(640, 480, 8, 0) == NULL) {
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", SDL_GetError());
return -1;
}
atexit(SDL_Quit);
}
