[QUOTE="hwahrmann, post: 139970, member: 10391"] [COLOR="Red"][SIZE="4"]How to Configure Winamp Visualisations as of 08.10.2010 (With MP 1.2)[/SIZE][/COLOR] This thread grew over the past and there's a lot of confusion how to use Winamp Visualisations. I have just commited a few changes to SVN, which are updating the BASS libraries including BassVis, which is responsible for rendering the Music Visualisations. So how to make a Winamp Visualisation work? If you look at the Winamp install folder, you will notice that all plugins, including visualisations are stored in a sub folder named [B]Plugins[/B]. Unfortunately some of the Winamp Vis, like the popular Milkdrop rely on this hard coded folder to search for their Ini files. So having the Vis in the [B]MusicPlayer\plugins\visualizations\[/B] folder, like we did until now, will cause troubles, as some of you have noticed in this thread. So the solution is to store the Vis also in a folder named [B]Plugins[/B], which is a sub folder to the main executing program's, Mediaportal.exe, root folder. Within MediaPortal, we have already this sub folder, which is used for all MediaPortal Plugins. You simply need to copy the Vis dll and all other required files into the Plugins folder residing in the MediaPortal root folder. Don't create any subfolders, besides that, which a vis might require. e.g. for Milkdrop2 copy vis_milk2.dll and the "Milkdrop2" subfolders from the Winamp Plugins folder to the <mp-install-dir>\Plugins folder. Configuration.exe will pick it up from there and show it in the listbox of the config dialog. If you don't find any Winamp Vis, then you might not have copied them into the Plugins folder as instructed above. This change is already effective in SVN and will be part of the first 1.2.0 public builds. Old Version of first Post: [/QUOTE]
