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...

      Even though MS had to sunset the Windows Subsystem for Android, you can apparently use BlueStacks to run Android in Windows now. I haven't tested this yet, so if anyone has any feedback, I'd love to hear it.
