Some interesting open-source OpenGL visuals over here:
http://vsxu.com/
Anyone know if this would be possible as an XBMC add-on?

jme Wrote:Windows switched from OpenGL to DirectX 9 quite a while back.Are we talking about XMBC here? the GUI? if OpenGL for that is not available under windows, yes it's a problem.
Quote:I noticed that there is a linux version of VSXu so maybe a linux OpenGL port would be possible to create.We develop on linux (it's the best platform for debugging etc) and cross-compile for windows, so both should be possible.
Quote:For whoever takes a stab at porting this the old 'look at existing visualizers to understand how to create one' is probably still the way to go.Yea, probably best. I'll take a look and see what I can come up with
