The Favorites menu's entries are no longer sorted automatically with v3.2 (until now: the last invoked search from the Favorites menu became always its first entry).
This is HA. Not the Jerry Springer Show.

Would it be possible to define action for "enter" key (specifically playing the search results)?

I like to keep autosearch very fast but I would expect it to start playing the search results by pressing enter.

Thanks

anyway to do this in the current version? I'm missing this function which is pretty much the goal of autosearching

I can't apply a custom bitmap any size. Somebody help ?

May I request that parameters for a search be allowed from a shortcut?

[blockquote]
Code: [Select]
Like foobar2000.exe /Quicksearch [%title% HAS "After you've gone"]
[/blockquote]

Saving a query formulation (not its results) would be great, too.

I have some lists (jazz standards, lieder & arias) that I like as indexes because I can sort them in multiple ways (chronologically, by composers, etc). I may eventually add interpretations to my music library but I would'n want to maintain those lists with links to each version.

I'm working on a new function that will enable a better management of queries (History & Favorites). It may take some time though.

Hi! I'm trying to install custom themes for foobar2000  but it doesn't let me because I get this error
Code: [Select]
Failed to load DLL: foo_quicksearch.dll
Reason: This component is missing a required dependency, or was made for different version of foobar2000.


I have the latest version of foobar.  windows xp sp2    installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86)  and done almost all I can think of.. and it still doesn't start... can you help me please?

You say nothing of confirming exactly which version of everything. Does it load in a foobar not encumbered by a custom theme?

I have foobar2000 v1.1.7  and I 've put      foo_quicksearch.dll  (v 3.2)  in foobar2000\components  and when I start foobar  it displayed that message

The following may not help, but it is good to minimize variables. The only dll files in foobar2000\components are ones from the standard installer, set upon installation of foobar. All additional components get installed in their own folder within the user-components folder. For example, foo_quickserch.dll goes in a folder named foo_quicksearch and that folder goes in the user-components folder.

This is all done automatically for you if you take advantage of the self install routines built into foobar via the component preference page.

regards

I get the same response

As it installs just fine for others, last suggestion I have is to use preferences>components and delete it. Then, since you have had it located in more than one spot, I would check in the config directory and insure foo_quicksearch.cfg is gone also. Download the ms file again to hedge your bet that it installed correctly and reinstall it along with quicksearch. Install quicksearch via foobars component page.

good luck

Damn it... it still doesn't want to load..  if only it said exactly what's missing.. :|    Do you know what else I could try?  I did reinstall foobar.. and made everything step by step..  but nothing.

oo BTW!  Foo_quicksearch  has only  foo_quicksearch.dll  right?

The exact configuration file's name you have to look for is "foo_quicksearch.dll.cfg"

Although otherwise mentioned in the first post of this thread,  the latest version of foo_quicksearch doesn't require the VC 2010 redistributable package to be installed anymore.

But it utilizes the Windows Imaging Component which is included in Windows XP SP3 or higher and in .NET 3.0.

@Valahul: It would be a good opportunitiy for you to upgrade your system to WinXP SP3, which is highly recommended anyway.

The WIC can also be downloaded here separately.

Again..  thank you all for your help!

You don't need to install another windows. It would be sufficient to install SP3 for your WinXP.

A Service Pack is just an update, it will not reinstall whole Windows XP again.
If your motherboard supports it, you can try change from AHCI to IDE in BIOS settings to run without SATA drivers.
Windows 10 Pro x64 // foobar2000 1.3.10

Hi,
  This is a handy component, but I am having one problem with it: I cannot horizontally resize my Foobar window beyond some fixed width when the QuickSearch toolbar is present. Normally I use a very wide Foobar window to accomodate playlist columns so this is a bit of a nuisance. Is there something I need to change in the configuration? Otherwise, can this be fixed?  Thanks

I'm using version 3.2 with Foobar 1.1.7 on Win 7 Pro SP1 64bit with .NET 3.5 installed.

Are you sure you have not inadvertently locked a splitter?

I don't think so. I have the Quicksearch toolbar contained in the top portion of a Toolbar Header container which is bottom docked and stretches across the full bottom portion of the window. The Toolbar Header is itself in a top/bottom splitter but not a left/right one and is not otherwise locked. If I remove the Quicksearch component from the Toolbar Header, then I can once again resize the window horizontally without restriction.  If I add the Quicksearch component while the window width is already wider than the fixed limit, the window will automatically shrink horizontally down to the fixed smaller width.

Hi ~NEMO,
Thanks for your component, I've been using it a long time; it's indispensable +++++

Because I've been using it so long I have developed some intimacies about its features...

I use FB2K with "Columns UI" and your "Quick Search" component sits exactly above my CUI "NG Playlist" viewer.
I have my CUI "NG Playlist" viewer sorting the columns by this syntax scheme --> $info(encoding),lossless $swapprefix(%album artist%) %path_sort%

If I conduct a search using Quick Search(Standard Tagz Strings), and I search for a name such as Johann or Strauss
then "NG Playlist" viewer will populate with album groups containing all tracks from the album, i.e. the complete album, which is what I want to see.

If I conduct a search using Quick Search(Standard Tagz Strings), and I search for a name such as Blue or Blue Danube
then "NG Playlist" viewer will populate with album groups containing a track or some tracks from the album, i.e. part of the album, which is NOT what I want to see.

In the example I just gave you, I wanted your component to always output the complete album that matches my query, but it doesn't.
I wish I could configure your component with a custom preference (like in my "NG Playlist" columns sort field).

It frustrates me.

One more thing...
I like to conduct my "Autosearch" Quick Searches re-using the same playlist every time,
i.e. if I search for Strauss, then I get a playlist named Quick Search ... [Strauss]
and if I search for blue danube, then I get the same playlist renamed to Quick Search ... [blue danube]

Occasionally, I like the "Autosearch" playlist enough to want to keep it permanently, but if I try to rename this "Autosearch" playlist, it will not accept being renamed !
I can only get this to work if I remember to click on the magnifying glass and also check "New Playlist" (with checked "Autosearch").

This is also frustrating.


Thanks for reading.

Don't use the "Standard" Tagz String then, use Album, or anything mapped to %album%

Untick "Append search string to playlist name" in the preferences.
