Thank you for the prompt bugfix, the leak seems to be gone.

Now I have another problem though. I played with the new grey/sunken border and the display is somehow borked. All panels are now off by few pixels to the right and to the bottom. This means, I have now few surplus pixels at the left and top sides of the panels and few missing pixels at the right and bottom sides. (Using W2K SP4.)



I have same problem with winXP SP2

Right Click on your desktop/Properties/Settings/Advanced/Monitor/set screen refresh rate to the highest hertz rate.

(After making sure that you have the "Hide modes that this monitor cannot display" checked.  )

Does this plugin refresh at all? Whenever I add an album to my playlist,  I have to be careful not to click anything in the browser, or else I have to readd the songs. Works the same with deleting albums. I was trying to get rid of an album, so I deleted it off of my hdd and my playlist. I restarted foobar, and it was still there. I ended up having to get rid of it through the album list, then reinstalling the plugin.

Am I missing something, or does automatic refresh need to be there?

That's complete nonsense, the monitor refresh rate doesn't have anything to do with that (unless you are trying to make the image so blurry that you no longer are able to notice this glitch). From what I remember from trying out this component, the problem is that there is a double border. If you set the border type in the preferences to "None", it should be fixed.

Doesn't work for me. But I think it has something to do with the new edge option, too.

Sorry, I thought the user who said he was having the same problem with XP SP2 meant that he was having the problem with XPSP2, instead of with the componant while using XPSP2.

And once, after reformating, all my windows (when maximized) looked like the "few missing pixels" picture.

Offset pixels are fixed if i set border to "none" or "gray" but than it's off-style with the rest of the borders.

allow multiple tags (use "tag" for multitag, "%tag%" for comma delimted version)


I don't understand what is meant by "the comma delimited version."

I'm trying to find a way to parse my %styles% tag which can contains values such as  "idm,downtempo,electronic". Is this related to the "comma delimited version"?

What about a text box in every browser panel to filter the entries? I think it would be great!

why not some kind of quickfilter without a search box, you justt click the panel, type in your search, and it filters, then hit backspace to clear or something like that, would use less space.. just an idea, I don't really need this anyway.

I plan to add a browser filter toolbox at some point that acts similiar to the filter from the browser in the old playlist tree... One filter box will filter all the panels, and will use the playlist gen format for advanced filtering...

Another suggestion:  The ability to bind middle click mouse button to add files to the playlist queue like you can do in playlist tree.

is there any way i can get it to stop updating the database every x mins? it gets really annoying seeing something flashing every now and again, especially as it happens when foobars minimised

Hi cwbowron,
I love foo_browser, and it's the only feature in fb2k I ever missed when I made the switch from horrible Winamp a few months back. But I would like to address a few things which bother me.

foo_browser - ugly.png - Please fix this. It's bothering me quite a lot. I hope that you agree.
As an example, I suggest looking at the playlist selector I have to the left of the browser plugin. It's perfect.

Also, please think about implementing the right-click menu options available in the album list. At least the "Send to playlist" / "Add to playlist" / "Send to new playlist" options. The current way of doing things is to assign "doubleclick" to "Utils/Send to playlist...", but the extra window which pops up, heavily distrupts my workflow.
I read somewhere in this thread that you would only do this if you ever made a component which could do this globally - Please dont. foo_browser is about to become one of the absolute must-have components for foobar2000, and I hope you'll treat it accordingly.
Pusk is the new Start.

You should check out foosion's foo_utils which adds Add to playlists, Insert into playlists, Send to playlists under edit in the context menu.  I dont have the link handy but its pretty easy to find.

You could also install my foo_playlist_tree component which adds "Add to active playlist", "Send to active playlist" and "new playlist" in the context menu under "Playlist Tree".  These options would be available even if you do not use the playlist tree panel itself.

Line-height for items in the panel would be cool.

Bug Fixes

Two bugs:

1.  If you switch the edge type, the browser windows do not automatically update (actually, if you have the hide horizontal scroll bar checked, it will show it).  Once you refresh the browser windows, the scroll bar goes away, but the edge style does not change.

In order to change the edge style, you need to make an update to the Columns UI layout (I just changed one of my browser panels to a different orientation and then back and it updated the edges).

Basically what I am trying to say is that when you change the edge style in your preferences, it should update the browser panels right away.

2. There are issues with sorting some albums.  The sort for my playlist is set to:
[%album artist%]
ب[%album%]
ب[%discnumber%]
ب$num(%tracknumber%,3)
ب%_path_raw%

There are a number of albums that sort correctly in other playlists, but are not correct in the browser playlist.  I have all my sort criteria set to * (the default).

If you need specific examples of what is not sorted correctly, please PM me and let me know what you need.

By the way, I just downloaded the new DLL from today, so these are bugs in the current version.

Thanks for the great plugin!

I'm not sure if I'm just too stupid but when I try to add a Browser panel to the vertical splitter there is none. The only panel I can see is the playlist switcher.


Edit: Ah ok might be connected to the fact that I installed the new ColumnUI 0.1.3 beta 1 and that requires the panels to be recompiled with the new SDK.

Thanks cwbowron.

Edit: cwbowron the archive still contains the old version. When can we expect the new version to be available on the wiki?

Nevermind it was probably FF taking the file from the cache instead of redownloading it.

is there any way for foobar to remember what foo_browser items were selected (and playlist open) upon close and open?
