Foobar2000 Customization Topic

[Oompa]

here's mine. I try to keep it as minimal as possible but often I fail miserably. I'm totally in love with the colors of the Tempura VS so I tried to match my Foobar pretty close.

Parts of the scheme are Spex & the tab switching is inspired by smarterchild.

A simple "Now Playing" screen

Single Column Playlist

Album List (pretty sparse as this is my work machine)

Lyrics Panel (I'm still playing with this)

And here is one of the SCP with the Playlist dropdown & tab switch buttons on the bottom (they pop up on mouse over on every tab panel)

All comments welcome.

Awesome, except for the SCP, which I don't like much. Release I say!

Hey, i m compleately new to foobar, can anyone tell me, how can i make it look like itunes or WMP11 in layout only, like library & playlist on left side, playlist contents on right side & album art below the playlist library & playlist pane

[MyMaster]

i know this a little bit off topic but can anyone help me here

see image,

i need to change the color of the last parenthesis, cause the code i'm using seems to be confused by the nested parenthesis. is it possible to fix this by modifying the code? here's what i'm using now:

$replace(%title%,'(',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)'(',')',')'$font(calibri,9,boldshadow glowalpha-50,255-255-255),'[',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)'[',']',']'$font(calibri,9,boldshadow glowalpha-50,255-255-255))

Thank You

NOTE: the image should read "change the color OF the last parenthesis"

I'm just getting back into foobar2000. I stopped using it a few months ago for Winamp, but since the single column playlist plugin came out I have been hooked.

The design isn't that great considering it is my first.

Try this:

$replace(%title%,'(',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)'(',')',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)')'$font(calibri,9,boldshadow glowalpha-50,255-255-255),'[',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)'[',']',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)']'$font(calibri,9,boldshadow glowalpha-50,255-255-255))

I think it should work..

[Faithless]

another newbie question :blush: i just want to find where to change these colours?

[Punio4]

@Spex:

What do I need in order to store how many times a song has been played?

I have foo_custominfo installed, but your trackinfo panel keeps showing "never played". Rating works fine, however.

[MyMaster]

Try this:

$replace(%title%,'(',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)'(',')',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)')'$font(calibri,9,boldshadow glowalpha-50,255-255-255),'[',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)'[',']',$font(calibri,9,bold,100-100-100)']'$font(calibri,9,boldshadow glowalpha-50,255-255-255))

I think it should work..

thanks, that did it :yes:

I'm using this one

looks really good!

[flatrabbit]

Awesome, except for the SCP, which I don't like much. Release I say!

Once I get it a little more cleaned up I'll post up my config stuff, maybe someone and improve on it.

[bbmartini]

something a bit different

the whole view

thanks to mog for a lot of this, most of it is built of an old one of his. and i used some images from capric0rn's miranda skin

[MyMaster]

arrrrrggg, need more help :pinch:

i'm trying to use a noalbum image and a cover overlay image, and it does work when i go to settings and use apply, but if i, for example, right click a music directory and select play in foobar then my noalbum and overlay images don't work (disappear). not sure if it is because i'm, using the same dimensions for all images.

any help would be appreciated.

here's my Group display code and pictures of what i get if i go to settings and apply which is what i want, and what i get if i "restart" foobar

[Viper_Maniac]

Thats a really cool setup. What all did you use for it and is that code for the single_column_playlist? Stupid question I know. ;)

[Ran Sagy]

MyMaster: Try using absolute paths to those files and check if that works. If it does, I guess the 'working directory' changes when you do that, Although it really shouldn't matter.

here's my Group display code and pictures of what i get if i go to settings and apply which is what i want, and what i get if i "restart" foobar

i do it like this,

// album art
$imageabs(20,0,images\vinyl.png,)
$imageabs(0,0,images\cover_bg.png,)
$imageabs2(48,48,0,0,48,48,6,6,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg),)

this is how it turns out:

if you want to add an overlay, you would do it like this

// album art
$imageabs(20,0,images\vinyl.png,)
$imageabs(0,0,images\cover_bg.png,)
$imageabs2(48,48,0,0,48,48,6,6,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg),)
$imageabs(0,0,images\cover_overlay.png,)

the overlay would have to be transparent ofcourse

these are my images, the vinyl image and line of code is totally optional, i just made it to look that little bit more awesome ;)

just whack these in your "images" folder.

I just got into FB this evening & the numbers of pages here to start learning is quite intimidating. Are there any tutorial sites out there that are for noobs like me to do something that looks good like you guys'?

Amazing dynamic rating system OmART!!!!!

What plugins are used for dynamic rating?

What plugins are used for dynamic rating?

None i think, worked fine for me with standard plugins (trackinfo_mod, columns, etc)

Can someone go step by step with me on this particular config?

I can't figure out for the life of me where the config scripts are supposed to be pasted into. I would really appreciate it.
