foo_playlist_tree

In the 0.9 version? That doesn't work for me. It asks for a 'pts' file, and if i change it to 'all files' and force it to open a col file, nothing happens. It just sits there.

I have this same issue. Loading .col files adds nothing to Playlist Tree, and I've tried everything I can think of to get this working... but no luck. I am using foobar2000 v0.9.2 with the latest ColumnsUI and Playlist Tree, but perhaps it's something right under my nose that I'm forgetting here? 


playlist 2.x does not read files created from prior versions of playlist tree (it now uses the format pts rather than the col files).

pstrg's post #1395 above signaled that there's something wrong with the way Playlist Tree sorts.
That's not important for English names and titles (English is the only language with Roman characters that uses no accents) but for any other language it's indeed a problem.
Since foobar2000 is fully Unicode aware I'd guess that the glitch may not be too difficult to correct.

Sorry if I'm bumping, but I think it's relevant...

I already added to the list of bugs and I will fix it when I have some time to work on playlist tree.

I used playlist_tree in foobar 0.83 with usefulness.

But recently I changed into 0.9x, I found now-playing query doesn't work with my config....

Here is my query code used.

Label : @playing<$upper([%artist%][ :. %album%])>
Query : artist IS @playing<%artist%> OR album artist IS @playing<%artist%>

what changed in 0.9 version??? Isn't above code available in 0.9???

I'll wait a reply...

Sorry for my poor English. Thanks...^^

Hi,
I'm unsure whether my problem has its origin in foo_playlist_tree, anyways here we go:
I've been using foo_playlist_tree v2.2b2 to show me my playback history using this code (in the format field):

Code: [Select]
$substr(%last_played%,9,10)'.'$substr(%last_played%,6,7)'.'$substr(%last_played%,1,4) '(@format<%_foldercount%>)'|%artist% - %title% '('$substr(%last_played%,12,16)')'


This has been working very well until I switched to the newest beta version of foobar and the official playback statistics plugin (foo_playcount v 1.2) instead of the unofficial one.
So the new playcount plugin writes a tag called last_played_timestamp instead of the well known last_played tag. According to a post of foosion this tag contains the same information in "Win32 FILETIME" format.
I've been very confused about this until I found out that I still can use %last_played% (although there is only a last_played_timestamp) to get the date in the old format (2006-07-24 12:58:14 instead of 127982122941718750).
This works very well in foo_ui_columns and foo_uie_trackinfo. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work in foo_playlist_tree. Did I miss something? 

Anyways as I am already posting on this forum, I would like to thank all the developers and the community for making foobar what it is. 

Cheers

//edit

OK I got it working now.

Hi there. Wonderful Plugin!

My Question: Is it possible to "rebuild" the function "by directory structure" from foo_uie_albumlist ?
I tried it with %directoryname% in the Format field, but it goes up 1 level only :/

i have a few features requests that may be pretty easy to add.
could there be an option to disable drag and drop within the playlist tree?
in other parts of foobar, when you use the right mouse button to drag files outside foobar, it works in other applications that support drag and drop like winrar, burrrn, nero, etc. can this behaviour be replicated with the tree?

I'm doing this Query: (just as example)

Label:
Code: [Select]
LP - 5000 - @format<%_itemcount%>

Source:
Code: [Select]
NOT play_counter MISSING

Format:
Code: [Select]
%play_counter%|%title% - %artist%



What i want is something like that as Format:
Format:
Code: [Select]
%play_counter% - @format<%_itemcount%>|%title% - %artist%


But this gives me only folders like
? - 1
? - 2

Can't the items be counted for the subfolders?
It's the same with @format<%_play_length%> which works also in the "Label" but not in "Format"

Code: [Select]
%play_counter% - @format<%_itemcount%>|%title% - %artist%


You need to quote the @format<> so that it doesnt get evaluated until it is all populated.  Something along the lines of the following:

Code: [Select]
%play_counter% - @quote<@format<%_itemcount%>>|%title% - %artist%

Ahh, thanks a lot. Works fine now.
I love this plugin.
but there is still one qeustion unanswered about it.
In the version for 0.8.3 i could do a Query using the system_date. This seems liek not working anymore. Any chance to get this feature back?

i personally tag all my various artist albums with a VARIOUS tag. this way, when making the format for a query i use $if(%various%,do_this,otherwise_do_this)

some people use an albumartist tag. but since i already have a tag called ARTIST, and a tag called ALBUM, this info would just redundant and create more work than is otherwise needed. that and a tag called albumartist really does not describe the exact nature of what its purpose is to begin with.

I would highly recommend the albumartist tag:

1. Often enough i have various artists albums that have an global artist. Example: Mix albums where Album Artist is "Dj Bla Bla".

2. The field remapping since foobar 0.9

3. You have no more work than with a varioustag

I upgraded this morning, and did not crash or have handle leaks.  Were you crashing or did you just having handle leaks when you exited?

Does it happen everytime or is there some other pattern to it that you can discern?

Thanks

Does the playlist tree save the querys created automatically?

I have noticed a few times I have started foobar and all my queries have vanished.

The auto save feature was added in 2.2beta0.

Great plugin!

I have one question tho.

I use the "sort by artist" - view and I like it alot. But, when i double click a folder, lets say Bruce Springsteen, i want my Columns playlist to order the songs by album, not by artist. The reason for this is that my whole playlist looks like shiet when i order by artist. Is this possible?

Thx /zoddic the foo-noob

Weird, like I said I have only had it happen to me a couple of times. I start up foobar and all my querys are gone.

I am using the latest version.
