AtomicPlayer
QuuxPlayer has recently been revised and re-released under new branding called AtomicPlayer. AtomicPlayer is similar in structure but has been rewritten to support the newest Windows audio stack, called WASAPI (Windows Audio Session API). AtomicPlayer requires Windows Vista or Windows 7 because this new audio infrastructure is offered in those versions. QuuxPlayer remains available as a legacy offering to support Windows XP and for ASIO support.
