Winamp-VIS-plugs in foobar

Reply #75 –
I touched it up a bit. Here's the binary and the source.

@bleh: It may or may not be a good idea to have that synchronization around the sample/spectrum update/copy code. Also, I don't know if visualization updates always receive an uninterrupted stream of samples, or if they may have gaps, so feel free to move the sample synchronization out of the sample pushing loop. :B

Hmm... Maybe it would be better to just synchronize around the whole block, otherwise the vis thread might get non-matching sample/spectrum data. Oh well, whatever.

Wow kode, 97kb smaller thx.

I also get the little secondary demi_window coming out of fullscreen everytime with bleh's second build and kode's build.

For some reason, the vis plugin that I wrote doesn't show up in the bacon list, but works fine in Winamp.  Ideas?

I have updated the binary and the source again.
  • The host window's title reflects the current track, and is updated whenever the song changes.
  • Host window tries to keep itself hidden now.
  • FreeLibrary calls are also checked and synchronized, so the visualization won't unload if the same library is currently in use by the configuration, and vice versa.

It uses a different visualization SDK version. If you post your VIS.H, bleh or I will try to add support for it.

kode54 IS God lol. no seriously.

edit: i should put something useful here. ok, maybe it can just be made easier to set up for newbiews, a bit of an installer type thing.. perhaps find milkdrop & copy from winamp folder? get permission to install milkdrop?

Hm, this project is still an emulator for winamp vis plugins right? If so, shouldn't other plugins than Milkdrop be tested?
Currently i'm at work, so there may be parts left out in this description. I tried the other default plugin for winamp in bacon, and as much as I tried to set new settings it wouldn't remember 'em. The plugin was called Voice Print something something. If you could investigate this, it might help the emulation of other plugins.
Again I'd like to say that this is a great project, especially since it'll help many ppl convert to a better way of playing music. At least I think foobar is more efficient than Winamp --

Awesome work by both kode54 and bleh, keep it up! The visualization definitely seems way more responsive now!

All that is needed now is, some type of configuration on where the plug-ins are located....

try to load avs (coming from a wa2.9 or + version) ... you will get an msgbox error and the plugin will fail to load because it doesnt find wa ... thats find for me since I think this version of avs uses some generic window skinning api blabla

but the msgbox keeps popping out again (I think it maybe due to the way foobar handles visualisation). A tweak to stop this msgbox flooding would be nice for any basic user wanting to migrate ...

also it would be nice to find a tweak so the visualisation window wouldnt close and open when the outputed stream restarts or stop ... I know this depends on the way vis is handled within the fb2k core too... dunno I guess you either a) find a good solution or b) ask Peter to change its code .... a nice generalVisStartup(...) coupled with a streamOpenNotification and streamStopNoficiation instead of init and kill everytime a stream start and stop would be better imo (anyway I'm sure Peter wants to have feedbacks from the fiew vis (or vis wrapper) programmers out there)

nice work though, filling another small hole of fb2k

Could you make the directory where the plugin searches vis plugins user definable like in foo_looks?

Thanks, kode54.  Nice to have someone more experienced working on this.

@nIRV:
Yes, the AVS thing not stopping is a bug.  I noticed it yesterday and had it fixed, but then didn't bother posting the fixed build for some reason.  AVS still won't work, but it'll only let you know once then.  As for the window closing and opening, ssamadhi97 posted a possible solution to that earlier that I haven't yet gotten to looking into... the weekend's over so I'm going to be busier, but I'd like to get rid of the repeated window recloses, too, if possible.


@anza & Skates:
I was planning on doing this at some point, but I haven't gotten around to it.  It should be done soon-ish.


@RedSaint:
I've tested a few other plugins and all of them work fine except for AVS.  Milkdrop keeps coming up because it's the one people use the most .


@Gnerma:
kode's build is so much smaller because I'm using Visual Studio .NET 2003 and I'm statically linking the C runtime library into the DLL instead of handing out MSVCR71.DLL to everyone... though maybe I should be doing that :/.

Updated again, links for simplicity. [binary] [source]

It seems AVS expects IPC_GETVERSION message to return 0x2900 or greater. I changed this to 0x2950, and then 0x2900, but it fails to create its main window. It appears to need three undocumented API messages.

Corrected. Now it will shut down if it failed to initialize the visualization module.

Simple spectrum already does this. I may do this next, unless bleh beats me to it. :B

kode54, your build gives me "ERROR (foo_vis_bacon) : Unable to start thread, error 22". i'm running win98se.

Gah, I just got done going over the changes you made in your last zip file.

I'm not going to be getting much done on this in the next few days because I have to do all the homework I put off from doing this over the weekend.  Hooray for 17-credit schedules.

Updated again. minus0.9 for all. [binary] [source]

Changed to use CreateThread instead of _beginthreadex. That's not the problem... More likely, it was the fact that the thread ID pointer parameter was NULL. NT is OK with that, but 9x is not.

Anyway... Thank you, bleh, for having the patience to do what I and so many others could not.

Since 0.9, the "acidspunk" vis doesn't work anymore with baconwrap! All the previous versions of this amazing plug-in showed the acidspunk vis but now it is gone in the baconwrap options, very strange...  Any ideas? 

Edit: Ahhh! I found the solution myself! It seems that since 0.9 the plug-in .dlls must have the prefix "vis_..." or they're not loaded    Renaming "acidspunk2.dll" to "vis_acidspunk2.dll" worked.

Again thanks for that funky plug!

sir Kode, I dub thee "plugin snatcher*" for merciless taking over (and improvement of) other people's plugins 

*plugin stealer? taker-over-er? anyone got a better name?

I'll have to go try some more winamp plugins, it's been so long since i've used any. I once (many years ago hehe) put Geiss on the ceiling at a school dance  'twas kewl. Geiss2 (which i didn't know existed) works with bacon btw. this is all very cool.

there seems to be some oddity changing plugins - even when i changed from milkdrop to geiss it wanted to keep starting milk for a while - ? i think pressing save all on the config fixed it.

stutter reminds me, any chance of a priority option, or is that a silly idea?

Could you make the directory where the plugin searches vis plugins user definable like in foo_looks?


Can someone confirm that this works? The bacon plugin will find Milkdrop, but milkdrop won't start...

I've tried several directories:

./components/Winamp Plugins
./components/bacon
./Winamp Plugins
./WinampPlugins

none of em worked except for:
./bacon

Maybe i just need a clean install...

Uploaded minus0.8. [binary] [source]

Whitecap running + config problem should be fixed, as well as any other possible conflicts from opening configuration while vis is running. I hope.

It will also default to Winamp Plugins directory, if it's installed.

Also, that vis_*.dll change in minus0.9 was because I discovered an annoying delay the first time I loaded the configuration when it was pointed at a fully-laden Winamp plugins directory. Maybe I should make this configurable.

Very nice work Bleh and Kode54.  The only problem I have is custom text does not work when I press "Y".

No matter what directory I change the Bacon vis dir to, foo_vis_bacon always seems to want vis_milk.dll to be in ./foobar2000/bacon/ (along with its Milkdrop dir).

To replicate:
Delete ./foobar2000/bacon and install Milkdrop somewhere else like ./foobar2000/Winamp Plugins.  Then change the vis directory to where you installed it. See if Milkdrop works...

the spectrum data sent by bacon is kinda strange (see screenshot).

the plugin used on the screenshot is my fixed version of nullsoft's vis_minisdk.
(original version wrote negative window positions to the ini...)
source and binary can be downloaded HERE.

Latest version: Configure button doesn't work after plugin has run once (using winamp plugins dir, not \bacon\. But, on the bright side, the whitecap prefs bug is fixed.

This fits the slightly strange looking behaviour of whitecap - I thought I must be imagining things, but the spectrum seemed to sink where it should rise.

edit: also, the plugin binary you supply still seems to be kinda broken. It works once, but then it appears those window placement settings get screwed (removing ini data fixes it, temporarily).

edit2: and the spectrum just looks magnified in fb2k to me.
