AdPlug is a

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_%28computing%29">library</a>,

which does nothing on its own. It must be combined with something else that

can make the library do something useful. An example is the Winamp plugin,

which acts as an interface between Winamp and AdPlug, allowing songs that

the AdPlug library supports to be played by Winamp.

There are a few different interfaces like this which can be downloaded below.

Choose the one that best suits your needs.

<td><h2>AdPlug Database:</h2>

<p>The AdPlug database is the source for AdPlug to get essential

replay information about problematic files. Some file formats

(eg. Apogee's IMF format) contain too few information about a song for

it to be correctly replayed by AdPlug. To counter this, the AdPlug

database was created.</p>

<p>If you have a problematic file that's not covered in this database,

please file a bug report against the database and include either the

problematic file itself or the corresponding database entry.</p>

<p>The following file packages are available:</p>

<li>adplug.db - uncompressed database file</li>

<li>adplugdb-*.tar.gz - gzip compressed database package</li>
