You just have to run the fonts .exe file and it will automatically install without even bothering you. If you like it manual or if for some reason it doesn't work for you, you can always extract the fonts to a folder of your liking and copy (install) them to fonts system folder. It looks really good with these fonts.

Thanks, another question, after i've installed those fonts, where in foobar do go to use them? i know there is a font options in the ava_settings window, but non of the fonts in the pack show up there...

First I just want to thank dawxxx666 for this awsome config! Awsome work!

I have some small problems though.

Firstly I can't get the pictures of the artists showing. I have all of mine in E:\Mina dokument\Mina bilder\Artister

Which code should I replace with what?

Secondly I have some small problems with the albumart for two of my albums.

I have all albumarts saved in E:\Min musik\*artist*\*album*\*artist* - *album*.jpg and this works for all except two of my albums.

For these two I get two pictures with very low resolution in the playlist view and in the cover art viewer. If I click on the cover in the cover art viewer though I can get the picture I have saved in the folder showing but nothing changes in the playlist view.

Any ideas?

You probably don't listen to a lot of unknown stuff then. But anyway, There's gotta be a way to fix that. It is a big problem

Hmm. Can you write components? Because I can't, and I don't think that what you want is possible at this moment. My advice for you:

1. You can turn off aspect ratio

2. Try to download covers in normal (500x500) resolution

And don't ask me, try to contact with album art panel's author.

hmmm all my covers is 500x500

& i dont have any problems finding covers

If all else fails use photoshop or some similar software to edit the cover to the proper size. There are healing brushes and other tools that can be used to make the up for the missing bits. Or just crop the image to the proper aspect ratio.

Have you tried using AlbumArt Downloader to find your covers. For the most part, I've had no problem finding covers at least 500x500 in size

My foobar won't display unicode characters (I'm trying Korean right now) but it does work. the unicode characters from foobar shows in the MSN "now playing" function and on last.fm. but on the foobar window it will show simply as "squares"

I've tried "settings" on the playlist pannels and changed fonts but didn't work. I also tried going to preferences > display > default user interface but it says it is already using one and I can't change it.

All my other programs such as Winamp, Windows Media Player and MSN can display unicode characters so it means I do have it installed.

I really think it has something to do with the font but where exactly do I change it and which one should I use?

      Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.

      Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
