Foobar2000 Customization Topic


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I'm using foobar looks(see attached image) and since I'm using a bar, I'd rather have it always on top, the problem is that everytime I re-open foobar, even though the "always on top" fucntion is ticked on, it doesn't work so I have to tick it off then on again to get it working, any ideas?

eastman, this is a known bug of foo_looks

we just discussed this in the foobar forum and theres a little workaround for it that seems to work.

you must add a new script file (call it bug.ski or whatever) to your skin with this content:

lua stayAOT  
function onattach()
     fb2k_menuCommand('Components/Look/Show/Always on Top')
    fb2k_menuCommand('Components/Look/Show/Always on Top')  
end  
endlua        

lua stayAOT2  
delay=true  
function onupdateplayerstatus(this)
  if delay then
  fb2k_menuCommand('Components/Look/Show/Always on Top')
   fb2k_menuCommand('Components/Look/Show/Always on Top')
   delay=false
  end
        end  
endlua

then you must import this file in your skin with

import bug.ski

I have a picture to illustrate what i'm talking about

foobar-config.jpg

Is it possible to control those colours from the global tab? I have a few colour schemes set up to match various msstyles and it's a real pain to have to change those settings manually each time.

You must enable database to get the treeview to work, foobar2000>preferences>database>database enabled

Then you must edit the string for the view, foobar2000>prefereces>components>database explorer panel, and change it to whatever you like.

If you are too lazy to write your own, here's the one I use: $if(%various%,Various,%genre%)|$if(%various%,%album%,%artist%)|$if(%various%,,%album%)

*edit*

didn't see mitchmalibu's post. sorry
