This thread has been a great help.  I'm getting everything the way i like.

I have two more questions:

I have the track info panel DLL in the correct place, but i can't get it to show up.

I'm using columnsUI 0.1.2 beta 3 (is there a more recent one?)

the newest version is beta 4, released 26/11.. download here..

musicmusic's site will always have the newest releases first.. after the thread on hydrogenaudio..

anyone use foo_osd? mind sharing your configs for it?

here's mine:

How do I change the icon circled in red?

And is there a plugin which displays scrolling lyrics? Auto-search on the web for lyrics would also be nice :D.

To change the icon in red you will need to use res hacker to hack the foobar executable file.

As for the lyrics I havn't used it but this should work.

The guy on Hydrogenaudio says:

Enable/check: Preferences->Display->Columns UI->Other->List all toolbars

Then right click the toolbar area and open a panel that has a "Minimum height" setting (e.g. foo_uie_tabs, foo_uie_albumlist). Then use this setting to adjust the size of the area above playlist.

I don't use this kind of layout myself, so I haven't verified this...

Thanks for your info, but i have still this problem because i have already a panel on left side:

fooletzt8uv.th.jpg

That means, i don't know how to make a "second one" above playlist. :no:

It's possible to make more on left side ..... i know, but not on right side!

OK, i will try again.

Maybe i need "foobar 0.8.3"?

EDIT:

I already found it!

But: "Then use this setting to adjust the size of the area above playlist."

How can i do this?

Edited by Strictly4me

Go into preferences, and go to 'Album list panel' under the 'Components' section. Near the bottom is a box that says 'Minimum height:'. Increasing the number in this box abover 0 will define the height of the album-list panel in the tool bar in (as far as i can tell -- i didn't measure it or anything) pixels. e.g., putting in 250 will make the album list 250 pixels tall.

Cool, i found it.

But it's only working for 'Album list panel', "Database Explorer Panel", etc.

Not for the Tabs and Albumcover! - They are still small.

Maybe you have any idea for both of them?

sure, here it is.. using OSD 1.29.2..

0080ff|000000[%artist% - ]$if(%title%,[']']$num(%tracknumber%,2). %title%,%_filename%)
[$char(10)ebc198|000000'['%album%']']  00ffff|000000[%_time_elapsed%]$if(%_ispaused%,' 0f0fff|000000[PAUSED]') 00ffff|000000~$pad_right($num($muldiv(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,100,%_time_total_seconds%),2),3)'%'

[$char(10)61dca8|000000Next: cfa923|000000%_next%]

How do you get the Ratings column?

585077259[/snapback]

You 'get' the ratings column the same way you get any other column -- you add a column called 'ratings' to the Columns UI settings. ... More specifically, you need to do two things.

Firstly, get the Quick Tag plug-in, which lets you assign tag-update tasks to the context menu. (For example, you can assign a task to set the RATING tag of a file to 2.)

Secondly, create your ratings column, however you want to do it. You don't need Columns UI if you don't want, it works either way. But make a spot where it will display the ratings tag somehow. Probably you want to do this graphically (like a rating of 5 will show five dots), but you can do it lots of different ways. If you want to return the number, you can just set it to display %rating%. If you want to do dots you can do something like: $ifgreater(%rating%,0,$repeat(●,%rating%)$repeat( ,$sub(5,%rating%)),)

Strictly4me, it only works with panels that have a 'minimum height' property. I don't use the tabs or the album-cover plug-ins, so i don't know anything about them, but if they don't have a minimum-height property they won't display right. Try upgrading to newer versions?

    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.
    • They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.
    • Right, Google... because that's who this is going to. Google, the company who's entire business model is geared around ad revenue and your personal data.
    • That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.
    • I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
