Heilan is a cross-platform OpenGL X3D browser written in C and designed for audiovisual performance. Specifically, it forms the environment within which I developed an audiovisual instrument (Ashitaka) for my PhD. As such, it has a number of features not commonly found in X3D browsers:
Low latency audio courtesy of PortAudio (ASIO, DirectX, MME on Windows; Jack, ALSA, OSS on Linux; CoreAudio on OSX).
A 1st order B-format Ambisonic audio engine, allowing for full 3d sound, capable of accommodating virtually any speaker configuration.
Open Sound Control support for all nodes, allowing a node's attributes to be manipulated in realtime, potentially by multiple users.
A multi-threaded audio engine, able to split off different nodes' audio processing into separate threads (and potentially, separate cpus/cores). This can be configured by the scene author.
Rip DVD discs to the desired file format.
This program lets you convert videos to various media formats.
Rips media from DVD and creates disk copies.
CoverScout fills the gray gaps that iTunes leaves behind!
Edits audio files with the option for CD mastering.
This program enables you to convert video files to various output profiles.
