Setting up music

To change the music that ASC plays, place a file music1.asctxt in your primary ASC directory and specifiy the files there. ASC can play MP3, OGG, Midi and various tracker formats like MOD, S3M and others.

The default file looks like this:

playlist {
   Name = Not used at the moment
   tracks = music/*.mp3
} playlist

If you also want to play MOD files for example (located in the music directory), change the file into

playlist {
   Name = Not used at the moment
   tracks = music/*.mp3 music/*.mod
} playlist

ASC uses the SMPEG library for playing MP3 files, which apparently can not decode MP3 files with variable bitrate.
