projectM Description

A music visualizer projectM is a XMMS visualization plugin which uses 3D hardware accelerated iterative image based rendering. projectM is basically a reimplementation of Milkdrop under OpenGL. projectM already does some things Milkdrop does not (like infinite custom shapes/waves).projectM should run anywhere where OpenGL is available (Linux, BSD, Mac OS X, and Windows verified). Please port me to your music player.Installation:Install SDL 1.3 branch(Un)fortunately there is a special feature in a development branch of SDL dubbed "branch_1_3_x" that projectM requires to handle different texture sizes and window resizing. This code is under CVS at SDL's sourceforge site, and has not been thoroughly tested. However, the developers have found it stable enough to merit installation. We provide a source tarball of a recent CVS version on our website (). Once you have downloaded the tarball SDL-1.3.0.tar.gz do the following:As usual, run./configurefollowed bymakeand as rootmake installNOTE: this will install SDL in /usr/local, so when you compile projectM make sure that it finds SDL-1.3 and not SDL-1.2 (which is likely in /usr with most distributions). Hopefully the configure script will verify this automatically for you. To force SDL into /usr, type ./configure --prefix=/usrfollowed by typical make and make install.Install projectMThen run./configurefollowed bymakeand as rootmake installThis will install projectM into XMMS's Visualization plugin directory. projectM's configuration files, including the default packaged presets are in /etc/projectM.Enable projectM by loading XMMS and pressing CTRL-v. This will bring up the vis plugin menu. Highlight projectM in the list (if it's not there something went wrong during installation), and click the enable button. Sit back and enjoy the trippy visuals... Requirements: · XMMS · SDL What's New in This Release: · We apologize for taking our sweet time (17 months) getting this out. Truth is, projectM 2.0 has been 98% ready for almost a year and a half, as many of our users have noticed by pulling the code from SVN. · We put some finishing touches on in the last few days and it's time to get it out. We have packaged the presets in separate packages for your convenience. If you would like to use the new Milkdrop 2.0 support, remember to install the Nvidia Cg toolkit, enable USE_CG during compilation, and install the Milkdrop 2.0 presets. I have personally tested this on a Radeon 4670 and Geforce 7900GS with great results. Please report back to me if there are any issues. · As always, we need your support to get projectM out to more people. Please ask your favorite media player or distribution to include projectM support!
