This is a small  fix for music replay software such as AmigaAMP and for AHI 
intended mainly for GFX card users. If you don't have a GFX card read on anyway
as it might be useful in some way I haven'
t thought of :-)

Background:

  The Paula sound replay chip in all standard amigas runs at a rate determined
by the  rate at which the graphics chips are running. On OCS amigas this is
fixed, so sound replay can only be played at
 up to about 29kHz. For AGA and ECS users the maximum rate is abot 48kHz but
only when using a Doublescan or VGA screenmode.
 Those using GFX cards as their main workbench display often aren't running an
ECS or AGA based display, and so are limited to the old 29kHz. This little
program simply opens up a 1 bit (2 colour) sc
reen in DoubleScan to allow you to use higher rates including the standard  CD
and mp3 rate of 44.1kHz allowing for maximum quality replay possible with the
standard amiga sound hardware.

Installation:

 Please use the supplied installer script. If the fix is not installed correctly
it may lock you out from your workbench screen (resolvable using LAmiga+M key
combination).

 Make sure if you're using OS3.1 or higher that you move the DBLPAL monitor icon
from storage:monitors to Devs:monitors, if it is not already there. 

 I don't have an OS2.x or 3.0 machine to test this on, but it should work fine
(hopefully)

 If you have a TV or 15kHz monitor attached to the video outputs of the amiga,
make sure they are either switched off or disconnected before use, as sending
31kHz signals through them may cause damag
e.

 To remove the program, simply delete everything from ;BEGIN UpRate to ;END
UpRate from the User-Startup file.

Problems:

 You may experience strange behaviour when swapping screens, typically a loss of
mouse control..
This is fixed simply by hitting LAmiga+M.

Source:

 I haven't included the source as it's only 4 lines long and producing a copy of
this fix would be very easy for almost any programmer.

Distribution:

 This is freeware, as it is so easy to code that nobody would ever pay for it
:-)  It would be nice if you sent me a quick email to let me know if it works on
your system though.
 Distribute it as you like, but make sure you include the installer script as
things are likely to go wrong withouut it.  :-(

it at your own risk.

(It really isn't likely to do any damage though.)
