Everything you need is on my website, I'm writing instruction which will soon appear on this forum.

PS. All sugestions are welcomed, but don't ask me "How can I add/get rid of..."

great Job, thanks david!

looks beautiful and works fine so far. When I switched to foobar, i would not have imagined how nice this player can actually look.

However, is it possible to position the miniplayer independent from the main window? I would love to place the mini player in the lower right corner of my desktop, but have the main window show up somewhere else when i need it (it is cut-off when launching from the mini player in the corner).

nice work,

just 2 notes about mini player mode about spectrum channel

1) background columns don't match with position of the foreground columns (see screenshot)

2) the upper line background is missing, the spectrum go upper than the background pic, see the arrow pointer on the capture below :

Everything's alright but you need latest version of channel spectrum panel.

I have some technical issues with the new skin:

There is no way to refresh the Cover Art source like in 1.03+ (I could paste a Folder.jpg in the folder of the cd i was playing and it would show up, and if it didnt, I could right click on the cover and click "refresh source" or something)

When you press the middle arrow so its just one section (instead of Cover Art and Playlist) it uses an older Folder.jpg or I think "AlbumArtSmall.jpg" and you cannot refresh this either. This makes things look really weird when you're switching between the two settings and one shows no cover and the other shows a cover.

Also it's kind of eh to have all the stars in the playlist if there is no existing rating for it, maybe if you got rid of the stars in the playlist until there is a rating and just rate a song via the Cover Art panel or MiniPlayer?

Is there any way to remove files from playlist ?

When I click DEL or choose "Remove File(s) from Library" from context menu nothing happens. Is this a bug ?

As far as I remember it was OK in the previous version ?

There`s one more thing, link on artist/album name do nothing (no search, no visual change in UI etc.).

Apart from that .. skin is really great. Keep up the good work.

You don't have to sign your posts but I believe you could remove things in the playlist by pressing DEL in 1.03 but not 1.03+

Kinda wish this would be added back in honestly, or if someone could help me do it I'd love that, because currently it does nothing and it should never delete the actual files.

Also, in the FooAva settings, changing it to album art panel shows the cover just fine, and I can do all the stuff from the previous versions, but the Album Art View does not show it, unless I was to re-import the albums.

I have the same deleting problem (or lack of) in SCPL. I've played around and it seems like a problem with the new version of Foobar2000 v0.9.5. Things were fine in the last version I used, v0.9.4.5.

Also, your Album Art View not showing covers is probably because your "MyCoverPath" isn't set right. You'd have to go through Preferences > Display > PanelsUI > "Edit Layout" button > "Globals" button ... and look for $setpvar(MyCoverPath

(Search the thread if you don't know what to do from there, or just copy the code from your old config if you still have it.)

There`s one more thing, link on artist/album name do nothing (no search, no visual change in UI etc.).

Interesting, I've played around with that and it lookes like it re-arranges the SCPL according to artist or album.

Also, that link on the CD case spine does some funky stuff for me. I'm not sure what the exact purpose for that one is. It kinda overlays a part of SCPL and Lyrics Show Panel on the album art.

It's foobar 0.9.5 bug, see here: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=60392

You can create a keybord shortcut which assign 'remove' to delete key

I have the deletion issue aswell, and when i have lyrics set to autoscroll it doesnt work correctly. other than that everything else is perfect and i love it =0]

I am a major newbie to this and how do I get the lyrics to show?

I have tried to get the lyrics from the db, but eventhough i klick ok, it doesent show up. what am i doing wrong?

-Edit- when I exited foobar and started it again, the lyrics showed up. is that how it works? if so, i'm back to winamp.

I've just update components list in first post...

About the lyrics - ther are some problems with latest version of lyric show panel, but they will be fixed soon. Just check this site from time to time: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=55692

The right link for foo_cwb_hooks_1.2.6 is "http://foobar.bazquux.com/downloads/foo_cwb_hooks.zip", the one you give in 1st page, i think is an ols version.

Thx, works like a charm now (I was using wrong command with my shortcut). I`m still un sure what`s with these links. After reinstalling foobar and all its components links were not working again, fooling around with settings sorted that out (but I don`t really know what exactly helps, cause I was changing lots of them).

PS: Co wersja to lepsza, czekam na kolejne ;) Może coś w klimacie miniplayera ? Jest naprawdę świetny.

    • Beats Studio Pro wireless over-ear ANC headphones drop to their lowest price yet by Fiza Ali Amazon is currently offering the Beats Studio Pro headphones at their all-time low price. The Studio Pro use 40mm active drivers which are designed to improve clarity and reduce distortion compared to previous models, with up to an 80% improvement over the Beats Studio3 Wireless. A built-in digital processor adjusts frequency response to keep the sound balanced rather than overly boosted in any one area. They also include Active Noise Cancelling that adapts to your surroundings to reduce background noise along with a Transparency mode that lets outside sound in when you need awareness of what’s going on around you. Furthermore, the headphones support personalised Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking as well as Dolby Atmos playback on supported content. Moreover, built-in voice-targeting microphones improve call quality. You can also switch between three sound profiles including Beats Signature for balanced music playback, Entertainment for films and gaming, and Conversation for clearer voice in calls and podcasts. Physically, they are designed to be worn for long periods without feeling heavy or awkward. The ear cushions use UltraPlush engineered leather while metal sliders allow you to adjust the fit. On the connectivity side, the Studio Pro use Class 1 Bluetooth for a stable, long-range wireless connection. There is also a 3.5mm input if you want to plug in directly, including use with in-flight entertainment systems. Controls are located on the headphones and include a "b" button for music and call control, a volume rocker, and a multifunction button used for switching listening modes, EQ settings, power, and pairing. In addition, the headphones offer integration with both Apple and Android devices. On Apple devices, they support one-touch pairing with iCloud-linked devices, hands-free Siri access, Find My tracking based on last connected location, and automatic software updates. On Android devices, they support Google Fast Pair, Audio Switch between compatible devices, and Google Find My Device tracking, with additional features available through the Beats app. When it comes to the battery performance, it is rated at up to 40 hours of listening time with ANC turned off, and up to 24 hours with ANC or Transparency mode enabled. A 10-minute Fast Fuel charge should provide up to 4 hours of playback. Finally, the headphones use a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and charge via USB-C.

    • Hands on with the ProtoArc EM25: Affordable ergonomic mouse that focuses on the right things by Taras Buria ProtoArc is known for making all sorts of office products with a big focus on ergonomics and comfort. Its latest product, the EM25, promises a comfortable-to-use, affordable, and customizable mouse. We took one for a spin; here are our impressions. The ProtoArc EM25 is a $49.99 mouse, but right now, during Prime Day 2026, you can get it for just $37.99. Right off the bat, you can see that the EM25 is inspired by Logitech's MX Master lineup and the legendary MX Master 3/3S. Its shape and proportions are very similar, so for a person with large hands (right-handed person, mind you), the EM25 is very comfortable to use. The mouse fills the palm, and the thumb rests on a small extension, giving your wrist a small tilt to reduce strain. The mouse is made of black plastic without any coating, eliminating long-term wear concerns. However, I can see the main buttons and other areas you touch the most getting polished over time. Despite its size and bulk, the mouse is not too heavy. It weighs about 100 grams, which is significantly less than the MX Master 3S and its successor. It is no lightweight gaming mouse by any means, but it is not excessively heavy like the MX Master 4. The EM25 has a built-in storage for its USB dongle. It is a cleverly made magnetic flap that you open by simply pressing on it. Next to the flap, you will find the on/off switch, the 1,000 Hz sensor, and a DPI button (up to 8,000 DPI). I find the DPI button location a bit odd, and I would prefer it somewhere below the main scroll wheel. Still, given that I never change DPI on my mice, I will let it pass. What is more important is that, unlike MX Master 3/3S/4, the device switch button is located below the left-click button, which allows you to switch devices without lifting and flipping the mouse. For a multi-device setup, this is a perfect solution: the button does not require too much effort to use, it does not get in your way, but it is also easily reachable with your thumb. The main scroll wheel has two modes: ratcheted and free-flow. You can only change between them with a bright orange button (I like this little touch of color), which is sprung and requires some effort to press. The wheel is dead-silent in free-flow mode, but ratched is quite loud and stiff, perhaps even too much to my liking. I can hardly call it deal-breaking, but it will certainly take some time to get used to. The side scroll wheel, it is notched, silent, and pleasant to use. Next to it, you can find a piece of glossed plastic with connection indicators: Dongle, Bluetooth 1, Bluetooth 2, and the low battery indicator. By the way, the built-in battery is rechargeable via a USB Type-C cable, which is included. It is sleeved and has an orange velcro strap to keep it tidy. After using the EM25 for a few weeks, I can say that its main buttons are my absolute favorite. They have very pronounced clicks, which feel great with just the right amount of force required to register a press. I would say they feel like something in between regular mouse clicks and silent ones. You can hear and feel the springy switch, but it is not sharp or loud to the point of annoying you. As for back/forward and device switch buttons, they are very clicky and quite noisy. Unfortunately, there are no extra buttons that you can map to specific things like in the MX Master lineup. Besides great primary clicks, another thing I like about the EM25 is its 1,000 Hz sensor. In the world, where Logitech still uses 125 Hz sensors in $100+ mice, seeing a much faster sensor in a mouse that costs three times less is very refreshing. Also, all the settings and customization you make are stored on-device, and you do not need to install any software. Just open the web-based app and change all that you need. Speaking of customization, you can remap what buttons do, adjust the DPI, and the sensor speed. Sadly, gestures are not supported, but you can still map pretty much anything to each button, including shortcuts, media buttons, and more. I also recommend using software like XMouseControl, as it will let you remap the side scroll wheel. At the end of the day, the ProtoArc EM25 is a great mouse. Clearly inspired by the MX Master lineup, it takes the best of it and complements it with a much more wallet-friendly price tag, significantly better sensor, on-device memory, a built-in storage for the dongle, and more (it fixes everything that I complained about the MX Master 4 recently). And for only $37.99 during Prime Day, the EM25 is an easy recommendation. Buy ProtoArc EM25 mouse - $37.99 | 24% off with Prime As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
