well..

it's more like

$tab()$upper(%title%/$rgb(some,colour,here)%artist%)$tab()

background colour too match bottom-most colour of titlebar (although in my screenshot it is slightly off :p )

Arial for the font, size 14 i think (i've changed my layout since then), white

trackinfo panel is edgeless, so that it seemlessly blends with titlebar

Like it quite a bit more then your previous ones and like the implemention of topdownjimmys(?) last played code. Think I might end up using something simular to your look...if not actually yours when/if you post it :shiftyninja:

Still in progress. Didn't like the playlist dropdown, browser combination, so went back to my usual playlist switcher.

is it possible to get the information in the track panel info plugin to be on 1 line and scrolling across?

Sorry, I don't know the exact code.

But there are some guys who make animated stickymans and such using the $select-function. You should look that up.

You'll need the foo_playcount plugin to keep track of play count. Then make an autoplaylist

with the query %play_counter% LESS 1.

how do i make an auto playlist, what is the difference between that and a normal playlist?

Auto playlists are like smart playlists in itunes. They automatically update with changes to your media library.

You may need to download the autoplaylist plugin here http://foobar2000.org/components/index.html.

Once that's installed, you should have an option under the Library menu for autoplaylists.

How do you get the playlist looking like that i.e. album, artist etc all grouped into one neat box next to all the tracks for that album?

EDIT: Nevermind, been so long since I've played with my playlist setup, I didn't realise all I had to do was apply an album-view config.

However how do you get the browser list at the side looking so nice?

And is there any way of making single tracks look nice with the album-view (i.e. not just having a gaping blank where the album, artist etc info should be?)

Thanks!

I have a problem with foobar: every time I try to put custom buttons, it only shows empty space. What should I do? I am using v0.9.1.

Thanks.

Hi all, I'm someone who's switched players quite a few times. Foobar now matches my needs PERFECTLY. Small memory footprint, simple yet customisable, and actually the best way for me (personally) to view my files - by directory.

Right now as you may have guessed I am running a basic install, with just Columns UI (absolutely essential, of course :)) and pretty much the stuff that comes in the installer. I'd say I'm a pretty advanced PC user, just not with foobar (just to let you know)...yet. Whilst writing this I've downloaded foo browser too.

What I'm aiming for with my foobar setup is a light blue-type feel, maybe with dark blue sections. I'll try and figure as much as I can out from existing documentation, but if not hopefully you lot can give me a bit of help with it.

I guess this is a kind of heads up that I will be about.

One last thing....any tips you can give me with customisation or anything else?

Mike.

I'm sorry to bother, but can anyone tell me where to find documentation on Columns UI's layout presets thing (the splitters and panels part which I can't understand at all)?

I want to have it iTunes style (Artists panel, them Album next to it -- both on top of the playlist, which exibits songs according to the current selection in the panels). I've found the foo_browser component, which is supposed to allow you to do the things I mentioned. So far all I could accomplish is a single top-side panel (the type - artists, genre, album, etc. can be selected with shift + right mouse button) with the playlist in the bottom.

It just doesn't strike as something very intuitive... any tips?
