Scirwode, what I would recommend is first going back to a basic foobar. Back up your current folder (zip or another location) and then readd components one by one. I've had to do it before. It looks to me that something you're using is conflicting with the albumart.

I knew it would come to that :( . Oh well, better get cracking then. Is there any other Album Art version that reads ansi as well as unicode?

Scirwode

quick question.....it may seem stupid! but is there a way that i can just simply remove a entry frm my playlist? say i add a song i dnt want anymore....how come i cant just simply highlight and press delete on keyboard?

You need to set up your keyboard shortcuts

go to preferences-general-keyboard shortcuts- addnew-define the key and action you need to perform ;)

anyone know how i can change the directory in a panel ui theme to point to a specific directory for album art?

I keep all my Album art in a folder i.e:

D:\My Music\Album Art\Artist - Album.jpg

also if it helps, i'm using moglenstar's mogfuu :>

Open up the .pui in notepad or any other text editor. then do a search for all instances of folder.jpg and replace it with %artist% - %album%.jpg. That should do it for ya.

don't appear to be any instances of folder.jpg in mogfuu.pui :?

however, under preferences > panels UI, then "User Globals"

there is this:

$puts(coverPath,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.*))

$puts(artistPath,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,artist.*))

$puts(userFont,Tahoma)

$puts(userFontSize,9)

i tried adding %artist% - %album% and the directory where %path% is, but still no go :/

Let's see, you should have something like this somewhere.. (I haven't used my own config for so long.)

I think I have mogfuu set to look for *.jpg, *.png, etc.. as my personal music library is filled with things like "cover.jpg", "folder.jpg", "front.jpg", "%album%.jpg".

$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)

That will be inside an $imageabs2(), and what it does is tell the $imageabs2() to look at the path of the current song, then replace the filename of the song, with folder.jpg:

So if you had

C:\Music\Some Artist\Some Album\01 - Some Song.mp3

it would take that, and replace "01 - Some Song.mp3" with "folder.jpg", giving you

C:\Music\Some Artist\Some Album\folder.jpg

Which means that it would look for folder.jpg in the folder of that album.

So, to make it work with your music library, you would need to put something like

D:\My Music\Album Art\%artist% - %album%.jpg

where I had the $replace() string, inside $imageabs2()

so in the case of mogfuu0.5 (I'm not sure if this was a version I released or not.. heh.)

$imageabs2(30,30,,,,,5,5,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg),NOKEEPASPECT)

Would be turned into

$imageabs2(30,30,,,,,5,5,D:\My Music\Album Art\%artist% - %album%.jpg,NOKEEPASPECT)

... I haven't tested that, but it should be correct. Hope it helps :)

Thanks, that worked :)

one last thing, how would I add a no album art command so that it shows something, instead of nothing :]

thanks again, appreciate it!

Simply copy the album artwork line, and paste it above the album artwork line. Then replace the part that looks for your artwork, with the path to where you have an image to display if there is no artwork.

$imageabs2(30,30,,,,,5,5,D:\My Music\Album Art\nocover.jpg,NOKEEPASPECT)
$imageabs2(30,30,,,,,5,5,D:\My Music\Album Art\%artist% - %album%.jpg,NOKEEPASPECT)

Everything appears to be working now moglenstar, thanks again :DD

also i noticed you released 0.2 here: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...amp;p=588579080

but the link no longer works, however 0.1 is still up (thats the one i'm using).

wondering if you have 0.2 laying around if you could re-up it :D

edit: one last thing XD

on the top, it just says "PanelsUI" instead of "[%artist% - ]['['%album%[ CD%discnumber%][ #%tracknumber%]']' ]%title%" (which is the default output located in Preferences > Advanced > Display > Legacy Title Formatting settings)

at the top. below "// Background" put the following

$if(%isplaying%,
$settitle([%artist% - ]['['%album%[ CD%discnumber%][ #%tracknumber%]']' ]%title%),
$settitle(Foobar2000)
)

I don't have mogfuu0.2 anymore, I don't think.. I'll take a look around, but don't hold your breath :)

Currently working on my own loosely iPod based setup, but I'm not sure when it will be ready for release..

I'm still using the old foobar2000 because I cannot find that kindow playlist switch plugin like I have in my old foobar, and I'm totaly forgot coding in foobar :( maybe some1 can point me some new foobar2000 skin or plugin what I'm looking for :)

this is my current foobar

foobaron8.th.jpg

Is anybody know what components is he using with this setup?

http://munkyboi.deviantart.com/art/hito-2-76629015

He says:

foo_ui_panels

foo_uie_powerpanels

foo_uie_vis_channel_spectrum

and a Century Gothic font that I've put in archive.

But all panelsui version that I've used were not working...

mog: seems incredible.

After a failed attempt at creating a nice and useable layout in columns ui I went back to panels to develop a customizable UI based on my the color scheme I use in EditPlus (text editor), and above is what I ended up getting. No images was harmed in the making of this config as I've stuck to $drawrect and fonts only - I suck at UI graphics design and wanted something simple. I've yet to add any kind of layout/settings panel, but colors, fonts and the layout can be changed through vars scattered around the panels. Dunno if I'll release it, depends on whether or not I add a settings panel or not I guess.

I'd love to see a release of this. That is a nice config!

vigge.. that config is beautiful. But i can't get my album art to show in the playlist.. what do i have to change.

Also.. the only thing i can think of to make this config amazing is some sort of small spectrum, and an album art panel maybe in the lower corner or something..

    • So is Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, just to mention a few. What's your point? Everyone is a threat from their enemies' perspective. I'd say that Israel is only a threat to their immediate enemies like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Iranian regime, not to anyone else.
    • The government is not the good guy either. You propose 99% of people require that the government overreach and govern their freedom of information and privacy, while ignoring the government is made up 100% of people, of which 99% are (as you described) brain dead. You can't have both. The reality is Signal is absolutely right and the government is doing what it has always done. Ignoring that we are their boss and grabbing all the power they possibly can to make sure we aren't. Your (societies) ###### parenting is not reason enough as to why I can't have a safe platform for my data/information. Thinking the government is helping is precisely what they are targeting psychologically to take suckers like you for a ride. "Think of the children" was, has, is, and will always be a mechanism of control. In the rare occasion it's actually essential the mass consensus has always been there and it doesn't become a debate.

    • Apple would rather delay Siri AI than open iOS to rival assistants in the EU by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, Apple today announced a revamped Siri AI experience for iOS and iPadOS users. However, this new Siri AI experience will not be available on iPhones and iPads in the European Union when iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 launch later this year. In a detailed press release, Apple blamed the Siri delay on the EU’s Digital Markets Act, highlighting that EU regulators did not accept its proposed solutions for bringing Siri AI to the region. Consequently, there is currently no timeline for Siri AI’s availability on iOS and iPadOS in the EU. Here is what EU users will be missing due to this delay: Siri AI, Apple’s next-generation assistant powered by Apple Intelligence A new dedicated Siri app for revisiting conversations Expanded Visual Intelligence features Integrated AI-assisted writing tools Siri mode in Camera on iOS Other system-level AI features Since the new Siri experience on watchOS 27 is dependent on an iOS 27 device, EU users will also miss out on Siri AI on watchOS 27. The most frustrating part is that even developers based in the EU will not be able to test or use the new Siri AI features for their apps on iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and watchOS 27. In its press release, Apple mentioned that making Siri AI available in the EU would require the company to give other AI assistants (like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini) broad access to private user data and the ability to control installed apps. Essentially, the EU wants competing AI systems to be able to read and send messages, make purchases, access files, and perform actions across apps. To address these concerns, Apple proposed an intermediary system called Trusted System Agent. This system would have allowed other virtual assistants to access the same features as Siri AI in a safer way. However, the European Commission rejected Apple's proposals, and it is currently unclear why. The good news is that Apple stated it will continue working with EU regulators to bring Siri AI to the region. For now, however, iPhone and iPad users in the EU will have to wait. If platform gatekeepers such as Apple and Google reserve deep operating system capabilities only for their own AI assistants, rival services such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and others will be at a major disadvantage. Modern AI assistants are no longer simple chatbots. They require access to core OS-level capabilities such as reading on-screen context, interacting with installed apps, sending messages, creating calendar events, managing files, and completing user-approved actions across the device. If only Siri on iOS or Gemini on Android can access these capabilities, competing AI services will struggle to offer the same level of convenience, even if their underlying models are better. This is exactly what the European Union's DMA is trying to address. Apple and Google should be allowed to protect user privacy and security, but they should not be permitted to use those concerns as a blanket excuse to block rival AI assistants from getting fair access to core platform features. A secure permission-based framework could allow users to choose their preferred AI assistant without giving any company unrestricted access to personal data.
