Xion Audio Player

Wednesday, February 21, 2007 by IRaidedTheFridge | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I've been using xion audio player for awhile now, ( http://xion.r2.com.au/ )and I really wish wincustomize would make a section for it. The cool thing about it is that it is amazingly easy to skin since it takes raw .psd files, and creates the skin. All you have to do is name the layer with the play button "play", etc. Here's a skin i recently made for it:

I like 'Thump' better, especially as FLA is played there.

Your skin was one of the better ones I saw there.
Unless I'm behind the times...WMP cant use the translucency elements I see here.  I gotta try this.

Carl...what do you mean 'thump'?Is that a skinnable media player?

I don't really use skinned mediaplayers cause I keep it minimized all the time anyway.

But I love the skinning engine in this. Skins which are PSD files. Great. I think it's worthy of a WC section.

Yeah I love that program...

PS- if anybody wants to play around with Xion a little bit, I recommend going into the forums and grabbing the latest beta since they have more features.

It all becomes clear now Carl.  

I like how this player installs new skins,just drop the zip with the Ps file onto the player and it switches.

Looks like I can finally do my analog vu meters with this.  
It'll be huge,it'll suck cpu cycles...clog the screen!I dont care...they will finally work.

haha Actually xion usually doesn't use above 3% of your CPU unless you have some crazy massive skin!

So what's the actual criteria for adding a new section in wincustomize.com? Xion would be a nice add since the whole thing was literally made to be skinned!

The app needs to be popular, alive, and thus prominent, really.

I think the skinning 'method' makes it a contender....[and the 'au' in the addy doesn't hurt....wink]...
