Care to explain how to get it to work then?

[karma_police]

well it's the easy way, if you want to store your covers in a different folder you have to write some code and put it on Preferences > Album List Panel but don't ask me what to wrote because I dont know anything about foobar's code.

In the "sources for album art" part of the preferences add a new one with

match:C:\AlbumArt\%album%*

and move precedence to the top.

"C:\AlbumArt" being whatever folder your art is in

%album%* is the file name. So if you're listening to Barney - Purple Album - Lame song it'll look in c:\AlbumArt\ for Purple Album.jpg (or any other file extension hence the *)

you can sub %album% with just about anything btw. I have %artist% for example.

Just make sure your album art pictures are named right.

Ah ok, I assumed the album art was downloaded off the internet and you didn't need them on your computer. :blush:

Thanks though, appreciated. :)

Thanks for the configs, spex! :D

One last request, can you tell me what font are you using for your track info panel?thanks!

Sure, Frutiger Linotype, can't give it out if you haven't got it though, it's a pay font :p

Yea, that's what i thought, but seemed a bit of a weird request.. Might aswell just post my foobar2000.cfg file :unsure:

foobar2000.cfg.zip

[Sauceman]

How do I get my album art and track info on top of the playlist?

Thanks

[spex04]

Got another code question for the guys who've already figured this out. How could you compare an artists name with the previous artists name, and have it display none if identical? I ask cos, all the other strings I've seen display by tracknumber (if 1 display artist, is 2 display nill etc), and since most of my library are singles from all sorts of different albums, that doesnt really work unless i make up a bunch of b.s tracknumbers for the songs i have. I've played with it a bit, but can never really get what I want. Is it even possible?

Yea, I'd like that too, I guess it might be do-able by playing around with variables. I'll give it a go, see if I can figure it out. (Y)

Edit: I don't think you can do it, because the variables are only saved for that specific time, so you can't carry them over. If there was a way to find out any piece of information about a certain playlist item, then i think i could do it.

well you could store it in some ID3 Tag or something like that, but of course thats codec dependent so its not very realiable.

@brumal

It's looking nice, but it's better to have a more dark background in playlist-tree, for ganticons i made. ;)

Maybe it's better to take the green colour like in trackinfo?

Just an idea. :)

replaygain info displaying is changed in latest Navigator-Suite version.

Anyway, I modified. Here's the fcs (zip compressed).

next I'll try to "toolbar ontop"...

Hope you people like :D

[ciel]

thanx for helping! its just what i wanted XD now just the toolbar ><;

ah one problem, how do i switch the format info with the album name info? i want the album name to be the first and the format info to be on the bottom of it

// LINE-1: ALBUM / FOLDER / DATE
// linepos-check
$select($num(%_tracknr%,1),,
// album / folder
%_standard_color_high%$if2(%_album%,%_folder%)
// date
$char(9)%_standard_color_low%[  %date%]
// end linepos-check
)


// FILEFORMAT
// linepos-check
$select($sub($num(%_tracknr%,1),$get(lineadjust)),
// replaygain
%_standard_color%'Format: '%_standard_color_low%%_filetype2%' / '%_quality2%
// end linepos-check
)

thats the code from the album mode column

Maybe...

// LINE-1: ALBUM / FOLDER / DATE
// linepos-check
$select($num(%_tracknr%,1),
// album / folder
%_standard_color_high%$if2(%_album%,%_folder%)
// date
$char(9)%_standard_color_low%[ ?%date%]
// end linepos-check
)


// FILEFORMAT
// linepos-check
$select($num(%_tracknr%,1),,
// fileformat
%_standard_color_low%'Format: '%_standard_color%%_filetype2%' / '%_quality2%
// end linepos-check
)

BTW your text font and colour is different from mine.

What one are you using?

[ciel]

ah yep that works wonders ><; im using swiss721 font

Thanx!

Can i have a copy of your buttons, Jexxster ?

Also, what is that on the right side ? doesnt seem to be a part of foobar.
