Hi!

Good news, i've just released my last config iFoo v1.0.0 !

preview_ifoo_mini2.png

get it here

I hope you'll enjoy it ;)

I am new to Foobar after seeing another thread asking what is the best Audio player and was intrigued with this app. However I am having a lot of trouble locating most of the components needed for your config :( Is there a link somewhere that contains them all, or maybe a link as to where to obtain them all?

I did find this link .. http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=42730 .. but unfortunately it doesnt list the following,

foo_scrobblecharts.dll

foo_uie_vis_channel_spectrum.dll

foo_playcount_mod.dll

foo_uie_explorer.dll --> Cannot find any live links :(

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply, got everything now except the foo_uie_vis_channel_spectrum.dll :(

One other thing, how do I start/use the theme? I downloaded v1.1.0 and installed it into the PanelsUI folder, so there is now a folder called iFoo in that directory. When I started Foobar (0.9.5b5) I get the option of PanelsUI, ColumnsUI and default. Choosing panels doesnt load the theme, and choosing Columns gives and error so I have to delete the foobar2000.cfg under appdata/roaming/foobar2000 (I am using Vista Ultimate)

Sorry but I am a complete n00b with this software :(

FYI the error I get with columnsui is

---------------------------

Error

---------------------------

Unhandled exception : bad allocation

---------------------------

OK

---------------------------

Can someone please help me add a padding command in the following source code:

// PerSecond

$align(center,top)$font(calibri,15,bold,255-255-255)

ffffff%playback_time% - %length%$char(10)

//PerTrack

$align(left,bottom)$font(calibri,10,uppercase,255-255-255)

D7B997Title: ffffff%title%$char(10)

D7B997Artist: F3EAE0%artist%$char(10)

D7B997Album: F3EAE0%album%$char(10)

I want to add it for the bottom section, but I don't know where to put it, tried putting it between align and font commands but this made the text disappear, if I put $pad(0,0) in before align command this just adds a 0 before Title. Please help, I'm confused.

The track info panel is fine, but just needs the text to come away from edges a bit.

My latest simple layout. Just foobar2000 0.9.5 beta 5 and ColumnsUI. I don't use the media library, so need only a barebones setup. It uses system colors from a self-made 3dcc scheme, and a single headerless column for all track info including time. The rightmost button switches between showing and hiding playlist tabs.

Sounds like you are missing one or more of the required libraries for Columns UI. Look here under requirements and download the necessary libraries. Put them in your main foobar2000 folder (not the components folder).

Could you release that config? :)

I'm minimalistic wh0re, going back to plain ColumnsUI + Album List, functionality at its best.

Sure. Besides the (rather simple) layout it's just a single column with a custom title formatting string really. I've uploaded the fcl here, hope that has all you're looking for - it doesn't seem to include status bar formatting for instance. You'll probably need the latest betas of both foobar2000 and Columns UI to import it.

Haven't posted here in a while. Anyways, here is my Foobar config. :p

I'm still using your other config. Does this have the same features hidden away? Nifty Search, rating, and the browser pane?

Nope, not at the moment anyway. Gonna add rating and the new columns ui filter panel to the config soon though I think.

After using fb2k for a few months now and vacillating between the looks of Panels UI and the usability of Columns UI, I've finally found a happy compromise between the two :)

SCPL code is from FofR's wonderful Panels UI config.
