ahh, thanks. I knew that you use %path_sort% for sort format, but wasn't sure what to put in the group format.

I have set my ELPlaylist as followed:


Now i want to know if it is possible to get the Play Image in the group header blinking once per second.
I don't know if and how it is possible to make the group header available in the "Per Second" section...
Can anyone give an advice?

That list sure looks good - well done!

How on earth have you made the image spread over the group header, the track items and below?

Per Second in Group Header is not available (big shame ...)

I feared it still...

You mean the background image?
I've set ELPlaylist to pseudo transparent. The background image is placed in the panel stack splitter the ELPlaylist is inserted in.

Hello

I'd like to cycle my images. This is my code which I can use in the 'per second' section in el playlist or pss

Code: [Select]
$puts(art.path1,$if3($findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*Front*.jpg)),$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg))))
$puts(art.path2,$if3($findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*Back*.jpg)),$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg))))
$puts(art.path3,$if3($findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*CD*.jpg)),$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg))))
$puts(art.path4,$if3($findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*Inlay*.jpg)),$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg))))


$select($add($mod($div(%playback_time_seconds%,5),4),1),

$imageabs(0,0,$sub(%_width%,0),$sub(%_height%,0),$get(art.path1),,0,255,)
,
$imageabs(0,0,$sub(%_width%,0),$sub(%_height%,0),$get(art.path2),,0,255,)
,
$imageabs(0,0,$sub(%_width%,0),$sub(%_height%,0),$get(art.path3),,0,255,)
,
$imageabs(0,0,$sub(%_width%,0),$sub(%_height%,0),$get(art.path4),,0,255,)
)

My most common scenario is Front, Back, CD, Inlay images, but very often I don't have an inlay image or have more than one and it becomes very messy. The value 5 determines the cycle period in seconds, the value 4 the sources.
Is there an elegant way to solve this with variables - to cycle any image available.

You're right.
Incremental search doesn't work here at all!
Ctrl+f does work though.

I again have a little problem.

I played around with ELPlaylist to get a new playlist style and wanted to display the cover art in the TrackList section when the group is expanded, in the group header section when the group is collapsed.

Now i used $imageabs() but it gives a very ugly image in the tracklist:


With $drawimage() i get this:


But $drawimage() slows down seeking and scrolling in playlist...
I haven't detected the same behaviour in the group header, but in group header the image is only half-sized compared with the tracklist.

Is it a known bug?
Or is a workaround out there?

EDIT:
Strange, when i set the top of the image below the first row in the tracklist, $imageabs() works fine.
But i want to place it on the top of the tracklist...

Unfortunately not for me. If I type something in the box there is always (eg) search:a (not found). 
Everything is ok - I didn't figure out how the search is working.

I thought it's searching for any word in the group header, but actually it's looking from first letter to the next one.

Sorry

First of all, thanx for the nice ELPlaylist!

I´m using Foobar2000 v0.9.6.1 with Br3tt´s theme and works almost well.
Thanx for all developers of Foobar2000 and all the nice components. Nice work!!!
Although thanx for Br3tt too, for his nice work too.

But now my problem: albums that I have twice a time, as flac (as cdimage, older ones are wavpack or ape too) and as mp3 (or ogg, m4a, aac, wma, etc.) are shown as one album sorted by tracknumbers with alternating flac- and mp3-file.

Example:

Album A
track1.flac
track1.mp3
track2.flac
track2.mp3
track3.flac
track3.mp3
...
...

Album B
track1.flac
track1.mp3
track2.flac
track2.mp3
track3.flac
track3.mp3
...
...

It´s a little bit boring to hear such an album. All songs are played twice. 


What must I do to sort and group it this way:

Album A
Codec A
track1.flac
track2.flac
track3.flac
...
...

Album A
Codec B
track1.mp3
track2.mp3
track3.mp3
...
...

Album B
Codec A
track1.flac
track2.flac
track3.flac
...
...

Album B
Codec B
track1.mp3
track2.mp3
track3.mp3
...
...

I don´t know the correct syntax to group and sort the way I want. Where can I found more information of possible placeholders and the right order of them, for formating my playlist?

I assume, you have your mp3 and flacs in seperate folders.
Than do the following:
Right-click on the playlist, choose --> settings --> grouping and enter the 'group format': $directory_path(%path%)

But this will end up in a playlist where every album is shown up twice.

In my opinion the better choice would be to create different playlists for each codec.

EDIT:
Corrected wrong pattern.

EDIT2:
Btw. has anyone a solution for or an idea about my problem mentioned HERE ?

Using BR3T's IZIBA config. some weird stuff is happening.  When I play an album everything goes out of order... by this I mean the list is still in order but foobar plays track 3 after 1 then it plays 2, then 5.... Just randomly choosing tracks and ignoring the order I put them in.  Can anybody help? Is this problem even related to this component?

Essentially I want tracks to play in the order I placed them.

Thanks for the component it looks amazing.

Has nothing to do with ELPlaylist but with your playback order.
Seems that it is set to 'random' or 'shuffle' mode.
You have to set it to 'default'.
But you've better asked this question in IBIZA thread...

Ah, thank you for this workaround
I'll try it immediately.

EDIT:
Yes, it works.
I'm so glad 
Thanks again

Hi guys,

I'm struggling with one thing and to be honest i have no idea how to deal with it.

My album list looks like here:


I want to merge those songs into one group, but i don't know how :/

My actual group format is:
Code: [Select]
%album artist% | $if($not(%album%),%title%,%album% | %discnumber%)


and sort format:
Code: [Select]
%album artist% - %date% - %album% - %discnumber% - %tracknumber% - %title%


All albums are in separate folders, i have no idea why it looks like that. Can anyone help please?
The best way for me would be sorting by path of albums.
yup, that's me ;)

There are different artists in your album but i think you don't have an ALBUM ARTIST tag set to your files.
If you want to have the files in one group then tag your files with an album artist.

If you strictly want to group your files by directory then use %directoryname% as group format and %path_sort% as sort format.

Hi !

Is there any way to get "art_path" filesize ? Something like $filesize(art_path)...
Thanks

%_filesize% exists in foobar in native

need to be formated in Mbyte ? code this :

$div(%_filesize%,1048576)'.'$num($muldiv($mod(%_filesize%,1048576),100,1048576),2)' MB'

HTH

But that's only applicable to the audio file itself. I wanna display the album art file size..

In SCPL, if I pressed the "Next" button (Playback->Next), it would play the next track and also select it. With ELPlaylist, it doesn't automatically select it. Is there anyway to get it to function like SCPL did?
