A few users have asked me to explain how did I create this (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=58574&view=findpost&p=670832) theme. I uploaded the .fth theme along with the icons (which I downloaded from this subforum, but I'm too lazy to find where).
The necessary components along with foobar2000 1.0 beta (http://www.foobar2000.org/) are:
- foo_uie_biography (http://foo2k.chottu.net/) (need to enable the execute query even if no panel exists and provide artwork to other artwork viewers)
- foo_textdisplay (http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_textdisplay)
- foo_run (http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_run) (only for wikipedia icon)
- foo_lyricsdb (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=36598) (only for grabbing lyrics)

Hey,
very nice config.
The hint how to use Biography view in DUI is very useful for me. Actually I use CUI, but played a little bit with the DUI besides. And I like it more and more. But I ever asked me how I can get the biography-thing to work. Thank you for this.

I like this quite a bit... for some reason, though, I can't get the right or left column to change size... any reason you can see for this? I tried it in editing mode, etc. Also, the ratings don't seem to be working when I click the button.
Maybe the splitters are locked.
Go into layout editing mode to change.

for the rating to work correctly, you need to setup the masstagger scripts (foo_masstag)
I have my scripts saved like this in the masstagger:
RATE 1 Set "RATING" 1
RATE 2 Set "RATING" 2
RATE 3 Set "RATING" 3
RATE 4 Set "RATING" 4
RATE 5 Set "RATING" 5
RATE 0 Set "RATING" 0
what font are you using, and where do i setup the masstagger script?
cheers bro.
wicked theme!
ok, i figured the script out. but i can't get stars. just gettin blank squares. so what's the font you are usin on the playlist?
cheers
I use Segoe UI, but it works only under Windows Vista or Windows 7.
I couldn't get it to work on Windows XP. However, I managed to get other symbols (like hearts) to appear with Arial Unicode MS on my old system and $char() function. I can't remember what the character code was, though.
got it to work on XP,
u gotta install the east asian language support as described in this post (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=66155).
cheers anyway bro
always gettin' "Similar artists to As I Lay Dying are ?..." and no biography, no similar artists. what's the problem?
Hi,
you have to tick "Execute query even if no biography view panels exist" and "Provide title format fields (e.g. %lastfm_bio%)" in the preferences under "Biography server" - "Misc".

tnx. works perfect
thanks a bunch, i love the theme. is there any way i can set Biography View to search the chosen source for only an artist image rather than both the artist and album cover image?
thanks jeremija
