Dude! font that used in config don't support any encoding except english :)

So if you want to see Japanese/Chinese/Korean characters just change fonts in config manually ;)

Excuse me, but how am I supposed to do that? before I installed dawxxx666's skin, I could do it at "default user interface" but once I had the skin, this option appears as blocked, alas, I can't modify it.

Could anyone tell me what to do instead? I don't know much about foobar.

Thanks.

Can someone help, I'm a noob at this game and just can't get my code right for track info panel.

Currently it is:

// PerSecond

$align(center,top)$font(calibri,15,bold,255-255-255)

ffffff%playback_time% - %length%$char(10)

//PerTrack

$align(left,bottom)$font(calibri,10,uppercase,255-255-255)

D7B997Title: ffffff%title%$char(10)

D7B997Artist: F3EAE0%artist%$char(10)

D7B997Album: F3EAE0%album%$char(10)

This is working ok, as can be seen in screenshot, but how do I add padding to the bottom section?? I tried $pad(x,y) but I think I have the syntax wrong or something?? Please help?

Of cause!

Just go into Foo2k Preferences->Panels UI->Edit Layout->Globals (button at the right bottom of window :) )

You'll see something like this:

$ifgreater($getpvar(MyFont),0,
//hooge 05_53
	$puts(fontAVA,[b]Trebuchet MS[/b])
	$puts(fontAVAsize,8)
	$puts(fontAVAsize_2,8)
	$puts(fontAVAsize_3,8)
	$puts(fontAVAsize_4,8)
,
// Swis721 Cn BT D-Type
	$puts(fontAVA,[b]Tahoma[/b])
	$puts(fontAVAsize,8)
	$puts(fontAVAsize_2,8)
	$puts(fontAVAsize_3,7)
	$puts(fontAVAsize_4,8)
)
$if($fontexists([b]Tahoma[/b]),
// hooge 05_53
	$puts(fontrating,[b]Tahoma[/b])
,
	$puts(fontrating,[b]Tahoma[/b])
)
$if($fontexists(),
// HandelGotD
	$puts(fontlyrics,[b]Tahoma[/b])
,
// Swis721 Cn BT D-Type
	$puts(fontlyrics,[b]Tahoma[/b])
)

Just change font-names that I marked and you'll get custom foobar :)

Hi, dawxxx666

I love your config. It's great :) been using it for a while. and there is something i want to ask.

I used 1.0.3+ with PUI 14.12b, I found that if i hover my mouse over some button (hide,exit,miniplayer,search,next&previous playlist, maybe another) CPU usage will jump up to 50% for a few seconds. it's happen even from fresh install & unmoded. at first i thought it's normal but i never seen something like this happen with any another config before.

So i tried version 1.0.3 and it doesn't happen. So i thought maybe there is a problem with 1.0.3+. can you (or someone else) check it out?

Thank you so much!!! it worked, I can finally use it properly :woot:

Feature Request:

I have a suggestion for further improving that fantastic skin:

The arrow in the middle of the main window opens/closes the playlist.

It would be great to have such a button at the left edge of the main screen

to open the albumlist at the left of the albumart:

albumlist:albumart:playlist

Besides that a nearly perfect skin!!!

Winamp has gone from my hdd now...

OK, after a bit of experiment i finally found that Channel spectrum with Transparent background "on" cause this CPU spike.

After some modding by draw Channel spectrum in the left track display panel (the one that show album art) and use "Fast pseudo-tranparent mode" instead of at main layout. (Which you can't use "Fast pseudo-tranparent mode" in Channel spectrum because it will cause glitch display.) and problem is gone. my cpu usage is reduced, and it's look exactly just like real transparent mode.

Now, I am happy. Thanks for the great config dawxxx666 :)

Hello, I have modded FooAvA a bit to get that clear glass effect on Vista. I just have one small problem:

I have a small square hole on each individual cover art on the right playlist panel which I have been unable to fix, attached is a screenshot of what I am talking about.

@JJJ

Here is what you need to do to properly display your album art:

Right click on the album art portion of the playlist, go to settings, make sure you are in Group Display:

	$drawrect(1,8,37,37,brushcolor-null pencolor-180-180-180) 
	$imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,images\fooAVA\art5.png,nokeepaspect)
	$imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$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%,*.bmp),NOKEEPASPECT)
	$imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*cover*.*),NOKEEPASPECT)
	$imageabs2(33,33,,,,,3,10,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*folder*.*),NOKEEPASPECT) 
	$imageabs2(34,34,,,,,3,10,images\fooAVA\artoverlay.png,)
	$puts(xoffset,40)

Replace the current chunk with that, it adds .bmp support and also adds the additional search for cover/folder images.

First of all, try to to get rid of all blur effects, e.g.:

$font($get(fontAVA),9,glow-20-20-20glowexpand-0 glowalpha-100,255-255-255)

change it to:

$font($get(fontAVA),9,,255-255-255)

How about updates? :unsure:

I'm quite busy now :( Maybe in January 2008...

I just started using foobar yesterday, and I love it already. It's very nice aesthetically, and simple to use.

I noticed that if you use the new foobar beta release with the components provided for fooava 1.03, you'll get very weird, and mixed, results. If anyone is having problems with this, it's probably because they didn't EXACTLY follow the tutorial. Good job to everyone who's help with this, with a massive thank you to David.

Someone using the newer 1.03+ build, could you please post a picture of your components folder? I think I'm missing something, but I'm not entirely sure.

what font is used for fontAVA?

It's Swis721 Cn BT D-Type

Make sure that you have latest version of those files :)

scrollbargayness.jpg

The scroll bar along the right side looks incredibly out of place. It wasn't an issue until I started adding more tracks, but I haven't gone back through the forum for the solution. Also, some of the fonts seem like they're crowded together.

components.jpg

I guess I have some catching up to do...

After some searching, I found these two sites that have a good deal of components available for download:

http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?ti...:Components_0.9

http://www.fooblog2000.com/components

Are there any other sites that have a large amount of components available for download?

I still cannot find the following components that dawxxx666 has in his component folder (some were "available" but the links were dead):

Dolby Headphone Wrapper 1.1 (foo_dsp_dolbyhp)

Channel Spectrum panel 0.10.1 (foo_uie_vis_channel_spectrum)

Playlists Dropdown 0.6 alpha 4 (foo_uie_playlists_dropdown) <-- up to alpha 6, but links are all dead

File Operations 2.0 (foo_fileops)

Please let me know where I can find these. I'm almost willing to invest in a file server or making a torrent for all of these.

http://foobar2000.xrea.jp/index.php

This is a great site where you can find here latest components before someone post them on hygrogenaudio.org ;)

Thanks, I managed to everything but File Operations (foo_fileops v2.0). Oh well, I guess...

I just started using this 2 days ago. VS? Visual settings? Also, I don't know how to manually turn on ClearType. I'll spend some time digging through threads... :|

Thanks for all your help. It's really awesome that you spend the time helping people with this. Rarely does some one who's invested the time writing the code take the time to help out others when there's problems.

    • This Samsung T7 external SSD deal lasts less than a day by Sayan Sen Recently we had covered some nice deals of internal NVMe SSDs which include the 4TB TeamGroup G50 for only $400, the WD_BLACK SN7100 2TB for just $243, as well as the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB for $370. If however you require an external SSD for portability and quick data transfers and have a budget of less than $200 the Samsung T7 1TB model is currently on a limited time deal at just $190, it's lowest price in nearly three months. The deal ends today so you better hurry if you need one (purchase link below). The T7 weighs in at just 72 grams meaning it should be fairly easy to carry around helping in the portability department. Via its USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface the T7 promises sequential read speeds of up to 1050 MB/s and writes of 1000 MB/s. It is also fairly robust with a drop protection of up to 2 meters, though bear in mind that this is not waterproof. For that you will have to choose the rugged T7 Shield. The technical specifications of the Samsung T7 1TB are given in the table below: Specification Value Model Code (1TB) MU-PC1T0T / MU-PC1T0H Interface USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Dimensions (W × H × D) 85 × 57 × 8 mm Weight 72 g Sequential Read Speed Up to 1,050 MB/s Sequential Write Speed Up to 1,000 MB/s Drop Resistance Up to 2 m (6.6 ft) Encryption AES 256-bit hardware encryption Operating Temperature 0°C to 60°C Non-Operating Temperature -40°C to 85°C Humidity 5% to 95% (non-condensing) Shock Resistance 1,500 G, duration 0.5 ms, 3-axis (non-operating) Vibration Resistance 20–2,000 Hz, 20 G (non-operating) Get it at the link below: Samsung T7 Portable SSD, 1TB External Solid State Drive, MU-PC1T0T/AM, Gray: $189.98 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I just wish they would put more love into Virtual Desktops. There is just so much more they could do.
    • Sounds like you just skimmed over the review, I answer all those questions in it. Although I admit I did not test if DTS works over the headphones, when I get some time I will test this. My personal use case is more speaker-driven (I cover this in the review too).
    • It actually does the same exact thing as yours, 7.1 virtual surround over headphones. From the product page: "Experience sound that surrounds you with 7.1 virtual surround, delivering a wider, more immersive soundstage for movies, games, and music." So both of them are two channel, with 7.1 virtual surround that only work in Headphones mode.
