I know I can play them within blitz but I'd like to listen to them without having to load them .. with Media Player or suchlike. Which programs recognise this file type?

Winamp. "It really whips the Llamas ass."

I have no idea what that means. Install and you shall see.

I think Videolan player is the best media player out there since it plays a lot of things no other player can without a lot of stress. I prefer it to Winamp too :)

Also has some pretty nice filters and doesn't use much in the way of resources.

VideoLAN is awesome, but for playing sound files, I prefer good old DeliPlayer - it's rediculous how many obscure formats this one plays.

The interface is terrible though. In one minute of fiddling around I couldn't see how to open a music file with it ;]

Can't blitz play em? Just shimmy up a quick load and play function and build your own.

You doubleclick on a file and/or drag a file onto it's window.

I like dbPowerAMP and have to agree that DeliPlayer has one of the most needlessly bizarre interfaces on the planet.

My computer plays .OGG in MediaPlIf you search & install for an OGG Codec, then any codec-capable player such as MediaPlayer or MediaPlayer Classic will be able to play the file for you... I use MEdiaPlayer classic on my system for .OGG, and it works just fine.

That's just rediculous =] Amiga DeliPlayer didn't force you to do that! Thanks for the tip though. =]

Thanks folks! Managed to get a codec for Windows Media Player ...
