Hmm, when I do that, the bitrate overlaps the album art and becomes unreadable.

Oh, I guess I forget to specify to put it after the existing entries under // Persecond, just right before the // Background

So it'd be something like this..

[color="#2E8B57"]// Persecond[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]something[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]something[/color][color="#0000FF"](%date%[/color]
,
[color="#A0522D"]something
something[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]something[/color]
[color="#0000FF"][%playback_time% / %length%][/color]

[b]Insert code here[/b]

[color="#008000"]// Background[/color]

Sorry I don't have the exact code for it. I've changed mine a bit (see below), so it probably doesn't have the same coding as yours

I moved some stuff around a bit and threw in the Channel spectrum analyser.

I've also made my fonts italics, because the Swis721 font wasn't displaying well (and I didn't want to globally turn on ClearType through windows settings.)

I found that making it all in italics actually helps the look of the font.

I'll add dynamic bitrate to my new version so don't worry if you can't make it on your own.

Some progress:

I have just added 'brand new' settings window :D Release soon

this is the best set up I've ever seen, but I can't get the new one (1.03+) to work whenever I try and change to that panel in panelsui it immediately reverts to default.

Are you using the beta version of PanelsUI? (0.14.12 beta)

This new config doesn't work with the 0.13.8 version

If you don't have the newest beta, find the link on the first page.

thanks that was precisely the problem. But I have a few other problems:

this may be a ridiculously stupid question, but I can't figure out how to adjust the volume or drag on the seekbar, unless those features are unavailable.

I also can't figure out how to get the visualization to work, it still says unavailable in transparency mode.

Also, is there anyway to get the old backgrounds for transparency in this one? It seems like theres a lot less.

Thanks

OK I get few issues:

- Library constantly scans itself

- Sometimes volume- and seekbars just disappears. Scroll hide is buggy and sometimes I cant get that Scrollbar visible

- Visualisation won?t work

- Ratings won?t work

- everytime i close foobar i got these warnings/errors in this order:

metadb_handle leaks: 1 object

Runtime Error! Program C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe

R6025
- pure virtual function call

Poikkeus unknown software expection (0x40000015) sovelluksessa paikassa 0x0141af69

(that error is finnish)

"No function" problem i solved by myself. I am totally noo:(:(

Edited by foba

I answered my own questions to an extent:

Regarding Volume adjustment as well as seeking I didn't realize that there were keyshortcuts for both. So problem solved there but I would still be interested to know if there is a way to adjust them differently.

Other issues still pending:

Visualizations in transparency mode

Getting old backgrounds for transparency mode

I've also made my fonts italics, because the Swis721 font wasn't displaying well (and I didn't want to globally turn on ClearType through windows settings.)

I found that making it all in italics actually helps the look of the font.

please advice how to change font to italic or any other workaround. I've the same problem with cleartype, it makes foo look good, but the rest of the system is terribly blurred (which is strange because i use LCD monitor plugged via DVI). thanks

Haha, it was painful to find all the codes that manipulates the text. If I were to list them, it'd take me a while (kinda busy with other stuff too.)

I basically just found each $font code in each script and tested it if that's the code I'm looking for by trial and error.

It's really scattered around, and I don't really have to time to list them all at the moment. Sorry

But I can get you started by showing you where the code is for SCPL (non-transparent mode)..

Right-click on the single column playlist and choose "Settings." Then press the "Item Display" button.

Find the following code and insert the word "italics" where shown. (2 entries)

(this is towards the end)

$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize_3),,$if(%_isplaying%,255-255-255,230-230-230))
$alignabs($ifgreater(%tracknumber%,999,31,$ifgreater(%tracknumber%,99,27,22)),0,$sub(%_width%,105),%_height%,,middle)$if(%disc%,' '-Disc %disc%- ,)$if($meta_test(album artist),$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize),$ifequal($getpvar(blue),1,glow-0-180-220 glowexpand-1 glowalpha-120,glow-200-30-30 glowexpand-1 glowalpha-120),$if(%isplaying%,255-255-255,250-250-250))%artist%' - ')$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize),[b][color="#FF0000"]italics[/color][/b],$if(%isplaying%,255-255-255,250-250-250))%title%
$alignabs(-5,0,%_width%,%_height%,right,middle)$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize),[b][color="#FF0000"]italics[/color][/b],$if(%isplaying%,255-255-255,250-250-250))$if(%isplaying%,%playback_time%,%length%)

And just to give you guys a sample of what I'm talking about.. I've added some Screenshots:

This is what the Swis721 Cn BT D-Type font looks like in the old version of Panels UI, which had ClearType

oldpanelsay7.jpg

This image is with the new Panels UI (no cleartype :( )that is needed with FooAVA103+

newpanelsxm4.jpg

And this is how it looks in italics (yeah I didn't italicize the track#)

newpanelseditkr2.jpg

It's still not perfect, but to me it looks a bit better on the eyes.

Good luck finding the ones you want to change!

Can someone be nice and upload the Lyrics DB plugin? I Just get a connection error from the site on the front page.

Dude, try to ping http://lyrics.mirkforce.net/ ;)

Site don't work... So, no site -- no lyrics :(

Turn on "Lyric show component" option in the FooAVA config (second page) and you recieve another lyrics panel :)

For that album art in SCPL, right click go to settings. Make sure you're in "Group Display"

find and enter in this code.

    $drawrect(1,8,37,37,brushcolor-null pencolor-180-180-180) 
    $imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,images\fooAVA\art5.png,nokeepaspect)
[b]    $imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$get(MyCoverPath),NOKEEPASPECT)[/b]
    $imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.gif),NOKEEPASPECT)
    $imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.png),NOKEEPASPECT)
    $imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg),NOKEEPASPECT)
    $imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*folder*.*),NOKEEPASPECT) 
    $imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*front*.*),NOKEEPASPECT) 
    $imageabs2(34,34,,,,,3,10,images\fooAVA\artoverlay.png,)
    $puts(xoffset,40) 

All of those "$imageabs" codes are layering an image on top of each other. The first code being the "bottom of the stack" and the last code being the "top of the stack." So order them however you prefer it.

For truncating long track names.. I thought I knew a solution for that, but I forgot what it is. I'll try to look it up later.

edit: ok, same settings window..

Find and replace the bold line with the code below

$font($get(fontAVA),$get(fontAVAsize_2),italics glow-74-127-210glowexpand-0 glowalpha-50,220-220-220)
[b]$alignabs($get(xoffset),18,$eval(%_width% - $get(xoffset) - 5),14,left,middle)[/b]
%album% 

$alignabs($get(xoffset),18,$sub(%_width%,100),14,,middle)

Edited by stripedphantom

Thanks!

truncating worked but after playing a bit with the code i still cant get the album art to display.

noo3zc1.png

I should note that I'm pulling album art from a /covers/ folder inside foobar2k's folder. However MyCoverPath should be pointing to that already by default.

in Globals:

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

Hi,

The font's of FooAvA 1.03+ is very fuzzy and unclean! How can i use the font setting of the old Version (1.03) without the "blure-effekt"???

Fonts in 1.03+

i8j8rlof.jpg

Fonts in 1.03 imho are clean!

And this "style" (with cd-case) looks much better as in the current version... :o

    • Exactly. They won't go 100 because current gen consoles are simply too old for any groundbreaking graphics or gaming experience otherwise. They will go with standard (console) price 70 or go with 80 if they really want to go premium. Of course they will have more expensive options too with some useless cosmetics as always.
    • Doesn’t surprise me at all. God is light & He gave us life so it sounds almost logical that we would therefore emit a certain amount of light.
    • This is what I want. Hey Gemini, how do I remove you from all my google products permanently?
    • I would never install install this build before rtm process. only 3 months to go. never install on your daily devices. just wait 3 months.
    • Motrix Next 3.9.6 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project.

The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management.

BitTorrent IPv6 DHT — Added IPv6 DHT support and related configuration. File category URL patterns — File category rules can match URL patterns with validation and localized hints. Task status tags — Added clearer waiting and sharing states for task cards. Download event bridge — Added an aria2 WebSocket event bridge for faster download notifications. Improvements Improved task list transitions and preserved task state during tab switches. Kept RPC origin access enabled for local integrations. Restored AppImage stripping in release builds after beta validation. Added localized preference guidance across supported languages.
