well..

it's more like

$tab()$upper(%title%/$rgb(some,colour,here)%artist%)$tab()

background colour too match bottom-most colour of titlebar (although in my screenshot it is slightly off :p )

Arial for the font, size 14 i think (i've changed my layout since then), white

trackinfo panel is edgeless, so that it seemlessly blends with titlebar

:)

New layout in progress.

Like it quite a bit more then your previous ones and like the implemention of topdownjimmys(?) last played code. Think I might end up using something simular to your look...if not actually yours when/if you post it :shiftyninja:

I cant get it to work... using 0.9.1, replaced the 33kb file from that web, for a 1xxkb in my folder and i just cant get it to work... cant insert it as a panel (yes, show everything is checked for the panel things) and nor i can configure it on preferences :(

Still in progress. Didn't like the playlist dropdown, browser combination, so went back to my usual playlist switcher.

Oh, foobar, how I love the endless diverstion from work you provide with your infinite configuration possibilities.

:rolleyes:

hey brumal, how do you get the playlist with songs that have never been played?

how do i make an auto playlist, what is the difference between that and a normal playlist?

Auto playlists are like smart playlists in itunes. They automatically update with changes to your media library.

You may need to download the autoplaylist plugin here http://foobar2000.org/components/index.html.

Once that's installed, you should have an option under the Library menu for autoplaylists.

Still in progress. Didn't like the playlist dropdown, browser combination, so went back to my usual playlist switcher.

How do you get the playlist looking like that i.e. album, artist etc all grouped into one neat box next to all the tracks for that album?

EDIT: Nevermind, been so long since I've played with my playlist setup, I didn't realise all I had to do was apply an album-view config.

However how do you get the browser list at the side looking so nice?

And is there any way of making single tracks look nice with the album-view (i.e. not just having a gaping blank where the album, artist etc info should be?)

Thanks!

Hi all, I'm someone who's switched players quite a few times. Foobar now matches my needs PERFECTLY. Small memory footprint, simple yet customisable, and actually the best way for me (personally) to view my files - by directory.

Right now as you may have guessed I am running a basic install, with just Columns UI (absolutely essential, of course :)) and pretty much the stuff that comes in the installer. I'd say I'm a pretty advanced PC user, just not with foobar (just to let you know)...yet. Whilst writing this I've downloaded foo browser too.

What I'm aiming for with my foobar setup is a light blue-type feel, maybe with dark blue sections. I'll try and figure as much as I can out from existing documentation, but if not hopefully you lot can give me a bit of help with it.

I guess this is a kind of heads up that I will be about.

One last thing....any tips you can give me with customisation or anything else?

Mike.

I'm sorry to bother, but can anyone tell me where to find documentation on Columns UI's layout presets thing (the splitters and panels part which I can't understand at all)?

I want to have it iTunes style (Artists panel, them Album next to it -- both on top of the playlist, which exibits songs according to the current selection in the panels). I've found the foo_browser component, which is supposed to allow you to do the things I mentioned. So far all I could accomplish is a single top-side panel (the type - artists, genre, album, etc. can be selected with shift + right mouse button) with the playlist in the bottom.

It just doesn't strike as something very intuitive... any tips?

    • Yeah, when I saw that, I wanted to find the nearest nose. You can't find a good nose these days when you need one.
    • Anthropic launches Claude Fable 5, a state-of-the-art AI model that beats OpenAI's GPT-5.5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in April, Anthropic announced Claude Mythos Preview, a frontier model with state-of-the-art coding capabilities. Due to the cybersecurity implications that would occur due to the availability of such a powerful model, Anthropic made it available to only a select set of companies around the world. The company's plan was to prepare appropriate guardrails before releasing such a powerful model to everyone. Now, after nearly two months, Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, its most capable AI model yet for general users. The company also announced Claude Mythos 5, the same underlying model as Fable 5, but with safeguards lifted, making it more suitable for selected cybersecurity and biology use cases. Claude Fable 5 sits a tier above its Opus models and it beats most other generally available models across areas including software engineering, knowledge work, vision, scientific research, and long-running autonomous tasks. To prevent model misuse, when Claude Fable 5 detects certain requests related to cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, or model distillation, the request will be routed to the Claude Opus 4.8 model. Anthropic claims that these safeguards trigger in less than 5% of sessions on average. However, for large organizations working on critical software, Claude Mythos 5 can be availed through Project Glasswing. Later, Anthropic has plans to expand access through a broader trusted access program. As you can notice in the benchmarks above, Fable 5 and Mythos 5 are state-of-the-art on most key AI benchmarks and they are well ahead of OpenAI's frontier model, GPT-5.5. For example, Fable 5 is the new state-of-the-art model for vision tasks. Also, Mythos 5 has the strongest cybersecurity capabilities of any model in the world. Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 are priced at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens, which is less than half the price of Claude Mythos Preview. Another big change is that Anthropic is making a change to the way they handle business customer data for both Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models. The company will now require 30-day retention for all traffic on both first- and third-party surfaces. Anthropic promises that it won't use the data to train Claude models, instead it will use it against complex and novel attacks. Claude Fable 5 is available today on the Claude API and consumption-based Enterprise plans. It is also included at no extra cost for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise customers from today through June 22. After that, users on those plans will need usage credits to continue using Fable 5, unless Anthropic extends the included access window based on capacity. Developers can access Fable 5 through the Claude API using the claude-fable-5 model name.
