Audio visualizers
There's a current pull request (#44) seeking to add a new audio
visualizer. I have a build that works, but not by all routes.

Lists of visualizers are available at

Frontend setup > Video > Playback OSD > Visualiser for audio only...

and also at

Listen to Music > play > Menu > More Options > Change visualiser

and similarly at

Play radio stream

These lists are not the same, and at present I don't know where they
come from. The first list doesn't include the new item. Any help
appreciated.

Thanks,

John P

IIRC this comes from mythtv/libs/libmythtv/visualisations/*

This comes from mythplugins/mythmusic/mythmusic/visualizations.cpp

I'm not sure where this comes from, but I would guess libmythtv.

I've had merging the two on my list for a long time, but its never
gotten near the top of the list.

Thanks for the reply. I've put a link in the PR. I don't think the
query ought to stop consideration of the PR, but I've been gnawing away
at the apparent inconsistency and something else turned up:

https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/blob/master/mythplugins/mythmusic/theme/menus/musicmenu.xml

Line 52: <!-- Keep this in synch with
mythtv/themes/defaultmenu/media_settings.xml -->

...but that section has an additional <depends>mytharchive</depends>

https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/blob/master/mythtv/themes/defaultmenu/media_settings.xml

I've changed it on my system, with no noticeable effect. :-)

The files as installed (built from Gary's script) are

/usr/share/mythtv/musicmenu.xml

/usr/share/mythtv/themes/defaultmenu/media_settings.xml

It might be good to have a similar warning with that file too.

Cheers, John
