I've got milkdrop working on mp 1.2 beta + XPSP3 relatively fast (I've been reading the text file with the instructions) but it's not working very well.
As others stated the song name is not displayed.
Also the vis is a bit strange it seems to run at full fps a bit then it slows down the frame rate and it looks a bit choppy then runs at full frame rate again and so on (normal-slow-normal-slow-normal-slow....).
It looks strange - maybe it has something to do with "the not responding to music".
I've got the energy saver of MP disabled (that reduces fps to save energy when idle). In older versions this caused some issues with milkdrop. But now even when disabled vis is not working like it should. Using winamp on the same machine milkdrop runs just fine.
