SRS WOW Effect for VLC (like Windows Media Player)

Postby Terrum » 04 Mar 2009 12:44

SRS WOW Effect is good in windows media player, But the equalizer in VLC isn't really that good. Having a SRS WOW Effect for VLC to have a good bass and wow for my headphones. I like VLC much more than Windows media player because it's so lightweight and less ram usage. Hope you can add this feature :)

Simple: My Feature Request is having a SWS WOW Effect on VLC related to Windows Media Player's.

SRS WOW is a product of SRS Labs. I doubt they will release source code or algorithm of SRS WOW under GPL, LGPL or similar license.

Hm after a few researching, Your right. But how come WMP do it free then? And if it can be added to VLC, Maybe you could sell the script with VLC instead so it's not free. If you get what i mean.

Microsoft either paid for SRS Labs or they asked it to be include in WMP. And VLC cannot run for example WMP or Winamp plugins because the architecture is different. So best option would be contact SRS and ask them to do VLC plugin.

Yeah SRS Seems to just suck anyway. But maybe a request - a better equalizer which has a better bass/treble boost preset?
