Foobar2000 Customization Topic


Recommended Posts

just a quick one, is it just me or can't single column playlist play songs by pressing enter?

(as in, selecting a song in the playlist with arrow keys, then press enter)

When I'm using the single column playlist I cannot use the keyboard to do anything, I have keys set up to do lots of things (like rate the song etc) and the only way I can do things like that is to use the context menu.

If I need to do a lot of tag editing I just switch back to the columnsui layout.

It seems all the plugins I put in the components folder are out-dated.

How do I make it so when I close and open Foobar, the playlist that was there doesn't start up again?

The songs I played yesterday are still in there when I opened it this morning. I want a fesh playlist.

its all done with the $imageabs2() function of the latest single columns playlist, i've been toying around with it, and will write a guide of some sort when i have some spare time..

that's down to my code. it's only showing the artist info because those are various artist albums tagged with %album artist%. there is no need for single artist albums as the artist is already shown in the group header.....

my font is tahoma, 8 - add this code to the start of the item display section

$font(Tahoma,8,,)

Hi,

I would like to know how can i join the buttons in the new version of foobar like this shot : http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/316712...me+-in%3Ascraps

, because in older versions was easy, now with the new one i dont know because the buttons load diferently.

And how can i open a .FCB file to get the images from there, plz ?

Thanks a lot

Bye :)

to open an fcb file, you need to apply it to the toolbar

right click buttons toolbar > customise.. > click "tools" button > load from file.

the images are extracted into foobar2000/images folder.

to make your own set, each button must be the same size.

I want to actually try to use this software finally, but making it look nice is way beyond something i feel i can take the time to do, are there pre made UI's i can DL, i see some of yalls here and they are awesome and ive tried to go thru some tutorials on how to customize this and i wanted to hurt my pc lol. Ive followed some of the tutorials but these addons they require always seem tobe out of date when i start up foobar, always get an error message

You can change the sliders appearance by using other visual styles.

Orly? ??

[/sarcasm]

I'm looking to change *only* the slider's images, any ideas?
