I really like your ideas, and I've considered toying with just those concepts. And one of these days when I get more time on my hands, I will do just that. However, my tool of choice would not be FreeAmp -- it would be my networked MP3 jukebox Obsequieum. The jukebox uses MySQL to store all the me

The deadline for the first (even if a rough draft) version of the theme is Saturday. Sooner would be better. Then the final themes to be included in the distro will be due a month later. I'm really curious to see what you will come up with. --ruaok Freezerburn! All else is only icing. -

Rainplay also did it in a pretty kludgey way -- for the release after next we plan on redoing the audio pipeline in a very modular fashion which should allow us to easily create spectrum analyzers... --ruaok Freezerburn! All else is only icing. -- Soul Coughing Robert Kaye -- [EMAIL PRO

ParseColor -- potential problem

I think I may have found a potential problem in ParseColor. I cannot currently check the mods in -- I'm in the middle of doing a ton of other things. However, try replacing the function in Theme.cpp with this function: Error Theme::ParseColor(string &oColorstring, Color &oColor) { int iRet;

Sounds good to me. I've got a follow up question to that: When and where to theme files get decompressed to? I see two reasonable options here: 1) When FreeAmp starts, it figures out what theme it needs and decompresses it into /tmp/freeamp-$pid/theme (or X:\windows\temp\theme). When FreeAmp clo
