First question... Anyone know how I can get my Year to show up on the same line as my Album Name. And also get rid of that extra line under the Album Name and Date?

See pic http://www.bgracetfaith.net/misc/foobar2000.jpg

Next question... I used acedriver's sort string to get my albums sorted by date. The only problem is, now, whenever I go to an album that has multiple discs, it lists them with the discs combined. Example:

1. Track One Disc 1

1. Track One Disc 2

2. Track Two Disc 1

2. Track Two Disc 2

and so on.

What string can I add to the sort string to get it to list them in order of disc?

I want to upgrade to Foobar .9 beta 10 for how much cleaner it seems... One problem: how would I be able to have a "Toaster"-type thing running?!? I would even be happy with that panel thing showing the album art (but I have found nothing)!

Does anyone know of something similar to Toaster that is available for .9? If not, I'll just stick to .8 like I am doing right now... Thanks in advance for any information on this "problem" (for the lack of a better word)! :)

There are only a handful of plugins available for the beta just now, columnsui and a few other basic ones.

If you can't live without toaster and album art them you will have to stick with .83

If you want it to display like mine, you will need all of your music to be tagged with tracknumber/album/artist/title tags. If you have this, then look at the first few pages of this thread and it will tell you the basics. After this, you should have columnsUI set up, with various plugins (foo_uie_trackinfo, foo_uie_albumart). Then you need to load my config file (attached here, need to rename to .fcs), and copy the track info code into the preferences of the track info panel. Then you need to select these panels as toolbars, by clicking on one of the toolbars, selecting Panels, then the album art panel, or the track info panel.. etc.

If you need any help, post back here, I'm sure someone, even my self, will be willing to help. (Y)

Okay, the question might have been dealt with a few times already, but this thread is just too damn long to read it entirely...

Certain visual styles (quite a large number in fact) cut off the bottom of the gripper (or whatever you call the thing you can drag around to seek) in the seekbar. Is there an easy fix to this? It's bugging me right now because I have this VS which is great in every other aspect, if it weren't for this minor annoyance it'd be perfect!

Alright guys, I gotta ask this...I'm not a foobar enthusiast but I'm loving it as the days go by. Could anyone scuff up a tutorial on how to 'pimp' my foobar so it has album art and looks generally compact? using toaster would be nice too!

Thanks in advance,

Kesh.

I know my question is a little off topic because the issue has to do with my VS, but since it influences foobar as well, I will ask it in this thread:

How can I change the color of the toolbar(?), which now has the RGB colors 233,234,234 ?

My knowledge of Visual Styles tends towards 0 so please excuse my (probably stupid) question

I've a feeling that when 0.9 finally gets released it will pick up a bit.

    • This Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 32GB RAM with RGB is a great deal for limited time

      By BlueScreenJunky · Posted

      No, "a great deal" for 32GB of DDR5 is $50, not $350. I mean I see what you mean, that it's a decent price compared to what's currently available, but you really should put a disclaimer in this articles explaining that it's still multiple times more expensive than it used to be.

    • Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 stable launch looms as Linus Torvalds releases the final release candidate by Paul Hill Linus Torvalds has just released what’s expected to be the final release candidate of Linux 7.1, rc7. The Linux founder said that this RC is not small, but smaller than recent releases, which is a good sign because he expects the stable version to drop next week if things continue on this trajectory. Linux kernels see a merge window for the first two weeks of their life, where developers add new features, then there are about seven or eight weeks of release candidates before the stable version. Typically, there are seven release candidates, but if more time is needed, then an eighth release candidate is released too. This week’s RC’s biggest area of fixes was for GPUs, with networking just behind. Torvalds said that the rest of the release was “pretty random and spread out” with some architecture fixes, driver fixes, filesystem improvements, and build fixes for more unusual configs. In terms of specific pieces of hardware receiving improvements in this update, we had more AMD Zen6 models supported and fixes for AMD SDMA 7.1 and GFX11. Hardware that got improvements includes Lenovo laptops, HONOR laptops, and MSI laptops. Here are the changelogs for those: ASoC: amd: acp: Add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Pro 7 15ASH11 Input: atkbd - add DMI quirk for Lenovo Yoga Air 14 (83QK) Input: atkbd - skip deactivate for HONOR BCC-N's internal keyboard ASoC: amd: yc: Add MSI Raider A18 HX A9WJG to quirk table ASoC: amd: yc: Enable internal mic on MSI Bravo 17 C7VF When the stable Linux 7.1 is released, it will be up to distribution maintainers, such as Canonical and Red Hat, to release the update to their users via the update manager. Some versions of Linux will get it before others, and some will never get it at all. Fedora and Arch-based distros will be among the first to get it, though. If you don’t get it, the security fixes will be backported to your system’s kernel, so you won’t be at risk, but you won’t get newer hardware support, which is fine if your computer works now.
