hello Br3tt!

first thing first! man Ibiza is just OMG great! wonderful!

but i have some issues with covers...

i have most of them in my specified folder on hd (G:\foo\covers\%artist% - %album%.jpg)

some are in albums folders like folder.jpg and those are working...

i've tried to solve this by myself but i can't make it working!

$if($findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)),
	$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)/folder.jpg)
,
	$puts(cover.path,./images/ibiza/cover/nocover.png)

				$puts(cover.path,'G:\foo\covers\'%artist%' - '%album%'.jpg')
)

this is from playlist and works fine! both!

the problem is here:

$draw_image(25,48,$eval(%gb_width%-41),$eval(%gb_width%-41),'./images/ibiza/cover/nocover.png',255,nokeepaspect)
$draw_image(25,48,$eval(%gb_width%-41),$eval(%gb_width%-41),$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg),255,nokeepaspect)

and here:

$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)/folder.jpg)
$puts(artist.path,Z:\_artists_\%artist%.jpg)

i don't know how and where i have to put my covers path...

i've tried to make it like in playlist but it doesn't work...

Hi Br3tt, your config rocks :punk: but i've experienced some troubles on how to show @ window titlebar the name/time of the song played, dunno why but since last update it shows nothing...got you any idea why? Thanks!

Goto Preferences --> Display --> ColumnsUI --> Main-Tab

there is a field captioned: "Main window title format script:"

Currently there is:

//This is the default script for the title of the main window during playback.

//%artist% - %title% - %_time_elapsed% / %length%

Remove the "//" in the second line or if the field is empty, enter the second line there (obviously without the "//" in front of %artist%)

Regards

Thanks so much for your fast reply MiDiAN, it worked flawlessly :yes:

Hi Br3tt.

I used your new release for a while last night and it looks great. I've got one question though. The alphabet that is listed at the top of screen, can you use to chaange the playlist position without changing the song? The only way I could get it to work was to double click which starts playing songs from the chosen letter. Ideally I'd like to single click, be taken to the letter, then choose a song.

I've probably missed something though :p

just right-click on the alphabet (it is a graphical browser panel) --> settings, and modify action for single click from 'none' to default' !!!

i have disable it because it lags a lot on large playlists !!! so take care :)

When I import the fcl file, it says

"The layout import was aborted because the following required panels are not installed.

Name:Track info

GUID:44E5327B-92FF-4BD7-81BD-0365B921D461"

The dll file foo_uie_trackinfo_mod is in the components folder.

Are you sure you have the correct version of the dll?

Hi:

I've and tried a lot of things, but can't get the covers working...

first..i was using panels ui, so i need to know if dynamic location of the art is supported with this config.

For example, with my previous config in panels, i loaded dynamically the art location in the coverPath variable, like this:

$puts(coverPath,$if3(
 $if($fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,front.jpg)),$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,front.jpg)),
 $if($fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)),$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)),
 $if($fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg)),$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg)),
 $if($fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.bmp)),$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.bmp))))

i've tried the same idea here (with the obvious adjustments), but it won't work. Also i noticed that the cover.path variable is defined in two places( and experimented with both):

- In the Splitter settings shown in the picture of the first post (first line):

$puts(cover.path,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)folder.jpg)

- In the code one gets by secondary clicking>settings, right on the playlist(about the 18th line):

$if($stricmp('FOO_LASTFM',$left(%path%,10)),
	$puts(cover.path,./images/ibiza/cover/nocoverlastfm2.png)
,
$if($fileexists($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)),
	$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)/folder.jpg)

   ,
	$puts(cover.path,./images/ibiza/cover/nocover.png)
   )

)

Any advice?

    • I am not a fan of haptic feedback touchpads. I've owned a Surface Laptop 7 (Snapdragon) with one and a Lenovo Slim (Intel), and I hated both to the point where I purchased different laptops. It's not that they don't work most of the time; it's that they don't work 100% of the time, and there is no advantage from a user's perspective over a good mechanical trackpad like what's on a ThinkPad X1 or a Yoga 9i. I do not believe that I'll buy another haptic feedback touchpad laptop again in the near future.
    • Works fine here too. About this build, I don't like to download any kind of Windows, from any site except Microsoft. The mod might work, but I don't know what it's inside. Can contain malware, backdoors... Long time ago I've used something like this but reversed - it was 98se with the look and some functionality  of XP. Or, later XP with Vista look. But I made it myself. Not downloaded from obscure sites.
    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Rockstar is preparing to launch Grand Theft Auto VI later this year, but ahead of that, the company has revealed a new offer for some Grand Theft Auto V owners. It today announced that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version owners of the 2013-released title will soon be receiving a free upgrade to the current generation version. The studio released the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V back in 2022, bringing significant upgrades to the original console editions. This included 60 FPS gameplay at up to 4K resolution, as well as major upgrades to textures, draw distance, and audio. Faster load times, ray tracing elements, and HDR support were also added with it. While this new and enhanced version needed a new purchase of the game to jump in, now Rockstar has decided to make it a free upgrade, dropping the $40 price tag entirely on consoles. "Beginning tomorrow, those who own any PS4 version or the digital Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto V will be able to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions at no additional cost, and experience the best versions of GTA V and GTA Online," said the company in an official blog post. The free upgrade offer will be released tomorrow, June 18, for all Xbox One and PlayStation 4 owners of Grand Theft Auto V. Players who will be jumping in on the offer will want to check how to migrate their GTA Online profile from last-generation to current-generation consoles by heading over here. The offer lands ahead of The Kortz Center Heist hitting Grand Theft Auto Online, where players and crews will be tasked with stealing priceless international art from a prestigious gallery in Pacific Bluffs. It doesn't look like Rockstar plans to stop updating its previous game even with Grand Theft Auto VI being on the horizon. The latest title is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
