mMuh Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 (edited) Uhm, i'm kind of new to skinning my own theme to Foobar, and I'm stuck editing some tagz. This is probably an easy one, but: how do you make the first track of an album in a playlist a different color than all the other items? By the way, what is to prefer tagz or tagscript? And also, is there a tagzeditor with highlight and such? Edited February 7, 2006 by mMuh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miscellanea Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I really appriciate your work but it's not exactly what I'm looking for. I would prefer it just to show the albums without having the year folders showing. Is that possible?? you can remove "%date%|" from that code, but it disables chronological ordering. another idea is $if2(%album artist%,%artist%)|'['%date%'] '%album%|$tracknumber(). Anyway, without using %date% (and displaying it) we can't sort chronologically. I can't really use the code here as I'm using Navigator fcs and there is already code in there which I can't change. I would ideally prefer a code similar to $if2(%album artist%,%artist%)%date%%album%$tracknumber() which I can use in the autoplaylist sort section and would just remove the "the" from artists. about autoplaylist : it's in 0.9 beta... are you using 0.9 beta? how do you make the first track of an album in a playlist a different color than all the other items? I'm using this. $if($strcmp($num(%tracknumber%,2),01),'first track colour','other colour') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad you don't know where I live, if you did you would probably come round and give me a slap for causing you all this hassle :D, anyway to answer your question, yes I'm using the beta (for what seems like forever :)).I wasn't aware you couldn't sort chronologically in the album list panel without showing the dates, oh well I might give it a go and see how it works for a while. Is there anyway of getting the "The's" to show in the panel instead of removing them??? As for the sort string for the autoplaylist, the string above doesn't quite work. I'll say what I want and see if it's possible. Ideally I would like it sorted by: 1. Artist (with bands like The Beatles under B and compilation disks with various artists (using the album artist tag) sorted under V 2. Albums then sorted chronologically and by the discnumber tag. Possible??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know how to get the autoplaylist to display things if I know exactly what it's supposed to be i.e. all my singles have a SINGLE tag which is set to true so in autoplaylist I search for single IS true and it displays all my singles, I don't know how I would go about getting it to display tracks without replaygain info though. Any ideas?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee G. Veteran Posted February 10, 2006 Veteran Share Posted February 10, 2006 Hi. I'm new to Foobar2000 (well I've heard of it a couple of years ago but haven't actually used it before). I think I'm going to make a permanent switch from Winamp. Could someone please upload the tbar_foo plugin? The download site doesn't work and I can't find a mirror :/ Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are using 0.83 then the link below will work, if you are using the beta then I'm sorry your SOL :) Playlist - Playlist Find should be what you are looking for. Album Art - I can't be certain but I would think you could, it's been that long since I have used it I can't remember :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cream Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 the album art question: is it possible to make foo_ui_albumart not search for album art for single songs? You could try putting all the singles in one directory and making the "folder.jpg" image the same color as your window so that it looks empty... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badtz-Maru Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Is there a script to add a volume control feature to foobar2000? Otherwise, this is a wonderful program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acedriver Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 If you use column ui, you can add a volume control toolbar. Download it here or, use -/+ in the numpad to adjust the volume.. make sure to add volume control in active DSP in the DSP manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
