For the latest & greatest AVSynthesis you need to use LWJGL 1.1.4, Java
SDK 1.6, OpenGL, and Csound5.08. Csound must be compiled for
double-precision and with the Java wrapper (csnd.jar and
lib_jcsound.so). All DLLs must be replaced by their .so equivalents. You
can get the necessary components in pre-compiled packages for 32-bit
systems, but you'll need to compile most of it yourself if you want to
use it under a 64-bit system. It can be tedious.

Obviously you'll need a good video card with 3D acceleration. I use an
nVidia 7600GS w. 512 MB VRAM, seems to work nicely.

The Linux Journal will eventually publish a rather long article I wrote
about AVS. More detail is included there, but the information above is
the brief instruction. :)

Stability is a problem, but it may be due to bugs in Cs5, not in AVS.
Jean-Pierre reports that his Windows version is quite stable, but he's
using a slightly customized version of Csound.

Feel free to write to me off-list if you'd like more information (unless
other people here want to follow the thread).

Best,

dp
