To install a Player-Skin put the downloaded "*******.wsz" - File in the directory:
/home/~/.xmms/Skins ---- XMMS can read "*.wsz" - Files.
If You have downloaded a Tar-archive extract it to the same directory
( Actual version of the XMMS-Player is 1.2.10, needs only 2% CPU-Time )

Installation of the VU-meterplugin:

If there is no RPM-Package for Your Distribution available
You have to install from sources, don`t be afraid, it's easy !

1. Download and untar the Source-File from "Sourceforge" (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=56771&package_id=52133)
2. Check whether You have installed the GCC Compiler on Your system and update
the XMMS-Player if necessary. Install the "XMMS-Devel Package" !!!
3. Open a console and become root, go into the untared directory of the vumeterplugin.
4. Run following 3 commands one after the other:
./configure or configure
make
make install
When You get an error-message, look at "google" to solve the problem !!!
5. The plugin is now installed. Next You have to make a new directory called VU_Meter_skins in Your local XMMS-directory (/home/~/.xmms/). Move
the "default" and the other Skins from the untared Plugin to the new directory.
Start XMMS and activate the VUmeter-plugin. Ready!
When it doesn't starts, then first have a look on the rights of the new files.

A detailed installation guidance for the plugin and the Skins You can
find under: (http://www.vivaolinux.com.br/dicas/verDica.php?codigo=7789)
or: (http://www.jellykernel.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=112&Itemid=25)


Configuration

You can configure the plugin by clicking the button leftside top. I prefer
the settings You can see in the 2 windows of the screenshot.
There is also a config-file in each Skin-directory, there You can set
items as for example the color of the needles and more, more, more...

The VUmeter-Skins need a new Konfiguration-File for the new VUmeter-Plugin 1.0.0 to work properly!! I've made some new Skins for Download. More Skins for the new Plugin will follow. ~ ottlux

VM plugin is no longer available to Audacious 2.x, it is a pity.

ottlux

VUmeter plugin 1.0.0 works very well with Audacious 2.x !!! Download and Compile the new "VUmeter plugin 1.0.0" from http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=120568 and install the VUmeter Skins for Plugin 1.0.0 ~ ottlux

chaopoch

I just download analog-vu-meter-plugin-1.0.0-beta.tar.gz and get a error while configuring, checking for AUDACIOUS... no configure: error: *** Audacious >= 1.5.0 not installed - please install first *** however, I have Audacious 2.2-1 installed, so I just wonder if analog-vu-meter-plugin-1.0.0-beta is available for Audacious 2.x or not?

ottlux

You need to install the package "audacious-devel", when You compile the plugin from sources! ~ ottlux

ottlux

Thx. The System-Monitor is "GKrellM". (http://members.dslextreme.com/users/billw/gkrellm/gkrellm.html). Backgrounds for GKrellM are available under (http://www.muhri.net/gkrellm/). I use it with Plugins for Weather, Moon Clock, Volume and XMMS. ~ ottlux

Yeeze

Hey does anybody know the name of the window decoration theme, its visible in the second screen shot, where the buttons look like they are handwritten? I'm not talking about one of VUmeter skins, but of the window theme..! Iknow its a little late... Thanks for any help =)

ottlux

Hi, The Theme You are looking for is called "Crystal". You find it on KDE-Look: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Crystal?content=13969 It's beautiful, Enjoy it! ottlux

Absolutely gorgeous!

I don't succeed change my skin :-( I put extracted skin file in skin dir of XMMS, then I try to change skin in xmms (Alt-S>select new skin) but the skin doesn't change. The only skin changeable is default debian skin XMMS ver. is 1.2.10

ottlux

The Skin`s are for the "Analog VUmeter-plugin" of XMMS. You must differentiate between Player-Skin and VUmeter-Skin. To use other Player-Skins, put them into the skin directory of XMMS. To use VUmeter-Skins You have first to install or to compile the "Analog VUmeter-plugin" and to extract the VUmeter-Skins in the VU_Meter_skins directory. Try first some Player-Skins and activate them with ALT-S in XMMS. When You like the XMMS-Player and You want to have the additonal VUmeter-plugin, compile it. Go step by step through my Installation-guidance for the plugin and have also a look on other sides with explanations how to install the plugin: (http://www.vivaolinux.com.br/dicas/verDica.php?codigo=7789) (http://www.jellykernel.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=112&Itemid=25) Thank You for Your interest and I hope that will help You.

Thank you for reply. VUmeters plugin is ok and works well! I've complided VUMeter plugins and activate it. Very awesome!!! My prob., instead, is about xmms panel skins. All traditional skins work but not Almond or Digiblue or Expensive HiFi skins...

auato

Ok, ok I didn't understud :-) Skins are downloadable from links that you have noticed in your post (example for Expensive Hi-Fi http://www.1001skins.com/skin_details.html?skin_id=2728) Problem solved! Thanks a lot!
