iTunes Visualizer
ITunes Visualizer. The visuals change automatically in synchronicity with the music as if the sound itself paints a moving picture. Our challenge in producing iTunes visualizers was to aim to create visualizers with a charm that had not yet existed. The visualizer was feeling something. Soon enough, devotees were downloading tricked-out, custom-made visualizers to wow their fellow stoners, and Apple would eventually update their own to something a bit smoother and slicker. In fact, they bought another developer’s version, called “Magnetosphere,” and built it into iTunes 8.

Our challenge in producing iTunes visualizers was to aim to create visualizers with a charm that had not yet existed.
To begin with we may experiment with visualizers that lack functionality or variety however these lay a base for future development and improvement.
In the end we will make approximately 20 visualizers downloadable for your enjoyment.
Itunes Visualizer For Mac
Quartz Composer
For the production of our visualizers we utilized a tool called Quartz Composer. This is one of the developer tools of Mac OS X which enables us to create motion graphics in a real-time environment.
The visualizers that we have made public at this time can only be viewed within mac OS X. However, sample movies of each visualizer are freely available on their respective pages.
FreeWare
All the visualizers are freeware for personal use. Please feel free to download and enjoy.

System Requirements:
Mac Audio Visualizer
“Cover Version” is available for Mac OS X and Windows.
The Mac OS X version is built for Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) and above.The Windows version runs on Windows 2000, Windows XP and above.
iTunes Version 12.6.1 (or greater) is required.
How to install: Escape from tarkov discord server.
Mac OS X: Put the file CoverVersion into the folder 'Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins/' of your home directory. (Note that the Library folder in your home directory is hidden since Mac OS X Lion.)
Windows: Put the file CoverVersion.dll inside a directory called 'Plug-Ins'. This directory must be next to the iTunes.exe. If the directory does not exist, it might be necessary to create it.
If the visualizer menu does not appear in iTunes or a message says that the plug-in cannot be loaded in 64-bit mode, you also might need to install 'Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013' on your Windows computer.
After launching iTunes again, the “Cover Version” visualizer can be activated with the “View” > “Visualizer” menu.
How to customize:
Options of the visualizer can be set by opening the configuration window at “View” > “Visualizer” > “Options..”.
| Cover: | The album artwork can be animated as a flapping flag, as a rotating cuboid, as a kaleidoscope, with Vertigo effect, or as a sliding pane. |
| Track: | The font that displays track artist and title can be changed. |
| Lyrics: | The text of the lyrics can be displayed centered or left-aligned. The color of the font that displays the lyrics can be adjusted. |
| Update: | With 'Check For Update On Start' activated, the visualizer checks whether there is an update available online when it starts to display in iTunes. A notification is shown in case an update is found. |
Preferences:
Mac OS X: “Cover Version” stores its preferences in the file 'de.imagomat.coverversion.plist'. The file is located inside your preferences folder of your home directory ('~/Library/Preferences/').
Windows: “Cover Version” stores its preferences in the file 'Preferences.txt'. The file is located inside the 'Documents and Settings{username}Application DataImagomatCoverVersion' directory of your system volume. To see and access the file you may have to turn on “Show hidden files and folders” (View settings of “Windows Explorer”’s Folder Options).
If you have problems with “Cover Version”’s preferences you can always delete the preference file. “Cover Version” will use its default preferences if it does not find a preference file.
Notice:
“Cover Version” does not fetch any audio meta data over the internet. Neither album cover artwork is fetched nor lyrics are added automatically.
“Cover Version” displays artwork and lyrics as they are embedded within the iTunes audio track.
You can check to see if the current audio track has embedded album cover artwork by clicking the button with the symbol . Lyrics can be edited with the information of the audio track.
Techniques:
“Cover Version” uses OpenGL for rendering the image data of the album artwork. The image data is accessed by calling iTunes’ API for visual plug-ins. Due to a limitation of the API only one cover is accessible.
The track title is also rendered with OpenGL calls. The glyphs are Unicode-savvy. The font shape is generated with Windows and Mac OS system specific functions. The bitmap data is transferred into OpenGL texture memory.
License and Availability:
“Cover Version” is freeware.
