Infinity plugin revamped!

Duilio J. Protti — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 06:04:56 -0000

A long time has past. XMMS is not available anymore in major distros, so then Infinity moves to the newer Audacious media player based on the old good one XMMS. The first 0.7.0beta1 does not support navigation keys in interactive mode and also does not support configuration of plugin parameters, but it works in Audacious!

XMMS Infinity plugin package name changed for release 0.6.2

Duilio J. Protti — Mon, 18 Jul 2005 22:30:35 -0000

An option was added to let see the current play title on the
Infinity's title bar. Also there is support now for the new
vectorization features which comes with GCC 4. The package name now is xmms-infinity, instead of infinity-plugin.

A new website has been designed, which uses a Content Management System to help keep things more actualized.

Display scrambled bug finally removed!

The problem was that XMMS also uses MMX extensions, and
floating point registers and MMX registers are overlaped
(they are exactly the same). So, if there is a context switch
while infinity is using MMX registers (an before to finish
and call emms() to come back to fp mode), the processor
is yielded to XMMS, and then when the control comes back to
infinity, probably the MMX registers are completely trashed,
if XMMS has performed any fp operation.

Infinity plugin doesn't work on Debian

I have been awared about problems running Infinity on Debian distros. It show anomalous colors on some kind of static. This is an open bug on where there is a lot of working on.

Infinity XMMS plugin: Major bugfix

Duilio J. Protti — Sun, 16 May 2004 19:44:45 -0000

Major bugfix release 0.5.4. Fixes problem of completely
deadlock when XMMS go to play on some systems. Also
window closing is now disabled, so only XMMS
enable/disables the plugin.

Infinity XMMS plugin 0.5.3 released

Duilio J. Protti — Fri, 14 May 2004 02:43:32 -0000

Now, when the window is iconified, the plugin just go sleep and don't consume cpu time. Also, there is a limit on the frames/second that the plugin computes, so if the window is small or the system very fast, just take the timeslice it needs an yields the processor to another process.

Platform independent release

Duilio J. Protti — Tue, 11 May 2004 02:01:47 -0000

Now the configure script includes the option 'disable-mmx' to turn off the MMX detection support, so the plugin would be compile on any platform.

Window Resizing

Duilio J. Protti — Sat, 08 May 2004 04:11:29 -0000

The new version 0.5.0 of Infinity gives the user the capability to resize the window on the fly just with the mouse. It also include, for the developers, structured doxygen-like comments on the code, so now the documentation could be generated automatically from sources.
