Foobar2000 Customization Topic


Recommended Posts

I'm not using foobar 0.9 full-time until it gets more plug-ins ported over, but i couldn't help playing around with it, so.

foobar091oz.th.jpg

Single-disc/single-artist album on top, single tracks in the middle, multi-disc/multi-artist album on the bottom. All the other jazz like trackinfo and seek bar and buttons and stuff are in the side bar (which is hidden in the screen shot but can be re-enabled with the blue button at the top or by pressing F4).

Go into the Columns UI options and find the Layout tab. Right-click whatever's in the list, change the base to a vertical splitter. Then insert more stuff until your layout looks something like this (make adjustments if you have other panels you want to use obviously):

vertical splitter
|
|---horizontal splitter
|   |
|   |---browser
|   |
|   |---browser
|   |
|   |---browser
|   |
|   |---browser

|---play list

What code do you use to distinguish albums and single tracks? What about multi-disc/multi artist?

Heh, basically asking for your .fcs ;) But any tips would be appreciated!

I don't normally share my configuration files, since i'm a jerk like that, but i can answer your questions....

To decide whether a track is single or not it checks for (1) an album name and (2) a track number (because why do you need track numbers if you don't have the whole album?):

//  used to set 'single' status
$if($not($and(%tracknumber%,%album%)),$set_global(single,1),$set_global(single,0))

The disc thing is pretty much unnecessary for me because i create sub-folders for discs (/album/disc 01/, /album/disc 02/, et cetera) and i sort by directory after album title, but i kind of went out of my way to get the disc number next to the album title. :bobomb: It checks to see if there's either (1) a disc tag or (2) a disc folder. If either is true it just replaces the numerals with words. (Only up to five discs, but i'm not worried about going over that since i think the biggest album i have is only three or four.)

//  figure out if it's multi-disc
$if($or(%disc%,$stricmp($left(%_directoryname%,6),'disc 0')),$puts(multidisc,1),$puts(multidisc,0))

$if($stricmp($get(multidisc),1),

$if($or($stricmp($num(%disc%,1),1),$stricmp(%_directoryname%,'disc 01')),$puts(discdisplay,'disc one'))
$if($or($stricmp($num(%disc%,1),2),$stricmp(%_directoryname%,'disc 02')),$puts(discdisplay,'disc two'))
$if($or($stricmp($num(%disc%,1),3),$stricmp(%_directoryname%,'disc 03')),$puts(discdisplay,'disc three'))
$if($or($stricmp($num(%disc%,1),4),$stricmp(%_directoryname%,'disc 04')),$puts(discdisplay,'disc four'))
$if($or($stricmp($num(%disc%,1),5),$stricmp(%_directoryname%,'disc 05')),$puts(discdisplay,'disc five'))
$get_global(c_dim2)|$get_global(c_dim2)$get(discdisplay)
,
$get_global(c_dim2)|$get_global(c_dim2)'???'
)

ps cream :rocks:

Do you mind shairng your fcs and what plugins it needs to setup it? I love the Artist, Album and Title panels. Does it require the Media Library enable?

that display thingy you're referring to is the track info panel in action

dload here, http://stephan.kochen.nl/proj/foo_uie_trac...e_trackinfo.dll (for v0.9)

to have yours displayed like mine, apply the code that follows

$char(1)C%title%
$char(10)$char(1)CElapsed Time: %_time_elapsed%
$puts(xdimmed,8C8C8C)
$char(10)
$char(1)C$get(xdimmed) 
$if($stricmp($left(%_path_raw%,7),'http://'),'[' %_time_elapsed% ']',
$progress2(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,%_time_total_seconds%,25,|,$get(xdimmed)|) $muldiv(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,100,%_time_total_seconds%)'%')

How do i get that now playing thing under the toolbar?

I believe its a custom foo_uie_trackinfo string with an extra large font. It was posted about 10 pages back.

Sorry if this has already been asked, but a quick scan didnt show anything. Basically im having no luck getting any new buttons to show up in foobar 0.9, importing any of the fcb's just results in the original buttons vanishing and being replaced by a blank space, if i mess with the settings a little i can get text to show up, but never any button images. Any ideas?

Thanks

Did you install the .dlls from the libpng128-zlib123.7z pack?
