Festalon and Nezplug

- Festalon is a great nsf plugin except it uses up to 50% of my 2,6GHz p4 prosessing power.
  *the later versions of the plugin uses the most, the older versions of the plugin the least
- Nezplug is a great nsf plugin except it doesn't have the option to play files for xxx minutes.
  *in winamp it had, if I remember correctly

Would it be possible to fix either one - or both - of these problems?

That is the price you pay for ludicrous accuracy.

Actually, Nezplug is a crap nsf plug-in. The quality is horrible, and I'm just too lazy to implement a time cut-off. Default alone would result in users asking for a length editor, then some means of creating a playlist or external file header or some other format extension for storing these lengths outside of the database.

Nifty. Is the quality any good? Does it support [a href="http://disch.zophar.net/]NSFE[/url]?

I will admit, the silence detection is a nice feature. If I wasn't so damn lazy, I'd one-up it by "borrowing" the loop detection from the song length creation tool that was used to create the C64 song length database, then allow user to configure how many loops they want and how much fade time afterward.... If I wasn't so damn lazy.

The quality that this plugin has seems to be about the same than the original nezplug has. I thinkall of the plugins are equally good what comes to listening NES tracks. But, although nezplug isn't so accurate, and this alternative nezplug has filters to attenuate the sound more NES-like, I like the hardness and crispness of the sound both of the nezplug's produce. Festalon is definately more accurate and real, but some of the PCM sounds sound little too hard and "smudged" IMO (for example batman sounds better with nezplug than with festalon for me)
Anyway, it's really great that foobar has so many good NES plugins to choose from!

ps. And I don't know about nezplug's nsfe support

Foo_nezplug does not support NSFE, but foo_festalon does.

Could you tell me what nsfe actually is? I have all my nes tracks in .nsf format, so why should I use .nsfe?
