(Disclaimer: I'm not exactly sure where to put this, but since it deals with files that play classic video game music, I judged to put it here. Move it as you see fit.)

Well, after one too many B.S.O.D.s courtesy of WinAmp, I've become fed up with it and moved onto the music player known as Foobar. So far, it hasn't utterly crashed my computer, so it's on my good side. However, it refuses to play SPC (SNES) and VGM (Genesis) music files, despite downloading this one plugin into the components folder that should play SPC and VGM files. So... can anyone help me figure out why SPCs and VGMs are a no-go on my player?

Oh, and to be specific, I'm running on "foobar2000 v0.9.5.1.

Look for a version called "foobar Special". It may be a slightly older version, but it does include all of the plugins to play just about anything...from SIDS, to mods, NES, SNES, PCE...etc etc.

EDIT 2: Okay, everything's awesome now! I've got Foobar right where I want it, so this topic may be locked. It's served its purpose. :)
