Chester, I didn't have a problem with playing MISSION – just saved it as an SMUS file. I expaned the repeat and split the chords in RaidersMarch and saved it as an SMUS file, and it, too, played OK. I did notice a couple of things. One, that the AV SMUS player does not sound as good as DMCS. Two, that the AV player plays the music back slightly faster. (Raiders took about 2:10 to play with DMCS or dplay, while it only took about 2:01 in AV). One major thing was that I found that I had to reboot my Amiga after using DMCS, or the AV player didn't work properly. This may be the cause of other messages about improper playback from AV. My guess is that DMCS is leaving a 'calling-card' someplace in memory that is messing up the AV player's timing. Hope this helps, 8) David
