I'm using foo_ui_columns 0.3.8.4, and I have found changing only the case of a tag field's value will not refresh the changed tag field value that is displayed in the NG playlist group heading.
OK, I'll fix this for one of the next versions. (Grouping was case-insensitive, I'll just make it case-sensitive).

I thought that it would be because it was in a splitter with three filters, but even thought I put it in a separate vertical splitter with just one filter, it still searches all of them.
Yes, it searches the lot at the moment.. I'll have a look at restricting it to things in the same splitter.

For an unknown reason, it seems to have created one "Column UI" entry every time I swapped column ui's version. Here is a screen :
Looks like you have multiple CUI DLLs installed.

Enter works only if filters are visible in layout
I'll fix that, thanks (but you might not notice if something is selected in the Filters).
Making clear button optional would save some toolbar space
Something told me that was coming..

For your Playlist 1: Try EsPlaylist. It can be set to follow the currently playing playlist. (You might want to set the grouping to none).

Only using tag attributes. It doesn't automatically re-host and shrink the images for you, so large images will still take longer to download.

Does anyone know the command for getting detailed Information to the Codec? MP3 is to less, i need things like VBR2 CBR and so on just like in the Original Theme

You dont understand: I dont want it to show the currently playing playlist, i want it to show the playback queue!

e.g. I search in the library some songs and add them by right click "add to playback queue" ant want to see there what is playd next! I can also get to Playlist 1 select some from there and Playlist 2, select some from there and so on. I dont find any Playlist view which shows me the Playback Queue

Questions:  Can one add an image file to serve as a background to a columns playlist?  I have the newest version of foobar and newest version Columns Ui.  If so, could you provide me with the command syntax.  Also, if you can, can you add different images to serve as a backgrounds for different playlists depending on the name of the playlist.  If so, could you also provide me with the syntax for this script.  Thanks.

But: It displays only MP3 not VBR2 MP3 or CBR MP3



any Playlist view which shows me the Playback Queue

http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=73648


This Plugin is better then nothing, but i cant believe that there isnt a good plugin out? Its bad enough that this istn included in foobar.

The Problem with this Plugin is that the entries get deleted. But the Problem on the whole thing is: I want to have 2 Playlists at once: 1 library view and 1 playback queue or any other playlist. I want to drag it from the library to my currently playing playlist. And want to see where i put it in (as next song and so on) Sry that im annoying, but i really cant believe that this isnt possible and i tried for hours yesterday :-(

%codec_profile% should do the trick.

Many people want that... 
Look for any Library Viewer which suits you or try the es_playlist solution.

I think i have to wait till something comes from the foobar developers themselves.

Is there any to-do/wishlist for foobar? Would be a great idea, especially because every user of it is a perfectionist ^^


Columns UI

Gapkiller! Thank you! Thank you for your Link to Facets!

Im pretty near to my ideal foobar!!

Here a Pic:



As a perfectionist i got some Points to make better ;-)

1. Facets does not work with the Columns UI :-(
2. The Album Art Viewer only shows the current selection in the small playlist bottom-right or the currently playing track. Would be better if he also shows the album Art of the selected song in Facets.
3. To rate in the official Rating plug-in i have to right-click/playback statistics/rating/*click*. Would be better if i can only click on the star and it would work ^^ (Like in WMP)
4. Album Art in the Media Library just like the NG Playlist from Columns UI would be nice ^^

-----

I want to try some more with Columns UI but dont want to destroy my layout ^^ Can foobar save the layout somehow?


Columns UI

Reply #5967
you're welcome

1.) But Filters do...
2.) not possible...(maybe yet but i don't think so)
3.) You can bind buttons to rate.
4.)Es_playlist is compatible with Dui and does that

Default User Interface: Export Theme

1. Jeah the Problem is, the Filters dont show Tracks, only Genre, Artist, Album. To show the Tracks they have to be sent to a playlist, and foobar can only handle 1 Playlist or on both Playlist is the same... Would be ideal if i can create a Filter which shows Tracks and nothing sent to play-list, just like Facets does but Problem 2 would stay.

3. I know but still not as comfortable like just clicking on it hope something like this is in development.

4. Es_playlist is a playlist and not a Media Library and in this case 1 need at least 2 Playlists which are both open all the time and dont effect each other and that isnt possible.

_____________

Dont know why but 2. is now working with Facets, man i am so happy i would like to donate something to foobar!

1. Go to columns UI -> filter tab in preferences and add a new field with %title% in it. Now right-click on the header of a filter panel and click title (or whatever name you gave the field)

3. WSH panel mod can do this for you. In fact, a script is in the samples provided by marc2003

4. Why don't you try something before you argue against it? Es_playlist has a library view mode, try it.

Columns UI

1.) right click filter column header and select "track".
you can show everything you want via columns ui filter tab.

2.) Haven't used it for some time so if this is true...yeah nice 

3.) ??? clicking on a toolbar button isn't comfortable enough?

4.) This is leading nowhere, trust me 
just try different work flows and you will find a workaround for yourself...
BTW es_playlist can function as a library viewer just like in this config:

http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....st&p=695693

You can also have es_playlist above ng playlist...a nice combo imho.
Yeah this does not do exactly what you want but as I said try different combinations
and you will find one that maybe... will fit your needs.

I having what I think is a very easy scripting problem that worked fine in previous versions, but is not working now, and I cannot figure out why.  I am using playback statistics custom which stores data in the tags %last_played% and %play_counter%.  I am using a columns playlist with a column for each tag with following display scripts: 1) $if(%last_played%,%last_played%,N/A); and 2) $if(%play_counter%,%play_counter%,0).  The appropriate data is displayed in each column when the respective tags are present.  However, I get the "?" when the tags are not present and not the desired "N/A"" for the %last_played% column and the desired "0" for the %play_counter% column  when the tags are not present. 

The weird thing is that this script is working fine for my other columns, such as the column for the %rating% tag which contains a number of 1 to 5.  For my %rating% column, I use the script: $if(%rating%,%rating%,N/A).  With this script, I get a number in my %rating% column if the tag is present, and a N/A if it is not.  I recently had my laptop stolen and have had to re-setup my foobar.  It has been a while since I have had to fiddle with foobar so I am a bit rusty and could really use some help here.  Thanks so much.

1. Ah right, thx! Would have the same effect bot without showing the artwork for selcted :-(

3. Dont work with Facets or Columns UI NG Playlist or is it? I just read the INFO but it don't look like.

4. I'll try it ;-)

1. Just like to keesface, is working but not with album arts :-(

3. Problem is, that i've to select track first and then give him some rating, instead of just clicking on the stars ;-) But thx for the tip, i'll try to make some buttons ^^

4. es_playlist above ng Playlist? Don't they show the same?

I would very much like to have something similar. I've learned to completely avoid using the playback queue as it's treated as second-class citizen.

Here is my new setup:

You'll have to put the wsh panel outside of your panel, so yeah it'll only work for the now playing song. It's not possible to make buttons in a playlist. If it's ever going to be possible, it'll probably in esplaylist or elplaylist.
