For those who dont know, foobar is an audio player made for best performance using less resources as possible, not too long ago 1 month aprox i switched to it and its really amazing, tho it leaks of customization, you can skin it with some plug ins but loses the performace, now i made this topic so we all can share our foobar2k styles or playlist customizations here is mine

Pm me if you want the code for playlist, its a bit long :)

People dont PM me for this configs, i dont have them anymore...

Here's the playlist code for anyone who wants it.

$num(%_playlist_number%,$len(%_playlist_total%)).

$if2(%artist%,unknown artist)

$tab(3)

$if(%album%,%album%[ #[%disc%/]$num(%tracknumber%,2)],'n/a')

$tab(3)

$if2(%title%,%_filename_ext%)

$tab(4)

$if(%_isplaying%,'|> ')

[['['$if2(%__codec%,$upper($ext(%_path%)))']' ]$pad_right(%_length%,5,0)]

Download Column UI, extract the contents of the zip file into your foobar/components directory.

Download Azrael config from this page. Extract the file into your folder of choice, preferably the foobar folder. For more Azrael color config go to Azrael documentation page.

Run foobar, go to its preferences, and select ColumnsUI as the "User Interface Module" under the "Display" section in the options window. Restart foobar.

Go to preferences > Display > ColumnsUI" subsection, select "import" from that screen and import Azrael.

Once that is imported change the playlist and statusbar fonts found on the same screen (Display -> ColumnsUI). Set them to Lucida Grande Unicode.

For custom button, get it from here. Change it in Display -> ColumnsUI > select "Use custom buttons".

Is there a way to make it so that when it's going to the next song it fades in and out instead of stopping nd starting?

Sure, I believe the crossfading plugin comes with the special edition of Foobar.

Hi guys,

First of all go download ColumnsUI.

Once you do that extract the contents of the zip file into your foobar/components directory.

Next get the Eriks.fcs config file for ColumnsUI (in file attached to this post).

Extract the file into your folder of choice, preferably the foobar folder.

Now you can run foobar, go to its preferences, and select ColumnsUI as the "User Interface Module" under the "Display" section in the options window.

Restart foobar; now the ColumnsUI should be active. Go to preferences again, from the "Display" section go to the "ColumnsUI" subsection, and select "import" from that screen. Here you will find the Eriks.fcs file you downloaded earlier. Once that is imported change the playlist and statusbar fonts found on the same screen (Display -> ColumnsUI that is).

The buttons are those allready mentioned (you can get it here).

But I've changed them a bit to match better my WB skin (if you wish I can send them to you by mail).

The frame around is from my WB own theme (that is a compilation of different schemes, just used for my own purposes, as I can not publish it, cause it is others job and credits).

For other details - visit these threads: "First one", "Second one" and the others having foobar ColumnsUI in subject.

In case of problems - just PM me.

to jack_canadian:

you lazy guy :) , just becouse you have similiar name ;) - check your e-mail for my foobar folder contents..

    • New Surface Pro with Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 leaks ahead of announcement

      By dirtyvu · Posted

      I'm hoping with the Surface Pro 12, I can use either USB-C for my Xreal One Pro glasses. With my Surface Pro 11 OLED X Elite, I have to plug them into the top port. The bottom port will power it, but nothing shows on the screen. Maybe it's my setting. When I plug in the glasses, I have it output only to the glasses. So maybe I need to turn on both displays with it in the top port, then switch the glasses to the bottom port and set it to output only to the glasses. And then hopefully Windows remembers the settings for either the top port and bottom port (one of the awesome features of Windows where it remembers the exact configuration when plugging in external monitors.

      Forgive my ignorance, but the only difference I see here is that a USB-A is now a USB-C, so there are two of them. For the modern age (and I'd argue since 2020), most products would now come with USB-C as an option, if not the default. Display, charging, devices, etc on TWO connectors, sometimes all combined! So having 2 of those powerful ports is great for something this size! Meanwhile my Surface Pro (5) has a single USB-A port which I cannot even get display out to, instead relying on some Surface Connect dock which I don't have. That is a poor experience, not to mention expensive and not compatible with other devices. Thank God USB-C is mainstream!

      wow. that color finally comes to Surface Pro. was always a little jelly when a friend had the sandstone Surface Laptop. I wonder how different this dune is from the sandstone. I'll be getting the dune version. always thought black and platinum were a little boring. I'll still have access to my blue Surface Pro 11 as it'll be a hand-me-down.
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      Looks a very subjective aren't they!? I like its simple design. I love the way Apple designs their products with function over form, minimalization, and simplicity over cluttered complex designs. Many, not all, of their products follow this trend, and the device becomes a tool rather than dominating the space. I do not however like their OS. I have never bought a Apple product, and while I'd consider the Neo for my wife, I am hoping there are better alternatives out there when her failing MacBook Pro 2017 finally stops. Fischer-Price is famously plastic, garish, and poorly made. Basically you're describing the Window Laptops the Neo competes against! This is how product design should be, and what Apple have often followed in recent years: https://tenprinciples.design/
    • AV2, successor to popular YouTube, Netflix, Amazon codec AV1, has a hard battle ahead

      By Skyfrog · Posted

      Isn't that true for every codec? I remember having to buy a PCI MPEG-2 decoder card just so I could play DVDs on my computer back in the late 90s. AV1 support is still fairly new.
