Right-click on the column headers, choose Columns, Playing.

No, it's neither possible nor planned to add images by means of title formatting.

It's easier to do good things with 0.9.5 than with scpl or panelsui, I suppose that it will not be better than them but the new gui is awesome.

Also, the playlist doesnt seem to follow what's playing.

Make sure to enable Playback, Cursor Follows Playback.

Thanks for info Frank. I looked all over the preferences and right clicking on the playlist but I didn't check the main dropdown menu. I also got the no cover image worked out. I can only hope that the album art filenaming will become more flexible in the future. I prefer to use descriptive filenames for the art instead of generic "folder.*, cover,*, etc" and the thread you directed me to indicates that I am not the only one.

I don't think it goes at all well and means the UI has too much contrast. Each to their own though. The best ones I see are ones that integrate well with the visual style. But that requires having a decent visual style.

Thread needs more compact layouts with a dark theme which actually match windows style


I kind of like that one.  I like minimalist GUIs.

After all, computers are used for many things.  Why waste your entire screen on something as trivial as music playback?

I'm trying to shrink my own layout as much as I can.  It is proving challenging with the new GUI, though.
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Lyx on 2007-10-30 01:31:01
@Laemtao:

Well new DUI does to some extend already provide quite a few ways to create compact layouts. Besides of a "compact menu", the only other way i can think off which would allow to pack more features into given space, or reduce space used by current features, would be something like "autohide-containers". So, for example hiding everything except of the playlist, and then creating some hotspot at the window edge which would slide out a container with more elements. But besides of that, i cannot think of other ways to shrink down layouts even more - at least not without significant disadvantages.

Indeed!

The new UI makes it very easy to create a decent layout. I copied shakey_snakes layout because it looks almost like the layout i had with columns ui (so no need to post it again). Now i only need a trackinfo panel. But don't want to use foo_dockable_panels...

I'm using XP, the visual style is Royale Vista II by dobee (http://dobee.deviantart.com/art/Royale-Vista-II-Final-55318441), I apply the visual style and shadow effect with Styler (there's a download link for styler on the visual style's page)

Note: the shadow effect is a little resource hungry, especially when you have lots of windows open at once.

Hi everyone,

I have some questions related to the new 0.9.5, DefaultUI and Facets. So rather than opening a new topic I figured that maybe people here could answer me :

1/ Is there a way with 0.9.5 to get the Playlist View display the rating information column, with one to five stars per song ?
2/ Even better, is there a way to change the rating directly on the PlayList view ? (like in YouTube - hovering mouse over the stars changes rating, clicking enters rating - that would be awesome  ).
3/ Is there a way to replace the cursor icon in the seekbar with another icon ? (not in the prefs but by changing files for instance)
4/ Is there some kind of "peak-meter plugin" that would be somewhat customizable ?
5/ (sorry for this one) what's the difference between "random" and "shuffle" ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

I have some questions related to the new 0.9.5, DefaultUI and Facets.


I use:

Code: [Select]
$repeat($char(9733),%rating%)


for Rating "stars" in the Playlist view

or

Code: [Select]
$repeat($char(9733),%rating%)$repeat($char(9734),$sub(5,%rating%))


for filled/empty stars


I use the Quick Tagger to rate songs (context menu and/or keyboard shorcuts)

There is a Peak Meter component you can run in a Dockable panel

Random is random, shuffle works off of a set pattern.

Post by: Jose Hidalgo on 2007-11-13 14:50:32
Thanks nightfishing for all this useful information !

Regarding rating, I have entered your code (the second one) in Prefs > Playlist View > Rating, but I can't see any stars. I only see 5 small symbols, like unknown characters. I'm using all default foobar 0.9.5 fonts. Do I have to change something ? Thanks.

As for the quick tagger, it seems to work, but I have two questions :
- Can we have also the ratings displayed as stars rather than "1; 2; 3; 4; 5" ?
- Is it possible to access the ratings directly and not via a sub-menu "Tagging > Quick Tagger > Set <Rating> to" ? That would be great.

Thanks again, I'm making progress here !

Stars are dependent on the font (some have stars, some do not.) I use Arial Unicode which can be found with a little Googling.

The Rating tag needs to use numbers (1,2,3 etc). The tag then can be displayed graphically (with stars, hearts etc).

The quick tagger context menu is a bit "deep" for my liking, also, but I do not know any way around it. You can use keyboard shorcuts (I use shift+F3, shift+F4, shift+F5 etc).
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Jose Hidalgo on 2007-11-13 18:32:28
Yep, I got Arial Unicode and it works. Thanks again nightfishing.

The side effect is that Arial Unicode displays text lines with more spacing than the default foobar font. And my screen is a small one...  so I have to reduce font size to 8, and at size 8 I can barely see the stars with Arial Unicode !  Who knows, maybe there's a topic somewhere listing the best "rating-compatible" fonts ?

Besides, why stars after all ? I've seen a very nice interface with just colored dots, plain and simple  So I'd like to understand the basics in order to find the code for given character out of a given font and display it as rating. For example, I understand that 9733 means "full star" and 9734 means "empty star", but how do you find these codes ? (the best would be some "font display software" that would give these codes directly, but does such software exist ?).

Oh, and an important question : how do you get that nice anti-aliasing all over your foobar ???  Is it Vista, or can you achieve the same thing with XP ? (no, I won't jump over to Vista just to get some fancy anti-aliasing even if it looks good  ).

Thanks.
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: nightfishing on 2007-11-13 21:15:45
I ***think***
($char(9679)

is dots for "normal" Windows fonts.

I used dots with Columns UI where you could add color info into the string. (I don't believe that is possible with the Default UI).

I run XP, so the anti-aliasing is not a Vista-thing.

I do run Clear-Type, but other than that it is a default XP setup.
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Jose Hidalgo on 2007-11-13 23:14:54
ClearType ? I didn't even know about it !  Now I've downloaded it and it just works. Isn't life beautiful ?

This is my current config with ClearType (work in progress) :

[a href="http://img213.imageshack.us/my.php?image=myfoobar01kg3.jpg" target="_blank"] ) :

Code: [Select]
$repeat($char(9608)  ,%rating%)$repeat($char(9480)  ,$sub(5,%rating%))


Another solution would be to have different colors between "full" and "empty" characters. But it seems that it's no more possible with the new Default UI ?

Download a component called Quick Tagger and put it in your components folder.

Then start foobar, right-click on a track and you'll see "Quick Tagger" in the context menu.

You can also customize it to some extent via foobar preferences.

Thanks, that string code was what I was looking for. I have no idea how to make these from scratch but I have some understanding how to modify them, so I modified it:

%date% | %album% $ifgreater(%discnumber%,00, '('Disc %discnumber%')' ,)

Now it's exactly how I wanted it.
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Frank Bicking on 2007-11-15 15:58:06
$ifgreater(%discnumber%,00, '('Disc %discnumber%')' ,)

Unless you explicitly tag some files with Disc Number = "0" or "00", you can shorten this part to:

[ Disc '('%discnumber%')']

Yup, that was unnecessarily complicated. I asked this same thing on another forum and got this much simpler:

$if(%discnumber%,'('Disc %discnumber%')',)

Now I just want to remove those unnecessary numbers from the track number column (see my previous post with the pic, updated now). Anyone knows how?
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: start78 on 2007-11-15 18:05:05
As far as i know:

$if($meta(discnumber),'(Disc '%discnumber%')',) =
['(Disc '%discnumber%')']

Would  $if2('(Disc '%discnumber%')',)  work the same way?

Btw: i got used to put all plain text in quotes because i think it's more strict. Or do i only have to put qoutes around brackets so they won't be confused with string brackets?

The custom buttons ara made with columns ui and dockable panels (i think). Look at the border around the button segment. It is not really included in the default ui layout.

I got that disc thing already solved. Or was that about that...? Now I just want to get rid of these (http://torttu.net/temp/foobar_prob1.jpg) numbers.


With the first 4 lines i just wanted to show you that there are different ways to show the same result. You said you don't know how to make these things from scratch. Maybe that could help you to understand how it works.

The "$if2"-thing and the question about where to put the quotes was something i wanted to know. Nothing to do with you.
But if someone wants to know: it does the same thing as the other three lines.

How to get rid of the discnumbers in tracknumber columns:
Did you try creating a custom column "Track" = [%tracknumber%]?

Apostrophs are only required around characters with a special meaning in the titleformat syntax:

%, $, (, ), [, ], commas inside of functions, and the apostroph itself - use '' to display one.

You can add a toolbar above or below any UI element.

Enable the layout editing mode, right-click on an element, choose "Replace", and select "Toolbar Header".

Now right-click on the new toolbar to customize it.

Am I missing something or is it just like that?

Hi smok3, can you please give the font and special $char codes you've used for the top of your foobar window ? (between 3:14 and fb2k). In fact a copy/paste of the code would be best. Thanks.

Another question for everybody : here's my current config (work in progress, so don't pay much attention to it). Notice the 20 small filled / empty dots in the status bar (lower part of the window, between "1:37" and "-2:32". I don't understand why they aren't vertically aligned with the rest of the line (they are too low, I'd want them to be centered). Can you guys help me out ?

That's most likely how those characters are positioned within the font itself. The solution would be to pick new hollow/filled characters or pick a new font.
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Jose Hidalgo on 2007-12-02 21:38:33
Yes, that's what I thought, but when I look at the Windows character table (Start > Programs > Accessories > System utilities), these circles (hex codes 25CC and 25CF from Arial Unicode) are perfectly centered vertically. Same thing if I copy/paste them into Wordpad. So there must be a problem somewhere within foobar.

I have seen screens from people @ HA Forums with the same circles correctly positioned. So I guess there must be a solution (either there are other working $char codes, or something else). Thanks in advance for your help.

EDIT : I've found it - it's just a matter of which font you select under foobar for the status bar. Some fonts display the circles centered, others display the circles down. That's all.

EDIT2 : I've even managed to create a small piece of code that displays a progress bar, but unlike other progress bars,
this one gives the impression to progress on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Try it out and let me know what you think (it's one of my first attempts, but I'm pretty happy with it  ).

Simply copy/paste this into Prefs > Default UI > Status Bar (in only ONE LINE, without carriage returns) :
Code: [Select]
%codec%' ('%bitrate% kbps')'   -   %samplerate% Hz %channels%'   ¤   '%playback_time%'   '$puts(a,20)$repeat($char(9608)' ',$put(b,$div($mul(%playback_time_seconds%,$get(a)),%length_seconds%)))$ifgreater(%length_seconds%,%playback_time_seconds%,$char($sub(9615,$div($mul($sub( $div($mul(%playback_time_seconds%,$mul($get(a),10)),%length_seconds%),$mul($get(b),10)),8),10)))' ',)$repeat($char(9480)' ',$sub($sub($get(a),1),$get(b)))'  '-%playback_time_remaining%

(http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/5149/foobarjoseprogressbar01ds1.jpg)

You can replace the "20" in "$puts(a,20)" with the total number of characters you want in the progress bar (34 is the limit for me).
Of course it requires an Unicode font like Arial Unicode for instance : Prefs > Default UI > Colors and Fonts > Status Bar.

Notes:

VBR display is set to 0.
Status bar and Windows Title bar is a complete re-written custom format code which displays usefull info.
Mouse wheel focus is switched on.
ID3 Tag compat mode is switched on.
Foobar my ask to remove some settings for missing plugins but can click keep or remove but that should not be a major problem but make sure the Facet plugin is installed.

I also used Dockable Panels to extend DefaultUI, but had very bad experiences... Bugs, slowdowns, panels not sticking well enough, etc. And some panels (eg. the most important for me, Track Display, that has no alternative in Default ui) won't work at all/crash instantly. The developer, cwbowron is sadly not responsive, and I don't know if he develops the component anymore.

I think the problem is not the dark background. For my taste it's the collision of pitch black backgrounds and very bright borders/fonts. Some elements look somewhat out of place because of this. Maybe it could use a bit less contrast for more harmony. But it's only my opinion, of course

Foobar2000 on ubuntu would be pretty awesome.

Although I'm sure if you spent some time you could get a more efficient music playing and organising solution with MPD and some real-deal tagging scripts, not to mention the benefits of things being stored on a server. And then you could even have a network'd UI by exporting X to a client on your PC, negating all performance benefits anyway
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Jose Hidalgo on 2007-12-30 14:49:04
FYI I have chosen a different approach, by having a very simple Debian-based file server (command-based, no GUI) for all the storage (audio and video), and then a XP-based client with foobar / MPC / etc.. The server acts simply as a network drive for the client.

With a direct Gigabit link between the two PCs, performance is not an issue, even for Full HD videos.

Which color scheme do you guys use for the spectrum visualization?
There are lots of options, like making gradients of different colors.
Playing with the color choices, I came with this one:
(http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/4484/bluemd1.th.png) (http://img233.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bluemd1.png)


What I did was setting the first color to 150 hue, 150 sat, 0 lum. Then I added a color with 150 hue, 150 sat, but increasing the lum 10 by 10 (step 10), until I got to lum=210.  That way the colors were really vivid in a shade of blue.
It would be great to see other combinations of colors, there's a lot of creativity in the color scheme of this element.

right klick on the elements and then cut out or change the UI Element.
For this construct you need a (left/right) splitter, and then on the left field of the splitter you also need a (top/bottom) splitter.
Just rightclick on the fields and insert the new ui element.

I hope this will help you a little bit!

I still think it's rather ugly, but I'm using a darker colour to reduce strain on my eyes. I wish there was some way to remove the very obvious splitter bars, or at least, reduce them to being a few pixels thick.

What would be really cool is if you could specify which columns the playlist would show depending on the playlist tab that's selected. The reason I wonder is that my classical/opera music contains extra tags that my pop/rock collection does not, such as performer, conductor, etc...
If foobar could remember which columns to show per playlist that would rock....
Unless this exists?

Doubt it.

Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Jose Hidalgo on 2008-02-23 17:37:18
I agree too. In fact the best would be if, for each playlist, one could specify which columns to show / hide.

Some examples :
- For classical music : more columns (conductor, performer, etc.)
- For singles : the album column might be not necessary
- For VA albums : the artist column might be necessary (it isn't in most albums, except when album artist is not null)
- For soundtracks : the genre column might be not necessary if the genre has been already set to "soundtrack"
- Etc.

So the best would be to be able to create SEVERAL PLAYLIST VIEW LAYOUTS (layout 1, layout 2, layout 3...), and then for each playlist, be able to assign one precise layout (classical -> layout 1, singles -> layout 2, etc.)

The advantage of layouts over columns is simple : in a layout, one could specify each column's width and order. Imagine the possibilities !

And now the big question : what do devs think ?...

You could already do something like this with one column and title formatting.

$if($equal($lower(%genre%),classical),%performer% - %conductor%,%artist%)

...or something to that effect.

Obviously maybe not exactly what you guys are looking for, but if you need something more complicated, there's always other UIs.

Thanks shakey snake.  You know, that's what I like about this forum : whatever your request, there's always someone coming in and saying : "but you can ALREADY do that, don't you know ?" 

As for the rest of your post :
if you need something more complicated, there's always other UIs.

That's the kind of answer I was hoping NOT to get.  IMHO this function is not, or should not be, UI-dependent. In every UI there are playlists and a playlist view, so I'd rather see this as improving the way foobar handles playlists ("playlist preferences" if you like).

Small Note:

Code: [Select]
$if($equal($lower(%genre%),classical),%performer% - %conductor%,%artist%)


can be written more elegantly as:

Code: [Select]
$if($stricmp(%genre%,classical),%performer%- %conductor%,%artist%)


NOTE: stricmp is case insensitive.

Thanks shakey snake.  You know, that's what I like about this forum : whatever your request, there's always someone coming in and saying : "but you can ALREADY do that, don't you know ?" 


It is a lovely forum in that regard!

Could you please provide a version that would test, not if %genre% is equal to "classical", but if %genre% CONTAINS the string "classical" ? Thank you.

I have several genres where I could use your trick, and all of them share the substring "classical". So a new version would avoid having to play with $or, which would be less elegant...

$strstr(%genre%,classical)

using the $lower to force the tag to become lowercase would solve that problem:

Right click your genre facets, under statistics there should be a "subgenre" click that.

NOTE: The subgenre statistic exists ONLY because its the child of the genre facet. In general, other than the predefined presets, you can add the number of children as a column for every facet.

Maybe I'm blind, but I didn't find a "subgenre" option under "Statistics" 

And to your note: Unfortunately, I don't know how to add the number of the subgenres as a column...
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: Frank Bicking on 2008-02-28 16:15:24
As you have already been told by kanak, the "subgenres" statistics column is only available if you have a facet that displays subgenres next to the genre facet, as you can see in your own screenshot. The first statistics column is special and depends on what is displayed in the next facet. If you have two facets with artist and album, it would enable you to display the number of albums for each artist.

So the procedure is as follows: set the first facet to genre, set the second facet to subgenre, and finally add a statistics/subgenres column to the genre facet.

There is no such thing as an officially recommended tag in this regard. Neither field is part of the ID3v2 specifications, for example.

I know you have been told otherwise in this thread (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=61383). Those so-called "standards" were made up by random users who believed that they had some sort of authority on this topic, which they have not. Unless you see any of those fields actively used or mentioned in the default foobar2000 configuration (such as "album artist"), neither custom field is recommended over the other.

No splitter exists by itself, so you can simply replace the parent splitter of the splitter you want to remove with a non-splitter element (like albumlist or whatever) temporarily, and then replace the albumlist with the contents you want.

I have a follow-on question from the above. Is it possible to have the album list on the left and a full playlist on the right, such that selecting an item in the album list will change focus to that item in the playlist?

Currently album list and facets replace the playlist with the selected item. I would like the full "all items" playlist to remain, and merely the focus change.

Hope that's clear

I've been playing around with the Default UI and really love how easy it is to configure.
I have a few questions regarding it:

1.) Is it possible to edit to the Selection Properties UI element? For example, I'd like to display custom tags there. If it's not possible now, is this functionality planned for the future?

2.) I would love something similar to the foo_trackinfo plugin to display custom text/tags as an element. Any chance this could be added?

3.) With the album art UI element, is it possible to display a default jpg instead of [no image]?

4.) I also understand that developer access to develop plugins for the Default UI is very limited. Is this just temporary while it's being developed, or is this a fundamental philosophy and won't change?


Thanks in advance!

Preferences -> Advanced ->Display ->Properties dialog ->Standard fields

I expect something like this will be quickly developed by someone when the SDK is released.

3.) With the album art UI element, is it possible to display a default jpg instead of [no image]?
Preferences -> Advanced ->Display ->Image to display when no album art can be found

4.) I also understand that developer access to develop plugins for the Default UI is very limited. Is this just temporary while it's being developed, or is this a fundamental philosophy and won't change?
I think we can assume it will be released, however I imagine that it is taking a while to be released because what Elements will be allowed to do will probably be fairly restricted, compared to other types of components, so that they cannot be abused the way more recent GUI components have abused the SDK in the eyes of the foobar2000 devs.

I can only hope that the album art filenaming will become more flexible in the future.

Another question, when using the Custom Grouping schemes, is it possible for the header/separating row to be on 2 lines? With 2 lines of text? If so, what's the "Return Carriage" command?

Someone threw a suggestion of being able to change the alignment from left, right, center. I also think that would be great addition.

I made quite a few changes to my fb2k layout recently. The point was to make it more 'portable' - when I use it on my brother's rig, it has to fit in 1024x768. So I made it narrower and put a few tabs on the layout to get rid of the sidebar which is not always needed, afterall...

Extended mode (default) (http://w3.szivarvanynet.hu/alvaro84/hwsw/foo_mode1.png)
Info mode with a sidebar (http://w3.szivarvanynet.hu/alvaro84/hwsw/foo_mode2.png)
'Ghosts' mode - for watching recent NIN releases with embedded art in each and every track (http://w3.szivarvanynet.hu/alvaro84/hwsw/foo_mode3.jpg)

And yes, I made an integrated 'Ghosts' mode for this new layout. The point that it has a large album art viewer field for those great photos. Not as big as the pictures themselves (they're 800x800 and 1000x1000), but this 640x640 seems to be good enough  Album art sizes are strictly enforced in both Extended and Info mode, and 640 width is also enforced in Ghosts mode (the window is still resizeable vertically and it's possible to make it smaller, but otherwise everything's fixed - pity that I can't fix Facets' panel width if I have more than one... the lower limit for window size is 1024x437, when my layout reaches the point where there are no playlist items visible in Extended mode so the bottom of the client area hits the upper-locked horizontal splitter. Window width is fully locked to 1024. (Though it would be nice if there were fixed/auto-resized playlist columns jult like in CUI - not for this particular layout, but I missed them with my last one.)

Columns:
- As Extended mode shot shows 'extinf' column is to display bitrate/mod channels/SID type for the codec
- In Info mode the Codec column only shows %codec%, without profile. It sized to be able to display "Monkey's..." from "Monkey's Audio", the longest named codec I've ever seen. Everything else I know (including Wavpack/Musepack) fits perfectly (up to 'Musepack / BrainDead' in Extended mode). Everything's sized to accomodate these with MS sans serif 8 (I need every characters in both Hungarian/German/Swedish/Japanese/etc. sets) with or without ClearType.
- That little one( half)-character column is ReplayGain. It's 'denser' when the track has AlbumGain, not only TrackGain (and it's '-' when the track has none).

It seems that there is a little wasted space on the right side of the playlists and one of the facets - it's to avoid getting horizontal scrollers even if I switch to XP's default layout (normally I use a slightly modified Classic theme).

I also experimented with enforcing 640x640 display in Ghosts view, but I found no elements on my layout that could be used to lock the way it wouldn't have allowed to resize the window under 1024x733 but would have made it possible to resize above. I tried to put a horizontal splitter under the 640x640 album art, but it looked plain ugly when resized above the minimum size and putting a 'filler' vis panel under it looked bad again. So now it's still way too resizeable vertically...

p.s. the text colors are the same in all the 3 modes, it's just Irfanview's JPEG compression that messed it up on the last picture (it was too large as a png)...

I've found the default gallery options to be more than enough and a big step up from the 0.8.3 options.  Seeing the file info in a separate box and some visualizations are nice touches that make foobar that much more polished.  I don't see why anyone would need more than the basics unless you like staring at your audio software instead of listening to stuff with it.

Hi all!

How can i setup/make the rating in the Default UI?



Install a component "Playback Statistics", then go to Preferences/Display/Default User interface/Playlist view and add a line Name: Rating and Pattern: $pad($repeat(?,%rating%), 5,?). Change playlist fonts to Arial Unicode MS.
Then go to the playlist and choose columns.

Hi m8,

I use facets for Artist/Album/Tracks. I have the Album facet sorted by a Year column. The Tracks facet is sorted by a Track Number column, and includes a rating column too.

On the right side is a Playlist View element. When i double click an Artist, all of that Artist's music is added to the playlist, replacing the current one. When i double click an album, that album replaces the current playlist.

Middle click is the same as double click but enqueues the tracks on the playlist, instead of replacing.

I dont use multiple playlists, so i didnt add a playlist manager. I guess its something ill add later, but for now this layout gives me quick access to all that i want to hear.

Hey davio,


take a look at my post here (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=58574&pid=580684&st=150&#), there it's explained...

Basically, you need the component "foo_quicktag", configure it to set the tag "rating" to any value (I use 0 to 5) and bind these macros to some buttons...

oh well i had that component anyway so i got it up and running but i have another question. 

ive tried rating some of my music in foobar but when i go to itunes it doesnt keep the rating! same happens other way round is there a way around this?  its no biggie just wondered if you could.

also can you create custom  playlists in foobar like itunes where you can create a playlist containing all your top rated music? or say a playlist containing only a certain genre?  hope you know what i mean

Yeah, I use an Album Artist - Album (Year) grouping scheme, and a custom column that displays Track Artist - Title in the case of Various Artists albums. The Library tab uses two vertically arranged facets (Album Artist and Albums, or Genre and Artist), and the Playlists tab has album art and playlist switcher. Not too different from a default setup, my days of spending hours playing with titleformatting are behind me lol

I just added a toolbar header and then placed it at the bottom.  I like to keep all the stuff related to the playlist down there.  Quicker to click on for me.  After that I did the Customize Buttons option (right click on the toobar header) then added a button for each context for Playback Statistics / Rating 0 - 5 .  The icon Rate is really for 0 but it kind of explains the 1 - 5.  For each number I used one of my icons to use on the button.
Thanks for the kind words.

I have only been using Foobar for several weeks or so, I have really enjoyed using it on a daily basis.  I attempted to create a theme that works for me.  I like it simple and most of the time I have it minimized anyways.  I hope that it is not too simple for everybody.  I use foo_facets and foo_textdisplay (Only for lyrics).  And since I keep it minimized so much, I love foo_AdvancedControls.

(http://www.banditland.net/foobar/js_foobar_th.png) (http://www.banditland.net/foobar/js_foobar.png)

I also included the custom icons for my theme.  I created them in Paint Shop Pro as *.png files and then converted them to icons with Gimp.  Feel Free to use any where you want (They are not that good anyway).

And Lastly here is my Theme file. js_foobar_theme (http://www.banditland.net/foobar/js_foobar_theme.fth)

How do you insert all those custom buttons ? e.g. I'd love to have 5 rating buttons in my DUI config, but I don't see any corresponding DUI element I could use... is there some tutorial or something ? Thanks for your help.

Just insert a toolbar header and then choose customize buttons.  Add a icon to the menu item and your set.

You need to change your font to Arial Unicode MS.  If you do not have this font it might be because you do not have MS Office installed.  I did not see this font until I installed Office, and I have not found it anywhere else on the web.  There might be a substitute but I am not sure.
The spectrum is set to 160 bands.  Also I never have this setup at full screen, that might cause some of these problems.  I like to keep it at about 70% of might 15.4" laptop screen.  When I go full screen it does change the look of it.

Yes, I thought of this, but I also thought that maybe there is a setting somewhere that I could not find. The only place that I found those other columns was in the advance settings and there are no parameters that I could find.  Thanks for the reply.

Not sure, but it may be that we are in two differing spots of foobar config.

I am simply using a standard preference dialog reached in one of two manners.

Preferences>default user interface>playlist view>custom columns>add new
or
Playlist element>right click on any column heading>columns>more

That is possible, but you'll need the font(s) (s)he uses in a config, they're not saved into the .fth file (of course).

My fth file is above, so are the custom icons.  The only thing that I can not give is the font that I use.
I found a lot of fth files at various places in these forums, some work well and others you have to play around with it to get it to look the same.  My theme will not look the same on another computer if you run it at full screen.  Good luck on finding a theme that you like.

Do they display incorrectly everywhere or only in the selection properties element? If it is that latter you will have to install East Asian Fonts by going to Control Panel - Regional and Language Options - Languages. Note that you will need your Windows Install Disc (this if for XP by the way though I imagine it's similar for Vista)

If you don't want to deal with that you could replace the selections properties element with foosion's text display element fairly easily.

To the Developers: I realize this behavior is not exactly a bug, but it is certainly not very intuitive, is there any way ratings written by the official playback statistics could be displayed by any Unicode font instead of having to install East Asian Font support?

Could you take a screen shot and pm me with that photo?  I did not do anything special to get it to display, only had to make sure that the font was installed.  I found this code else where in these forums
$pad($repeat(?,%rating%), 5,) to actually display the stars in the rating column under the pattern field.
I have tried to get the iii on my setup and can not.  Even if I choose another font it may be boxes or circles but never iii.

Code: [Select]
$repeat($char(9733),%rating%)$repeat($char(9734),$sub(5,%rating%))

it worked.


Not to be a pain but, does anyone have any other fonts that aren't so plain looking that has stars for ratings?

I was using avalon from someones dark blue theme but no stars and the current unicode thingy is just to professional for me.


Any fonts that are readable, gothic/metal'ish, horror  looking would do.

Heck maybe another symbol instead...crosses, plus sign (blah!) ...any ideas?

I never installed East Asian Fonts.  Where do you check for that?  I have a basic Win XP laptop with Office loaded on it.  I have looked everywhere for those fonts.  Any help would be appreciated.  I do not want to have someone install something that they do not need. Thanks


This is a mistake on my part, I had remembered seeing this (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=58233&st=75&p=569671&#) post, however I never read the person who was having the problems response. Perhaps it wasn't applicable or maybe it was an issue that has been fixed, I don't really no. Sorry for any confusion my post caused.


No Problem here, I just wanted to make sure that I did not install something that I did not even know about.  Problems with fonts can be a real pain at times, I try to use the character map to see what can and can not be displayed.  Thanks for the response.

ok, Ironwalker Iwrote your code but nothing... Again "iii". Then I noticed that Jamen Shook's  code in my foobar playlist preference is
$pad($repeat(SQUARE HERE ✩,%rating%), 5,) . Ichanged the square to "*" and I saw "*" in the playlist but "iii" again in the info box. So it has to do with both fond and code. Any ideas? What is the character number for the star symbol?

Problem solved! As Jamen Shook said in the first place, I had to install the arial unicode MS. Well, I had Arial, not arial unicode which comes with the office 2007( not 2003 which I have). So, now I see everything alright, both the playlist stars and the  info  box stars! Thanks for helping me!!

Yes you can.

Go to Preferences -> Media Library -> Facets and set Select change to either "Send to the Facets playlist" or "Send to the current playlist" (depending on which playlist you want to use).

Thanks Jamen Shook, it works. I had noticed foobar buttons were customizable but :
- I had never tried it before,
- I didn't know that one could associate custom buttons to custom scripts. That's great. So now I can have 6 custom rating buttons (0 to 5) in my DUI.

Thanks again.

Go to an image hosting site such as ImageShack (http://www.imageshack.us), click on the "Choose..." button and find the image you wish to upload. When you've selected the image, click on the "Host It!" button.

After the image has been uploaded to ImageShack just copy the text from the "Thumbnail for Forums (1)" line into your "Add Reply" box and you're done.

Hi,

Its foo_textdisplay, read about it here: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=64478 (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=64478)

I added it to a new tab, and used this code:

%artist% - %title%$crlf()
$repeat($char(9733),%rating%)$repeat($char(9734),$sub(5,%rating%))$crlf()
$crlf()
$if(%lyrics%,%lyrics%,No lyrics)

This shows on top Artist - Track Title, followed by rating below and lyrics after, like this:

I think that's down to the visual style you're using. deviantart (http://www.deviantart.com/#catpath=customization/skins/windows/visualstyle&order=9) is a good source for visual styles. You need a patched uxtheme.dll as well. (Or you can use Windowblinds but I found that to be pretty slow and bloated.)

I don't use the DUI on my home PC as it won't support my cover art naming scheme and there is no plugin to view time-stamped lyrics. I'm really pleased with the setup and would switch to the DUI instead of the plugin that shall-not-be-named if I could use my albumart and lyrics.


Using foo_uie_lyrics with foo_dockable_panels might get you 50% of your way there. The implementation results in a floating lyric panel which is problematic only if you regularly drag your foobar window about the desktop. Worth a try.

Terribly sorry I didn't even notice anyone took interest. It's simply just a button that is linked to the last.fm radio plugin (I forgot where I got the button, I think it was actually from last.fm)

As for the artist information it's just simply me going to last.fm copying and pasting the artist information to my comment tags. I use foosions plugin to display it just as if someone would do with lyrics.

It's a lot of work but I was very bored one day. :x

I have yet to seen someone show config that..

- Not a minimalist config, I want to see configs that at least have all of these and does NOT hide in Tabs : Album art view, Any type of Vis that are not embedded in toolbar, Album list or (more preferably) Facet with 3 or more columns, Playlist view.
- Densely pack yet easily readable, any text (Title, Album name, etc) show in anywhere should not clipped and show ellipsis for most of the times.
- Rectangle shape, and not tall.
- and the most important, NOT huge! foobar size should have height no more than 550 pixels.

I find it difficult to design such layout that still look neat, foobar DUI need a lot of spaces to use efficiently IMO. I did have my own layout but so far after a lot of time and tinkering, I came up with only 1 layout which I currently using.

I need some more ideas.. Anyone?

The lyrics are not a default UI element, it's some Columns UI panel running in foo_dockable_panels (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=49263).
I don't know what specifically you like about the second image, again floating dockable lyrics on the left, the layout can be modified using Layout Editing Mode (http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Layout_Editing_Mode) as always, other parts tuned in Preferences > Display > Default User Interface > Colors and Fonts, the overall look still depends on global Windows theme/style.
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: smkk on 2009-08-27 13:48:10
The lyrics thing looks like foo_uie_lyrics. To get it into DUI you need foo_dockable_panels, but it will be a floating window and not integrated into the layout.
If you don't need synced karaoke lyrics you can use foo_texttools instead to display the lyrics. This component is fully compatible with DUI and can be integrated in the layout.

edit: way too slow

foobar's DUI themes and what it offers is plenty for users that just want to listen to music and not necessarily want to look at an audio player.  The DUI won't knock your socks off with the basic themes, but that's not usually why people choose foobar in the first place.  Keep up the excellent work Peter and company!  The DUI just makes it that much easier to work with the music you do have.

you need to enable layout editing mode (found on the view>layout menu). from there you can add/remove UI elements to your layout.

.....but before diving in with that, i suggest you try using the "Create scratchbox" option first (found under the same menu). it pops up a new window with a totally blank canvas to play with. this allows you to familiarise yourself with how to add splitters and panels without actually touching your current layout. if you make something you're happy with in the scratchbox, you can always apply it to your main foobar window.

@falstaff, thanks for the link.

This is part of the WSH panel suite that was released by carmenm here: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=78166 (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=78166)

Basically you'll first need WSH panel mod (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=70363) and then you'll need to install the manager script from that suite and then the last.fm similar script.

install the WSH panel mod component - http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=70363 (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=70363)
goto file>preferences>tools>WSH panel mod. uncheck the option labelled "safe mode".
now add a WSH panel to your layout.

download this - http://cid-649d3bfeaf541fbb.skydrive.live....ide/samples.zip (http://cid-649d3bfeaf541fbb.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/foobar/guide/samples.zip)

extract the contents into your main foobar directory. now open your new WSH panel mod panel config dialog. use the "Import" button and browse to your

foobar directory\other WSH samples (new)\now playing.txt

it uses last.fm to get the background images. you can read more about how it works here...

@nickdc, when adding a panel to your layout, you'll find "tabs" listed under "containers" in the "add new UI element" dialog.

oh right, i thought you would know how to use "layout editing mode". this is found on the "view>layout" menu.

but before trying that, i suggest you have a play around with the "create scratchbox" option first. using this, you can experiment with how too add/replace panels. a few minutes messing around with that and you'll be ready to edit your main foobar layout.
Title: Discussion of "Default UI Gallery"
Post by: nickdc on 2010-02-21 16:19:31
Ok i've found some guides on the web that say this:

Go to View -> Layout -> and click Create Scratchbox. You should get a window like the one below. This Scratchbox lets you mess with the interface without it actually applying until you tell it to.

But i have only these options in view menu with foobar 1.0, there isn't "Create Scratchbox":

Hi Marc,

may I ask for getting this really nice config? I like the idea using the HTPC panel within a "simple" columns ui layout.

Thanks in advance

^i've already posted instructions above for the panel. and you can't have the whole config because it's default UI.

@nickdc, that config is way old now. i don't have it anymore. it's simple to reproduce though. just mess around with the layout editor as i mentioned above. you'll soon get the hang of it.

the biography panel is in this download - http://cid-649d3bfeaf541fbb.skydrive.live....ide/samples.zip (http://cid-649d3bfeaf541fbb.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/foobar/guide/samples.zip)

extract contents in to your foobar program directory
goto file>preferences>tools>wsh panel mod and uncheck the option labelled "safe mode". restart foobar when prompted.
import .fth file.

**additional last.fm instructions**

if you want to love tracks/show playcount/loved track status in your playlist.

1) goto file>preferences>tools>soft playlists and enter your last.fm username and password
2) right click on the big exclamation mark button and enter your last.fm username and API KEY. get an api key here....

http://www.last.fm/api/account (http://www.last.fm/api/account)

3) IMPORTANT: if you already use foo_customdb then don't follow this step as it will overwrite your existing settings.

if you're using standard foobar install (that is not portable), close foobar and then move the "configuration" folder that came inside this zip into

%appdata%\foobar2000

edited to add info about foo_customdb. obviously the script won't work unless you use my customdb settings. i can tell you how to add them to an existing database setup if you need it.

Hello marc2003,

How do you make the grouping title have a different font size? I can only change the font size of the whole playlist under the DUI options, and EsPlaylist doesn't seem to have any formatting options as of version 0.0.6.0.

@marc2003

Your Last.fm script and DUI config is great. One thing I am missing is that the DB value LASTFM_PLAYCOUNT_DB2 doesn't update when a track was completely played and scrobbled with the Last.fm client. I have activated scrobbling when 99% of the track is played in the Last.fm client. So when 100% of the track is played in foobar it should update the Last.fm Playcount value. What do you think?

Sorry I missed that. Well I ended up tweaking the script just to find out that there´s no way I can implement it without a mess of splitters at least in DUI :S maybe I will come with some idea... sigh*

That's a very good question...you'd think it would be simple but after looking for a way for awhile last night, I can't find anything in the main menu or Preferences either. I'm sure there's an answer by editing a cfg file or something, but I'm new to foo and still finding my way around. Man, what a plethora of styles can be had with this app, and it seems that just about anything is possible in a way, but the initial learning curve can be daunting for the non savvy users. Fortunately I'm a loooong time tech help/security forum expert so I can learn fairly quickly, but it's still quite the task....and also allot of fun too!

I'm gonna have some questions for y'all soon, hope you don't mind a new foo newb poking around the dark recesses of your brains for awhile 
Take care!

There is no way to disable main menu and status bar in the Default User Interface.
They can be disabled in the alternative Columns UI, though.

There ya go...
Thanx Yirkha. Not that I'm looking to do this, but I don't like to see little questions like this go unanswered, so I just wanted to help it along.
BTW, does anyone know of a thread anywhere where people have exchanged different EQ presets for others to try? I like to experiment with other folks settings.

Also, couldn't help but notice your sig note too...how true! In some poorly moderated forums you see thread after thread of huge posts quoted and requoted, without any trimming, and it just makes reading that thread a horrific PITA! I mean...how hard is it to delete excess cruft before you reply to a quoted post?
Damn I'm having fun learning FB2K!

Your image did not show for me. Maybe too large?

Nevertheless:

1. do you mean window title?
You can not get rid of foobar notation. However, you could add something like $repeat(' ',70) to the end of your string and it will push foobar towards the right. Replace number with whatever works for you and your window size.

2. Can not hide column heading in Default User Interface

3. No idea. Hacking an executable for such a small thing seems a bit pointless - good luck

@tflogic:

2) To remove the column headings, try using EsPlaylist instead of the Default UI playlist.  It allows this.

3) I believe that the arrow icon is located in foo_ui_std.dll.  Try hacking that.

1) yeah, the window title. i tried adding that piece of code to the end of the string but since it exceeds the character limit on my taskbar, it just adds "..." at the end.

2) really? seems like a simple option.

3) well, reshacking an icon or bmp usually takes less than 30 seconds if you know where it can be found. it has to be somewhere! someone must have tried this before me.

Hitchhiker, thanks so much for the help! However, there is one problem I encountered with using EsPlaylist versus the regular playlist viewer. Since I don't need album art, I disabled it in the group settings, trying to emulate my playlist in that screenshot above. However, where the albumart displays, there's an extra column taking up space on the left side of the playlist viewer. Right clicking on it doesn't allow me to remove it but instead only allows me to insert other columns to the right of it. How do I delete that column?

or maybe change the playlist search window behaviour to behave like winamp, use a (global) hotkey then the playlist search window pop up (on top of other window) regardless foobar window is active/not

I would really like to use the default UI. However, 3/4 of my library is classical and the artist/album/song paradigm just doesn't work. I did this in CUI -- Can I do anything similar in DUI? I've tried facets, but that doesn't cut it either.:

Well, I guess that answers the question. Pop music looks just as stupid in a classical layout as vice versa. Do I really want to group pop tunes by composer? The overwhelming reason that I use Foobar2000/CUI is that this is the only combo that does classical library right.

Not sure what portion you are looking at.
Tdishbd post 333 is showing a single instance of a playlist viewer - probably simplaylist. Post 332 shows a facets library viewer above simplaylist.

tg2k3 , on right, has a playlist tabbed container holding a simplaylist. On left, not sure. Most likely a tabbed container with facets set to a single pane showing art and text.

Could be wrong. PM them.

Sums up why I have been using Foobar 2000 for the past 6 or so years. Would be good if the status bar could be toggled off in a future release. I don't use title tags in audio files as my audio player shows up the filenames anyway. I only use artist (with two letter country codes or three letter soundtrack code) and album title (with year prefix) tags. I feel all other tags are superfluous and redundant.

http://i.imgur.com/5jGvr.png (http://i.imgur.com/5jGvr.png)

I loled really hard and damned my perfectionism which is the reason why I put countless hours of tagging into my library :-D

I never use playlists, so this is more then adequate for me.

my theme...all information visible (no tabs)
thanks to marc2003 and falstaff for their great scripts (some slightly altered for my own needs)

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17136367/foobar.png (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17136367/foobar.png)

The last.fm tags panel is altered by you, right? I'd be really happy if you'd share that script.

Also, how does the flag thing work? I see you have a country tag, but is it automated in any way, or have you tagged everything manually and dl:ed the icons yourself?

here is the tags script (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17136367/toptags.txt)
it is basically the same as the similar artists script from marc2003 (thanks again)...i just changed the last.fm query + use a separate file in the data folder (toptags.json) also display the 'count' from last.fm to
get an idea of how popular a tag is for that artist

the flag thing is not automated...i store the country per artist in a foo_customdb field (so i had to manually do 1 operation per unique artist that is in my library)
the panel then loads the correct flag image (images just stored locally on hdd)

Hmm thanks, but for some reason it crashes, any idea why it does that? I have another panel with marc2003:s similar artists script that works just fine....Maybe I have to create a toptags.json, how do I do that?

Hi all,

After many years of using FB2K + CUI, I am now looking to see whether I can have the same (or the most important anyway) features using FB2K + DUI (as CUI is not updated)

My first hurdle... Filters (that can be assigned to custom tag fields, not just the standard ones like Artist, Album etc.). Am I right in thinking DUI does not have Filters like this? How do people overcome this?

Thanks,
Rohit

Great thanks. I came across this component also and shortlisted it to install - but I could not tell if it did indeed have filters. Thanks for the confirmation.

It's more of an experiment, definitely haven't decided to leave CUI for good at the moment - who knows, maybe FB2k+DUI will suit me even more

The other couple of components I think are quite popular from what I have read and searched so far, are:
- foo_simplaylist
- quicksearch toolbar
If you have any thoughts on these with any pros/cons feel free to share!

i should say right now the "playlist" is purely for display purposes. it won't be very functional at all. all you can do is scroll (it's really meant for displaying a single album) and double clicking a track to start playback.

you can't do anything other than hide the entire volume feature. you could add a volume slider to your toolbars instead. although you lose the dB display, it shows as a tooltip when you move it.

As an icon hater this was really bad news.. Adding the slider and click and drag was a good idea. However I am an all keyboard user and have that mapped. Although I thank for your input.

i remember answering your thread. i said you cannot add 3rd party toolbars but you didn't say anything about customising the standard buttons. that's been possible for as long as i can remember. IIRC, you have to use 16x16 .ico files and you can bind them to any main menu/context commands just like you can with keyboard shortcuts.

from your original thread:

My aim is to create a button which, when pressed, pops up a custom menu. This menu is an ever-expanding personal "Help" system and collection of things I find useful such as "lists" and "reference documents" and "tools".


you can do it in columns but not default UI.

see the post above yours (i'm guessing your post was moved and that's why you didn't see it before).

download the samples zip and the script you want is named now playing.txt

it has loads of other stuff enabled by default such as track info, CD cover, ratings and buttons. but you can toggle all of those to off to reproduce the simple art/bio panel as seen in the screenshot thread.

Yep, all is jscript, including keyboard inputs, copy/paste text from clipboard, text selections ... like any "classic" textbox, i'm was sure you should be interrested in a such thing , i use it too in the playlist manager panel to rename a playlist.

The WSH playlist viewer is not complete yet, just drag'n drop support in and out of the panel is to add and a kind of panel for settings that mimics a bit ELPlaylist settings window.

FYI, cover can be in the group header or as a column (the 1st one) and resizable as all other columns thru the toolbar columns, extra "empty" rows are added depending of the cover size. cpu consumption is better than ELPlaylist panel, so, i'm really pleased of the script use on a +44k library as a playlist)

it's all WSH panel mod. the buttons are included in a pack of scripts i share here. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22801321/wsh/samples.zip (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22801321/wsh/samples.zip) (script is named themed toolbar buttons)

the bottom bar is actually a WSH panel mod seekbar. it's also included in the above bundle. it does require extra downloads though, links are included in the script. it needs SoX and ffmpeg to generate the spectrogram and these take around 30MB of disk space. my script then triggers them to creates the images as you play each track. it takes a few seconds (or more depending on track length). the default settings create files around 80KB for each track. or to put it another way, i've played 716 tracks since i made it and it's using 54MB of disk space. there are cleanup options on the right click menu.

I have also read the user manual (txt file) and did not see any mention of $rgb(r,g,b).
Are you 100% sure that EsPlaylist allows use of conditional color formatting in fb2k Default User Interface?

you really have to ask even though you can see it right before your eyes? even testing it would have been less effort than typing out that post.

edit: but if you must insist on more confirmation then it really is 100% yes. i've used it myself for a couple of years now.

I swear to God I have played with the syntax of EsPlaylist in the past to achieve this effect but got nothing.
Anyhow, I tried again . . . . and it works. YES, ESPLALIST ACCEPTS $RGB INPUT.

I must say, the reason it failed last time is because I was prefixing the color code to the beginning of a long expression, and I was not inserting the $RGB code in the correct place.

I've seen a few implementations that use the VU meter-stageline VU 800 meter.

I tried to use the same one, but when I set left+right layout, they always display side by side and not over/under. The only way I could get over/under is by doing 2 of them, but then I'm stuck with an extra splitter which looks terrible.

Can anyone who tried and got the over/under please give me a tip?

thanks much!

First you have to make sure that you have both of the stageline files, StageLine VU 800 SW1.bin and StageLine VU 800 SW2.bin, the second one is required for proper layout.

Then, you can set the layout to Left+Right (V) to get it to show as such:

What version of VU Meter do you have? I do not have 2 Left+Right options for H+V (v.2012-05-12), but that would certainly help!

Might be a rather old post but i'm wondering if you still have around the script for the bottom bar that shows the FLAC image when you are playing a flac track along with the information on the rightside of it if not how would i do that to show either the FLAC/MP3 image when im playing either kind of tracks

it's a script for WSH panel mod. i've uploaded it here... https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2280132.../properties.txt (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22801321/wsh/temp/properties.txt)

you might want to edit the code on line 45 for the images folder location. you can create your own images folder inside your foobar profile folder (or main foobar folder if using portable mode).

you'll need to get the images yourself. i used this set of icons on deviantart. http://dexxaboy.deviantart.com/art/Foobar2000-Icons-67863639 (http://dexxaboy.deviantart.com/art/Foobar2000-Icons-67863639)

they're ico files but you can use a program called icofx to batch extract png files from them all at once. then rename them to match the codecs you're using.

icofx is now shareware but this old version 1.6.4 is free: http://filehippo.com/download_icofx/6890/ (http://filehippo.com/download_icofx/6890/)

I added a Track View version of my playlist with sortable column headers for organizing and such. Not sure why I never did this before, it's really useful when sorting, tagging, and rating tracks.

(Yeah I have a lot of duplicate Björk tracks. That's what I get for feeling the compulsive urge to collect every release...)

the column on the left is foo_facets. http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_facets (http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_facets)

the main playlist is EsPlaylist. http://foo2k.chottu.net/#esp (http://foo2k.chottu.net/#esp)

it's the only playlist viewer for default UI that supports colour. you simply edit each column and insert this code before the title formatting...

Code: [Select]
$rgb(255,0,0)


that would be red. you can save that screenshot above and use the color picker in an image editing application to get the colours. you can do this with mspaint on windows 7/8. i don't think earlier versions have it but paint.net would be a good alternative.

This is probably a looooong shot.

I was wondering if it's possible to change the DUI Selection and Highlight colors to match the album art.

So this is what it is at the moment:

But I want it to change to match the album art colours when you select an album to play like this:
(http://i.imgur.com/83jSU3Z.jpg)

I've seen something similar where br3tt/falstaff remade the itunes 11 theme for foobar. Br3tt's DUItunes (http://br3tt.deviantart.com/art/DUiTunes-beta1-412700925)

I'm hoping this is possible because it would be an awesome feature.

True, but you could just make it use hue with full saturation. If you have a dark background like mine it would work.

Hey there! I like the looks of this UI: http://customize.org/foobar/skins/65153 (http://customize.org/foobar/skins/65153). But am new to this foobar "skinning". Can you guys/girls please advise whether or not downloading that skin is safe or perhaps not. Because I haven't got the slightest clue what is mainstream to fb2k skinning and what is considered balancing on edge. I do understand foo is customizable because of it's core modular setup. But he only piece of software I can write and understand is a DOS batch-file.

you can add your own buttons (right click>customise buttons). then use the change icon button to browse for your own .ico files. IIRC, they must contain a 16x16 image.

I recently made a playlist view that is tailored for classical music tags but that would be the only thing missing..

Like marc2003 said, all my custom icons range from 16px to 32px. I found them mainly through softicons (http://www.softicons.com/free-icons)and iconfinder (https://www.iconfinder.com/).

Besides the very top buttons, the rest are "bottom-docked" which you have to checkmark in layout editing mode. HTH

Foobar2000 is really awesome! Thanks to the developers!!

I've finally configured out how to make the title bar text shortened...
For example, this Japanese song's title is "鈴懸の木の道で「君の微笑みを夢に見る」と言ってしまったら僕たちの関係はどう変わってしまうのか、僕なりに何日か考えた上でのやや気恥ずかしい結論のようなもの" which completely mess up the title bar, but I managed to make it display only "鈴懸の木の道で「君の[...]しい結論のようなもの"

This song's article in English Wikipedia is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzukake_no_K...Y%C5%8D_na_Mono (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzukake_no_Ki_no_Michi_de_%22Kimi_no_Hohoemi_o_Yume_ni_Miru%22_to_Itte_Shimattara_Bokutachi_no_Kankei_wa_D%C5%8D_Kawatte_Shimau_no_ka,_Bokunari_ni_Nannichi_ka_Kangaeta_Ue_de_no_Yaya_Kihazukashii_Ketsuron_no_Y%C5%8D_na_Mono) in case anyone want to know...

that's not possible. consider using foo_textdisplay (http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_textdisplay) if you want to display large chunks of text.

Did some further tweaking. Displays all I want to see and is reasonably clean.


i see you've mangled in the rating script into your toolbar as well.... but there's not really much need for it - falstaff's playlist script lets you rate tracks directly from the playlist itself.

Mangled? Whatever.

I don't normally have cursor following so it makes it easy to rate on the fly where it is.

Kudos to devs for Foobar - indeed great. I'm a new convert.  Just 3 quick ques...

1. can someone tell me how to create command or menu so that delete button not only deletes song from library but also from computer.

2. to retag my songs (as some are messed up- just say track 1 ...), if I want to do this across multiples folders and tell foobar to rename album name from "folder name" and song name from  filename (minus any numbers in there) - how do I do that ?

3. to get volume normalization across my playlist- which can span multiple folders, even on home network- whats the best way.

thanks a lot, in advance

Started to play around with Default UI after using Columns UI for ages now. I noticed a significant performance boost when filter my large libraries using DUI. Used the TABS heavily to customize with my different preference, i.e. when tagging music, browsing and listening, or just listening at full screen and amazed by others

After using Simplaylist for quite a while as I got it to work for classical music I decided to try something different. Here is the result of much tinkering.

(http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o174/LindsayCA/foobar1_zps746f569c.jpg) (http://s120.photobucket.com/user/LindsayCA/media/foobar1_zps746f569c.jpg.html)

There are 6 WSH panel mod objects in use of which Falstaff's beautiful new JSPlaylist is the key part of the layout. As classical music buffs know it can be challenging using the right metadata to properly catalogue such a collection.

I've started thinking about and experimenting with how to use the custom metadata in different ways other than presenting everything album by album as I've always done before. I'm still using Facets (on another tab) to list my complete collection.

What do you think?

Wow.  I appreciate the unique tagging requirements imposed by classical recordings.  I have yet to tackle it myself, but... from a purely visual perspective, what you have going on there looks incredible.  Fantastic work.

I would be interested to know more about your approach, and how the "experimenting" evolves it.

I hope this is the right spot to ask my UI questions, as I have two related to the properties dialogue.

When I entered the layout editing mode, I wasn't able to change anything in the properties window; only the main fb2k window responded, so I thought I'd ask here. Thanks!

Hm, bummer. The reason I wanted to put the album art there is that I don't want to change my main window layout to always have the album art taking up space. I only want to be able to look at it now and then at full size, which would make the fb2k window take up most of my screen. Is it possible to open a separate window for the album art, or can you only add a pane (that's always visible) to the rest of the interface for it?

Post by: Aleron Ives on 2015-02-21 05:31:57
It's too late to edit the original post, but I wanted to report that I found a solution for the album art by using the Columns UI + Popup Panels components. The flexibility of fb2k triumphs again!

Here is my current revision of the layout I been using (See February 10 2015 post above). The fabulous JSPlaylist (By Falstaff) is still at the heart of this layout is not a lot different from the original setup. What is changed is the extensive use of Popup Panels to give a clean and uncluttered look.

Nearly all the components are WSH (by Falstaff and Marc2003).

Also used foo-ui_hacks for additional tweaking of the GUI.
Foobar is running in Portable mode (DUI) and has had extensive tweaking over a couple of years.

you can optimise your item details for narrow panels. right click>configure>find the on_paint function. add this line as the first line inside it...

Code: [Select]
li.text_x = 150;

tinker with the value as you please.

CH 033, here is a package of UI.

FooDUI (http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=10342912604596255196)

I didn't remove anything, so just set your media folder and delete playlists.

Since i don't know how familiar you are with Foobar, if you get stuck somewhere fill free to ask. Only things to mention right now is button next to Stop button, it clears playlist, and auCDtect.

Its an option under Converter named auCDtection and in oredr to use it, you will have to sett Destination folder of your own. Mine isn't win generic.

Oh, i forgot to mention, playlist is a bit different than on screen shot. Now Artist - Title column is formated with:

$if($stricmp(%artist%,%album artist%), , %artist%  - )%title%

It's been awhile since I installed foobar fresh and need some reminders. I'm use Album List + Properties (Tabbed) and View = folder structure.  What I want to do is read in all of my compatible music folders, which are contained on a HDD in a single folder called Music.  It should end up looking like the screenshot linked below. I recall there's a way that everything gets read in under Album List, but can't figure it out (and don't see anything about it in the various wikis).  I tried File > Add Folder, it put "All Music" in the Album List and loaded everything else down the main section. The other Add options want individual files.  What am I missing here?  Thanks,

a bit of experimental hacking with WSH panel mod means i can have a fancy console panel with background image...

(http://i.imgur.com/vnj54rr.png)


Nicely done.

Out of curiosity , does the overlay console text auto-scroll to new entries when the panel text gets full and are you piping console output to a text file and reading it from there or are you using some other function to get the console output?

i added a new callback to the component which i'm not sure i will ever release it given the trial and error experimenting i had to do to make it work.

all it does it send one message at a time to the panel. it's entirely up to the script how to handle everything else. you can view the source of my script here but obviously it's useless to anyone without the component...

things i've tried to consider-
don't repaint on every update because you can potentially get dozens or even hundreds of triggers at once. i've got a timer so it doesn't update more than twice a second.
check the overall length and chop off the beginning when it gets too long
auto scrolling to the end

Sup. I don't know if this is the right thread for those questions, but here goes:

This is what my foobar looks like at the moment:

(https://s16.postimg.org/4y8kr0mk1/foobar6.jpg) (https://postimg.org/image/4y8kr0mk1/)

I want to keep the layout and change the color (and maybe the shape) of the window, the sliders, the volume control etc. I don't want to use Columns UI, by the way.

I spent some time looking for tutorials, but I'm still not sure if I can experiment without screwing everything up.

Will exporting the current theme via Default User Interface - Theme Management - Export Theme save EVERYTHING the way it is now?

This is a question for Falstaff OR anybody knowing the answer. I'm curious about this layout : https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,58574.msg910170.html#msg910170

(http://i.imgur.com/3B8ZnJP.jpg)

I'm curious because I see three similar panels/components/scripts, each one with a similar "Filter" at the top. I wonder how that's achieved.
I'm especially curious about the playlist part, which looks nice. I have hundreds of playlists/autoplaylists, so a "Filter" would definitely help me.
I just wonder if this component/script supports playlist folders ? At the moment I'm using Playlist Organizer because of its ability to support playlist folders. If I had to change, the new component/script would have to be able to import the playlist/folder structure of Playlist Organizer : otherwise I'd have to rebuild it entirely, which would be annoying with hundreds of playlists...

Thanks for enlightening me.

You can simply load it as is, doesn't use any other dependency (only the tray icon is linked to different foobar2000 program files ico).

In your playlist manager (EsPlaylist I guess), how did you manage to have a first grouping by artist, then a second grouping by album ?

Oh, those? Peakmeter Spectrum Visualisation. I think it's on the list of unstable components, but for me it works just fine. Normally there are both peakmeter and spectrum in one window, but you can configure it to be only one of them.

I've got a solvable problem I hope, I just don't known enough to figure it out myself. I've been using foobar mainly for format conversions and tagging. I now want to use it as a media player. My problem is the album list, last week I added my media server to the library after an hr or so I had a list of 4800 albums this is way too many items to scroll through, I'd like to just see a list of artists then be able to expand to a list of albums under each artist. From screen shots I've seen in earlier posts I know this configuration is possible. Any help would be appreciated.

Open Preferences -> Media Library -> Album List and create a display pattern. You can use "by artist/album" as a starting point, copy and expand it depending on the tagging standards you follow. To put artist and album on separate levels, insert a vertical bar character "|" between them.

Code: [Select]
[%album artist%|]['['%date%']' ]%album%|[[%discnumber%.]%tracknumber%. ][%track artist% - ]%title%

Thank you for the info I didn't know about the function of the vertical bar and I take it that the bar has to be between "%" and the"]"
Is there a list of operators and all of their functions? I've looked throughout the wiki but can't find anything.
I modified the script you shared slightly, I just want the artist on top and I don't want the date next in the hierarchy.
I loaded it and it's very close to perfect. Only problem is it shows all my tagging shortcoming.

[%artist%|][%album%|][[%discnumber%.]%tracknumber%. ][%track artist% - ]%title%

That vertical bar is called a pipe. A supplement to the Query Syntax (http://file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/foobar2000/doc/Query%20Syntax%20Help.html) page is Titleformat Album List (https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Titleformat_Album_List)

A vertical bar can be anywhere you want. If it is inside square brackets, then it will not be output if the fields on that level were missing.

Hey folks,
This is referring to my post (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?topic=58574.msg998967#msg998967) in the Gallery topic...

(1) I like the Album view concept - some more details would be appreciated on how you organize that? 

(2) How are you avoiding lines between the panels?
Hi @mjm716

(2) Second question first, the background color (in Preferences... Colors And Fonts) is the same as the window color, RGB 240. So the splitters are camouflaged. It helps there is transparency and the fake blur coming through.

(1) A bit of title formatting. ;)  I guess I'll just paste it with a few brief notes and leave you to sort it out as you please...

Aside from the standard fields, my files are tagged with FEATURED, ENSEMBLE, RELEASETYPE, ARTISTGROUP, and DISCSUBTITLE. (At least these are the relevant ones). Of course RELEASETYPE is the key one for most of the headings ("Singles", etc), however I leave the tag empty on most albums which then is coded as "Studio Albums". ENSEMBLE tag you can ignore I think, it should fall back to ALBUM ARTIST in most cases ($if3), I mostly use it as album wide sort tag for bands. And ARTISTGROUP is the link for bands ("Soundgarden") to show up under the solo artist ("Chris Cornell"), in this case the band albums are tagged with ARTISTGROUP=Chris Cornell, for example.

Facets correlates this into one artist entry thanks to the multiple patterns (https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Components/Facets_(foo_facets)#Multiple_patterns) feature. Without this, or using another library viewer, you could still get RELEASETYPE groupings I guess, but could not include the extra fields / headings for completion. So...

Facets - Artist column:
Code: [Select]
$if($not($stricmp(%genre%,Podcast)),%<artist>%)|[$if($not($stricmp(%genre%,Podcast)),%<featured>%)]|[%<artistgroup>%]|$if($strstr($meta(album artist),Various Artists),Various Artists  <<>>)

^ Excludes podcasts, and adds a group for VA albums.

Then EsPlaylist (in default 'Follow Active Playlist' mode) shows the results. Make a new "Album (by Release Type)" group with 2 grouping levels - level 1 for the heading of Artist / Release Type, and level 2 for the Album cover and info. Be sure to tick the box next to level 2 to make it the default.

X


(Level 1 - Artist) Grouping:
Code: [Select]
$if(%artistgroup%,%artistgroup%)$if3(%ensemble%,%album artist%)$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Single),Single)$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Live),Live)$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Compilation),Compilation)$if($strstr(%genre%,Music Video),Video)

(Level 1 - Artist) Title:
Code: [Select]
     $puts(en,$if3( $meta_sep(ensemble,    ),$if($or($strcmp(%ensemble%,%album artist%),$strstr(%artist%, & )), , )$meta_sep(artist,    ),  $meta_sep(album artist,    ),'[Unknown Artist]')$if($or($and(%ensemble%,$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Single)),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Compilation)),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Live)),$not($strstr(%genre%,Music Video))),$and($not(%track artist%),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Single)),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Compilation)),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Live)),$not($strstr(%genre%,Music Video)))), $es_highlight(6)Albums$es_highlight())$if(%track artist%,$if(%ensemble%,, $es_highlight(6)Appears On$es_highlight()))$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Single), $es_highlight(6)Singles$es_highlight())$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Compilation), $es_highlight(6)Compilations$es_highlight())$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Live), $es_highlight(6)Concerts$es_highlight())$if($strcmp(%genre%,Music Video), $es_highlight(6)Videos$es_highlight()))$if($and(%artistgroup%,$strcmp($num(%tracknumber%,1),1)),$if($strstr(%album artist%,$meta(artistgroup,0)), $get(en),$get(en)  $es_highlight(6)' / ' $es_highlight(5) $meta(artistgroup,0)[    $meta(artistgroup,1)] $es_highlight(6)Groups$es_highlight()),$if($strcmp(%album artist%,%artistgroup%),$get(en) ,$if($and(%artistgroup%,$not(%featured%),$not($strcmp($num(%tracknumber%,1),1))),$get(en) )))$if($and(%featured%,$not($strcmp($num(%tracknumber%,1),1))),$if(%artistsort%, $get(en) , $if($strstr(%featured%, & ), , )$meta_sep(featured,    ) $es_highlight(6)Features On$es_highlight() $if($strstr(%releasetype%,Single),$es_highlight(6)Singles$es_highlight() )),$if($and(%featured%,$not(%artistgroup%),$strcmp($num(%tracknumber%,1),1)),$get(en)) )$if($not(%artistgroup%),$if($not(%featured%),$get(en) ))

^ Some unicode characters for icons. (I used to use a different icon for ENSEMBLE, but now the same)
^ Basically a lot of (non- nested) $if functions where only one returns true for each album. I did this ages ago and I'm sure it could be cleaned up now that I know better, but honestly, it takes time. I forget what the ARTISTSORT was needed for, and the other issue is with TRACKNUMBER=1, where EsPlaylist likes to group things under whatever tags the first track has. If the first track has a FEATURED artist tag, EsPlaylist groups the entire album under that instead of the primary artist. So have to ignore it in some cases. (Might not always work perfect)

(Level 1 - Artist) Artwork: set to Artist.

(Level 2 - Album) Grouping:
Code: [Select]
%album%

(Level 2 - Album) Title:
Code: [Select]
[$if($strstr(%discsubtitle%,Live),%discsubtitle%,%album%)]$if($and($not(%album%),$strcmp(%genre%,Music Video)),Music Videos)$if(%favorite%,  )$ifgreater(%_Days in library%,28,,  ✱)

^ If disc 2 (etc) of a set is a "Live" recording (always mentioned in DISCSUBTITLE), I split it from the "Studio Album" and group it under "Concerts".

(Level 2 - Album) Side Info:
Code: [Select]
%album artist%$crlf()
$es_highlight(-1)[$year(%date%)]$if($and(%date%,%releasedate%),' / ')[$year(%releasedate%)]$crlf()
$es_highlight(-2)'('%es_subgroup_count% track$ifgreater(%es_subgroup_count%,1,s,)[$ifgreater(%es_subgroup_count%,1,$if($strstr(%discsubtitle%,Live),, / %totaldiscs% discs),)]')'$crlf()
$es_highlight(-2)'('$if(%length%,$iflonger(%es_subgroup_length%,5,$add($mul($left(%es_subgroup_length%,1),60),$substr(%es_subgroup_length%,3,4)) minutes,$iflonger(%es_subgroup_length%,4,$left(%es_subgroup_length%,2) minutes,$ifequal($left(%es_subgroup_length%,1),0,$right(%es_subgroup_length%,2) seconds,$left(%es_subgroup_length%,1) minute$ifgreater($left(%es_subgroup_length%,1),1,s,)))),~ mintues)')'

^ I use RELEASEDATE field for a reissue / remaster date, while DATE is the original.
^ The album LENGTH is displayed in minutes (i.e. "75 minutes") - if I recall this code only works for durations under 10 hours, which is fine for most albums. I have another one which converts to "days, hours, minutes" for podcasts.

(Level 2 - Album) Artwork: set to Cover Front.

Finally enable 'Force-Sorted' for the entire grouping:
Code: [Select]
$puts(da,|%date%|%releasedate%|$stripprefix(%album%)|%discnumber%|%tracknumber%)$if($and($not(%es_group_header%),$not(%artistgroup%),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Single)),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Compilation)),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Live)),$not($strstr(%genre%,Music Video))),$stripprefix($if3($meta(ensemble,0)aa,%track artist%aaa,$meta(album artist,0)  a,$meta(artist,0)  a))$get(da),$if($and($strstr(%releasetype%,Single),$not(%artistgroup%)),$stripprefix($if3($meta(ensemble,0)b,$meta(album artist,0)  bb,$meta(artist,0)  bb))$get(da),$if($and(%artistgroup%,$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Single)),$not($strstr(%releasetype%,Compilation))),$stripprefix($if3($meta(ensemble,0)c,$meta(album artist,0)  cc,$meta(artist,0)  cc))$get(da),$if($and($strstr(%releasetype%,Single),%artistgroup%),$stripprefix($if3($meta(ensemble,0)d,$meta(album artist,0)  dd,$meta(artist,0)  dd))$get(da),$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Compilation),$stripprefix($if3($meta(ensemble,0)ee,%track artist%eee,$meta(album artist,0)  e,$meta(artist,0)  e))$get(da),$if($strstr(%releasetype%,Live),$stripprefix($if3($meta(ensemble,0)f,$meta(album artist,0)  ff,$meta(artist,0)  ff))$get(da),$if($strstr(%genre%,Music Video),$stripprefix($if3($meta(ensemble,0)g,$meta(album artist,0)  gg,$meta(artist,0)  gg))$get(da),$stripprefix($meta(featured,0))  h$get(da))))))))

^ This time a lot of (nested) $if functions where again only one should return true for each album. The sorting is done by adding letters A-H after the artist name. The objective is to first sort by artist name, then put each type in order: Albums, Singles, Groups, Compilations, Appears On, Concerts, Videos. My problem here is I have not figured out how to sort FEATURED tag as well, without screwing up the rest (complete albums that might have featured artists need to stay complete). So that one annoyingly ends up being sorted by ARTIST name, which might put it before or after the selected artist.

A work in progress, as everything foobar related. :D

(Incidentally if trying to figure this stuff out, I recommend pasting it into Title Formatting Sandbox (https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_tfsandbox) component. There you can click on functions to see the output, whether true/false, and where they begin and end - super useful)

Hello.
I just discovered a new version of the program, and the fact of translation to x64.  :o
And I had only one problem (apart from the fact that the latest version of the plugin for APE is not suitable) - activating the saved edited version of the base shell from the previous version does not work.
The size of the window itself and the panels were not applied. Ok, it doesn't matter, I adjusted it by combining with the previous version of the player, BUT... the player window does not "lock" from changing its size (if you pull the corner / side), despite the fact that I set "lock" to three blue separators shown in the screenshot:
X
In all previous versions, this procedure ensured that the size of the entire player window did not change.
How to achieve this in version 2.0?
Thank you.
