Left/right arrow keys stop working

[ghost]

The left/right keys stop working after, for example, the text "Dragon Heart" is displayed in the top-left corner.

$ ./vsxu_player

This is because one of the visuals don't work.
We haven't been able to test AMD on Linux, so it's not supported currently.
Might look at this for next patch though.
If you disable randomizer (R) key, and hit (F) key, you should be able to see which one it is.

If you do, I might have a clue :)

Hitting (F) key displayed:

• "Loading in background: Fabric of Sound"
• "Loading in background: Exploding Star"

At least in the 2nd case: The "RAM usage (total)" field keeps going up by 1MB/second. CPU usage is about 95%, while normal CPU usage is 5-30%.

As I have encountered the same issue, I am wondering if there is a way to exclude not working visualizers from loading.

[ftoledo]

i have same behavior, the visualizer sems to work with music..but just stop the left/right key handle to change next...
