    It seems to recognize them in the same sense rSounder3 does.
It brings up a dialog box asking if you want to load in _either_ 
the left or right channel, but not listen to both at once. This
is better than Oversampler when it comes to AE stereo format, it
just assumes they're monoaural and messes things up.

    I guess LongPlay doesn't support direct stereo playback then,
though if anyone knows for sure, your the one to ask. :)
