Does anyone know how I make an autoplaylist that show the latest x number of files?

I'm not sure if this is what you requested for em3, but here goes

%title% $tab()'('%size%')'

No, I mean that I want a list showing the latest mp3s added to my library.

You need the plugin which automatically adds the date to every file added then you can call that up using autoplaylist.

I will never use plugins that alter my files. (N)

Err it just adds a field to the tag with the date ..

It doesn't matter how small the change is. A change is a change. And it shouldn't even be needed when the information is already present in the file properties. But Foobar for some reason can't read that. (N)

back to the question,

change columns ui layout as below

vertical splitter
|---album list panel
|---columns playlist

you get the idea.. play around

the change bg/text color, it's in album list panel preferences

track info panel, code for it

// title/artist:
$upper($if(%_trackinfo_notrack%,foobarffd9552000,$if2(%title%,%_filename%) [c0c0c0/ ffd955$meta_sep(artist,', ',' and ')]))

and how do make the square(the one with plus sign) white in colour (in the album list)

depends on visual style

and also when i selected text, how to do like on top.. (the part with GLITTERRING BLACKNESS) how do it like the one above, got two colours grey and whitish grey

depends on playlist config, if you wanna try it, download, load brumal-mod.fcs

and where can i get the buttons like above? thanks..

refer to several post above..

need libpng library, place them in foobar root folder

how do i update the album list? let say a new dir folder, how do i add into it? refresh tree view/list does not work.

add the album to the playlist, it will be added to the media library, then you can refresh the tree

and how do i change my msn displa from let say title - artist to artist - title

using this plugin?

pref > msn now playing > swap from {0} - {1} to {1} - {0}

OK, sorry for the questions, which I'm sure have been asked before, but I haven't found them as I've trolled through the 300 pages of this post:

1. In columns playlist, how do you group tracks from an album so that Artist, Album and Date are listed once to the left of the tracks?

2. I've tried to install the trackinfo dll, but I keep getting an error that it doesn't work with the current version (0.9.1). Any way to fix this?

3. I've downloaded files for buttons, and put them in foobar200 root folder, but when I right click>customise>Image:custom>browse, I have the wrong type of file. What should this file be, and do I have it in the right place?

Thanks for all the help! This forum is a great place for getting fb2k up and running.

I use this, make a column for album info, paste this in Display tab

$select(%tracknumber%,
%album artist% ,
%album% ,
[%date%][ ~ %genre%] ,
%codec% @ %bitrate%k [%codec_profile%] )

2. I've tried to install the trackinfo dll, but I keep getting an error that it doesn't work with the current version (0.9.1). Any way to fix this?

get from here: http://stephan.kochen.nl/proj/foobar2000.html#trackinfo

the file should be bmp or png
