@elbotch

I get my album art mainly from Amazon.com, then save them as folder.jpg

In Control Panel, I use Quad Speaker for speaker setting, it works on my SBLive

[jagwire]

I use the same, it works in other prorgams just not foobar2000.

Hello

I have such question.

How can I manage to get further info on my playlist under "the band name" and "album name" ... what should I add to foobar's strings to get an info on " genre of an album"and "release date" ?

I pointed out with a red circle of which area I'm talking about.

And I attached fcs file in zip if someone could look in it and add some strings in it , I would be very thankfull.

Thanks in advance!!!

^ i think the best way to find how to do it is to dl some fcs that already have all those infos.

Take a look into Soap or Azrael fcs, then just copy the parts you want.

For ex. mine is based on SOAP fcs and the Artist/Album collumn(not for singles)area has these strings.

$if(%_xsingle%,
$if(%artist%,$tab()$if(%_isplaying%,737373|737373,737373|737373)%artist%),
$select($min(%tracknumber%,5),
// --- 01 ---
$if(%_xvarious%,$if3(%album artist%,%performer%,Various Artists),[%artist%]),
// --- 02 ---
$if(%album%,%album%[ CD$num(%disc%,1)])
$if(%discname%,BEBEBE|BEBEBE' ('%discname%')'),
// --- 03 ---
[%date%$if(%genre%, • )][%genre%],
// --- 04 ---
$if($stricmp($left(%_path_raw%,7),'file://'),$upper($ext(%_path%)),
$if($stricmp($left(%_path_raw%,7),'cdda://'),CD Audio,
$if($stricmp($left(%_path_raw%,7),'http://'),HTTP '('$codec()')')))
' ['
$if($or(
$stricmp($codec(),FLAC),
$stricmp($codec(),Monkey''s Audio),
$stricmp($codec(),OptimFROG),
$stricmp($codec(),WavPack),
$stricmp($codec(),Windows Media Audio V9 '('Lossless Mode')'),
$stricmp($codec(),Shorten)),
$muldiv(%__bitrate%,100,1411%)'%',
$if($stricmp($codec(),True Audio),'('$right(%__compression%,2)'%',
$if($stricmp($codec(),MP3),$if(%__extrainfo%,'~'))
$if2(%__bitrate_dynamic%,%__bitrate%) kbps))
$if($stricmp($codec(),Monkey''s Audio), %__compression%)
']'
))

About the red circle you have on the right side. If i understand what you want to do there, you have to enable dynamic info in playlist.

Its under Options > Display.

Hoe this helps.

I must figure it out and just like You told me - I'll take several strings from Azrael

Krpano - Thanks a lot!!!

[haaga]

Is there something in the options I must enable when using 'times played' on track info panel? It always shows 0 times or never even though I've played the song multiple times.

[xKratosx]

Hey there, what site can I directly get the fcs files from with previews?

Thanks xx

Do you have the foo_playcount plugin?

[scowl]

how do I change the color of the selected song in the playlist?

i know where the item frame is (display/columns ui/playlist view/playlist view display settings) but i cant seem to find where to find the selected item background color. and its not in the playlist switcher panel settings, that's different.

If im not wrong thats controled by the fcs strings.

[xKratosx]

Hmm, thanks Krpano - it's a good site and I got one or two themes from there last night. Looking at this thread and one over at the hydrogen forums there are literally hundreds upon hundreds of themes and the ones I really like aren't on that site :(

[Krpano]

Maybe you could PM the person who has the fcs you like, im almost sure they would share it with you.

You can always mod one existing fcs to fit your desire.

Actually this is very funny to do while listening some good music.

:)

Thanks alot :)

[aggrophobik]

Is there a .fcs file around that might go well w/ System5 VS by Hornett?

[ThalSwe]

Think there is quite a few that would fit well but all can just as long as you tweak the colors of it. Straight out of the box I think Navigator-Suite (http://foobar.nub4life.net/columns/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=89) could be worth a try.

I also got a lite version of "Plisk" that might be good. PM me if you want it.

[drgrudge]

I dont see the "ColumnsUI" in the Display" section.

Here is the screenshot:

I got Column UI in my Components folder also.

Can anyone plz tell what to do?

Sorry if this was discussed before, It's difficult to go thro the 185 pages.

What version of foobar and collumns_ui are you using ?

You can always check the this section to see if something has failed to load or if its there.

[drgrudge]

Krpano:

I am using Foobar 2000, V.0.8.3 Unicode version ; june 28, 2004

Yes, I have that foo_ui_columns.dll in my component library.
