DragonMedia Player v0.07 Alpha – lossless audio, XING MP3 support added
Never fear, FLAC is here! And though you couldn’t store as much MP3 tracks as you would for these faithful replicas of your favorite CD tracks, you know that the lossless audio fidelity is well worth it. But wait, DragonMedia Player v0.07 alpha does more than fulfill a long-time promise – according to author DragonMinded, it also patched up the quirks with MP3s encoded using the XING codec. More at the full story.

Homebrew developer DragonMinded reached another milestone in the development cycle of DragonMedia Player, as version 0.07 Alpha finally incorporates support for the Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) by creator Joah Coalson. This is good news for audiophiles, as the Nintendo Wii is now capable of catering to their desires of audio fidelity.
With DragonMedia Player v0.07 Alpha, irregular XING headers on MP3 tracks will no longer cause the homebrew application to crash. Crash protection has also been added for the times when the SD card could have been accidentally ejected from the Nintendo Wii. And if no menu background is present, it won’t stall the console either.
