Mpxplay supports many features unique to it among DOS/console media players. These include:
DOS version of Mpxplay requires cca 100 MHz i486 CPU or faster for realtime play-back, exact value depends mostly from audio codec and file format used. 4-8 MiB RAM is also required. MS-DOS 5.00+ or equivalent (e.g. FreeDOS) is required.
Mpxplay supports sound cards using one of two methods: natively or through emulation. Native support is achieved by having drivers in Mpxplay that are capable of writing to the sound card directly. When native support is used more of the sound cards features are available such as the ability to use 32-bit sound.
