musserv - music server for lxdoom and related games
SYNOPSIS
musserv [options] [MUSfile [FM-patch file]]
DESCRIPTION
musserv is the music-playing server used by lxdoom for music output.
It is not likely of any use to the average end-user, except for in
conjunction with lxdoom.
OPTIONS
-l
Will list all synth devices reported by the OSS drivers (which should
be the same as reported by /proc/sound or /dev/sndstat) and exit.
-f
Forces the use of FM-synth even if an AWE32 is detected.
-a
Only use the AWE synth. Not necessary, should be autodetected.
-m
Use a generic (by default the last found) midi synth device
-u
specify a device number for the synth or midi device to use.
Necessary if there is more that one device for a given synth type
(fm, awe, or midi). This is usually required for midi devices.
Look at the output of "musserv -l" for the number to use.
-v
Verbose. Musserver is usually silent. This turns on output.
-h
Gives terse usage information.
-1
For FM-synth, do not use the secondary voice of double-voice
channels. Instruments will sound poorer, but there should be less
dropped notes. Musserv auto-tunes depending on your card, so
this option shouldn't be necessary, unless you want to hear it
just like in the old days ;-)
-2
For FM-synth, force the use of the secondary voice, even on
soundcards with limited voices. Can cause a great deal of
note-droppage on these cards.
-B
Don't increase pitch by an octave when doing FM. Only for
really old voxware drivers (950728).
-D
Causes all songs + the FM-patch info to be dumped to files.
