Title: Interocitor: My mod player for iPhone/Touch
Post by: yorgle on February 10, 2010, 04:57:54 AM
Hi all.  Just wanted to announce to you all my mod player for iPod Touch and iPhone; Interocitor!

http://umlautllama.com/iphone/interocitor

There are little screenshots of it there, along with a video showing it running

Buy it in the app store:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/interocitor/id350158458?mt=8

First 5 replies in here will get a free activation code for it! (if you want a copy!)

I tried to infuse a bunch of Amiga 1.x feel into it.  The "workbench hand" is the splash screen, Topaz font, a "Boing" visualizer...

Here's a bunch more screenshots and vids of it from when I was developing it:

Nice. Is this the first modplayer for the iPhone?

On the N900-front there is actually a input plugin for the built-in mediaplayer:

Nope.  There are a couple of mod players out there already.  All of them are pretty basic though.  I just wanted to bring something different, and wanted to add the fun visualizers and such. :)  I'm very happy with it.

I have a few extra codes too; if anyone else wants a copy to try out, and maybe write a review.  (I'd prefer a positive review, of course, but I'd prefer an honest review more than that.)

Thanks!  I tried to have some fun with them.

I have plans for a waveform display (like all the trackers you've ever seen) and perhaps playlist/grouping support, and of course, infusing more "Amiga"ness to it, assuming I can figure out how.  Suggestions?

The Amiga Juggler as a visual would be pretty outstanding! :)

YES.  that would be awesome.

What's the legality of using those graphics these days?

It has a web browser built in, so you can just point it at a local web server share.  Zip up your mods, or download them one-by-one.

Or just use the builtin bookmarks for my archive (http://umlautllama.com/mods), textfiles, and modarchive to find stuff to snag.

:)

It's $2.99 from the app store.  I was offering some free promo codes.  You can have one if you'd like.

I'm far too late for the freebies, but all the same I'd love to try it out :D

I just purchased this, and it's very nice!

If I may, I have requests/suggestions for visualizations. It would be great to see the patterns and effects like in a tracker:

...maybe also with the bars.

My favourite modplayer from old times had a great function where it showed the effect used for each channel in realtime:

That would be amazing! :-)

Having a lot of problems trying to download my files I've put on file hosting sites. Get this "An Error Occured: Frame load interrupted" problem when getting my zipped file from filedropper, 4shared, or anywhere else

Promo codes only work for US iTunes accounts. Or at least they did, it might have changed since the release of iOS4, but I could only provide promo codes to US iTunes users :(

So I've been using this player for a week now, and have a few problems.

1. I had to SSH into my phone to transfer the files since the file serve downloading wouldn't work. Why not just have a PC/Mac side program where attaching the iphone via USB would let you just drag and drop the files?

2. The app crashes a lot. I can't get through a few songs before it crashes on me.

So hopefully the author is still reading this thread, because I don't want to put a critical review on itunes.

If you can resolve these in the next version, I'll put a positive review.

I am downloading it now, Amiga on the Ipod, I always look at this thing called Ipod and think it is where Commodore/Atari was headed. I will post later after I sync and load it, look cool I can not wait.

Hmm I thought the Interocitor for the iPhone/Touch would have been slightly smaller. 8o)

and iPad :-)

It's a bit crashy, mainly when downloading stuff.  A lot of mods are zipped or lha'd and it doesn't seem to handle them.  It also gets very confused with mods that download with a long url in the filename, these are non-compressed files.

You might want it to be able to synch files via iTunes, that way I can upload mods I already have on this machine.

Also try a dedicated iPad version, it's only running via iPhone compatibility which sucks.

Do you guys recommend any alternative mod player on the iphone that's more stable?
