Foobar2000 Customization Topic


Recommended Posts

hey! im fairly new to this forum but have been a guest reader for quite a long time now.

well now i have some questions about foobar .. hope somebody can help.

first of all i am using soap.fcs

i have the foo_uie_volume.dll in my components folder and the playlist sidebar enabled but i cant find the volume bar :s .. so i need help with that.

second question is how to display remaining time of a song in the status bar? can anyone post the code i have to put in global variables(?) or was is status bar formatting?

and finally my third question.. i enabled the rating column and have the foo_playcount.dll in the right folder but that also doesnt seem to work?!

well thank you ... calo- :D

EDIT: ok, counting works now but the rating seems a bit strange .. a file has been played once and gets 5 rating? here is the rating code:

$if(%_pc2rg_divider%,
$puts(xrating,$div(%play_time%,%_pc2rg_divider%)),
$puts(xrating,$if3(%rating%,%trackrating%)))
$ifgreater($get(xrating),6,$puts(xrating,6),)
$repeat(▪,$get(xrating))
%_lited%|%_lited%$repeat(▫,$sub(6,$get(xrating)))

shouldnt a file that has been played once have a low rating?

does this line in the global vars define the pc2rg_divider value?

$puts(pc2rg_divider,1)

Someone else should try what i did and just take configs from random posts and put them into foobar.

You get quite the odd program to work with. Mine shows a playlist..and is missing everything else (Inlcuding File, Options, etc) :'D

heh...obivously my post was misread.

The database is enabled and directed properly.  If I open the Albumlist my albums and misc show up perfectly fine.  Those dlls I listed allow you to add a sidebar to columns_ui and within that sidebar have tabbed windows.  I'm trying to use foo_uie_albumlist.dll (or Albumlist Panel) to add my albumlist window to that sidebar tabbed panel.  The options for Albumlist and DBexplorer formatting show up in foobar options but NOT IN RIGHTCLICK 'ADD-> PANEL' menu in tabbed sidebar

like in this screenshot...albumlist in sidebar.

Enable it in Preferences->Display->Columns UI->Sidebar options.

I should be grateful if you would tell me how to get the "played x times, Last Time Played" message in the status area at the bottom.

$puts(lasttime,$if(%play_date%,'Last Time Played: '%play_date%' @ '%play_time%))

Problem is, it's already enabled there. But the little space to the left where it should be, when I right click on it, nothing happens....

I might just uninstall and reinstall, it'd prolly be easiest.

You need to LEFT CLICK, at least right clicks have no effect here neither.

Anyway, if this was not your problem, try to install the lastest Columns_UI.

You can always check the "Preference->Component Libraries" to see if some component has failed to laod and can be causing some probs.

......

Very nice config/colors you have Orestes.

Thank you so much for the code, Krpano.

However, I cannot get it to work. I am not sure where to paste it. Is this the right section:

Sry, im using a bit more data there....

for u, this would be enough

$if(%play_date%,'Last Time Played: '%play_date%' @ '%play_time%)

Dont forget u still need the component "foo_playcount" to use that string, if im not wrong.

:shifty:

ohhhh, right... yup. kind of a dumb mistake, i thought that the little resize arrow was to resize the entire window, but i just had the sidebar resized so that you can't even see it. thanks.
