I didn't notice that problem, but FooAvA 1.04 code is FUBAR so every bug is possible ;) I don't want to play with it anymore...

Lol, thanks to wikipedia to teached me the meaning of FUBAR ^^.

Ok, ok, I'll still live with an 0% alpha background and with hard playlist scroll... there is badest things in life, no ? ;-)

(but if you want to follow a different way with your next graphical style, different of that WMP looks, that's ok for me :D, (in native : si tu veux suivre une voie diff?rente concernant ton prochain style graphique, diff?rente du style WMP, ce sera ok pour moi:p:p)

Have a nice day.

hmm... First of all, make sure that you have Album Art Panel enabled in FooAvA Settings. Next click RMB on Album Art-> choose Preferences and:

a) select Behaviour-> check 'Cycle sources during playback'

b) select Sources-> remove all and add path to My Pictures folder

sorry for me being a noob, but i think that the foobar is searching the picture titled like album/artist so this doesnt work... i think it should be a plugin so you can only choose a destination folder of the pictures and set the cycle time that would be what i want, so can you make something else tomake this work?? please i want to enable this function

Guys, I've been using 1.04 beta (it's the best player I've ever used) but for some reasons it doesn't work anymore. So I've switched to 1.04 but I have some problems, I hope you can help me.

First of all, all of my ratings and play counts are gone. Weird, cause I didn't change any settings. I want them back, is it possible?

And also, I'd like to remove play button and overlay over album art when I select another song while the first one is playing (follow cursor) and I don't want to have all of the text in uppercase.

Thanks in advance

Hi, as you can see im new at this forum and to FooBar aswell... this configuration is so good that finally i decided to give it a chance, i have 3 days playing with the settings and i have some issues that i need to figure out how to solve, here's a screenshot:

foowb5.th.jpg

What i Need:

1.- to get rid of the tracknumber WITHOUT tagging my mp3's...

2 and 3.- to delete the year of the album, in both the playlist and the now playing panels,also if it's possible, to center the name of the album in the playing now panel...

Also, as you can see, all the artists have the same artwork and i don't know how to fix it, i have all my tracks in the same folder and tagged as part of the same album (technoir recordings), but every artist has its own artwork and i cant make foobar to read the artwork from the individual tracks... WMP 11 and iTunes can read the artwork tag with no problems...

Any help will be appreciated...

Thanx to dawxxx666 for sharing this awesome config. and just one question: is iAvA just dropped?? or it will be part of your next release? im not asking when it will be released, i just want to know if it is still a WIP :p

ciao...

Amazing config dawxxx666! The only one i got working properly (almost) :)

I can't seem to get the lyrics to show up even though i download and apply them. The only thing it says is the Artist Title and Album?

And is it possible configuring each playlist separately, because i got a lot of single songs in one playlist that isn't properly tagged?

Cheers!

I didn't check the thread in quite some time and I'm surprised to see so many foaVa 1.04 issues/complaints. I've been using fooaVa 1.04 since its beta releases and never came across one bug. am I lucky or something?

Just a question, with fooAvA, how to make my artist images work?

My folder path are like this:

\artist\album\song.mp3

The album picture is in the album folder and named like the album name. It works.

The artist picture is in the artist folder, and named like the artist name, but it doesn't work :-(

Can someone help me to make this work?

...

You have to put artist image in album folder (\artist\album\artist.jpg), because foobar can't check for a artist image one level above the folder wich contain the played audio-files

dawxxx666 your Foo AVA is spectacular, I'm waiting for your next version.

Btw I was wondering if the window could be stretched to fullscreen (adding a button on the title bar, next to the one that minimizes it, or modifying some code somewhere lol?, but I don't know what).

Waiting for a hand, thanks again.

The best way is to uncheck 'hide titlebar' option in fooAvA's settings window so you'll be able to maximize foobar...

    • Password Safe 3.72.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....

      I agree with both of you... It's absolutely imperative that science is completely based on actual proven facts and hard evidence and is not considered dogmatic in any way. Science is not a religion and it will never be, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
