Project M Visualizer

Help and Support Vero 4K / Vero 4K +

I wonder if it’s possible or likely that someone would consider compiling a Project M Visualizer add-on for KODI/OSMC. It seems like something doable, but not with my zero coding/compiling skills…

It’s in the LibreELEC Repository, although I can’t state that for any hardware platform other than x86 generic…

For reference:
Project M Thread on KODI Forum

It doesn’t work for EGL based platforms.

Ahhh, that’s a shame. Are there any other visualizations that can be installed on the Vero 4k/KODI/OSMC?

Thanks Sam!
Robert

Only the ones currently available unfortunately

Ok, but I’m not seeing any listed at all. Nothing in the KODI Repository and I don’t see an OSMC Repository. Is that something I have to add as a zip file first or should it be visible in the standard install?

Cheers,

They are binary add-ons and already included with OSMC.

Oh, OK. Yeah, I don’t have a clue what that means… I assume they have to be compiled by the user and that’s beyond the capabilities of my pea-brain.

No – they’re already included in OSMC.

The reason you can’t find them in a repo is that they’re already installed. But they’re disabled.

Ok, if you say so…! I’ve searched for them until the buttons fell off my remote. I see lots of installed but disable add-ons, such as languages and PVR clients but I see no visualizations. Could you point me to any documentation or throw out a clue for me to follow?:smile:

Cheers,

Save the buttons of your remote, it might be that on a latest build they might have been not included for whatever reason.
Which version of OSMC are you on?

OK.

ShaderToy add-ons for example should have been introduced here:

I see no Shader Toys listed anywhere, nor a visualizations category. Clearly I’ve overslept and it’s the first of April.

No worries, might be fixed in the next update

I’ve taken a quick look at this after @fzinken pointed out some problems.

Visualisations and screensavers were indeed missing (Shadertoy).
I tried to reinstate them:

Unfortunately they are not ready for prime time just yet.

Sorry for the wild goose chase.

No worries Sam, thanks for confirming I haven’t entirely lost my marbles…

Cheers,

No worries.

It may however seem that I have lost mine.

Keep your eyes peeled for improvements.
