Hi,
My name is Darko Ilic, I'm a SoC student working with the Oregon State
Uni Open Source Lab on media player activity for OLPC project.
We're thinking about adding visualizations to audio player so I'm
considering your libvisual for the purpose.
My first question is about hardware requirements. Since XO machines
will be powered by AMD Geode LX-700 (433 MHz) I'm wondering are there
any visualizations we could run without much trouble.
I did some benchmarking with visualizations that come with amarok and
all of them are probably too much for XOs (they take 30-90% of my
PentiumM 1.6Gz CPU). Writing low-requirements visualization plugin for
XO is an option but I need you to tell me is it doable and if it is I
would ask for your estimation of the size of the project.
If this is anyhow relevant, we are using helix engine and the player
itself is written in python using python bindings for helix player.
Since I'm quite new to this kind of projects I would appreciate any
kind of advice you could give me.
I have checked out libvisual source and libvisual-hackground and I'm
trying to figure it out by my self but if you could point me to some
piece of code or documentation that would help me start, I would be
very very thankful.
Cheers,
--
Darko Ilic
