<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Hi,<br>
<br>
Take my good advice and don't put any more work into this. Phonon's Audio Data<br>
Output is not working in 90% of all phonon Backends and from what I've heard<br>
so far will not be working in any future. I've already designed and<br>
implemented a working OpenGL Amarok applet and realized a spectrum analyzer<br>
with it. After that I was waiting for the backends to finally get the Data<br>
Output working and stabilized.. they won't. I tried begging and complaining<br>
and even tried to force the issue.. nobody is interested in this kind of work.<br>
Without the phonon audio data output all the work becomes meaningless. You<br>
should have talked with the vsxu maintainer (or the Amarok devs) and he<br>
would've told you. </blockquote><div><br></div><div>Markey said that the Phonon issues have been fixed in the VLC backend, but don't exactly know if it is the same issues that have blocked your work.</div><div> </div>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">Also vsxu is currently not yet in a state where it is<br>
likely to be put into any distribution. As long as its not distributed<br>
properly an vsxu applet is not likely to be placed into the official Amarok </blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
trunk (This however is a problem that could be solved in a small time window).</blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think this can be fixed too.. isnt it?</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
Sorry to kill the dreams but I've already put a tremendous amount of work into<br>
this and all for nothing.</blockquote><div> </div><div>This really can't be an option for me because I ve already submitted this for my course project, and so dropping this out means a really hard time for me :( </div>
<div><br></div><div>So may be if you can enlist the issues, then I can try fixing them one by one..</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">If you want to display any other (non audio data<br>
related) OpenGL stuff just give me a call. My applet might need some over-howl<br>
but was working the last time I tried it. However it uses quite some hacks<br>
because the Amarok context area does not support OpenGL pre se (because its<br>
not an opengl applet area).</blockquote><div> </div><div>You mean rendering it onto a label right? I was looking onto it, and was actually looking for other alternatives to this. Also was searching for something that doesn't use a timer to refresh the QGLWidget... (something like vsync, but apparently we don't have such an option - even the Gluon guys use a timer)</div>
