The playlist is sorted by Artist, so when tracks have different artists they get split up. If you want them grouped, you can fill the "Album Artist"-Tag. For Soundtracks you could use "Various Artists".

Hello,

i'm a total noob of customizing foobar, can anybody help me out how to make it look like this? i'm sure it's not that complicated, looks like a pretty simple layout, guess it's just a few settings in columns ui, unfortunately i don't have any skills.

thanks very much in advance.

Hi, I saw it before on other themes, so does anyone know how to make a transparent background ( ~30%) in fb2k, but only the background, not the other stuff upon it.. ?

you cannot with the actual version of foobar, but if you downgrade to v0.9.5.2, you will be able to do this with PanelsUI, but you need titleformatting skills to create a PUI config... and some practice of PUI functions too.

Regards.

Here is my last config Xchange v3 for foobar2000 0.9.6 (should work with al 0.9.x earlier versions too, not tested)

What component are you using for the album art / track info area?

Looks great btw!

I'm actually using foo_trackinfomod for that area (To overcome some problems with panel splitter, don't know if they're added in newer builds), everything else is panel splitter and ELPlaylist.

Was wondering if someone could do me a HUGE favour?

Basically, I'd very much like to have the 'Browser' pop up menu on the left hand side of the picture; ith has 2 panels like: [ x ] [ ]

All I would like to do is have that box in the 'Library' tab which is the 4th along the bottom. I've tried messing around with code but in all honestly I have no idea of the language used.

Could someone please have a look and maybe even show me the code to insert into the config settings, which I have uploaded? - For anyone who knows what they are doing, would it not only involve copying and pasting the correct code?

Thanks in advance,

Craig

EDIT: It's also frustrating me to no end why the ALBUM RATING tag stops working randomly, but will work sometimes. tbh, I'd really like someone to just tidy up my foobar code :(

This is probably a really simple issue, but basically I've been running toolej's setup (or a mod, I forget) for some time now.

This is what it should look like:

But this is what it looks like every time I open foobar:

http://img217.imageshack.us/i/fooincorrect.jpg/

It's easily fixed by going to Preferences > PanelsUI and just clicking "Save All" without changing anything. Am I missing something really obvious here? It's a bit annoying.

Any help is appreciated.

My heavily modded MonoLite.

foobarx.th.png

There will eventually be more buttons in the iPod tab, ones to sync, eject, send playlists and manage contents, basically every function that foo_dop supports but since it took me hours to get the text off the original tab and make 6 more tabs it might be some time before I get the buttons added.

Anyone fancy making me some buttons?

Can you upload your customization/pm me a link? It looks good.

Is it possible to have a script that turns off album separation and headers for certain playlists in MonoLite?

I have a playlist that is all singles, but when I view it, I literally get album headers for every single song.

edit: NEvermind, found it. enable the playlist filter

      Just for anyone reading, AdGuard (the free, standalone MV3 extension) is quite good now, a direct competitor to uBlock Origin Lite and much more built-out than it.

      Yeah, when I saw that, I wanted to find the nearest nose. You can't find a good nose these days when you need one.
    • Anthropic launches Claude Fable 5, a state-of-the-art AI model that beats OpenAI's GPT-5.5

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Anthropic launches Claude Fable 5, a state-of-the-art AI model that beats OpenAI's GPT-5.5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in April, Anthropic announced Claude Mythos Preview, a frontier model with state-of-the-art coding capabilities. Due to the cybersecurity implications that would occur due to the availability of such a powerful model, Anthropic made it available to only a select set of companies around the world. The company's plan was to prepare appropriate guardrails before releasing such a powerful model to everyone. Now, after nearly two months, Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, its most capable AI model yet for general users. The company also announced Claude Mythos 5, the same underlying model as Fable 5, but with safeguards lifted, making it more suitable for selected cybersecurity and biology use cases. Claude Fable 5 sits a tier above its Opus models and it beats most other generally available models across areas including software engineering, knowledge work, vision, scientific research, and long-running autonomous tasks. To prevent model misuse, when Claude Fable 5 detects certain requests related to cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, or model distillation, the request will be routed to the Claude Opus 4.8 model. Anthropic claims that these safeguards trigger in less than 5% of sessions on average. However, for large organizations working on critical software, Claude Mythos 5 can be availed through Project Glasswing. Later, Anthropic has plans to expand access through a broader trusted access program. As you can notice in the benchmarks above, Fable 5 and Mythos 5 are state-of-the-art on most key AI benchmarks and they are well ahead of OpenAI's frontier model, GPT-5.5. For example, Fable 5 is the new state-of-the-art model for vision tasks. Also, Mythos 5 has the strongest cybersecurity capabilities of any model in the world. Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 are priced at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens, which is less than half the price of Claude Mythos Preview. Another big change is that Anthropic is making a change to the way they handle business customer data for both Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models. The company will now require 30-day retention for all traffic on both first- and third-party surfaces. Anthropic promises that it won't use the data to train Claude models, instead it will use it against complex and novel attacks. Claude Fable 5 is available today on the Claude API and consumption-based Enterprise plans. It is also included at no extra cost for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise customers from today through June 22. After that, users on those plans will need usage credits to continue using Fable 5, unless Anthropic extends the included access window based on capacity. Developers can access Fable 5 through the Claude API using the claude-fable-5 model name.
