This thread has been a great help.  I'm getting everything the way i like.

I have two more questions:

I have the track info panel DLL in the correct place, but i can't get it to show up.

I'm using columnsUI 0.1.2 beta 3 (is there a more recent one?)

the newest version is beta 4, released 26/11.. download here..

musicmusic's site will always have the newest releases first.. after the thread on hydrogenaudio..

anyone use foo_osd? mind sharing your configs for it?

here's mine:

How do I change the icon circled in red?

And is there a plugin which displays scrolling lyrics? Auto-search on the web for lyrics would also be nice :D.

To change the icon in red you will need to use res hacker to hack the foobar executable file.

As for the lyrics I havn't used it but this should work.

The guy on Hydrogenaudio says:

Enable/check: Preferences->Display->Columns UI->Other->List all toolbars

Then right click the toolbar area and open a panel that has a "Minimum height" setting (e.g. foo_uie_tabs, foo_uie_albumlist). Then use this setting to adjust the size of the area above playlist.

I don't use this kind of layout myself, so I haven't verified this...

Thanks for your info, but i have still this problem because i have already a panel on left side:

fooletzt8uv.th.jpg

That means, i don't know how to make a "second one" above playlist. :no:

It's possible to make more on left side ..... i know, but not on right side!

OK, i will try again.

Maybe i need "foobar 0.8.3"?

EDIT:

I already found it!

But: "Then use this setting to adjust the size of the area above playlist."

How can i do this?

Edited by Strictly4me

Go into preferences, and go to 'Album list panel' under the 'Components' section. Near the bottom is a box that says 'Minimum height:'. Increasing the number in this box abover 0 will define the height of the album-list panel in the tool bar in (as far as i can tell -- i didn't measure it or anything) pixels. e.g., putting in 250 will make the album list 250 pixels tall.

Cool, i found it.

But it's only working for 'Album list panel', "Database Explorer Panel", etc.

Not for the Tabs and Albumcover! - They are still small.

Maybe you have any idea for both of them?

sure, here it is.. using OSD 1.29.2..

0080ff|000000[%artist% - ]$if(%title%,[']']$num(%tracknumber%,2). %title%,%_filename%)
[$char(10)ebc198|000000'['%album%']']  00ffff|000000[%_time_elapsed%]$if(%_ispaused%,' 0f0fff|000000[PAUSED]') 00ffff|000000~$pad_right($num($muldiv(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,100,%_time_total_seconds%),2),3)'%'

[$char(10)61dca8|000000Next: cfa923|000000%_next%]

How do you get the Ratings column?

585077259[/snapback]

You 'get' the ratings column the same way you get any other column -- you add a column called 'ratings' to the Columns UI settings. ... More specifically, you need to do two things.

Firstly, get the Quick Tag plug-in, which lets you assign tag-update tasks to the context menu. (For example, you can assign a task to set the RATING tag of a file to 2.)

Secondly, create your ratings column, however you want to do it. You don't need Columns UI if you don't want, it works either way. But make a spot where it will display the ratings tag somehow. Probably you want to do this graphically (like a rating of 5 will show five dots), but you can do it lots of different ways. If you want to return the number, you can just set it to display %rating%. If you want to do dots you can do something like: $ifgreater(%rating%,0,$repeat(●,%rating%)$repeat( ,$sub(5,%rating%)),)

Strictly4me, it only works with panels that have a 'minimum height' property. I don't use the tabs or the album-cover plug-ins, so i don't know anything about them, but if they don't have a minimum-height property they won't display right. Try upgrading to newer versions?

    • Incredible deal gets you free NVMe 512GB SSD with AMD AM5 B850 motherboard for only $150 by Sayan Sen Earlier this week we covered the story of an interesting PC case wherein you can build two full-size computers inside it as in it can house and run an AMD and an Intel system simultaneously. Speaking of building PCs, these are hard times to make one for sure as prices are often very high except during flash sales or discounts. If you are in the market for a 1080p gaming PC then Nvidia's 8GB RTX 5060 Ti is currently on sale for just $330 and you get the latest James Bond game too, for free. Speaking of which, right now there is another incredible sale going on as we can get a free 512 GB NVMe SSD from TeamGroup in the form of the G50 alongside the purchase of an AMD B850 socket AM5 motherboard for only $150 (purchase link under the specs table down below). Getting an AM5 motherboard now in 2026 will be a wise investment for sure, especially since AMD confirmed its commitment to support the socket till at least 2029. The MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI is a micro-ATX motherboard that is compatible with AMD Ryzen 9000 series processors. Since it is AM5, the motherboard works with DDR5 memory and includes MSI’s Memory Boost technology, along with EXPO and XMP support. Connectivity features include built-in Wi-Fi 7 paired with a 5G LAN solution. The board offers a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot with MSI’s EZ M.2 Shield Frozr II thermal solution, that is said to help maintain SSD performance by providing ample cooling against overheating. The technical specifications of the MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI motherboard are given in the table below: The free TeamGroup T-FORCE G50 NVMe SSD is a PCIe Gen4 and as such it promises to deliver sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s, helping accelerate game loading, file transfers, and everyday computing tasks. The SSD features an InnoGrit controller and SLC caching technology to support consistent performance. An ultra-thin, patented graphene heatsink is included to aid in heat dissipation. The NAND flash is based on TLC which means it has plenty of endurance up its sleeve. The random performance may not be as amazing as other drives with DRAM though. Still it should be very good since it can access system memory via HMB to use it as its DRAM cache. The technical specifications of the TeamGroup 512GB G50 NVMe SSD are given in the table below: Get it at the link below: MSI PRO B850M-P WIFI AM5 AMD motherboard + Team Group T-FORCE G50 512GB SSD (free gift): $149.99 (Sold and Shipped by Newegg US) This Newegg deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • RapidRAW 1.5.7 by Razvan Serea RapidRAW is a beautiful, non-destructive, GPU‑accelerated RAW image editor designed for speed and simplicity. It uses a lightweight (~30 MB), efficient code base built with Rust, React and Tauri. Ideal for Lightroom workflows, it offers rich editing tools—exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites/blacks, tone curves, HSL mixer, dehaze, vignetting, film grain, sharpening, clarity and noise reduction—processed in real-time on the GPU. Features include intuitive masking (brush, linear, radial, AI-powered subject and foreground detection), generative edit layers (via ComfyUI), 32‑bit precision, and full RAW format support through rawler. RapidRAW also provides library management (folder navigation, ratings, metadata, EXIF viewer), batch operations, export presets (JPEG/PNG/TIFF), sidecar editing (.rrdata), undo/redo history, customizable UI themes, smooth animations, resizable panels, and preset copy/paste. A modern high-performance Lightroom alternative with polished UX and creative tools, RapidRAW brings powerful photo editing to photographers seeking speed, responsive GPU feedback, and streamlined workflows. RapidRAW v1.5.7 release notes: This update serves as a direct follow-up to the core architectural migration introduced in v1.5.6. While the transition to a more modular state management system marked a significant step forward for RapidRAW's stability and long-term maintainability, it also introduced several edge cases and regressions within the library and editing workflows. This release focuses on addressing those issues, with a particular emphasis on a complete overhaul of library performance to ensure smooth and responsive browsing following the refactoring. It also resolves inconsistencies in the copy-and-paste workflow and expands RapidRAW's accessibility by adding support for eight additional languages.

    • Thank god they got rid of the disgusting looking sidebars, and the corner radius looks much better, too. Two things I hated on day one, and never got used to.
