Wow. Care releasing?

Sure, there you go!

Place the folder in foobar2000\PanelsUI and apply the fcs file (may alter your columns ui settings as well) to make the playlist switcher look good. If something appears non-glass in the config (album_list_panel and quicksearch for example) change their BG colour to black :)

New setup:

Download: http://home.no/lassekongo83/fb2k/lassekongo.rar

Should work pretty good in any visual style. Using syscolors and alpha-transparent images.

To display the artist picture: Add a artist.jpg image in the album's folder.

To display the cover picture: Add a folder.jpg image in the album's folder.

ID3 tag the amount of tracks the albums have to sort everything right. Sort after album in PanelsUI.

ID3 tag the comment in your files to display artist info.

Can anyone here get this config working properly with PanelsUI 0.13.8? It doesn't show the track name in the window title anymore.

Try adding

$if(%isplaying%,$settitle(%artist% - %track%),$settitle(foobar2000))

to the top of the config code

I'm looking how to remove the sizing bars (ie. locking the different sections of foobar), but I can't seem to figure out how. Wanting to remove the sizing seperators / dividers.

I've tried locking the sections under the Columns UI > Layout trees to no avail.

You can't get rid of them using ColumnsUI as your layout only in PanelsUI

Okay good news, got permission to release my modification of lassekongo83's "lttm" config.

So, without a due.. presenting lttma "Listen to The Music Again"

You will need the following components:

- foo_ui_panels 14.12 beta (it might work with 13.8, but i haven't tested..)

- foo_uie_albumart

- foo_uie_albumlist

- foo_uie_powerpanels

Changes to original "lttm" config:

- made layout fluid, so window can now be resized

- remade all graphics, designed to suit VistyV2 visual style (but go well with most styles)

- added toggleable albumart/trackinfo side panel

- changed views to scpl and albumlist, removed old trackinfo and playlist selector

- added buttons to search current artist on last.fm/wikipedia.org/oink.cd

- added functioning custom seekbar ability, using foo_uie_powerpanels

@ moglenstar

I have a problem with your config.

When I choose the layout file in the Panels UI Preferences, the layout doesn't change.

And if I click on "Save all" I get the default Panels UI layout.

are you using the latest version of panels ui? 14.12 beta

http://panels.fooblog2000.com/foo_ui_panels_beta.zip

edit:

I've tested with a fresh foobar2000 install, and it will definately only work with 14.12 beta. if you try it with 13.8, it doesn't let you select my pui :)

edit2:

also, it appears that you need foo_ui_columns for foo_uie_albumart to work.

Whenever I try to play a song I get the error of "Unhandled exception : Service not found." I've never used Foobar before so I don't know what that means. The layout works perfectly (Atleast looks like your screenshot.) I get the error also when I try to send my entire library to the playlist, but if I click "Add to Library" it works.

Okay, cross all of that. Whenever I press the button that shows more details for the album (album cover and such.) I get the error.

yeah, i just figured out, it's because you need foo_ui_columns too, for foo_uie_albumart to work - http://yuo.be/columns.php

Great, works now, but one more thing. How do I get the information to show at the top too as well as under the album art.

      Promoting is fine - advertising, informing, whatever.  But interrupting your PAID OS experience is not.

    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple This week at Apple’s 2026 developers conference, the iPhone maker unveiled the upgraded Siri after more than a year of delays. The new Siri is now called Siri AI, and it's powered by Google Gemini models. While Siri AI is preparing to roll out to Apple users worldwide, the company’s EU customers might need to wait much longer before getting their hands on the new assistant. Shortly after announcing iOS 27, Apple said in a blog post that Siri AI is not coming to the EU anytime soon due to hurdles posed by the Digital Markets Act (DMA) and other regulatory requirements. To comply with the DMA in the EU, Apple apparently needs to open Siri AI to rival assistants on iOS 27 and iPadOS 27. Apple has refused to do so, which has resulted in Siri AI being delayed for its EU users. The company argues that such a move would put users’ privacy at risk. In a statement to Neowin, a European Commission spokesperson provided more details about why Siri AI will not be rolled out to Apple customers in the region. The statement first noted that the DMA does not prohibit Apple from launching its services in the EU and that the company is simply required to comply with the law. The European Commission spokesperson added that, since Apple is considered a gatekeeper under the DMA, it is “obliged to give third parties access to equivalent features as they give to its own products. Because the DMA is precisely about giving users the choice to use the product they find best suits their needs.” Moreover, the spokesperson said the Commission has been in contact with Apple, though the company “did not develop proposals for DMA compliant interoperability solutions.” The statement also clarified that companies designated as gatekeepers cannot leverage their status and products, such as operating systems, to favor their own AI services. The first public beta of iOS 27 will roll out next month, while the stable version is expected to launch this fall following the release of the iPhone 18 series. It remains unclear when Apple will be able to resolve its DMA-related compliance issues with the European Commission and bring Siri AI to its European customers.
