Two questions:

1) How to make the foobar head replace the EQ button?

2) How do I make my bitrate dynamically change for VBR?

1 right click on the eq button, settings, find (end of the config)

// Foo button
$ifequal($getpvar(showpanel),2,
,
$ifequal($getpvar(blue),1,
$button2(10,$sub(%_height%,57),0,0,20,21,
'$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize_2),,240-240-240) EQ ',
'$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize_2),glow-140-210-220 glowexpand-1 glowalpha-120,0-200-255) EQ ',Equalizer,TOOLTIP:Equalizer)
,
$button2(10,$sub(%_height%,57),0,0,20,21,
'$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize_2),,240-240-240) EQ ',
'$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize_2),glow-255-50-50 glowexpand-1 glowalpha-120,240-240-240) EQ ',Equalizer,TOOLTIP:Equalizer)))

and change it to:

// Foo button

$ifequal($getpvar(showpanel),2,
,
$button2(10,$sub(%_height%,57),0,0,16,16,
'$imageabs2(,,,,,,0,0,/images\pure3\f2k.png,)',
'$imageabs2(,,,,0,,0,0,/images\pure3\f2k_2.png,)',
Equalizer,TOOLTIP:Equalizer))

2

find in //PerSecond (end of the config)

$if(%__bitrate%,$get(spacer)%__bitrate%' kb/s',)

and change it to:

$if2($info(bitrate_dynamic)' Kbps',$info(bitrate)' Kbps')

This is weird. I downloaded version Foo AvA_DX6 1.02 when it was out. That worked fine. I modified it a little to my own tastes.

Today when i upgraded it to Foo AvA_DX6 1.02d. Everything is SLOW. lagging.

At first I just dropped the new files into place (as I usually do.)

Then I did a clean install in addition to the necessary components listed.

Still slow.

I don't think it's the new PanelsUI version, as the old version 1.02 works fine with it. Just not with version 1.02d.

ColumnsUI also works fine. I've even tried toggling the album art setting as mentioned before, still slow.

And some weird [unknown Function] in upper left.

Something in the pui settings is buggy for me. Anyone else? Any ideas?

Same here. My foobar gets messed up with the config also. Like I get the Unknown Function things and the double minimize, maximize and close buttons. Would love to know what's messing it up.

Thanks a lot for aiding to my laziness.

any tutorial on how to install this?

any help is appreciated

well, it depends on the depth of help you need. do you need help extracting files from an archive or... to what extent do you need help?

The main thing you have to do, really, is to extract files from ZIP files.

Do you have AIM or some other chat client? PM me, I will assist you when we have coinciding time.

Same here. My foobar gets messed up with the config also. Like I get the Unknown Function things and the double minimize, maximize and close buttons. Would love to know what's messing it up.

Unknown function relates to a missing component. For example, I didn't install "playlist dropdown" and it showed "unknown function" in the placeholder.

Make sure you have all the components.

where do i go to add %play_count% right before the ratings in the playlist?

Insert in item display:

$alignabs($sub(%_width%,55,$add($get(rating_w),)),3,$sub($get(rating_w),6),13,right,top)
$font($get(fontAVA),7,,$if(%_isplaying%,255-255-255,150-150-150))
%play_count% play$if($strcmp(%play_count%,1),,s)

Change in code:

$ifgreater(%_width%,[b]700[/b],
$button2($sub(%_width%,71),3,0,0,25,16,
'$imageabs2(,,,,0,,0,0,/images\pure3\bar\max1$ifequal($getpvar(buttons),1,,_).png,)',
'$imageabs2(,,,,0,,0,0,/images\pure3\bar\max$ifequal($getpvar(blue),1,2,3).png,)',
WINDOWSIZE:'[b]700[/b]':'[b]550[/b]':LEFT:TOP,TOOLTIP:"Change window size")
,
$button2($sub(%_width%,71),3,0,0,25,16,
'$imageabs2(,,,,0,,0,0,/images\pure3\bar\max1$ifequal($getpvar(buttons),1,,_).png,)',
'$imageabs2(,,,,0,,0,0,/images\pure3\bar\max$ifequal($getpvar(blue),1,2,3).png,)',
WINDOWSIZE:'900':'650':LEFT:TOP,TOOLTIP:"Change window size")
)

..double minimize, maximize and close buttons. Would love to know what's messing it up.

You'll need to check "Hide Titlebar" in the settings

Install PanelsUI 0.13.8 from http://panels.fooblog2000.com/

Now I have 0.13.8beta. It solved The "Unknown Function" problems, but Foobar still runs slow.

your component folder should look something like this *attached*

I have most of that (minus the 'single column playlist' and 'trackinfomod' as they're part of PanelsUI now,right?)

Foobar still slow for some odd reason..

Does that mean I'm missing something or have something in excess?

Everyone, thanks for your help thus far.

@ stripedphantom

Try to reinstall foobar2000 and download my config once again. Do you have UPDATED version of all components?

I have most of that (minus the 'single column playlist' and 'trackinfomod' as they're part of PanelsUI now,right?)

Right

Clean installed Foobar 0.9.4.3.

Dropped in Foo_ava dx6 1.02d.

Added updated necessary components listed in your Deviantart page.

Still slow for every action :(

Please check if I'm missing something important.

    • I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.
    • I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
