Maybe a dropdown button listing all the artists... Dunno. Was thinking more in the lines of something like this:

See the left pane? Well, something like that. This is my foobar config:

I love the way I can just click on an artist, and the entire playlist changes.

As much as I love the aesthetics of your config, it needs a wee bit more intuitivness.

See the dropdown arrows in my current config? It shows the folder structure. But nothing more. I'd love an option, much like Vista's explorer, to click on the dropdown arrow, and a menu with the entire list of similar items drops down.

So for example, if I clicked on "Blackmore's night" other artists would drop down. Analogly, if I'd click on "Shadow of the moon" all albums by Blackmore's night would drop down. You get my picture ;)

Now that would be mega-sweet.

I like it, but isn't it redundant to place the artist name on the bottom of each track?

May I suggest another feature? Thumbnails beside the artist name on the album list! :)

It looks fine imo :)

My work on new version is temporarily suspended - I'm starting study next Monday so you'll have to be patient as I have other things to do at the moment. I won't be available for several weeks/months. I hope that some advanced f2k users would help others on this thread. Thx in advance.

I like it too. It could be very useful for various artists albums. But, could there be an option to disable it in the config control panel?

Dawxxx could implement the isVarious Track global to determine whether to show the artist name or not.

Great skin and everything. I have one small problem though.

How do I get a picture of an artist instead of "no artist"? I have

tried putting a picture (named after the artist) under the same

location as the albumfolder.

The front and backcover works though and they are in the same

folder as the album.

dawxxx666, thanx for great work & great skin for foobar... I'm forget about winamp 8)

1. Your default fonts don't support russian symbols (but this not deadly ;) )

2. I'm can't see egoh spectrum alalyser (few minutes and google help me find needed plugin)... Link this plugin in Plugin requirements

From the man himself. Too bad, I've been waiting forever for a new release. :(

Just a question... When I select something from the album list on the left, I have to right click and "send to playlist" to view the contents.

What do I need to do to make it work like the album list option says: "Always send to playlist: Library View"?

Also, I'd like the albums in the album list pane to be sorted by year, not albumname.

You mean album list pane or library filter instead of album list?

For Library Filter: Preferences->display->PanelsUI then select "Send to playlist ..." from Actions

Edit:

Just click rmb on album list->view->by year

Here's what I'd like to know. On the left pane (library view), how to sort the albums to match the right pane - that is, by year?

Also, is it possible to make the "Artist" filter expanded by default, since I'd like to delete the others.

Finally, how to make the album list (left) not expand all the way to the tracks? Doesn't make much sense to me, since I have those on the right? To put it simple, the farthest it could expand is like in the screenshot.

PS:

Any way to make it play automatically when I send to the playlist?

Example: I set my middle mouse button to send to playlist and activate. Is it possible to configure it to play the first track automatically?

PPS:

Any way to remove the artist picture :p?

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.

      Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By ZipZapRap · Posted

      Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
