IRIS

IRIS is a OpenGL visualization plugin, based on the OpenGL spectrum analyzer, part of xmms (www.xmms.org).

Once installed, you can launch the plugin in xmms like this:

• press Control-v
• choose IRIS 3D analyzer 0.6
• click on "Enable plugin"

4 possibilities :

1. it works :)
2. the X server crashes (it never happened to me !). Please look at /var/log/XFree86.x.log and verify your installation.
3. xmms crashes. try to run xmms on a terminal and look if there are error messages.
4. IRIS is not proposed on the plugin list. Try to run xmms on a terminal and look if there are error messages.

If you need more help send me an email.

To configure the plugin:

• press Control-v and double click on "IRIS 3D analyzer" or click "Configure"
• or press Tab in the plugin window

When the plugin is running:

• the "z x c v b" keys are bound to the same as it is in XMMS.
• the left and right arrow keys change the rotation speed.
• you can resize the window

  NOTES

  • This is my fist work with OpenGL : code may be ugly.
  • plugin programming is fun :)
