XMMS2 For Mac

You might have heard of XMMS (xmms.org), the hugely popular Winamp clone for Linux and UNIX-like operating systems.

XMMS2 is a project started (in late 2002) by one of XMMS's original authors - Peter Alm - to produce a "kick-ass music player" (much like the world's 347349739921 other music player projects). In short, XMMS2 is the next generation XMMS.

XMMS2 is definitely an audio player. But it is not a general multimedia player - it will not play videos. XMMS2 has a modular framework and plugin architecture for audio processing, output and visualization, but this framework has not been designed to support video.

Also the client-server design of XMMS2 (and the daemon being independent of any graphics output) practically prevents direct video output being implemented.

·Download and install Macports ·Install sqlite through macports with the command: "port install sqlite3". Now you should be good to compile xmms2 on your Mac OS X Tiger by running "./waf configure && ./waf && sudo ./waf install" in a terminal window, after changing the working directory to the unpacked directory containing the source.
