plugins - LCD

jollyeskimo · 29th November 2002, 22:08

i have a LCD screen (L.I.S. LCD) that has a analyser that uses a winamp2 vis. plugin. I'm already hooked on Winamp3, and the only way that i could run this vis is using Geiss' Class Visualization Plugin. The problem is, the plugin needs to be started every time i start winamp, plus the preferences window has to be open for the analyser to stay active. Is there any way to have the plugins autostart, just like they did in winamp 2??

you mean good old ctrl-shift-K.... yes this prevents me from using this visulatization as often as I would. Pain to go to preferences everytime i want to run it. But then again I didn't read the readme so who knows!

Here is where I give a shameless plug for Matrix Orbital LCDs and their companion software LCDC, which is the first piece of LCD software to natively support Winamp3, courtesy of my plugin

my L.I.S. LCD uses proprietary code.......and i've already tried LCDC before, with no results......

Yeh, sorry, the protocol for LIS LCDs is closed, so no definition file can be written for LCDC - See the thread on the LCDC forums here.
