Title: Winamp Visualisation
Post by: Ant2110 on August 02, 2015, 09:28:09 PM
When playing an audio track my 2nd screen shows a audio wave visualisation.

How can I change this to a different one, ideally I want some sort of coloured bar graph?

Does the program actually use Winamp to produce the visual and if so, do I need to download more Winamp plugins to do what I want?

Thanks
Ant.

I cannot answer this 100% but someone will, I would say that if indeed it uses Winamp, then yes you would have to download what ever plug in you require.

Regards

Mark

E-Touch uses Windows Media Player to play media.

Visualisations used to be changed by installing third party plugins.

There may also be an option to set visualisations in Media Player.

It will use whatever you have windows media player set to in terms of visualization. The geforce one it pretty cool but isn't free.

I'll say!! Very cool, been using the paid version for many years now, but tends to stutter on low spec PC's/Video cards.

Love the fact you can incorporate your own images/graphics.

Ok I am now using the GeFroce one as recommended - it is very nice.

One further question, when the internet facts for the track flash up on the bottom of the screen, when they disappear it interrupts the GeFroce screen playing behind it, and causes the visualisation to clear the screen and then continues with a new visualisation pattern...

Is there a way of preventing this or do I need to switch off the facts?


Cheers.

You will probably need to switch off the facts.

mm.. I DO like the facts :-)

Also, Barcrest, I was reading another post from you, and saw how many videos and tracks you have on your system.. when are you going to make them available on a members share? Think we all would enjoy that  ;D ;D ;D

Maybe i could take a look and see if there is a way of doing it. It might be to do with the resizing of the image to show the facts that is causing geforce to restart. Have you tried using the virtual LED for the facts?

No - I will try that though.
