[Foobar] Foo AvA by dawxxx666

[Drakk]

I have a problem is not the cover in Foobar2000 and I have the folder named the image file folder.

[Draconian Guppy]

I just use the simple/default foobar (minimized though) with some nice CDArt Display skin. :D

+1 It used to be a hassle to get everything the way it looked on the authors page, so I just kept foobars default skin :)

[Drakk]

I finally turn on Chronflow, but I want the images are small and the main big. as seen in this picture.

I configure it?

greetings

I don't know if this Chronflow-Script comes with FooAVA, but you could use the one included in Reflex by Br3tt:

In the zipfile, you'll find a file called:

Reflex-chronflow-script_to_paste_in_chronflow_settings.txt

Which you need to setup in Preferences --> Display --> Chronflow --> Cover Display.

Afterwards hit "Compile/Apply".

First of all, excuse my spelling mistakes (if there are any :| ... I'm from Austria :) ).

I've been using fooAvA since a long time, and it works really great, but now I've got a question:

I'd like to have a fully transparent background, so that i can see my Windows Desktop. Disabling the background mode only gives my foobar a black background.

This would be really great, because I'm using two monitors, and foobar always runs on the left one.

Since now, i always had to make an extra background (cutting the dual-screen wallpaper in two halfes) image for foobar, to use dual-screen wallpapers.

I've added two screenshots, to make my problem clearer.

i finally decided to install W7 and try foobar2000. This mod is just too awesome. It works perfect, great job on the work you did for this.

AFAIK, a fully transparent background only works in Win Vista.

Thanks a lot. I'm really glad you appreciate my work.

As a half-solution you can try a small program named glass2k.

It can make any window transparent. (So not only the background of the window - thats because half-solution)

Hi all!

This is my PanelsUI config, which is based strongly on dawxxx666's fooAvA. I've made some modifications to it...

Tell me what you think about it.

It's name is AvAorange++

You can download it at this page: http://emoryy.deviantart.com/art/AvAorange-1-1-119924358

Wow, nice config! I really like it.

One Question: Is there a way, to make the Playlist-Column smaller, so that the Album Art gets bigger?

Thank you!

And yes!

One of the new features compared to FooAvA 1.05, is the ability to change the panels width ratio.

In the titlebar next to the minimize button is the ratio set button.

If you need to modify the window height too, you can save the new window size in AvAorange++'s settings panel \ bground.

im using w7 n fooava 1.05

but something weird happen,everytime i exit foobar,the foobar size will revert to the default setting

i mean the player size will shrink to its default size,eventho i already largen it before

dunno whether its win7 problem,foobar component problem or something else

anybody else have this problem ?

hope a 'guru' will lead me out from this :D

[dawxxx666]

I don't know if it works in w7 but try disabling UAC, then run foobar2000 as administrator.

[bug_vengeance]

thx dawxxx :)

i didnt disabled the UAC

but instead i run as admin

n change the 'permission' setting for foobar2k folder

i use winxp before,so im not quite familiar with these 'user/group' thingy in vista n w7

lulz

so far the fooava is working just like how i want it to be :)

[SMELTN]

so after reading over the "good replacement for WMP in Windows 7" post, I decided to give foobar a try again, and of course I want dawxxx's config since it is the best out there.

Questions. Is 1.5 the latest version still?

Also is there a place that I can download all the components needed together in a pack instead of having to find each one?

Thanks

[dawxxx666]

Yeap, this is the latest version. All components are included in my fooAvA installer, you can get it here: http://dawxxx666.foobar2000.pl/fooava/

I'm currently working on the new version for ColumnsUI and PSS, but it'll take a while...

[SMELTN]

awesome thanks dawxxx.

Whats so different with the new ColumnsUI and PSS that require you to make an entirely new version? I have no idea about foobar lol.

[SMELTN]

I have another question. Is there an addon to foobar where it will show the tooltip pop up in the corner on song change? Like a toaster popup or whatever?

[dawxxx666]

Yes, e.g: http://www.maroonspoon.com/foo_prettypop/

ColumnsUI and PSS are using different syntax so I have to rewrite some parts of my code.

[SMELTN]

awesome thank you and good luck with the rewrite. You did this one so well, I know you will do great things with the update

[kache]

Sorry, dawx, may i ask if u'll ever make a version of FooAVA compatible with the latest foobar builds?

Because i normally use the WASAPI output to get the best audio quality, but in the latest seven build there have been some changes, so the WASAPI plugin had been updated, but foobar says that it can't use it, because it needs a newer version of foobar itself to use the updated wasapi component.

So I cannot use the wasapi output.

[ToneKnee]

Or would it be possible to release the code to the community?

On the previous page he mentions that he is working on the CUI+PSS version of FooAvA for the latest foobar, but it'll take a while.

(I have also started the rewrite of my config (AvAOrange++), but it'll take a while too)

Ok, understood.

It means I'll just use the DS output, for the moment. :D
