Foobar2000 Customization Topic


Recommended Posts

Could someone please direct me to a up-to-date guide to customizing Foobar for a complete noob? Most of the sites I have been to assume that you are already familiar with several component, and/or have a strong scripting knowledge. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with either. I've also noticed several veterans talking to newbies who are trying to learn the ropes in a very condescending manner. I would like to find an up-to-date guide that doesn't make any assumptions regarding the aforementioned topics, and thoroughly covers how to customize foobar in an easy to understand, step-by-step manner. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

anyone know of a notifier that works in full screen games (rift to be exact) that will tell me the name of the track playing? tried osd, popup plus, pretty popup. none of them would work when the game was maximized :/

is there any grid view plugin for album art???

currently using columns ui, but i don't know if it's possible to to view covers on a cover wall/grid. looking at album covers rreminds me quicker of albums/songs that i've not listened to for too long.

I took some time to update my foobar2000 layout again. I think it actually looks pretty good now. I previously had Artist / Album filters on the left, replaced that with Album List Panel and Lyric Show. Items that were previously panels I moved to the toolbar to give them the nice blue background. I changed the toolbar icons to follow a basic gray color scheme. I changed the background color of the seekbar so it matches and appears seamless, and I changed the waveform to black and Direct3D 9 which looks much nicer.

I spent a couple of hours last night reorganizing my layout. I wish it were prettier, but WSH Panel and ELPlaylist are beyond me.

What component are you using for the Artist / Album lists in that screenshot? I assume it's not Facets because that's what I'm using and it doesn't look like that. I really like that whatever component you're using looks native. Care to help me out? :)

It's the filters built into Columns UI - http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_ui_columns

Does anyone know of a way to display artwork on only certain playlists (like how you can group only certain playlists)? As in, still have grouping, but not all grouping showing album art. I have been waiting for this feature for a long time.

Not sure if this is the right topic but...

Have an Auzentech Prelude soundcard, 2.1 sound system, running Windows 7.

Any recommendation on what DSP's I should be using, and in what order? Also, for output, I have it set to my soundcard. Is there a better output to use, or keep it on soundcard?

Is there any easy way to set it up to resemble the iTunes layout? I don't want it to look like OS X, but a native Aero application, and I'm just too used to iTunes after ages with OS X... Sorry if this has already been Q&A'd.
