Im using Rexy mod... and i have some questions...

Ive edited id3 tags so it will display album... but for some reason, on some albums it dosent group albums... any help?

From the screenshot you posted later on, I can assume that your files aren't named in accordance with their track number. You see, when you drag some files into foobar, it'll sort them by file name alpha so if the track number value isn't in the beginning of the file name it will be misarranged. After all, foobar renders rows seperately for every single song so what Azarel is doing is just using this nasty little hack of just using an if to check if the song is the first or second or whatever song in the album (simply using the tracknumber tag) and simply displays some tag from that specific song in that specific row so it is in no way actively grouping, sorting, or uniforming albums. What I do (after I have all the tags to be accurate and uniform, of course) is use the embedded Masstagger's file rename function and use "$num(%tracknumber%,2) - %title%" as my renaming pattern, but if you have all your files in the same folder and not arranged into folders and sub folders by artist and album, you might wanna throw in %artist% and %album% somewhere before the track number. Either that or you can use sort playlist (or sort selection). Personally, I use "%artist%%date%%album%$num(%tracknumber%,2)" as my sorting scheme. Also, from your screenshot, I can see that you are using the wrong font as the arrows and the RG warnings aren't showing up correctly. Talking of ReplyGain, I suggest you RG your files as it seems you didn't already. I, too, thought little of RG at the beginning, but as I started trying it out I saw the great power and potential it possesses.

Erm... could you PM me your msn/aim or anything so we can talk deeply about it? :p, seems you know a lot and you should share with me.... lol! :p, plz?

Thanks

You need to be using a different GUI plugin, ui_columns. try looking at http://foobar.nub4life.net/

After you switch, you can use any of the config themes from that site or here by going into the plugin options and using the import option. Hope this helps ..

hey fellows.

first thing, I have to apologize because of my poor english.

maybe the answer is allready here, so I did not understand it.

I installed foobar 0.8.2 and columns 0.1.

But when i'm trying to import any .fcs file, he just do nothing, well it seems to, without azrael, who gives me an error message : "unknown element found in file, skipping"

So please help me to customize this great audio player.

Another question : without quicktag, it exist another plugin to make a rating of our songs?

Make a rating?, you mean, group em with azrael? if so, select the files, right click, masstagger>add>add autotrack number, then select all, propietries, and fix the tags to fit it, if thats not what you needed... umm... what was it? =), and dont worry about youre english, whats your main leng?

    • FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
