Music visualisations... - arad85 - 2021-04-24

I don't play music that often and visualisations used to work...

I am running Ubuntu 18.04, with a window manager and run Kodi full-screen on an Intel internal graphics engine. Just upgraded to v19. When I play music, no visualisations are available - the list just shows "None", yet the log shows them as available (see below). Any idea how to get them back?

I am running Kodi 19 and when I click on Get More under visualization it bring up a list to choose from.  I tested both Kodi 19 on windows and LibreElec on a Raspberry Pi 4.

I don't have a Get More under visualisation (assuming when you are playing music and you go into the settings menu). Just Cancel...


RE: Music visualisations... - jbinkley60 - 2021-04-25

I am going into Settings->Player->Music->Visualization then doing a Get More.  This is before I play any music.  I believe you need to load them here and then they become available when you play music.  That worked for me.

Thanks.

I have 

None (reset music visualisatiosn) and a single button - Cancel.


RE: Music visualisations... - jbinkley60 - 2021-04-25

Did you try Addons->Look and Feel->Visualization to see if they might be disabled ?  If they are disabled they won't show up.  At least they didn't in my testing.

Yay!!!!!!!!! Thanks Jeff. That fixed it. I would never have looked in there!

Glad that fixed it for you.
