Foobar2000 Customization Topic


Recommended Posts

Finally got round to giving foobar2000 a try. :)

Given a few more days it may replace Winamp as my default player.

It was a beast to customise, but I'm pretty pleased with what I've ended up with; and it does things I've always wanted to be able to do that Winamp couldn't. Now if only someone could make it cook my dinner. :laugh:

It would be helpful if there were some more customisable Samurize things for it. Anyone got any recomendations? The built in one continually tells me that I am playing a track named 'uninteresting', and AMPI doesn't seem to work... :huh:

edit: :) no need... Found it :happy:

This is the most complex(more like complicated) program I have ever used.. Wow it took 7 hours to get it to work and I still only have this :laugh:

I don't exactly know how to make everything myself, but I have figured out how to use some of the tagz and edit other people's code.. Just wondering.. how long did it take you guys to config this thing ;) ?

:Edit: - Another couple half-hour later...

So my current foobar changed a bit

But I'm trying to get this to work, I see that some of you guys have a huge spectrum analyzer (like the one in on the top part instead of on the side panel, but when I put it on it won't get bigger than this? Does anyone know how to change this? Because when I do change it, it turns into what it looks like in Screenshot 3

I think once I get that then finally I'll be able to make a new/find a better info and then change the colours a bit so they match :D

Oh, I really like that font on screenshot 3 on the column titles, may I ask what it is?

EDIT: There a code for centering text?

If you have foo_playcounter.dll it is, %last_played% and %play_counter%

It doesn't seem to work. Using columnsUI, I only get question marks in the appropriate column.

edit: nevermind

right click on an area at the top of foobar, e.g. next to components. Then you can add your desired panels.

After that, disable your sidebar in preferences

Would anyone, that use almost all plugins, be kind enough to upload their foobar2000 folder or something like that? :whistle:

It should be around 2Mb in size (maximum). ;)

I'm totally new in scripting stuff so you imagine how much I'm lost?!?! :wacko: Some might say that I just need to learn but fact is, I'm not really interested into that kind of stuff but I am sure in need for the best audio player on my computer! :yes:

Please be kind & thanks in advance!

Just in case anyone is interested, I found this very useful for sorting out results from the album list plugin:

Preferences > Core

In the "Sort incoming files" box paste this

$if2(%album artist%,[%artist%])|%date%|$if2(%album%,[%venue%])|[%disc%]|%_lowerext%|$num(%tracknumber%,3)|%_path_raw%

Now when viewing files using search or album list, they will be sorted logically instead of by path!

Panels across the top will need to have a minimum height set too, or they'll just be all squashed up at the top. ;)

For some reason you can't resize the top bit vertically.
