Always start with Spectrum Visualization?

Postby nousndthem » 10 Jul 2016 18:32

Hi there, ( Version 2.0.1 here )

Is there a way to get VLC to always start with the Spectrum Visualization for audio playlists?

I tried 2.2.4 but it was more problematic when loading a visualization manually in that it kept resizing the window
and didn't look as good with spectrum, so I rolled back to 2.0.1.

Also, if it's not possible, please let me know.

Thanks!

Steve

Did you check the advanced preferences, audio tab?

Yes. Not much in there other than stuff about goom etc ...

Are you implying that it can be done and maybe you've done it?

...well I did a screen grab of it but there seems to be no option for attachments here ...
ok - uploaded to my host ...

I've tried every possibility that I can think of.
Maybe some one here can tell me if it's possible and how to do it.

Thank you ...

Can you be more specific?
I have this set as you see but find nothing called "visualizer one"

Can you tell me where it is?

Thank you!

Hi there,
Sorry for not starting a new thread but the question below is a continuation of the above, as I had to come back here to figure out how to do the above on a new OS install.
I've got the above accomplished but would also like to:

Is there a way to force the window size to be smaller vertically for audio playback when using the spectrum visualization?

Thank you!

Steve

Update for clarity:

How to set "spectrum" as default visualization.

Tools > Preferences > ALL (at the bottom left) > Visualizations > Visualizer
In the Effects List line type "spectrum" (without the " ") all other boxes are checked.
