I could not get my Win 10 Home version 1903 machine to recognize the .pcm file type and associate it with this program. When I opened the program itself, it wanted me to point it to a folder. I led it to the folder with several .pcm files. I clicked on the folder name and the program closed. Nothing happened. After a lot of d***ing around trying to solve the problem, my PC popped up a message that said the program would not run on my machine. Based on the positive reviews, I assume that I was not understanding how to set up the program after I installed it. Still, I'm giving it 1 star as a warning to others that they may have trouble installing it. I have to say Poor in all categories because it wasn't easy, I never experienced the features or the design. There was no help in a README.txt file in the install directory. I couldn't find any operating documentation.

Sorry for your inconvenience and thank you reporting problem! I found the bug of PlayPcmWinAlbum to cause the program crash and it is fixed on version 5.0.75 (or later versions). BTW, PlayPcmWin installer installs two music player programs: one is PlayPcmWin simple music player app which is considered as stable, and another is PlayPcmWinAlbum relatively new "album player" style music player app.

A BIG THANK YOU for such good player! In sound quality, far better than my beloved Foobar2000. No doubt about it. I miss just one thing: a -search box- for my now big PPWPL playlists!

Maybe placebo, but it sounds better to me than other players. I just couldn't figure out how to adjust volume of channels(like L: 80%, R: 100%). Recommended

バージョン5.0.15から並列読み込みが削除されましたが、私の環境だと並列読み込みを有効にしないとメモリ使用量が無限に増え続け永遠に再生できないバグがあるので再び実装してほしいですあとスペクトル表示機能があればさらにいいと思います

並列読み込みはプログラムが大幅にバグっていたので機能に蓋をしておりました。5.0.37以降で再び使用できるようになっております。

@yamamoto2002: Thanks, I like the program :-) However, Version 514x64en doesn't show any playback data (current time / total duration) :-( My OS is Windows 7 x64 Home Premium Service Pack 1 on a Toshiba laptop. All the best from Germany Stefan

Most certainly, it is caused by "minimize redraw" optional function of PPW. It is confusing user experience and actual processing power saving benefit is low, so its function is deleted on version 5.0.15. if it is desired to minimize graphics processing load, minimizing PlayPcmWin app by pressing right top “🗕” button. it completely eliminate redraw events of app window.
