Palace is a visualization plugin for XMMS that offers an efficient way to visualize music in a creative and engaging manner.
Palace is a versatile plugin that can be used in conjunction with various hardware devices. Some of the devices that are compatible with Palace are Discolitez or any other device that can be connected to the parallel port. More information can be obtained by emailing the developer of Palace using the email address provided in the README file of the latest version.
Palace is designed to be much more than just an XMMS plugin for controlling a light show. The overall goal is to provide a generic device control infrastructure that can be used for both hobby and commercial purposes. To achieve this, Palace will be transitioned to a fully modular design so that it can interact with clients and servers through a generic plug-in interface.
The initial goal of Palace is to be a powerful XMMS parallel port light show plugin that can rival the DiscoLitez light show plugin for WinAmp. However, Palace aims to evolve into a comprehensive control system that can support various server and client plugins. Some of the possible server plugins include DMX-512 output for controlling professional lighting equipment, laser/stepper motor, parallel port, and generic DAC. The client plugins include XMMS visualization plugin, security system control software, and other automation software.
To use Palace, the user needs to have XMMS installed. The latest release of Palace fixed several issues that affected the configuration options, LPT addresses, and graphics output.
Overall, Palace is a useful visualization plugin that can be used with XMMS. With its modular design, Palace aims to become a comprehensive device control infrastructure that can support various server and client plugins.
