OsdFoo is an external plugin for XMMS. OsdFoo provides several OSD functions: the title currently played, a volume bar, a balance bar, a clock, and the date.

It has been designed to Display the Current title, and a couple of other information on the screen via osd.

To make OsdFoo show the title after songchange simply put "osdfoo -t" into xmms
Songchange plugin.

To show volume- and balancechanges of xmms start osdfoo -x in any terminal or simply put it into your ~/.xsession.

If you want OsdFoo to display a Clock in the top left corner of your screen, use osdfoo -c, the same way you'd use osdfoo -x.

Configuration mode is not yet implemented.

If the supplied binary doesn't work, try "rm osdfoo && make" .
