For more info go here.

Here is the changelog:

Version 1.12

- Fixed transparent zip support using blargg's great
  File_Extractor Library, which also supports other
  compressed formats like gzip, rar, 7zip, among others.
  * NOTE: Many rar and 7z files needs a lot of ram to be
    uncompressed, so i recommend using zip instead *
- Added tta plugin.
- Added wavpack plugin.
- Added support for .mp4 and .m4a extensions in the faadplugin.
- Reduced executable size.
- Fixed mp3 bus error/seg fault issue when trying to load
  a second song.
- Replaced mad plugin with a new one based on mpg123.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.11

- Added aac plugin based on FAAD2.
- Added SC68 plugin.
  * Please copy the Replay folder and the config.txt file */
- Fixed error when searching for TFMX sample files in UADE.
- Fixed subtune support in UADE.
- Fixed audio issue when song ended in UADE.
  (But is still present in subtunes  ).
- Switched to stereo sound in UADE.
- Added HOLD switch support, by default when you press it
  the keys will be locked and the screen will turn off.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 1.10

- Added UADE plugin .
  * To play an amiga song using the UADE plugin
    you need to copy the players folder and the score,
    uaerc, eagleplayer.conf and uade.conf files included
    in the oldplay folder.  Also you don't need to change
    the names of the songs since the plugin should handle
    prefix extensions too. *
- Added new ST-Sound plugin.
- Added new Hively Tracker plugin.
- Added song description tags in vgmstream plugin.
- Added a formats database (formats.db) for vgmstream and UADE plugins.
  * Basically is a file that includes a list of all supported
    extensions by these plugins.  They support a LOT of
    formats (~350 by UADE and ~250 by vgmstream) and i
    haven't tested all of them, so some may not work. *

Well have a good time, and enjoy the music .
Any comment or suggestion please post here in the forum!.

  Thanks a lot to sasq and micket, the creators
  of this wonderfull homebrew.

Thanks, the_gama, for putting your effort into this.
For me this is another Must have in my minisd.

Besides that i don't really know if anyone is interested in the remaining plugins: tta, wavpack, etc.

As a daily oldplay user, I can say I'm not really interested in loseless formats, only oldschool ones (and oldplay does that so well !)

Thank you for the great work!

nice
if next version can be supported "wma" format and can support UNICODE,thanks

UNICODE support would be nice, but i really have no idea how to handle it on Linux and if
Dingux already support Unicode characters.  Well i'm talking about Unicode filenames, because
displaying Unicode tags should be posible with SDL_ttf i guess.

But it would be nice to display unicode filenames, anyone knows if it is posible on Dingux?
Oldplay currently uses the opendir,readdir functions to list files in a folder, is there something similar
to handle unicode filenames?

If Dingux already supports that i can take some time to add Unicode support to Oldplay.

OK i decided to release a quick update for OldPlay .  Please see the the original post for the changelog.
And sorry but i decided to give up on UNICODE, because it would be too much work i think, but if someone
probes it isn't i guess i can give it a try.

Well i hope you enjoy the new version .

Mmm, i haven't really tried any zip i will take a look at it later, thanks for the info. 

Currently the plugin only supports .aac extension but i will add support for m4a (mp4) for the next release .

Thanks a bunch for the update.

Ok, i managed to get zip working .  But there are better news, i did it using blargg's great File_Extracor library which
supports a lot of compressed formats: zip, tar, gz, rar, 7z, etc.  so most of them should work.  Rar and 7zip needs a lot
of ram so i don't know if the dingoo can handle them, but maybe some rsn (rar) snes soundtracks will work, but zips are
working really nice.

I used the zipped 2a03 nsf archive (around 8 MB) for testing and browsing through all those files and folders
was quite fast .
