NEW: Theater View on Mac

(1/8) > >>

Hendrik:
Hey,

22.0.39 for Mac introduces a first draft of a Theater View port to OpenGL. Its still a work in progress, but it works well enough to actually use, so we figured why not let you test it as well!
The long-term plan is to replace even the Windows Theater View with this OpenGL version, so we have one unified across all platforms.

Requirements:
- OpenGL 3.2
- Mac OSX 10.7 or newer

You can check the OpenGL capabilities of your hardware using a tool like "OpenGL Extensions Viewer" or similar.
Any modern GPU should fullfill the OpenGL requirements, only some medium-age Intel GPUs may be different, depending on the drivers.

Current Issues/Missing Features:
- Video Backgrounds are not implemented (ie. a skin using a video file as an animated background)
- Playing Now Visualization is not (fully) implemented (only file images work, not animated visualizations)
- Reflection effects are not implemented

Please let us know about any other issues or your thoughts so far, thanks!

I installed the new version. All Album Cover Art are in mirror view / in reflection  :'(

robertus3:
BRILLIANT!

Big thumbs up for the developers.

(Cover art in reverse).

Hendrik:
Actually, the cover art isn't reversed, the backside is shining through! :)
It appears the OpenGL window forgot to register a depth buffer (or Z buffer), so all 3D elements are painted on the same level, and the backsides can show on top.

Will be fixed for the next build, sorry about that.

dafloydman:
