I can't find any information on RealPlayer visualizations. Was there an API/SDK released? Also, were there many visualizations created and were they better than Sonique visualizations in some way?

Quote from: raulreturnsand then port projectM (https://sourceforge.net/projects/projectm/files/2.1.0/projectM-complete-2.1.0-Source.tar.gz/download) and goom (https://sourceforge.net/projects/goom/files/goom2k4/0/goom-2k4-0-src.tar.gz/download) visualizations to xmplay/sonique

There are no plans for that, but if you or someone else would like to do it, here's a simple vis plugin with source code (including the Sonique vis API) that you can use for reference:

Thanks for the link. Are there any particular RealPlayer plugins that would make adding support for them worthwhile?

here is a zip of realplayer visualizations (except cosmic belt, which is also for sonique):

Ian @ un4seen

Thanks, but I don't currently have any way to try them. Are there any videos of them, eg. on YouTube? I would like to see what they look like, to see if adding support for them would be worth the effort. If they turn out to be no better/different than existing Sonique plugins then they would seem a bit unnecessary, wouldn't they?

There are currently 115 Sonique visual plugins on the XMPlay support site. Are there any similar RealPlayer plugin collections, or are the ones you posted all of them? I did try searching for more but couldn't find any.


Ian @ un4seen

Do you know if there are any other plugins or is that all of them?

well, this is all. cosmic belt is already available for xmplay/sonique.
