Andy has looked upon us kindly and adapted his WhiteCap vizualization to work within MC. Great addition to G-Force and to MC as well. It is available here:
http://soundspectrum.com/whitecap/nph-download.pl

If you have a G-Force Gold license it will work with WhiteCap Special Edition.
There is also a free version.
Thanks Andy!

I just decided to take the plunge and pay the $10 for G-Force.  Andy deserves the cash, and now we get WhiteCap for the same money!  Sweet!

Thanks again for supporting MC with these great visualizations!

Actually, this would be a good opportunity to ask ...

Is there any way we can eliminate, or reduce, the "Saving Database ..." pause that occurs every couple of minutes when playing files?  It doesn't (usually) pause the music, but does pause the visualization.  With Andy's beautiful visualizations running, I can't bear to have those unseemly pauses just about once every song!

If we can't have a setting to eliminate them while music is playing altogether, could we at least have a "Limit Database Maintenance While Playing" type option that reduces these operations to a vastly reduced frequency?  It would be okay with me if this means that we could occasionally lose database information if we close MC quickly after making changes as long as:

a)  It is an option as I mentioned above.
b)  We have some way to manually initiate a Save Database operation, or to enable Saving on Exit (which wouldn't help in crash instances, but would help most of the time).

(I should also say that if it is just me that gets these pauses, or if most people don't have as much of an issue and I should just see this as a reason to scrimp and save for an Athlon64 sooner than I intend then let me know.)

Hi Glynor,

I too have experienced the Saving Database causing pauses in my running Viz. I had previously requested that the database saves also be postponed during the 'updating tags' that follows tag and file changes.

I imagine that this either takes alot more work to implement than we expect it will, or they feel it is not of high enough priority to address.

And, yes, Andy does deserve the $$  
G-Force alone is more than worth the $10.oo cost alone.

It's definitly disturbing my beamer with the impressive G-Force show every few minutes with a hick-up.

So the suggestions have my vote.

Great to see it's available for MC at last, I've used it with WinAmp for quite some time. Bought it right away, 10$ is a real bargain and that even includes G-Force Gold...very nice!
