Notes:

1. In order to use this "Images Music System" player you must first disable
   the internal Unic-Tracker player in the EaglePlayer manager menu, because
   the Unic-Tracker recognition code isn't perfect and may incorrectly
   identify "Images Music System" songs.

2. This player uses the WaitAudioDMA function so you can change the wait
   method in the EP Timing submenu and set the correct values for your
   particular Amiga CPU and/or screen mode. EP's "Automatic Wait" option
   does not work correctly for Amigas with some of the more advanced screen
   modes (DblPAL, Productivity, etc) and some graphics card screen modes.
   Therefore, it is best to use the "Raster Wait" mode and set the raster
   value to at least 16 and save this wait mode as the default. Without
   these changes the player can "miss" some notes depending on the active
   screen mode. The "DBF Loops" method can also be used, but the correct
   value depends on your Amiga CPU speed and it is therefore not recommended.

3. "Images Music System" is a tracker clone (perhaps from Atari ST) that was
   used for a few games (for example: "Shadow Dancer") that were converted
   to the Amiga by Images Software in the year 1990. Most (if not all) songs
   for Images Design games were made by Matthew Simmonds (Matthew Symmons)
   aka 4-MAT/Anarchy and Jolyon Myers aka JVM Design/Share and Enjoy.

4. If you have (or know of) unsupported "Images Music System" modules
   please contact Wanted Team.

5. Now you can choose your preferred player version for use with EP 2.00+.
