Thank you both.


thanks! it actually installed tonight via the app tool. though, i prefer to also keep local copies. this port is almost perfect --- it just needs the minimizing/ maximizing to work properly. right now, when i minimize, the app disappears, but still runs. overall, nice job!
Yep the minimize is really the missing point to make it a usable application.

Yes I tried the mad plugin. Works smoothly I compared with and without it running and it did seem to make it sound better. No hiccups. Not much to report in that, well, it works.
Also seen that the sound is not as good with mad plugin. I don't see how this could be. Maybe a combination with other effects. I have no clue yet about the differences mad/mpeg123.
Now for the fun part. With the new OS2008, XMMS works with BT headphones. A bit "noisy" still but dang it ... I've got BT headphones!
I tried to fetch some bluetooth headphones yesterday but didn't find them in a shop. I'll guess I'll order them by internet.


There are still problems to get my packages, I'll have to dig why exactly.
