Hey I just downloaded foobar2000 cause I saw how great everyone can make it look.

Is there a starting tutorial on how to customise it? Or is it better to trail through all of the threads in this topic.

Thanks.

EDIT:

No worries, I looked through most of the posts. found what I need :) I'm sure there will be many more questions from me in this thread. And can I just say, u guys are pro.

Really really nice em3! Made my own mod of yours already lol, nothing serious though!

Only problem i have is, it doesn't show the full track title, i looked through the code but couldn't find nothing, any ideas?

Here's mine so far.

^Maybe there is something wrong with the tagging on your mp3. I've inserted code to cut the text if it's too long (60% of the total trackinfo width) but I don't think that is the issue. I tested a lot to make it work correctly.

Nothing wrong with MP3 tagging, it's all done correctly :( It's really buggin me too! I've tried to change the value of totaltrack info width but no luck :(

Thanks anyways.

Try replacing the beginning of the global code with this. If it doesn't help it's most likely the track trimming that mess up, which I'm rewriting a little as we speak.

// Global
$puts(tracktitle,%artist% - %title%)

No luck i'm affraid :(

^Ok try this. I've rewritten the text trimming code. Replace all // Global code with the code below.

// Global
$puts(tracktitle,
$if($meta_test(artist),%artist%,$substr(%_filename%,1,$sub($strstr(%_filename%, - ),1)))
$if($or($meta_test(artist,title),$strstr(%_filename%, - )), - )
$if($or($meta_test(title),$not($strstr(%_filename%, - ))),
%title%,$substr(%_filename%,$add($strstr(%_filename%, - ),3),$len(%_filename%))))

$puts(freespace,$div($sub(%_width%,38,$calcwidth($get(tracktitle)),$calcwidth(%album%)),2))

$if(%album%,
$ifgreater($get(freespace),14,
$puts(areaWidth1,$add($calcwidth($get(tracktitle)),$get(freespace)))
$puts(areaWidth2,$add($calcwidth(%album%),$get(freespace))),
$puts(areaWidth1,$sub($muldiv(%_width%,60,100),30))
$puts(areaWidth2,$sub($muldiv(%_width%,40,100),10)))
,$puts(areaWidth1,$sub(%_width%,36)))

$puts(charWidth1,$div($calcwidth($get(tracktitle)),$len($get(tracktitle))))
$puts(charWidth2,$div($calcwidth(%album%),$len(%album%)))

Hope you like it.

And now for something completely different :shifty:

Any plans for releasing your Zelda Remix... I'm quite interested ^^

Tried it, it's just the same, it seems to be cutting the last word of each track title no matter how long or short the track title is? Apprciate all your hard work though!

@Primie:

Looks as if it's using ID3v1 tags, they have a maximum length limit..

If your music contains both ID3v1 and v2, try removing the v1 tags.

This may also occur if you have APE tags present (used by replay gain programs, sometimes)

You can change in the foobar preferences whether to use ID3v1 or v2 by default when tagging files (check under the advanced section).

It's already on ID3v2! lol.

How do you show the total number of tracks?

em3: Looks great, if I hadn't just set up a config I really liked then I'd switch...

Here's mine, the code is all on hydrogenaudio.

Does anyone know how to fix the problem with songtitles overlapping the track length?

If you use

$alignabs(X,Y,w,h,H,V)%title%

text should be cropped correctly

Hope that works!

From foobar wiki:

X & Y

Specify the position of the bounding rectangle (can be a negative value).

(W)idth & (H)eight

Specify the bounding rectangle for the text.

H & V

Specify the alignment as above.

edit: sorry for that big codebox, can't get it smaller....

Where can I find that Single ColumnUI config?

    • Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.171 changelog: General Fixed Cardano not being disabled on upgrade to Brave Origin. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103. Origin Removed “Survey Panelist” setting from brave://settings/privacy. Fixed P3A and usage ping under brave://settings/privacy being displayed on first launch on Linux.

    • Hi. As the title suggests, I can't access the forum on my phone. I'm using Edge on Android and when I try to navigate to the forum I get a "we value your privacy" popup and none of the buttons are clickable. It effectively stonewalls me from reading any forum content.
    • Honestly you're not wrong about AdGuard. Neowin frequently has lifetime license discounts for them and that's how I got my cheap family license a few years ago to run it on all my devices.
