just a quick one, is it just me or can't single column playlist play songs by pressing enter?

(as in, selecting a song in the playlist with arrow keys, then press enter)

When I'm using the single column playlist I cannot use the keyboard to do anything, I have keys set up to do lots of things (like rate the song etc) and the only way I can do things like that is to use the context menu.

If I need to do a lot of tag editing I just switch back to the columnsui layout.

It seems all the plugins I put in the components folder are out-dated.

How do I make it so when I close and open Foobar, the playlist that was there doesn't start up again?

The songs I played yesterday are still in there when I opened it this morning. I want a fesh playlist.

Can you share you config files please? Thats sweet! The way you have it setup.. Thanks!

my setup has changed a little bit since i posted that screenshot. here's how my setup looks now....

what plugin do i need to show the album art in the single column?

single column playlist - http://users.bowie-cass.com/singa/foo_uie_...mn_playlist.zip

add it as a panel in the columns ui layout section. then right click anywhere in the playlist to access the settings dialog. :)

yeah i have that.. i have it all set up except it's not showing the art, just blank space... is there anythying i have to enable or change to make it show the album art?

its all done with the $imageabs2() function of the latest single columns playlist, i've been toying around with it, and will write a guide of some sort when i have some spare time..

foobar_new_omgwtfalbumart.png

it's fun stuff :D

ok i got the album art working but now i'm having another problem..lol

it's not showing the artist under the songs lke your is.. is it maybe a text setting? what font do you have set for your single columns ui?

that's down to my code. it's only showing the artist info because those are various artist albums tagged with %album artist%. there is no need for single artist albums as the artist is already shown in the group header.....

my font is tahoma, 8 - add this code to the start of the item display section

$font(Tahoma,8,,)

to open an fcb file, you need to apply it to the toolbar

right click buttons toolbar > customise.. > click "tools" button > load from file.

the images are extracted into foobar2000/images folder.

to make your own set, each button must be the same size.

Hi,

Acedriver, thks m8 :) , can u tell me how do i may remove the gap between the buttons ?

In old Foobar that was easy, on this one, i can see how, even with buttons havin the same size.

Cya

I want to actually try to use this software finally, but making it look nice is way beyond something i feel i can take the time to do, are there pre made UI's i can DL, i see some of yalls here and they are awesome and ive tried to go thru some tutorials on how to customize this and i wanted to hurt my pc lol. Ive followed some of the tutorials but these addons they require always seem tobe out of date when i start up foobar, always get an error message

em3: can i have a fcs of that? and how did you get that panel on top? and what do i need for that rating thing?

You can find all of that in his foobar layout thread on his forum.

Behold the Jaffa ;)

    • Claude on Windows is eating up massive amounts of RAM, with no way to stop it by Usama Jawad Anthropic has been in the headlines a lot lately, primarily due to its latest revenue and valuation figures, along with its release of its state-of-the-art (SOTA) Fable model. While its flagship product, Claude, may be very popular among millions of users, a lot of them are now reporting memory issues when using the tool. Over on Claude Code's GitHub repository, an issue raised in February has been gaining traction once again. Basically, Claude Desktop on Windows spins up a 1.8GB Hyper-V virtual machine if you use Claude Cowork or agent mode even once. This happens on each launch of Claude Code even if you plan to use the tool in chat mode only. Several users have upvoted this bug and stated that it's happening on their machine as well. However, it seemingly affects only Claude desktop users on Windows, not customers of the CLI or any other platform. Once the bug is triggered, it also shows a Vmmem process in Task Manager, indicating CPU usage of 0% and RAM utilization of a whopping ~1.8GB. Claude users complain that this process should only spin up when you explicitly launch agent mode or Cowork in Claude, with session files efficiently cleaned up after use. Additionally, they are calling for Claude to gracefully handle the absence of virtual machine-based infrastructure, without compromising on chat performance. It's unclear when this issue originated or what the root cause behind it is, but people are once again actively engaging in the GitHub thread as well as Hacker News. You can also find other technical details and log events over on GitHub. It's unclear if Anthropic will look into this issue, especially since it's already been reported for a few months. However, the bug is also causing major annoyance for users, with many claiming that it has led them to uninstall Claude Code on desktop, as a concrete workaround is not yet known.
