I have playcount on the list but it shows everwhere "? plays" ... what I have to change to make it work

EDIT: found the problem: setting for playcount mod: use PLAY COUNT, setting for playlist (with right mouse button on playlist): use %play counter% instead of %play count%

so I need to download another mod? A "play count mod" in order for this to work?

[morca007]

Thanks very much! It's been a while since I used anything but a very minimal config.

Sorry but it would be great to have a combined (stereo) peakmeter AND (mono) spectrum analyser,

I mean a spectrum analyser with both left and right channels (L in blue and R in red for instance).

what do you think?

Another example is :

I hope it gives you an idea...

It would be great to "see" how the music we listen has been mixed by sound engineers...

this is a basic idea but it could be interesting, what do you think?

Something else would be the possibility to mute one channel, I mean only listen to the left or the right channel

and so on...

I would be interested in doing that kind of things but how to start?

no just download everything from 1st post (there's playcount mod link)

Dawxxx666 only creates the layout of the way Foobar looks with the components he's given. He cannot directly change the way the spectrum analyser looks or any other components.

..Just like how he can't add transparency support to either the analysers or peakmeters.

Each component has it's limits on its functions, and you'd have to find the original creator of each component if you want to suggest changes.

@ThePitt: sure! here it goes:

thanks!

[SHADOW-XIII]

Found something even more odd :D

Normal mode: to see play count I need to use %play_counter% in item display on playlist

Small mode: to see play count I need to use %play_count%

same thing to different tags ? (playcount mod plugin is using PlayCount setting and my music is tagged with <PLAY COUNT> so I think normal mode is bad)

O_o

When I install foo_playcount_mod Version 1.0.2 I got this:

Yes I understand that we only have a dll for the spectrum analyzer...

but unfortunately I can not manage to find the e-mail of its creator... someone knows who is he ?

Hey,

I guess this is a noob-question but I still haven't figured it out how to get Various Artists -albums display properly. They show up as if the artist in the album's first track would be same for the whole album (it displays only track title in title-section, when they should show up like "Artist - title" in it. How to get it work right? In other words, for VA -albums should be: Artist = none (or VA) / Album = album / Title = "Artist - Title" and so on.

Anyways, once again, great job dawxxx666 & co.

Cheers,

Jari

If you fill the Tag "Album Artist" with "Various Artists":

that tag will be used for grouping and the "Artist Name" of the track will be shown in the playlist:

that new version (beta 5) makes my foobar crash as soon as it click on the lyrics panel. I switched back to the earlier version (beta 4).

Preferences->PanelsUI->Edit layout->Globals

Then find

// Covers (front, back & artist) path

and replace whole section using this code:

// Covers (front, back & artist) path
$setpvar(MyCoverPath,
[b]$if(
$fileexists($replace(%foobar_path%\covers\%artist% - %album%.jpg,?,)),
$replace(%foobar_path%\covers\%artist% - %album%.jpg,?,),[/b]
    $if(
        $fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*front*.jpg)),
        $replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*front*.jpg),
            $if(
                $fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*folder*.jpg)),
                $replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*folder*.jpg),

reverting to the beta 4 helped out, thanks :)

nice work with the config !

only one thing that bothers me is that when the playlist doesn't need the scroll bar and that it is set to hidden, it gets hard to read the time for each song because it's moved to the right...

is there a way to fix that ?
