DeepSID
I have made my own online SID player. It uses Jürgen Wothke's WebSid emulator and can also play digi tunes. You can browse all of HVSC #68 with it.
Check out my blog post for more information:

Quote: Thought about it a few times. I also thought about changing to Hermit's jsSID when a 2SID/3SID tune is clicked, since his emulator is the only SID handler that can play those.
But it's a bit nasty as that would change the SID handler for then on. To some, it would be like an old PC DOS game that suddenly auto-changes from EGA to VGA because it detects that the game needs more colors for one scene than EGA can handle. ;)
At least it's super easy to change the SID handler on the spot. I even made sure it retains the sub tune it's on when doing that.
I'll note it down anyway.
Just have one preferred (ui selectable) and one active (automatically selected when preferred can’t handle the tune) |

Thanks. For now, I just stream the files from the mirror site directly. MP3 for HVSC #49 and FLAC for #50 and up. R2 and R5 sounds great to me for all the tunes I've tried.
If anything, there are a rare inconsistencies regarding song lengths. Sometimes SOASC thinks a tune is much shorter than HVSC believes, which is really confusing when trying to seek click a tune past the length of the SOASC file (it then just skips to the next tune).
But I have also seen one other situation where SOASC correctly believed the song was much longer. The length in HVSC cut off way before the song was actually finished. Stupid me didn't note it down at the time. I'll see if I can stumble over it again later.
Waxhead from SOASC wants me to use their dl.php script, but I'm not sure I can make it work with Howler. I have to fiddle some more with it and see what I come up with. |

If you stream MP3 files from HVSC #49 then use the Songlengths.txt from HVSC #49 where the SOASC project got the info from. Otherwise you will get differences since the song lengths may be corrected for an HVSC update and also tunes get fixed which may result in a different song length as well.
If you find incorrect song lengths, please inform the HVSC team so we can update it for the next release. |

That's a good point. Didn't think of it that way.
Either way, I have this idea that I might just use the .duration method in Howler for SOASC files. Then the time bar duration will just be whatever length the MP3/FLAC file has, regardless of what the database song lengths are actually set to. |

or perhaps even 8580 have more variation than some people think? :) |

Atleast common digifix resistor fucks up 8580 on modern tunes :) |

superb work on this one, really love using it, except...
list of found files window is very small, only 4 entries visible at once. could it be on the right side using up all vertical space ?
also when I click between the slider and the arrows to skip a whole page the gui scrolls awkwardly slowly, "nicely" accelerating and deccelerating. could that be turned off? and for all gui elements, all seem to do this which makes all response time very slow.
also higher contrasts between white spaces and the very light grey background would be welcome, and higher contrast overall (or is it just me getting blind..) |

Thanks for the input.
Regarding the list of files, it flexes and adapts to the height of the browser window. A taller window, a taller list. =)
The right side space is reserved for e.g. a visualizer and maybe some other stuff I have planned some day.
So, you can see the right side space but only have four entries in the list? What kind of device do you use? Only on a smartphone is it limited to four entries, but then there should be no right space. Both on my iPhone and on my iPad, scrolling is fast both swiping or holding down the arrows.
Btw, if you're on desktop, hit F9 to open the player in a small pop-up window. |
