I forgot that Mpxplay's author tried various extenders but none worked correctly except DOS/4G and DOS/32A. Dunno why, I forget, probably something obscure like callbacks or whatever. He can probably tell you, if you're interested. I also know that Mpxplay doesn't like DR-DOS' EMM386, at least not its DPMI host either (which does support int 21h extensions), but that's also buggy. It may be my setup, but it always locks up for me except under JEMMEX everything is fine.
