It’s called Kameleon because it can change into anything you want it to be. It’ll take you a while to find all the features but the beauty is you can turn things on or off to suit your style 

This really has taken a phenomenal amount of coding and checking by Br3tt and it is just magnificent… Br3tt you can be very, very proud of this one and I’ve enjoyed every minute of testing it too

Kameleon, enjoy...

Is it possible that the config eats up a lot of CPU cycles? It's taking like 70-80% of the CPU cycles on my C2D E6600.

Edit: Sorry it's more like 50-60%. The rest is used by other processes.

Edit2: I think I might have fixed it although I'm not sure exactly how I did it

Edit3: Are there any Vista compatible compilations of foo_trackinfo and foo_skip? Because I get warnings every time I open foobar.

for me (intel E6850) CPU is between 0 and 2%, your initial problem is certainly due to another application.

afaik trackinfo_Mod (and not trackinfo which is not used in this config) and foo_skip are compatible with Vista too, btw i use XP SP3. Do you use the components from my site??

1.  Uses AVS from Winamp installation folder, if you have it. It eat low CPU

2. Install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9b2da534-3e03-4391-8a4d-074b9f2bc1bf&displaylang=en)

3. Sorry for my bad English

PS Falstaff, its the best foobar config i've ever see:)
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: Andu on 2009-02-15 01:44:00
Yea I got the package and copied those.

And those other applications would be hogging the CPU through the foobar process? Wouldn't the taskmanager associate those cycles with the process causing them?

Ok I solved the trackinfo problem. The ddl was there but unused so I removed that one. But the foo_skip.dll from the package is still not loading.

Code: [Select]
Failed to load DLL: foo_skip.dll
Reason: This component is not compatible with this version of Windows and needs to be recompiled with a newer version of the foobar2000 SDK; please contact the author of this component to obtain an updated version of this component.

Could some one explain the syntax for

kameleon_coverart_path = music folder
kameleon_artistart_path = music folder
kameleon_coverart_filename = folder.jpg
kameleon_artistart_filname = artist.jpg (and not %artist%.jpg !)
kameleon_default_width = 864
kameleon_default_height = 630
kameleon_playcount_max = 100
kameleon_left_panel_width = 320
kameleon_disable_filetype_info = 0
kameleon_cycle_bg = 1

if these are defaults there not working as they should as this would suggest the cover art is in the same place as the music.

Post by: felimz on 2009-02-15 06:30:18
Incredible skin, Br3tt! You kick ass. However, I have a few questions:

-Which .png do you have assigned to the "Cover is loading" Image on the Chronflow plugin? Is it the one labeled nocover.png which I assumed must be used in the "No Cover Image" field?

-Why can't the optional left panel be made thinner than 320 pixels?

-Is there a way to resize the height of the window that pops up when one clicks "chronflow" or the playlist viewer? I'd like Kameleon to default to the playlist viewer, but I do not need the window to be as big.

-Is there a way to force the Kameleon background to NOT show album art in the background, like in Curacao? Edit: I figured this one out: Force Wallpaper > Do Not "hide panel on startup."

-The background cycler variable does not do anything for me. It always displays  the default wallpaper wp1.jpg (not the other ones, like the grey one, the blue one, etc.)

I'd appreciate your input.

That initial big CPU hit is Chronflow loading the cover art images into memory, my CPU initially runs 70+% but will drop down to 10% when everything is loaded and running, Kameleon is very well optimized. Tweaking the Chronflow settings can help but unfortunately it's a resource hog. But pretty

Hmmm... you show me the Cover pic bug and talk about artistart filename ???!!

so the problem is about covers :

kameleon_coverart_path      : default (=music folder) / specified path (i.e: C:/covers/) (be careful, specified path must close with a '/')
kameleon_coverart_filename   : i.e: folder.jpg / folder.* / %album%.jpg / etc ...

if nothing setted in Foo_exvar, it search for folder.jpg images in the music folder, is it your case ? does it happen with all covers CD or only some of them ?

I use Discogs for my artist art, and then use %DISCOGS_ARTIST_ID%_1.jpg for my artist image. However, It doesnt show up

I have kameleon_artistart_path set to E:/foobar2000/images/Artist/, and kameleon_artistart_filename to %DISCOGS_ARTIST_ID%_1.jpg.

This should work I guess?

foo-exvar do not handle variables like %var%, except %artist%, %album%, %album artist% be cause i have tweaked the code in K to handle them.

so all other %% can't work without some coding ... Same for all titleformat functions (like $replace(...) for example), they are not supported by foo_exvar.

i'll add this info in the INSTALLATION NOTES. (done)

the more white it can be is to use a full white wallpaper as background :

What i mean is that maybe you should try something different. Too much stuff, bells and whistles. I suppose you'll say 1) i do it for my personal needs or 2) If you don't like it don't use.  But the thing is that not many "waste" so much time to give configs to the community so maybe you could experiment with something else.

First of all - another great config  Thanks for great work

Nevertheless I've got a few problems with Kameleon

1. CPU usage - over 60% sometimes (c2d@3.2Ghz so I don't think that hardware is the case). I've noticed it jumps so high only in two moments - when lyrics or now playing panel is active (even worse when both)

2. Playlist switcher should be in the left panel (wishlist:P), I'm using it a lot and it's somehow weird now

3. Chronoflow - viewing by playlists? (It's probably more for developer of chronoflow;))

Thanks for the great config! 

I have a question:

I want to set the cover file name like this:
If there is a file named %album%.jpg, then use that one, if not, use the file folder.jpg
Is it possible?

& I also receive this warning when start foobar: "Original Winamp or some other Winamp emulator has been detected. This can result in wrongly reported data, nonfunctional plugins and other conflicts, be warned." How to fix it?

Thanks in advanced

Thank you very much, Brett! Kameleon is really amazing.  Visually stunning, everything worked out in great detail. The new left, right and "now playing" panels are a big improvement (I didn't think that was even possible) over your last configs. 

Now some constructive criticism: 
In my opinion, Album List and Playlist Switcher could be implemented in a better way. Currently they open in a panel roughly 600x300 big. Ideally, this should be something like 300x600 because both AL and PS can have many rows and don't need too much space horizontally.
I suggest that the panel for AL and PS has the same size as the left panel and appears directly above it. This would be a nice combination of Ibiza (position) and Curacao/Kameleon (functionality). The buttons to show AL/PS could be moved to the right of the play/pause, etc buttons.
For my needs that would be perfect because when I browse playlists or AL, I am anyway more interested in what happens in ELPlaylist than the visuals of the left panel.

Sure, I read the whole thread before reporting. I have not even set a custom variable for the album art. About 50% of the time (it decides always when I start foobar) it works, 50% it doesn't. When I find a common property (probable of the resized cover image, I suppose) I will report.

Artistart issue: I just read the drawback of foo_exvar, that it is not capable of reflecting my artist art naming scheme for your theme:
Folder: $replace(%path%,%directoryname%\%filename_ext%,)

Just a small question - the style settings for Album List are inside ColumnsUI settings. Everytime I import one of your fcl's, the settings are reset to white bg/black Tahoma font (defaults).
Is it a problem with ColumnsUI/Album List, or is it your config is set with defaults for Album List?

here, CPU is around 2 or 4 % with all panels (Vis, Spe ...) visible ! so K cannot be responsible ...

BUT if you use Chronflow, on track change, CPU can grows to 70% or 80% or over before going down to normal values (2% or 4%),
SO, it is a Chronflow issue already known by Chronflow users. To optimize this, be sure that you have READ and set the Chronflow performance panel as discribed on my site (http://br3tt.free.fr/html/K/index.htm)
If you have a low/old CPU, just do not use Chronflow panel ...

must work, my personnal needs for artist path are similar to yours, be sure you have the good path, not space add too much?

my settings are :

(http://xs136.xs.to/xs136/09070/foo_exvar_set271.png)

just replace the path value by your.

Be sure that your artists photo are named %artist%.jpg like you say it to me (ex: Pink floyd.jpg)

Folder: $replace(%path%,%directoryname%\%filename_ext%,)
Filename: folder.jpg
Is there any chance you might include this (I hope often used) convention to store the artist image in the folder hierarchy one level above the album art?

yep, i'll try to add support for common functions like $replace and for some variables like those mentionned  ... i may need your help to test this new fcl

try this fcl (http://br3tt.free.fr/files/K/kameleon_1.0b2.fcl) file to see if it works now... *waits for feedback*

sorry, $replace(...) inside foo_exvar not supported

I use Discogs for my artist art, and then use %DISCOGS_ARTIST_ID%_1.jpg for my artist image. However, It doesnt show up

I have kameleon_artistart_path set to E:/foobar2000/images/Artist/, and kameleon_artistart_filename to %DISCOGS_ARTIST_ID%_1.jpg.

This should work I guess?

try this fcl file : http://br3tt.free.fr/files/K/kameleon_1.0b3.fcl (http://br3tt.free.fr/files/K/kameleon_1.0b3.fcl), %DISCOGS_ARTIST_ID% support added ... *waits for feedback*

first of all, awesome skin, brett! it's one of best skin ever made for any music player, and by this one, you moved standards of making an awesome skin.
my question : why doesn't my foobar shows artist image? i already read tutorial and did everything as it should been done, and read this whole article, but no go.
i created "ArtistArt" folder where are all my artist photos, in kameleon_artistart_path, my values are :  D:/MZLV/glazba/ArtistArt/, and in kameleon_artistart_filename, my values are : %artist%.jpg. I tried to change to artist.jpg, but still nothing. How does my artist art path should look like? Cheers


Fantastic config! 
Artist picture doesn't work here also!

kameleon_artistart_path    J:/mp3/artists/
kameleon_artistart_filename    %performer%*.*

I tried %performer%.* and %Performer%*.* and %PERFORMER%*.* and so on, but nothing.
I need help!

Maybe I'm totally off, but isn't in the windows path always a backslash, so it would be "J:\mp3\artists\". At least that is how it works for me.

I wondered about that in the readme, but then I already had copy pasted the paths and it worked.

must work, my personnal needs for artist path are similar to yours, be sure you have the good path, not space add too much?

my settings are :

(http://xs136.xs.to/xs136/09070/foo_exvar_set271.png)

just replace the path value by your.

Be sure that your artists photo are named %artist%.jpg like you say it to me (ex: Pink floyd.jpg)


thanx for help, but im 100% positive there's no any space between, before or after the titled path for filename or path.
anyway, check this, i can't see any failure why it wouldn't work but it still doesn't work :S

You are missing a backslash at the end of the path. there is an explicit warning about that inside instructions.

It was solved by updating Lyrics Show Panel to the latest version as explained in the post he quoted. Actually there are a lot of components which aren't up to date in the package. I don't think all of them have performance updates since then but some might and others might solve other issues. If you could provide a component list like for Ibiza that would make it much easier to update the components that Kameleon uses

Edit: As a matter of fact it improved performance on my system by a lot too.

1. for the scale problem in the CD case, please, show me a screenshot of your foo_exvar settings panel + an example of path where your cover is stored (and filename used), and send me the image cover used

Hello Brett, I'd like to recommend a few tweaks to Kameleon:

1. Change "disc" to "Disc," as in "disc 1/2," just to make it look nicer. It's easy enough to change on my own though, but some users might want this.
2. Consider changing the track title font from size 7 to 8. When viewing tracks with asian characters, size 7 font is too small to show the characters nicely, and when I changed it to 8, it looks fine.
3. Change the panels in the right panel to be square in size. As in your earlier configs, artist images were always shown as squares, and thus since Ibiza I've been saving the artists as square images. Now, to show them correctly I'd have to resave them all as rectangles. Otherwise, I just changed "nokeepaspect" to "keepaspect."
4. Is there a way to make Kameleon show the last playlist used? I could do this in Curacao, but when I open foobar with Kameleon, it goes to my default library playlist.
5. Can the very topmost panel bar (path info of track and google/audioscrobbler search buttons) be hidden? I don't use that stuff so much, so it would make more space on the screen for the playlist.

Thank you very much for your consideration! And again, awesome, awesome, AWESOME job on Kameleon. I love it.

anyway, i have another question, it isn't connected to some problem, just for info

when kameleon count track "as listened", in meaning of time that has to pass to count track as listened? before i use "kameleon", i used "foo smooth", and it count track as listened after one minute, when does kameleon count? if it's whole track, is there any option to change it? i have huge library, and i wan't to listen random tracks all the time, so i often don't listen to whole track, but to half of it, but then i wan't my track to be marked as "listened" after one minute or half track pass. is there any option to do so, because in my right panel, i use stat so i want to build my chart with fav songs i find out recently and i play it more often then tracks i play before.

i prefer keep it lower case.

huumm, i'll see, that right it is too small for asian chars.

3. Change the panels in the right panel to be square in size. As in your earlier configs, artist images were always shown as squares, and thus since Ibiza I've been saving the artists as square images. Now, to show them correctly I'd have to resave them all as rectangles. Otherwise, I just changed "nokeepaspect" to "keepaspect."


no, since Curacao, i only use landscape image for artists, it's quite better. Ibiza belong to past now

4. Is there a way to make Kameleon show the last playlist used? I could do this in Curacao, but when I open foobar with Kameleon, it goes to my default library playlist.


it does like all other skins , if not for you, it is due to foobar settings, not due to Kameleon... Check your settings in the foobar Prefs.

5. Can the very topmost panel bar (path info of track and google/audioscrobbler search buttons) be hidden? I don't use that stuff so much, so it would make more space on the screen for the playlist.


i will make this possible by using an Extended variable infoo_exvar in a next build. ok.

I believe that you can change when a track's playcount is updated through Play Count Mod (preferences > tools > play count mod). There's a slider bar called "counter update settings" that can be changed to reflect when a song is updated based on the percentage of track that's been played. I have mine set at 50%.

Hope this helps.

"Playback Statistics Custom" settings or "Play Counter" (the official playback stats plugin) settings. But do not use both, "Play Counter" store information in a database, and "Playback Statistics Custom" in the music file. Play counter do not work well when statistics tags are present in the music file.

Just tried it: so far the bug did not occur any more, I restarted the player 10 times using different albums where the bug occured before. So for me, the problem seems to be fixed. When it occurs again I will report.

And thanks for switching to landscaped artist pictures. I was right for all the years

Hmm.. I tried you new .fcl - unfortunately, it doesn`t help  it appears rarely, meseems.
Some new details: the bug appears from time to time 50:50 and only when start-restart foobar - it means that bad scalling image shows just after start foobar, before playing music, and then it doesn`t disappear until foobar being restart. (some times needed a couple restarts or more)
...and then cover image is Ok after foobar start, it is Ok further, even I change covers many times, as opposed to first case

i download required component to show playlist queue list, but it seems he doesn't work with kameleon (it works fine on other skins), so in future, it would be nice to add this feature

Well, after import fcl and first restart, the bug appeared again, but then during the 20`s restarts I didn`t see its.
Let`s see that happens further, I`ll immediately tell you.
By the way, I use 0.9.5.6 version, and Windows Vista if it`s important of course...

Yes, I use the last version 0.3.6.2alfa of Panel Stack Splitter

Br3tt, can you make a "sticker" like the mp3 and flac stickers for the cd cases you made in Graphics Browser, which will appear on multiple cds  with their number? for example: #1, #2 etc.. Do you like the idea? I have many multiple cd albums (with the same cover) and in graphics Browser they seem the same..

you have to define before the playlist to use for the Queue, have you done it ? (in the menu of the foobar Toolbars : Playback -> Playback Queue Viewer)

Any word on whether the height of the coverflow/playlist/album browser can be changed and/or be kept fixed?

As shown in the screenshot below, the height of this pane is 40% of the skin, and only about 175px is really needed to use coverflow/playlist/album browser.

Thanks for the fast FCL revisions! You kick ass!

Are these two buttons backwards? It seems that they indicate the opposite of what they do.

After playing around with Kameleon a little longer I've decided its awesome.
Curacao was great, but this just beautiful.
However I have 2 feature requests

1. Under the Library menu, i am missing the rescan library option.
I'd love to see that added to your menu's.

2. A third option on the aliencat background switcher to show Album Art, Artist Pic or Default Bg's
I've got some large album pics that look really good as backgrounds. Plus some artist's have pretty ugly mugs

curious, anyone here on windows 7 x64 and having an issue with chronflow? I have the latest ATI beta drivers and prior to that it was the default windows 7 drivers, and chronflow keeps throwing the unable to get hardware accelerated pixelformat or whatever it says. I guess I won't be using that feature. other than that you have outdone yourself again Falstaff!

you should consider hosting your files on rapidshare. you can create a free 'collector's account' and host your files there. when people download your files, you get points. you can exchange the points for a premium account.

as popular as your skins are, you could get a lot of points very fast

With the 0.9.6 line of foobar it reloads the library automatically when changes to the library folders occur.

4. Is there a way to make Kameleon show the last playlist used? I could do this in Curacao, but when I open foobar with Kameleon, it goes to my default library playlist.


file -> startup playlist -> last playlist

(at least it works with my foo:))


I searched and searched and could not find this menu sequence.
Of course I can find "File" But when I click it I find no such option as "Startup Playlist. Where is it exactly? 

Fantastic config Falstaff!

Any word on whether the height of the coverflow/playlist/album browser can be changed and/or be kept fixed?

As shown in the screenshot below, the height of this pane is 40% of the skin, and only about 175px is really needed to use coverflow/playlist/album browser.


I would have to agree with this, the most playlists I have at once is about five, and there's a lot of extra space. It would be awesome if you could add an option to change the height of the playlist.
Thanks Brett

For example. if an artist name contains a / , let's say Ac/dc then i use this variable to search for the cover

How can I convert my ibiza/curacao line to work with kameleon?
Code: [Select]
C:\Program Files\foobar2000\covers\$replace(%artist%,/,,?,,) - %album%.jpg


it worked in Curaçao, but then again, extended variable wasn't in use then...... can i in some way, get this to work in kameleon


again br3tt, i was sceptical at kameleon at first, but now i loooove it. your finest creation ever

Very nice config Br3tt, thank you.

It only takes 10 minutes to config Kameleon for my system, wow.


But I have a question for my understanding.
It seems that the bg pictures in Kameleon look sharper than in Curacao. Is there a different way in drawing or do I need new glasses?

4. Is there a way to make Kameleon show the last playlist used? I could do this in Curacao, but when I open foobar with Kameleon, it goes to my default library playlist.


file -> startup playlist -> last playlist

(at least it works with my foo:))


I searched and searched and could not find this menu sequence.
Of course I can find "File" But when I click it I find no such option as "Startup Playlist. Where is it exactly? 

Fantastic config Falstaff!

oh and... Is there any way to copy different parts of code between your configs? We can copy panels but pasting them into another configuration sucks  Would like to have left part of Kameleon combined with the right part of Curacao

oh, me again.
i have another info question, this time connected with playlist queue viewer.

i download required component to show playlist queue list, but it seems he doesn't work with kameleon (it works fine on other skins), so in future, it would be nice to add this feature


Do you mean Playback Queue Viewer (foo_pqview) ? It works like a charm with K.


yeah, i paste same component in component folder, and when i click "add to playback queue" it doesn't show any list.


you have to define before the playlist to use for the Queue, have you done it ? (in the menu of the foobar Toolbars : Playback -> Playback Queue Viewer)


well, it's accepting and playing songs in right order i set to play, but there's no list to see which one is next.

edit: i get it by myself. pqviewer makes one playlist where he stores queue tracks

i've specified my path and it is:

kameleon_artistart_path = G:\foo\artist\
kameleon_artistart_filname = %artist%.jpg

so can anyone help? few pages earlier someone has the same problem but no one has post a reply.

take care, you have forgotten a 'e' in kameleon_artistart_filename, and if not enough to make it works just replace '\' by '/' and all will be perfect!

kameleon_artistart_path = G:/foo/artist/

2. Consider changing the track title font from size 7 to 8. When viewing tracks with asian characters, size 7 font is too small to show the characters nicely, and when I changed it to 8, it looks fine.
...


done for the next build , here is a little preview ... btw i can't fix the size in the scroll text panel.

Br3tt. The reason he messed it up is that you make the same typo on your default variable list on your website:

kameleon_coverart_path = music folder
kameleon_artistart_path = music folder
kameleon_coverart_filename = folder.jpg
kameleon_artistart_filname = artist.jpg (and not %artist%.jpg !)
kameleon_default_width = 864
kameleon_default_height = 630
kameleon_playcount_max = 100
kameleon_left_panel_width = 320
kameleon_disable_filetype_info = 0
kameleon_cycle_bg = 1

You may fix this typo to stop confusion. Thanks.

Hi Br3tt, I've got the exact same problem. I've got all my artist pics in the album folder of the artist just like I do with the folder pics. In curacao it worked with the code nikolai4ik uses but now in Kameleon I can't get it to work.
Also in Curacao you included the option of hiding the top bar. That option isn't available anymore in Kameleon, is it possible to include this?

Keep up the good work, Br3tt.

For the last time, functions do not work with foo_exvar, learn to tag you %artist% tags to be free of this or find a better way to store artists pics... the best is a unique folder that contains all the artists images named %artist%.jpg (ex: Jimi Hendrix.jpg, ... ). Other way, modify the code in K to bypass foo_exvar uses...

Yep, i'll add an extended varaible to allow to hide/show the top panel (path)

Tell a lie is there anything you can do to make the custom menu's auto close instead of staying open once you clicked them?

If it can not be done why not have the same menu system as Curaçao where it was a button that unfolded when needed sure it's gray but at least it auto closes.

You mean the whole playlist/quicksearch panel? I guess that would significantly streamline usage for people that navigate through their library that way. =) Let's hope our lobbying does not fall on deaf ears. Br3tt's got a lot of requests, though...We'll see.

All,

Maybe it's just me and this is REAL basic... Doesn't apply to Br3tt specifically...

When I go back into tag and rename after playing songs my tags are all messed up.

How do you use the "play count" and "ratings" without foobar messing up your tags? I find myself disabling these things because it wipes out hours of hard work.  Do you folks edit the way your tags are updated within foobar? Thoughts?

Thanks, Casey

This scaling bug is still happening with FLC 1.0c. No idea what is triggering it.

(http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/8408/bugbk2.jpg)


That is mostly caused by some dll files. You can try to delete all your dll files and just use the components given by Br3tt.

Amazing config - thanks!!

Quick question on Chronflow - is there any way to get it to display the first JPG it finds in an album folder to use for album artwork, i.e. *.jpg? I have this working well for all other album art splitters except Chronflow... if anyone knows how to get this working it would make my day!

Also, I recently installed the foo_discogs (http://www.discogs.com/help/forums/topic/147021) component and am having trouble downloading artist/album artwork. When I use the context menu on a track or album, the "Update Album/Artist Art" command is always grayed out... in the foo_discogs Configuration > Album/artist art tab, I have "Fetch" checked for both Album & Artist artwork, as well as "Fetch all available art" yet no artwork is being downloaded. I have tried using the "Write tags" command (the only one not grayed out besides "Configure tag mappings" and "configuration") and the album artwork is indeed present in the preview page - I just have no way to download it to the album folder! What am I missing? Any help is much appreciated - thanks again!

Not sure if this helps - but it seems that once I added the Artist Artwork variables to Extended Variables, I started experiencing this same scaling issue w/Album artwork in the main lefthand splitter. I added these 2 lines to Extended Variables:

kameleon_artistart_path - N:/Music/---- Artist Art ----/
kameleon_artistart_filename - %artist%.jpg

Restarted foobar and while the Artist Artwork now worked fine, the album artwork had the scaling issue several people have previously mentioned. So I removed these 2 lines from exvar, restarted foobar, and the issue went away... hope this helps in some way to track down the issue.

2 pages back i asked


For example. if an artist name contains a / , let's say Ac/dc then i use this variable to search for the cover

How can I convert my ibiza/curacao line to work with kameleon?

Code: [Select]
C:\Program Files\foobar2000\covers\$replace(%artist%,/,,?,,) - %album%.jpg



it worked in Curaçao, but then again, extended variable wasn't in use then...... can i in some way, get this to work in kameleon




anyone who can figure this out . is it possible to somehow make it compatible with extended variables
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: bubi jackson on 2009-02-17 10:23:04
look at this

For the last time, functions do not work with foo_exvar, learn to tag you %artist% tags to be free of this or find a better way to store artists pics... the best is a unique folder that contains all the artists images named %artist%.jpg (ex: Jimi Hendrix.jpg, ... ). Other way, modify the code in K to bypass foo_exvar uses...

nice config really! I finally decided to change my old one, as it is based on panels ui, and new foobar versions have so many tasty features

Now I'm trying to figure out all those new plugins, have some troubles

1. Where is chronoflow part in Kameleon? I removed it, and it seems ok... (it annoyed me with error message on the start, and do not have priviledges to update graphics card drivers).

2. Can I have 3 configs (Kameleon, Curacao and Ibiza) simultaneously and switch them on-the-fly in Preferences? Now when I import a config, all others disappear

3. Besides, I have noticed a strange glitch:
(http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/7608/foobarqjn1.th.png) (http://img7.imageshack.us/my.php?image=foobarqjn1.png)

The now playing text is too large (I had to reduce it from 19 to 6!). It might be due to 120DPI settings for my computer, however, I hope it helps someone.

Again, nice config, thanks!

I guess we're in the same boat.  I wrote about it on page 2 (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=69485&view=findpost&p=615397). Well, the thread is growing really fast!
I tried to do something myself, but the code for this is a lot more complex than in earlier configs. All those panels are closely connected to each other, to ELPlaylist and even some kind of check is performed. Anyway, a lot of code would have to be re-written. If you have the time, Br3tt... I would appreciate it

is it normal that all visualisations stop when you scroll through the ELP-Panel?


They stutter with an intel Q9450. Processor timings go up significantly when you scroll through that panel.


lol!

i have a E6850 with 3.00 Ghz and foobar takes 50% when i scroll through the list!

I think i have found a new Benchmark for my PC! 

And it takes 120 mb ram!

problem is elsewhere, i have the same CPU and when no scroll, i'm under 2%, when scrolling, near 20%

about memory usage, it depends of the playlist size and library size. HERE, i'm near 65000 Kb with a library ~28000 tracks

The same happens with my bug. In fact, the jewel cases shift identically, and the covers contract just the same. So, while the bug is random, the effects are pretty predictable, which might lead to some way to fix it. Who knows?

I think, one of a solution  would be replacing cd cover code from Curacao config, because I have never seen this liitle bug in Curacao before.
I guess it is not so important to see cover inside of CD case or without this one  The special version for Vista users f.e..... before you self will return to Vista

# Quick question on Chronflow - is there any way to get it to display the first JPG it finds in an album folder to use for album artwork, i.e. *.jpg? I have this working well for all other album art splitters in Kameleon except Chronflow... if anyone knows how to get this working it would make my day!

It is impossible as I know, you can only add variables like
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)cover.jpg
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)front.jpg
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)cd.jpg
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)back.jpg
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)%album%.jpg
... and any possible names of covers you have
The simpliest  way is using constant name of covers or use programs for grouping file rename if you have so huge music collection.

(preferably a Foobar component so I can download art while listening to an album)

it doesn`t exist. as far as I know again
By the way, I use Album Art Downloader too with script which automatically saves cover art files into album/artist folder with name "folder.jpg" and problem of Chronflow you are talked above is solved.

You are wrong here.
The possible option is CD Art Display, except latest beta is buggy for me. it is standalone, but integrates into foobar via component.

Got serious Problems here:

When a Song got a "timestamp" like:
<FIRST_PLAYED> : 2009-02-18 12:25:55
<LAST_PLAYED> : 2009-02-18 12:25:55
<PLAY_COUNTER> : 1
<PLAY_STAMP> : 2009-02-18 12:25:55


The "title"-info will promptlydisappear. While playing a song the first time, this happens even within listening to it.

What should i do? Remove play_counter?

which components are you using to save stats ?

- Playback Custom Statistics or Play counter (official stats plugin)

PCS store stats info in the music file TAGs
PC store them in a database and do not affect the music file

go to Prefs --> Tools ---> ...

and be sure you have set them the way you want

Ok, I couldn't wait any longer, so I added Playlist switcher and Album list to the left panel myself. It works the same as in Curacao, without covering parts of ELPlaylist.

Can someone please tell me how i can sort a playlist by track and not by album? I have a playlist with radio streaming locations and it gets very ugly with this type of sorting.


OFF TOPIC, ELPlaylist topic recommended for this. btw here is some help :

right click ion ELPlaylist -> Settings

then

1.modify the default group by order and/or the default sort order

OR

2.add an alternative sort order that you can use by right click contect menu

Very nice!!! How the heck did you pull that off? Now, I wouldn't mind to have it be just half of the left panel (with album art on top) and as a clickable panel, but I am sure that if Br3tt goes that way, he can easily pull it off.

i was displaying the Cd Case in a PSS panel included in another one (Parent) which was integrate in the main PSS one, so 3 level of PSS embedment. I've reduce this # of level to 2 by coding the cd case display in the PSS level 2 and removed the unused level 3

Thanks for the fcl exxecutor, I got two small questions though. You seem to have opted for a non-capitalized playlist for the tracks, could you point me in the direction on how to change them back to capitals cause I can't seem to find it.
Also, how did you get those playlist stats on your playlist switcher?

Pretty kickass temporary implementation until hopefully Br3tt makes this a part of the UI somehow...

Right now I got my numbers at:

(-> Left_Playlists,12,60,296,332)
&
(-> Left_Albumlist,10,56,298,340)

and it works beautifully with Kameleon's default dimensions.

Thanks!!! =)

Note: Could you reupload this left-panel config after Br3tt posts the new Kameleon revision that fixes the cover scaling bug in Vista? Thanks!

just right click on the playlist to enter ELP settings, then go to tab 'field definition' then search the CAPITALIZE entry, and replace 1 by zero to disable it

It's basically %length% and %size%. In the playlist switcher preferences, tick "Use titleformatting" and enter your code.

I had Playcount.dll and playcountstatistics.dll, removed the last one and tried manually removing the time stamps by rightclicking and going to properties.
But nothing happend. Really bad shit, didnt had these problems with older configs from you. 


Still with playcount.dll its the same thing: after aproxximatly one third of having played one song -> song title gets invisible.

I am having what I think is the same problem. When I search, for example "Pink Floyd," the first album that comes up is "A Collection of Dance Songs." This means that it is sorting alphabetically, even though I have all sorting rules to sort albums by date. After I click on "Sort>>preset default," the playlist gets arranged correctly and "The Pipe at the Gates of Dawn" appears first.

I have tried all ways of sorting, but it ain't working. I have also done "Force Sorted," but the search results always get sorted alphabetically. I have even removed /runcmd=Playback/Order/Default from the startup shortcut.

Note: this only occurs on the search results, not on my library autoplaylist.

Thanks for the positive response  I'm definately no PSS pro, that's why I really hope that Br3tt would take over this project.
For now, this is the updated version!

Thanks, man!!! =) Excellent job.

It is playlist switcher option, am I right?
But I want to use Album list panel
I noticed that foobar sorts my music by ARTIST every time, independently that I write in the "sort format".
I just want get sort by album after clicking on Album list, without context menu.

not due to Kameleon or ELP, coz it works fine for me.



Playlist used by Album List Panel is 'Library View' and just the first time the playlist is created, i use context sort menu to apply default preset sort

then when clicking on an artist in Album List, it automatically (Album List Panel Settings!) send tracks of this artist WELL SORTED in the 'Library View' playlist.

check your settings.

i change some things like color and use a playlist switcher on the left and a filter for better search and kick the chronflow, while to slowly...


here 2 screens:

@Freedom-loving
Preferences --> General --> Sort incoming files by: %path_sort%

It seems to work with your ELPlaylist settings, so i guess your music's stored properly

Thanks exxecutor. One last thing and then I'm off your back. How can I add padding settings for the stats on the playlist so they don't stick to the outer right edge of the playlist switcher?


You can experiment with $tab(n) in your playlist switcher code (adds n tabulator characters). For instance:
Code: [Select]
%title%$tab(3)%size%$tab(2)

Another thing you could do is change the width of your playlist switcher. Go to Splitter Settings, select -> Left_Playlists, click Configure, select Playlists and change the width to whatever you like. Note that if you have many playlists and do that, the scrollbar will come into view.

Does anybody know why Chronflow's "Find as you type" is only working in an extra window (Dockable Panels) but not in a PSS in Kameleon?

Another point. In 1.0c5 the cover overlay for the big picture is not working for me, in 1.0c2 everything is fine - chair-foobar-problem?

Maybe you have to update your graphic driver - and use "["codebox"]" for such long text, please.


If someone would like to have the old Ibiza CD-Case, I have modified it.

Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: tedgo on 2009-02-20 12:58:05
@Falstaff

I am looking for a reasonable Auto-Rating mode since cwb_hooks doesn't work anymore (and there is no other solution to get the system date to my knowledge).

So i decided to download your kameleon and "spy out" your solution .

At first, i'm very impressed by your work 
Your kameleon is really fabulous, but:

1.) Rating
You have a clever solution but it has the same problem like all other current ones:
It only considers the time between first played and last played, since there seems to be no other way for that purpose.
Not your fault, but the lack of a function that calls the system date.
If you - the master of configuring foobar  - couldn't find anything reasonable, i'll probably do it without auto-rating as long as it isn't possible to catch the system date.

But has it ever struck you that you have different "autorate.nbdays.sub" variables in Trackinfo mod and ELPlaylist?
That causes a different display of auto-rating (Trackinfo mod substracts 1 playcount all 5 days, ELPlaylist only 1 playcount all 30 days).

And you use Playback Statistics and Playback Custom in your config.
You should renounce Playback Custom, since it updates tags silently (only a proposal ).

If you'd stick on the official Playback Statistics there is another thing:
Have you known that Playback Statistics offers a %played_per_day% field?

You could radical shorten your Auto-Rating code with it if you'd use (with "autorate.nbdays.sub"=30):
Code: [Select]
//$if(%_isplaying%,
    $puts(autorate.add,2)
    $puts(autorate.nbdays.sub,30)
    $puts(daterange,$ifgreater(%play_count%,1,$muldiv(%play_count%,100,$replace(%played_per_day%,.,)),0))
    $puts(fix,$div($get(daterange),$get(autorate.nbdays.sub)))
    $puts(counter,$sub($div(%play_count%,$get(autorate.add)),$get(fix)))
    $puts(rating,$if2($meta(rating),$if2(%rating%,$ifgreater($get(counter),5,5,$ifgreater($get(counter),0,$get(counter),0)))))
    $puts(no.set,$if(%rating%,1,2))
//,)
instead of:
Code: [Select]
//$if(%_isplaying%,

$puts(aa-fp,$year(%first_played%))
$puts(mm-fp,$month(%first_played%))
$puts(jj-fp,$day_of_month(%first_played%))
$puts(aa-lp,$year(%last_played%))
$puts(mm-lp,$month(%last_played%))
$puts(jj-lp,$day_of_month(%last_played%))


  $ifgreater($if2(%rating%,0),0,
$puts(rating,$if2(%rating%,0))
$puts(no.set,1)
  ,

$ifgreater($get(aa-lp),$get(aa-fp),
$ifgreater($get(mm-lp),$get(mm-fp),
$puts(nb.aa,$sub($get(aa-lp),$get(aa-fp)))
$puts(nb.mm,$sub($get(mm-lp),$get(mm-fp)))

$ifgreater($get(jj-lp),$get(jj-fp),
$puts(nb.jj,$sub($get(jj-lp),$get(jj-fp)))
,
$puts(nb.mm,$sub($get(nb.mm),1))
$puts(nb.jj,$add($sub(30,$get(jj-fp)),$get(jj-lp)))
)

,
$puts(nb.aa,$sub($sub($get(aa-lp),$get(aa-fp)),1))
$puts(nb.mm,$add($sub(12,$get(mm-fp)),$get(mm-lp)))

$ifgreater($get(jj-lp),$get(jj-fp),
$puts(nb.jj,$sub($get(jj-lp),$get(jj-fp)))
,
$puts(nb.mm,$sub($get(nb.mm),1))
$puts(nb.jj,$add($sub(30,$get(jj-fp)),$get(jj-lp)))
)
)
,
$puts(nb.aa,0)
$ifgreater($get(mm-lp),$get(mm-fp),
$puts(nb.mm,$sub($get(mm-lp),$get(mm-fp)))
,
$puts(nb.mm,0)
)
$ifgreater($get(jj-lp),$get(jj-fp),
$puts(nb.jj,$sub($get(jj-lp),$get(jj-fp)))
,
$puts(nb.jj,0)
)

)

$puts(autorate.add,2)
$puts(autorate.nbdays.sub,5)

$puts(daterange, $add( $add($mul(365,$get(nb.aa)),$mul(30,$get(nb.mm))),$get(nb.jj)) )
         
$puts(fix,$div($get(daterange),$get(autorate.nbdays.sub)))
$if(%play_counter%,$puts(rating,$div(%play_counter%,$get(autorate.add))),$puts(rating,0))
$puts(rating,$sub($get(rating),$get(fix)))
$if($greater($get(rating),5),$puts(rating,5))
$if($greater(0,$get(rating)),$puts(rating,0))
$puts(no.set,2)
  )
//,)
It should do the same (except rounding errors. But this effects your code too), if i understood your auto-rating purpose right.

2.) Playlist Switcher
It seems that there is a problem with the dimensions of the playlist switcher (maybe...  )
[a href=\"http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=kameleonn9u6.png\" target=\"_blank\"]
And i hope you pardon my blasphemous post... 

EDIT: typo
EDIT2: Inserted a shorter code.
EDIT3: Problem with Playlist Switcher recognized and solved by lowering the height of it (to activate its scrollbar).

I hope this has not been discussed yet, but I have a bug when using Kameleon.

The shortcuts via the letters at the bottom of the playlist do not work for me. I can click the letters, but it doesn't jump to the right spot on the list. I created the autoplaylist as instructed and am using foobar v0.9.6 on a Vista x64 Machine.
I used Curacao before and it worked without any issues!

Any help would be appreciated.

i use only Playback Custom to embed stats in music file tags, official playcount component only use to get the %add% stat info.

While we're on the subject of ratings & statistics... regarding the ratings tool that is underneath ELP (5 "stars" and heart) - I would like to update my config so that it saves the ratings to a database rather than tagging the actual file. Is this possible and/or recommended?
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: tedgo on 2009-02-21 07:26:52
You can do it by changing the command for each button in the trackinfo mod panel.

I currently don't have kameleon installed but look at entries like:
$button(0,0,0,0,16,16,$get(n.image),$get(mh.image)1.png,TAG:SET:rating:1,)

And change this part:
TAG:SET:rating:1

to simply:
1

and you'll have the rating information stored in the playback statistics database instead of the files tags

Can you give more information, how this works? Can I cycle between different artist photos? Is this limited to wallpaper? What do I have to change in Script to access all artist photos? Did I miss some information in your instructions?

yes, it's limited to wallpapers only (not for artist photo ou cover cd).

if # of wp is > 1, then wallpaper will change depending of the active track name (using $CRC32 function as a random function)

Thanks for all the help getting this config tweaked... this is by far the best foobar config yet... One strange thing I have noticed tho is that when I play the first track after opening foobar/Kameleon, it pauses for well over a minute or two, frozen, and I can see in Task Manager that WERFault.exe is using most of the CPU (25% on a quad core). After about a minute or two foobar will unfreeze, the track will start playing and werfault.exe will exit. This has also happened when the 2nd track starts, but never the 3rd or following tracks. Only 1st or 2nd tracks after opening Foobar.

Also, is it normal for this config to use 365MB RAM? That is what it is using on my system - luckily I have 4GB but I still thought that was quite a bit... I am also using Milkdrop2 for my Vis, and only Cover Art above this on left sidebar...

FYI I am running Vista Ultimate SP1 x86 w/4GB PC2-1066 RAM & Q6600 C2Q proc. Any help or other similar experiences would be much appreciated - thanks.

At about 3,000 songs, with Milkdrop and Coverflow enabled, my Kameleon fb2k does not tax more than 100MB RAM out of the system. CPU (Q9450) usage fluctuates from 3% from 7%.

Note: Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit with latest compatible plugins installed, plus ASIO and five DSP's running at all times.

Br3tt,

Are the changes/additions I see on that screen-shot ever going to make it to the official release? Some of those things look pretty nifty (I see a mute button, a quicksearch bar to the left (?), a gorgeous background, and some + -- icons!)?

Mmmm 55090 tracks takes 200mb of memory lol but I do run other plugins like the known memory hog winamp DSP for DFX as the lazy asses at DFX aint made one for foobar.

IF there is a decent DSP plugin for foobar let me know.

Nice additions though, going to be real useful.

I will answer this question, although it is sort of off-topic:

I use (what I think are) five essential foobar plugins: Resampler (PPHS)>>Convolver>>Noise sharpening>>Advanced Limiter>>Tube Sound

That is the actual chain I run, in that order. My modded X-fi has a better frequency response at 24bit 48Khz, so I resample all music accordingly. Then, I convolute the audio from an RMAA impulse response using convolver, which tends to serve as a natural equalizer for my card. Noise sharpening uses a delta function f(x) + f(x)' to heighten peaks, which works quite well...I set this at 50% even though some people use it at different levels for different reasons, like cleaning up pops from vynil rips. Advanced Limiter prevents clipping due to your hardware/software/file setup, so I typically have this component last. Finally, I add a tube sound amp. simulator, which warms up the music quite a bit. I put it after the limiter because tube distortion usually works through sound clipping (although with pleasant results).

I hope this helps...sorry for the digression. But, to tie back into the thread, Foobar2000 plus Kameleon runs at less than 100MB/7% with all of this enabled (including visualizations).

NOTE: I keep compulsively reloading this page waiting for release 1.1! I'm so stoked. =)

Two things I've noticed that you may want to look into, Brett...

1. In the "Info" panel in the left-hand panel set, under "User Info," "Album gain" and "Track gain" both show the "dB" value twice. Example, "Album Gain: -9.11 dB dB." I removed the extra "dB" from the per-second coding for that panel. You may want to change this in the next release of Kameleon.

2. Also, not sure if this is a Kameleon issue or not, but when I add new tracks to the media library then play them for the first time, the playstamp is given the value "2" instead of "1". Any ideas?

Thanks again for your work on this config!

Edit: Actually, I've been noticing with ANY track I play, the playcount is getting updated twice. So a track with a playcount of 2 increases to 4, after being played once. (it should go to 3!)

Falstaff, while you're working on v1.1, have you looked into the problem with foo_input_mslive, I can hardly believe I'm the only one using it? A fix would be greatly appreciated.

And a suggestion, ever considered a own NoCD cover for radio stations, like you did for last.fm, when there is no album art?

it's becauses stats writing are activated in the both stats plugins !!! you have to disable stats wrinting in foo_placount.dll (Prefs -> Tools -> Playcounter, then uncheck the 3 TAGs inthe Tag writing frame)
after, in the settings of Playback Statistics Custom, select where stats have to be written (files or database)

i have explain that in the doc for 1.1, so not available online yet

another thing. are the extended variables different because the artist background isn't working anymore or is it coded that way? Not that I mind it but I just noticed it

my short answer (and btw preview of v1.1 ):

i'm under XP SP3 with 4GB of RAM + C2Duo E6850 + nvidia 8800 GTS

Libray is near 29000 tracks. RAM never go over 100,000 Kb.


That just looks amazing!

I can't configure the  foo_playcount.dll plugin. it does not appear in the preferencesmenu. any help?? thx

I have this same issue as well. There is nowhere for me to configure the PlayCount component either, although I do have the Playback Statistics Custom component config.

Also, I have removed each unnecessary component and left only the components included w/Kameleon and foobar.exe is still using 300+MB RAM and a good amount of CPU as well (anywhere from 8-30% or more during normal use!). When I first open foobar.exe I can watch the process in Task Manager build up RAM and it takes a good 10 seconds or so before I actually see the Foobar window open. As mentioned in my previous post, the first & second tracks played after opening Foobar will sometimes take over a minute before starting the audio and during this minute, foobar appears completely frozen/unusable.

I tried temporarily removing what I thought might be the more CPU/RAM intensive components such as dsp, comserver2, shpeck, & chronflow and CPU usage went down considerably (to about 1-5% instead of 5-25%) but RAM only went down from about 300MB to 235MB, so my only guess is that it is something wrong w/my config. I do have 90,000+ mp3's in my media library, but the only playlist that is active has only 100 or so MP3's in it.

Task Manager with all components active:

Active Components:

Any help with this as well as the PlayCount issue is much appreciated!

There is nothing to configure on Playback Statistics (foo_playcount) except:
Preferences --> Advanced --> Tools
There's no need for something else

After an ATI driver update, I can no longer import fcl's. Is chronflow the problem? For the hell of it, I found a config on Deviant Art that doesn't use chronflow and it imported fine. Otherwise, an import with a chronflow requirement crashes foobar. I'm assuming chronflow is the issue.

So my question is: Is there any way to use your config without a chronflow import requirement?

not a doc addition Andu, all was discribed since the 1st release, but as i see, you'ven't read it the first time too 

B/ Panel Stack Splitter settings (panels that can be shown/hidden on startup)

Default layout display the left panel with 3 mini panels (ART, LYR and SPE) + right panel (collapsed). For your convenience, you can choose which panels to show/hide on startup if these don't match your tastes

1. for the mini-panels in the Left Panel, Right click on the Left Panel header (ART PHO LYR ... SPE) and enter Splitter settings,

then for each panel beggining by "->", you can check or not the 'hide panel on startup' option (restart needed of course coz of startup options )


btw, when i make additions in the doc, i indicate it in the change log ! The next time i'll use highlight effects for you ... 

1.1a :
- album list panel and playlist switcher panel moved to the left panel as mini-panels
- added QuickSearch toolbar always visible at the bottom of the left panel + Quicksearch buttons to look for same ... artist/album/title or genre
- added 2 buttons + and - to collapse/expand groups in the active playlist
- bug fix in Track info panel about db info doubled + some alignement fixes
- added a new button in the playlist header area to hide/show the top panel (Path + Google buttons + Last.FM radio button)
- added a grid dot background for the now playing panel (under scrolling texts)
- added Popups in ELPlaylist on Track mouseover if %comment% exists (display the comment in the popup)
- added Popups in the right Graphical Browsers (artist + album for Cover case mode, artist name for photo mode)
- dropdown menu entries are now transparent
- documentation updated below (popup transparency in ELP, statistics &rating : where to store them? ... ), check chapter D
- tweaks

Erm thx for not being patronizing 

Have you actually checked chapter D? Because after reading the changelog (before downloading the new version) I did. The force wallpaper thing is not mentioned in that chapter.

Just for the heck of it I tried to be fair and ran a string search on both the terms 'force' and 'wallpaper' in your docs too. Neither leads to a passage in the docs that could solve that issue.

But yea the problem is obviously with me

Edit: Oh wait I'm supposed to magically know that there is a new entry in the Panel Splitter Settings or that you've changed a value in there.
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: Falstaff on 2009-02-22 23:07:00
as said, there  is NO new entry !! all was explain in the doc since the beginning, but i see that you don't want to understand... that's a shame ...
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: Andu on 2009-02-22 23:15:47
Oh I understand you perfectly well but you don't seem to understand me.

Once again.

1) The doc does not mention that there is an option to force a wallpaper.
2) The changelog does not mention that such an option was added or that a preexisting option was changed.

So unless you expect every user to know each option by heart and actually review every single panel on every update there is no way in hell anybody can know this. Especially not somebody that doesn't have the time to read every single post in this thread.

But like I said it's obvious that the fault lies with me.

I already solved my problem. Thx for pointing out something that Br3tt already explained ages ago to me.

I was trying to be helpful and point out a flaw in the communication policy but nevermind that. Just forget everything I said and keep on doing things the way they are done now. Just don't wonder if you have to answer these type of questions all the time.

So I was using kameleon_rate_to_db=1 because I didn't want to change the "Date Modified" for my mp3's, but then I noticed that once I moved an album folder from one location to another, the ratings would get lost! So I gave in and changed the above setting back to "0" so that ratings get tagged in the file... however, now when I rate an mp3, the tags are lost, at least in the Vista Windows Explorer view as well as in the dbPowerAmp tab in file properties:

First 2 tracks were rated with default setting (in Tag, not database):

normally %artist% added after the %title is %album artist% tag filled and different from the %artist% tag, or if there is no group header en your ELP.


BUT, it seem to be a bug and now i always fdisplay %artist%

i'll fix that asap.

In order to show you must deselect "prevent going outside of display" in settings/misc.

However I have a problem. When i move cursor over left panel, it is constantly updating-reloading images, which results in annoying flickering. I made a small video to demonstrate - http://rapidshare.com/files/201479405/kameleon.avi (http://rapidshare.com/files/201479405/kameleon.avi)

it was present in previous version, but botton quick search buttons make it even more obvious.


it is a Panel Stack Splitter issue. all buttons flicker on mouse over on one of them, on fast PC (or good GC) it's very annoying, but in your case, it looks bad, i know, but i can't do anything for you. sorry

I was suspecting that

Anyway, great job, thank you again!


(if got MOST recent drivers) maybe try to set 16x aniso and 6x antialias &wait for vertical refresh in nvidia/ati panel? i know it is windows, but if vista it could help  i hope

somebody has the problem that coverflow doesnt show up?

I fixed it with loading no coverflow version of coverflow and reloading the one with coverflow, and it works!

(Might also work with just re-importing the coverflow version)

as said in the DOC !

B/ Panel Stack Splitter settings (panels that can be shown/hidden on startup)

Default layout display the left panel with 3 mini panels (ART, LYR and SPE) + right panel (collapsed). For your convenience, you can choose which panels to show/hide on startup if these don't match your tastes

1. for the mini-panels in the Left Panel, Right click on the Left Panel header (ART PHO LYR ... SPE) and enter Splitter settings,

then for each panel beggining by "->", you can check or not the 'hide panel on startup' option (restart needed of course coz of startup options biggrin.gif)

so, for -> Force wallpaper ... modify the 'hide on startup' option

Regarding this common question, you should spell it out in your doc. Write it in bold red letters: "To toggle background artist art and static background, modify..." Hopefully that way people will stop asking that question.

Also, there's this typo in your doc that's been driving me crazy since release 1.0a: 

kameleon_default_width : mumeric value, i.e.: 900

I think what he means is that when he is tabbing into another app by clicking on the taskbar, sometimes he clicks on the foobar seekbar, and the track jumps to the spot he clicked. So, he wants to switch the file location bar at the top with the seekbar to avoid mistakenly clicking on the foobar seekbar when switching apps.

My suggestion? Alt+Tab on XP or Win+Tab if you are in vista to switch apps. Or, you can slightly reduce the foobar window size from its maximized position, which will put the seekbar slightly above its current position.

... just read the doc , D/ 6.

there's no info about how to change %title% - %artist% to %title% 


normally %artist% added after the %title is %album artist% tag filled and different from the %artist% tag, or if there is no group header en your ELP.


BUT, it seem to be a bug and now i always fdisplay %artist%

i'll fix that asap.


Hey Br3tt, are you fixing this in the next release or are you able to upload a temporary .fcl in the meantime? Thanks

I have a problem which I assume no one else does.

When I start foobar - it defaults to shuffle playback even tho I've gone into settings and set "Playback Order Shuffle" to "hide panel on startup". If I click thru the modes via the playback buttons at the bottom, when it get's back to "default" order it plays fine in order. As you can imagine this is a pain to do every single time I start foobar now.

Anyone any ideas?

I'm having this problem too. I'd like it to start on shuffle, and even with the proper things hidden, it still starts on default. Any ideas?

Edit: Just fixed it, I should've read up a bit. I just reversed my settings and now it's doing what I want it to, but the default order button shows on startup instead of the random button, which is only minor.

What Br3tt means is you need the correct aspect ratio. I also use widescreen with a native res of 1920x1200. That means any res (example: 2560x1600, 1920x1200, 1600x1200, 1280x1024, 800x600, etc...) at that aspect ratio will display your background correctly.

[a href=\"http://img11.imageshack.us/my.php?image=foon.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"]

So there is no way to have it simply display the picture with it fitting into the space available?  it will always stretch it out to fit only the width?  why?  that doesn't really make sense to me.

Is there any way to code it so that it will fit to which ever is larger the height or width?  that way if a picture is in portrait instead of landscape, it will fit top to bottom and you will be left with black on the sides (which I am totally ok with).  Any tips for me to alter it myself would be appreciated.

In another config I use sometimes, I see this line:

Code: [Select]
$imageabs(0,0,%_width%,%_height%,$get(artist.pic),noexpansion)

would that help?

Thanks again, and kudos on the beautiful config.

so, i see you don't understand how it works in my config, so i'll try to do a quick explain to make you understand this.

first, i've decided to not display empty area when the bg pic doesn't fit the whole window, like this :

(http://xs536.xs.to/xs536/09094/ratio_fitted128.png)

- to do without empty area, 2 possibilities :

1) displaying the bg pic to take the whole place without keeping the aspect ratio (nokeepaspect option of $imageabs(...)), but it is really ugly to stretch images :

(http://xs536.xs.to/xs536/09094/stretched775.png)

2) displaying the bg pic but keeping the aspect ration of the pic ! it's what i have done, but in order to respect my first need (no empty area) i center the pic and i zoom it (in or out) to fill the whole space in the window !

(http://xs536.xs.to/xs536/09094/ratio_ok_fit_ok743.png)

if i don't do this, in the example you gave, a 'portrait' format image like your (ratio near 3:4) to be displayed in a 'landscape' format window (ratio near 4:3), you'll add empty area at the left and at the right of the picture, it is really not sexy for my point of view.

is it more clear now ?

Now, if you want to display pics in another way, i'll not help you, take your titleformat's manual and code it by yourself. Sorry... choices had to be made, i made them.

Well, I had "playback order default" panel hidden on startup, and "playback order shuffle" panel not hidden. When I did this, foobar would load and show the shuffle symbol in the bottom button, yet tracks would play in default order.
What I simply did was show the "playback order default" panel, and hide the "playback order shuffle" panel. This way when foobar would load, my tracks would play in shuffle order, but there is still the problem of the wrong button showing at the bottom (the default order button).

So, I consider my problem mostly solved. My tracks now shuffle on load, but the wrong button image shows. I'm not sure if this is an error with Kameleon, perhaps Brett can attest to that?
Hope this helps.

kenboldt, I was having a sorta similar issue with album art and artist photos. From earlier configs of Brett's I had been keeping my artist images as squares, since those earlier configs showed the artist pics in a 1:1 ratio. Since Kameleon those artist images are now in 4:3 it seems, so what I needed to do was remove the "nokeepaspectratio" tags from some of the lines of the code, which I have no problem with doing    I also had to fix the way album art was displayed, since not all my album covers are square (example, Japanese singles from the 90s came on small 8cm CDs in long cases, which made for a long album art, more in a 1:3 aspect ratio). So in most cases, it's just the case of removing the "nokeepaspectratio" and replacing it with "keepaspectratio".

I hope this helps you with the issue of artist images being stretched to fit the wallpaper in Kameleon. Alternatively, you could just force the wallpaper, as I do.

Hmm, strange. My set-up behaves a bit different regarding playback order. It always starts with the order I used the last time. Even when I use Shuffle (albums) or something else which is not present in Kameleon's button-options and re-start foobar, the order will stay the same until I manually change it. I have tried several combinations of hiding shuffle/default panels but that doesn't influence it in any way.

it's normal, CUI or PSS don't offer permanent global variable to allow skinners to save the playback order, so, when you restart foobar, Kameleon has no idea of what is the last playback order used (the active one coz foobar remains it him!)

so, Kameleon always starts with the same playback order button, and can be different from the real active one ... no other way possible, that's a shame, i know.

It has some disadvantages still:
if you load or reload the fcl, the panel order that the fcl is saved with is indicated, no matter what playback order is actual running.
And you should avoid using other methods to switch the playback order (menu, shortcuts etc.) of course.
But this can be easily solved by a click on the button.

And then: the tabs are flickering on switching...
(But maybe caused by the panel stack splitter)

EDIT:
Oh, and you need T.P. Wangs modification of foo_uie_tabs (to work on vista)

Hi there, first of all, thanks a lot Falstaff for your hard work, this is an excellent configuration.

My Album Art (folder.jpg) is displaying correctly for most of my albums except when it comes to multi-disc albums because i put each disc on separate folders, something like this:

%artist%\%date% - %album%\Disc %discnumber%\

How can I display the Album Art for those multi-disc albums without having to put the same picture (folder.jpg) in each "Disc N" folder?

Not sure if you intended it to be this way, but that post came across incredibly rude.  Not sure why I deserved that.  Anyway, back on topic, I do fully understand how it is working in your config, and I respect that it is your config, and you can have it look how you want.  I was looking for some advice as to where I could tinker with things to get it to look how I would like it.  I don't know much about titleformat code, but I do understand the basics, and the theory of programming in general, and I was hoping that you might be able to point me in the direction of the lines of code I might be able to play with to see if I can get it looking how I would like.  If you really don't want to help, that's fine, you aren't required to, but I would appreciate it if you could just point me in the right direction.

I just discovered the button in Kameleon to display the properties dialog, but I am used to using the keyboard short-cut.


As soon as I started using Brett's configs I noticed this happening too. I'd like to know why alt+enter doesn't bring up the properties dialogue anymore, either

so, i see you don't understand how it works in my config, so i'll try to do a quick explain to make you understand this.

first, i've decided to not display empty area when the bg pic doesn't fit the whole window, like this :

(http://xs536.xs.to/xs536/09094/ratio_fitted128.png)

- to do without empty area, 2 possibilities :

1) displaying the bg pic to take the whole place without keeping the aspect ratio (nokeepaspect option of $imageabs(...)), but it is really ugly to stretch images :

(http://xs536.xs.to/xs536/09094/stretched775.png)

2) displaying the bg pic but keeping the aspect ration of the pic ! it's what i have done, but in order to respect my first need (no empty area) i center the pic and i zoom it (in or out) to fill the whole space in the window !

(http://xs536.xs.to/xs536/09094/ratio_ok_fit_ok743.png)

if i don't do this, in the example you gave, a 'portrait' format image like your (ratio near 3:4) to be displayed in a 'landscape' format window (ratio near 4:3), you'll add empty area at the left and at the right of the picture, it is really not sexy for my point of view.

is it more clear now ?

Now, if you want to display pics in another way, i'll not help you, take your titleformat's manual and code it by yourself. Sorry... choices had to be made, i made them.

Regards,


Not sure if you intended it to be this way, but that post came across incredibly rude.  Not sure why I deserved that.  Anyway, back on topic, I do fully understand how it is working in your config, and I respect that it is your config, and you can have it look how you want.  I was looking for some advice as to where I could tinker with things to get it to look how I would like it.  I don't know much about titleformat code, but I do understand the basics, and the theory of programming in general, and I was hoping that you might be able to point me in the direction of the lines of code I might be able to play with to see if I can get it looking how I would like.  If you really don't want to help, that's fine, you aren't required to, but I would appreciate it if you could just point me in the right direction.

Thanks.


first, my intentions were not to be 'rude', so excuse me if you had take it like this.
now, to change the display of bg images, i said that i'll help you because it's a mod of the config, and i don't want to modify it for the reason explained in previous posts. Now if you want mod it, you can, no problem, but if you're not able to find the lines to change, i'm afraid that you'll be alble to do it by yourself ... but i hope i'm wrong, and i just can tell you that you need to enter splitter settings (right-click on 'Kameleon' icon button at bottom, -> enter splitter settings, go to the tab that contains the script 'Per Track',  and look for the blocs that calculate ratio and then display the images depending on the ration format (3 blocs, there are comments in the code).

here are the piece of code to modify...

Nice config, but there is an issue.

When using the Album List Panel, i frequently start typing the item I want to select that item. Then i want to use my keyboard to add it to the playlist, using SHIFT+ENTER as it says in the context menu.
However nothing happens. Non of the shortkeys mentioned in the context menu work. They did work when using the deafult layout, so something must have changed when installing Kameleon.
This also happened with the other two configs of your making.

Is there a setting I'm missing or is it just a bug/missing feature. If it's the latter could you take a look at it and implement it?

It is strange, but then I installed foobar 0.9.6.3 something happens with chronflow 
There are not any actions on mouse click, only scrolling through covers works.
Is it chronflow problem ? or config ?

So I was using kameleon_rate_to_db=1 because I didn't want to change the "Date Modified" for my mp3's, but then I noticed that once I moved an album folder from one location to another, the ratings would get lost! So I gave in and changed the above setting back to "0" so that ratings get tagged in the file... however, now when I rate an mp3, the tags are lost, at least in the Vista Windows Explorer view as well as in the dbPowerAmp tab in file properties:

First 2 tracks were rated with default setting (in Tag, not database):


[a href="http://img12.imageshack.us/my.php?image=rating3.jpg" target="_blank"](http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/4453/rating3.th.jpg) (http://img10.imageshack.us/my.php?image=rating1.jpg)

Anyone know what the deal is with this?

Can someone help me with the above issue? Any info is much appreciated, thx!

Also, for some reason, shpeck is now displaying in its own window, rather than in the VIS panel. How can I force shpeck to display in the VIS panel? Right now it is blank/black:

Hi,

I think there is something to correct in your epl playlist code about the autorating, you use %play_counter% that works only if you have play_counter tags instead of $get(play_counter) that will work for play_count and play_counter tags

   

I use play_count and i had to replace the line

$if(%play_counter%,$puts(rating,$div(%play_counter%,$get(autorate.add))),$puts(rating,0))

by

$if($get(play_counter),$puts(rating,$div($get(play_counter),$get(autorate.add))),$puts(rating,0))

to have the stars display correctly.

I have it set just as above now but when I rate a track I lose all tags when viewing in Windows Explorer, dbPowerAmp, etc. Foobar seems to read them OK though... Another thing is that I have foo_playcount.dll loaded but no config for it in Foobar Preferences:

(http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/8461/playcount.th.jpg) (http://img27.imageshack.us/my.php?image=playcount.jpg)

Also, if anyone can help me with the shpeck issue, that would be great too! This config was working so well until recently - not sure what went wrong.

You are still writing Ratings to tag and foobar writes tags with ID3v2.4/UTF-8 and win explorer can't read this (I'm not sur if 2.4 or UTF-8 is the problem).

Go to Preferences-->Advanced-->Tagging/Mp3-->check ID3v2 compatibility Mode
Or install AudioShell Extension (AudioShell (http://www.softpointer.com/AudioShell.htm)) - it can read UTF-8 and prepares additional columns for win explorer.

Cause there are no preferences.

The only thing you can do is to check/uncheck writing database entries to tags in Preferences-->Advanced-->Tools-->Playback Statistics

The command in Curacao for GB-Button is COMMAND:'Edit/Jump/Previous/by album' (Previous/Next, by album/artist)

Maybe you can use this for a shortcut.

I apologize if this is obvious.  I have a question about play count.  I understand that there are two options, one writing to the tags, and one to the database.  Is there any way when writing to the database for it to reflect in the little number by the song name and the stat panel?  Or is that just tags.  Where are the database statistics shown?  Thanks.

Post by: bubi jackson on 2009-03-04 08:24:05
I'm talking about the official Playback Statistics now, I don't know anything about PBS Custom.

The database ratings are shown in the properties tab of the properties panel in the Playback Statistics section. But they are also shown there, if you are rating in tags.

To show ratings there are two different ways of it.
Via the metadata %rating% - relating to Database and Tags, or via meta(%rating%) - relating only to the tag Rating.

And with the metadata %rating% there are some problems with confusing double-ratings, if you have two different rating values in database and tags. The Rating is not shown properly, it's a mix of both them.

So you can request the Rating by asking for meta(%rating%) and then for %rating%


I hope I talked in a clear way, if not, ask again.

Well, I got same problem as I got in first version of FooKameleon. My artist art won't show up, although my address is correct. Last time I had this problem I fix it by reinstalling whole foobar and kameleon. I did this time twice, but no go. I know you're tired of answering questions like this, but check out this picture and you'll se no one had this problem before:

http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/6972/blahf.jpg (http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/6972/blahf.jpg)

In artist panel, there's pictures of artists,in exvar is correct adress and folder does contain valid pictures. What's the problem?
In previous version, if there's no artist art, fookameleon would load cover art instead of artist art, but now it's just baroque wallpaper. Is something changed since last version (in visual meaning of background) except default wallpaper and how can I change it to be as it used to be before?

Also, how can I change default text for track name ( http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/812/sdas.jpg (http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/812/sdas.jpg) ) to show in Calibri or in some other font? Thanks so much

Anyway, big props on new realease of Kameleon, it's awesome and probably best skin ever released for Foo  Peace

Thanks for the reply.  Here's my issue.  I would like to have the number of times played reflected in the little number by the song title and the statistics panel on the left side without writing to the tags.  This may be impossible. 

On Falstaff's site, he gives 2 options for playback statistics, one using the official(written to database) and one using the custom (written to tags). 

Under Preferences>tools there should be a play counter settings page, but on mine I don't have it (using 0.9.6.3).  Under Preferences>tools>Playback Statistics Custom>database dropdown, if i select only foo_custominfo database, the playback numbers are not updated.  My question is where that foo_custominfo database is located and shown (I realize you're responding about the offical playback statistics).  Again, I apologize if what I'm asking is obviously impossible or that I'm misunderstanding something.

Yes, it's possible and it was one of the first things I tweaked for my personal use


Right-click on PL-button, then go to splitter-settings, script.
Search for this part:

Code: [Select]
$if($isvisible_c(-> AL),
    $if($isvisible_c(-> Max),
.
.
.
,
    $if($isvisible_c(-> Max),

You have to change the single next row to:
Code: [Select]
$imagebutton($add($get(lpf.x),5),$add($get(lpf.y),7),15,21,$get(z)'/bt/AL_up0.png',$get(z)'/bt/AL_up0.png',PANELSHOW:-> Max:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> AL),PANELSHOW:P8:0;PANELSHOW:-> AL:0,PANELSHOW:P8:1;PANELSHOW:-> AL:1);$if($isvisible_c(-> ART),PANELSHOW:P1:1,PANELSHOW:P1:0);PANELSHOW:-> ART:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> PHO),PANELSHOW:P7:1,PANELSHOW:P7:0);PANELSHOW:-> PHO:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> LYR),PANELSHOW:P2:1,PANELSHOW:P2:0);PANELSHOW:-> LYR:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> INF),PANELSHOW:P3:1,PANELSHOW:P3:0);PANELSHOW:-> INF:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> VIS),PANELSHOW:P4:1,PANELSHOW:P4:0);PANELSHOW:-> VIS:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> STA),PANELSHOW:P5:1,PANELSHOW:P5:0);PANELSHOW:-> STA:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> SPE),PANELSHOW:P6:1,PANELSHOW:P6:0);PANELSHOW:-> SPE:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> PL),PANELSHOW:P9:1,PANELSHOW:P9:0);PANELSHOW:-> PL:0;REFRESH,,)


Then search for the row after
Code: [Select]
$if($isvisible_c(-> PL),
.
.

Thanks for the reply.  Here's my issue.  I would like to have the number of times played reflected in the little number by the song title and the statistics panel on the left side without writing to the tags.  This may be impossible.

Ok, now I understand what you want.

Quote
On Falstaff's site, he gives 2 options for playback statistics, one using the official(written to database) and one using the custom (written to tags). 

Under Preferences>tools there should be a play counter settings page, but on mine I don't have it (using 0.9.6.3).

It looks like an addtitional 3d Party Plugin, like foo_playcount (unofficial)

Quote
Under Preferences>tools>Playback Statistics Custom>database dropdown, if i select only foo_custominfo database, the playback numbers are not updated.  My question is where that foo_custominfo database is located and shown (I realize you're responding about the offical playback statistics).  Again, I apologize if what I'm asking is obviously impossible or that I'm misunderstanding something.

Ok, you need to have foo_custominfo to be installed to get the database.

i want to let the pl and al list panel aways max size when i click on them.
is there a way to do this?
and thanks for this great config. 
you are amazing! 

sorry for the bad english.



Yes, it's possible and it was one of the first things I tweaked for my personal use


Right-click on PL-button, then go to splitter-settings, script.
Search for this part:

Code: [Select]
$if($isvisible_c(-> AL),
    $if($isvisible_c(-> Max),
.
.
.
,
    $if($isvisible_c(-> Max),

You have to change the single next row to:
Code: [Select]
$imagebutton($add($get(lpf.x),5),$add($get(lpf.y),7),15,21,$get(z)'/bt/AL_up0.png',$get(z)'/bt/AL_up0.png',PANELSHOW:-> Max:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> AL),PANELSHOW:P8:0;PANELSHOW:-> AL:0,PANELSHOW:P8:1;PANELSHOW:-> AL:1);$if($isvisible_c(-> ART),PANELSHOW:P1:1,PANELSHOW:P1:0);PANELSHOW:-> ART:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> PHO),PANELSHOW:P7:1,PANELSHOW:P7:0);PANELSHOW:-> PHO:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> LYR),PANELSHOW:P2:1,PANELSHOW:P2:0);PANELSHOW:-> LYR:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> INF),PANELSHOW:P3:1,PANELSHOW:P3:0);PANELSHOW:-> INF:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> VIS),PANELSHOW:P4:1,PANELSHOW:P4:0);PANELSHOW:-> VIS:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> STA),PANELSHOW:P5:1,PANELSHOW:P5:0);PANELSHOW:-> STA:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> SPE),PANELSHOW:P6:1,PANELSHOW:P6:0);PANELSHOW:-> SPE:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> PL),PANELSHOW:P9:1,PANELSHOW:P9:0);PANELSHOW:-> PL:0;REFRESH,,)


Then search for the row after
Code: [Select]
$if($isvisible_c(-> PL),
.
.
.
,$if($isvisible_c(-> Max),
and replace it with

Code: [Select]
$imagebutton($sub($get(lpanel.w),14),$add($get(lpf.y),7),15,21,$get(z)'/bt/PL_up0.png',$get(z)'/bt/PL_up0.png',PANELSHOW:-> Max:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> PL),PANELSHOW:P9:0;PANELSHOW:-> AL:0,PANELSHOW:P9:1;PANELSHOW:-> PL:1);$if($isvisible_c(-> ART),PANELSHOW:P1:1,PANELSHOW:P1:0);PANELSHOW:-> ART:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> PHO),PANELSHOW:P7:1,PANELSHOW:P7:0);PANELSHOW:-> PHO:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> LYR),PANELSHOW:P2:1,PANELSHOW:P2:0);PANELSHOW:-> LYR:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> INF),PANELSHOW:P3:1,PANELSHOW:P3:0);PANELSHOW:-> INF:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> VIS),PANELSHOW:P4:1,PANELSHOW:P4:0);PANELSHOW:-> VIS:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> STA),PANELSHOW:P5:1,PANELSHOW:P5:0);PANELSHOW:-> STA:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> SPE),PANELSHOW:P6:1,PANELSHOW:P6:0);PANELSHOW:-> SPE:0;$if($isvisible_c(-> AL),PANELSHOW:P8:1,PANELSHOW:P8:0);PANELSHOW:-> AL:0;REFRESH,,)

I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but is there anyway I could use if statements in the extended variables. That is, define a variable outside of it and then call it with extended variables? For the album art, I want it to first scan for folder.jpg -> cover.jpg and if not, *.jpg

Thank you for your assembly. This is a very great work!
I ask for help, please with a problem in assembling Kameleon 1.1a:

1. for the Chronflow problem, it is a chronflow issue, try to download the last available drivers for your graphic card, that might fix it... if not, try a post in the chronflow topic, thanx.

2. for your WSH display pb, it is because you haven't installed the font saxmono, maybe i've forgot it in my package ... you can easily find it on dafont.com
or change the line :
var g_font = gdi.Font(-9, weight_normal, italic_no, uline_no, "saxmono");

by replacing saxmono by another font ...

Hi there, first of all, thanks a lot Falstaff for your hard work, this is an excellent configuration.

My Album Art (folder.jpg) is displaying correctly for most of my albums except when it comes to multi-disc albums because i put each disc on separate folders, something like this:

%artist%\%date% - %album%\Disc %discnumber%\

How can I display the Album Art for those multi-disc albums without having to put the same picture (folder.jpg) in each "Disc N" folder?

Thanks in advance.


I still need help with this. 
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: bubi jackson on 2009-03-09 07:30:55
I don't use Kameleon, but I think it's similar to Curacao. You have to rewrite some code in ELP and PSS to go up the dir if there's no folder.jpg in the music folder.

So I would say you copy the pictures.



Edit: When will the final come, Br3tt? I'm waiting impatiently.

I have a small question. I noticed that with Kameleon the left panels like the lyrics panel, spectrum panel, albumart panel,....the transparency is different then that of the playlist. This is especially noticeable when using dark backgrounds. In curacao it was the same transparency for everything. Is there a way to make the transparency of the left panels match that of the playlist or vice versa.

Note I'm still on Kameleon 1.0 so I don't know if that changed with 1.1, I'm waiting for the final so I can mod that to my liking.

Become like this

edit: now i've got a new problem ...
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I already put all the tracks i need into a folder but the foobar doesn't accept it as a group but many "albums" as you can see. I tried many "sort..." ways but it has still divided the tracks into many "albums" and it's really hard to see, though there's still some albums my tracks are placed in a group. As you can see below:

In your first picture there's a "?" at the artist line, so you have to tag the files with an artist.

I also think there's no album tag.

um, really thank for your advice but... is there a way to put them in one artist/artist at once?  Because it's quite hard to tag every files one by one and there're tons of them i need to do the same...
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: bubi jackson on 2009-03-11 09:31:49
I did no batch tagging with foobar so far.

Are the filenames with artists?
Then select all > Properties > Automatically Fill Values /Source=File Names/ Pattern
eg. 01 - Britney Spears - I love you so > Pattern: %tracknumber% - %artist% - %title%

If filenames don't include artist you have to do this manually via freedb- or discogs-tagger or via Prperties Panel and typing the artist, afaik.
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: jazzthieve on 2009-03-11 09:33:26
Foobar works best when all your music is properly tagged, artist and album tags are the bare minimum. You don't need to tag them one by one, just select all the songs from the same album at once and assign it an artist and album tag. Do that for all your music and it will look the way you want.

Thanks everyone every much!! 
Well, after doing as you guys told but now i'm facing a final problem here '' That is there's some albums but has a variety of artists (ex: a vocal collections album)=> the result is it devided into many albums but with the same image  the problem i want to solve is how to group them in same path folder so that they can still be an album but with many different artists (like the "folder structure" way in the library).

I'm terribly sorry that i have too much troubles, I also tried by google but it's hopeless (maybe because of my stupid key words).

Would it be possible to change the date display code to the following code in the Group Header of ELPlaylist?

$ifequal($len($get(%_DATE_%)),4,
  $puts(nb1,$left($get(%_DATE_%),1))

  $puts(nb3,$left($right($get(%_DATE_%),2),1))
  $puts(nb4,$right($get(%_DATE_%),1))


Reason I ask is I have my date in the format YYYY-MM-DD

You are better off having all album art EXACTLY square (download as close as you can get then resize in PS or similar), I normally use 500x500 or 700x700, then they work perfectly in Chronflow and the CD Cases in Kameleon. Artist pics are the exact opposite, you really need them similar to your screen resolution, I tend to download artist wallpaper from fan sites which works perfectly, 1024x768 or similar ratio. I also put Artist.jpg in every single album folder which enables me to have a different artist background pic for each album if I choose, or just duplicate the same Artist.jpg into each folder

not possible, Kameleon doesn't distord pics ! it crops them if their ratio is different from the main window ratio, crop but keep them centered !

You are right. Refresh issue prolly. When I change the artist and come back to the newly updated artist again, the picture shows correct aspect ratio. I wonder how to use the cover art or different art in the background instead of default artist pci from the specified folder. Please let me know. I am clickinhg the foobar mask and getting the regular artist pic. It would be nice if I could get the coverart as BG or another pic. I understand the wallpaper option. Thanks.

... just read the doc , D/ 6.

there's no info about how to change %title% - %artist% to %title% 


normally %artist% added after the %title is %album artist% tag filled and different from the %artist% tag, or if there is no group header en your ELP.


BUT, it seem to be a bug and now i always fdisplay %artist%

i'll fix that asap.


Hey Br3tt, are you fixing this in the next release or are you able to upload a temporary .fcl in the meantime? Thanks


I've been scouring this thread hopefully looking for someone who didn't like this as well. I find it a tad bit annoying. Don't really need to see the %artist% after %title% unless it's various artists. Has anyone edited that out themselves, and if so, where?

Thanks Br3tt, I can't get enough of this config. 

I have a quick question about playback statistics custom.  Is there a way to prevent foobar from jumping to the front when it registers a playcount?  For example, I have it set so that at 50% pb statistics custom writes a playcount, but when that happens, foobar moves to the front of the windows i have open (I can't tell if it does it all the time).  Thanks for any help.

I've just did a fresh install of v1.2.0 on a fresh install of foobar.

When going through the component settings on your site I noticed that you say to disable stat writing on the official playback statistics plugin.

Problem is I don't have the official playback statistics showing up in my foobar preferences.

Any idea why that would be happening?

Also I noticed a few changes/bugs/regressions that I just wanted to point out.

1. The album art shows up in the background after every restart, I need to manually click on the icon to change after every restart.
2. The album list and playlist switcher are now the full size of the side panel? Is this by design?

I disabled my original playback statistics plugin by:

View (on kameleon) > toogle toolbars (in case it's hidden) > Library (on foobar toolbar) > Playback statistics > Monitor playing tracks (uncheck).

Great skin. Been using it since 1.0


Oh, and just a suggestion / question. Is it possible that the wallpaper would only change if artist art is present (e.g. it won't change to album art). My album art isn't high resolution, therefore the background is terrible pixelated. Plus, my player ratio is set to 4:3 (also appropriate for artist art); album art gets clipped.

Thanks!

Question for Falstaff -- Is there a way to cycle the Artist Pic & Album pic the way you cycle the wallpapers when cycle flag is set? As I have already chosen the path for artist folder, the background wallpaper defaults to that Artist pic if I click the mask. It did not pick a different Artist pic when I put it in that particular album folder. But, if we can cycle the pics like artist1.jpg, artist2.jpg artist3.jpg etc. it will be fun.

Since I have abundant vertical space I'd like to have that comment to be able to show x amount of lines so it would be able to show a small biography of the artist. I tried for hours to find a solution but can't seem to find a way. Can anyone help please?

First of all, congrats on new release  FooKameleon gets better and better with every new realease.

This is side question, I was looking at some Q's and I saw this picture ( http://s566.photobucket.com/albums/ss109/k...rrent=771x5.jpg (http://s566.photobucket.com/albums/ss109/klxy/?action=view&current=771x5.jpg) ) my question is : how can I get playlist time statistic and black searchbar? Also, it would be great when alphabetic listing would be more practic : when I make one click on random letter, FooKameleon would jump to the first alphabetic ordered artist of chosen letter (but not play it, which is more practical when you have big library, because when you're making queue playlist and double click on letter, it mess up whole your queue playlist)  Thanks

About the alphabetic listing, you can change it to the way u want by:
+) Right click on 1 of the letters, choose settings
+) Select the tab Others
+) Change Single click from None to Default

However, I have a display problem on the now playing panel :

Ok than I did it right. Because I got confused whether paths were to be edited there or not. First I copy pasted it but didn't work. So I thought I had to edit something and tried that too.


It's probably my paths and file names in extended  variables.

So I got the paths ending correctly with "/" 

And I put file names as %album%*.*

Anything wrong there? reads perfectly well except for chronflow, no image at all.

EDIT: Btw what does the heart do?
EDIT 2: Last thing I believe. How do I set it so that if no artist art is found (but cover is), display default background? Force Wallpaper not  it.
And kameleon_cycle_bg works for all background right (not just default)? If I have Red Hot Chili Peppers 1.jpg and Red Hot Chili Peppers 2.jpg it will cycle between the two? (being that I set it as %artist%*.*). But if I have 7 RHCP backgrounds can I set value to 7? Or is maximum 6?
EDIT 3: For example album names with : what should the path to the album art be? replace : by what? tried _  - x and space. none worked.

Hi,Falstaff

"Album List (AL) and Playlist Switcher (PL) panels are now opened in maximized mode by default in the LEFT PANEL"

Can you make it on Info panel?

I would (maybe more people) like to use default width and height. So I think that could be useful.

And there is a bug:

Splitter Settings→Script→PerTrack

$font(SegoeUI,8,normal)

SegoeUI without a blank space.

And there is a problem,see the pic...

I set path panel to hide,and after the song is changed,I click "↑" icon.....



This config is awesome,THANKS!

Possible to create an icon to link wikipedia for artist/band bio?

Great update, as always 

For you, runrunaway:

Right-click the "Kameleon"-button, then go to splitter-settings, script. Add those lines:

Per track tab:
Code: [Select]
$imageabs($add($get(pbt.x),170),$add($get(pbt.y),5),90,16,$get(foo_path)'images/curacao/rating/set1/r0.png',nokeepaspect,,255)


Per second tab:
Code: [Select]
$puts(cf_name,'kameleon')
$puts(foo_path,%FOOBAR_PATH%)
$puts(z,$get(foo_path)'images/'$get(cf_name))

$puts(pbt.x,7)
$puts(pbt.y,$sub(%_height%,50))


$ifgreater(%rating%,0,
    $puts(rating,$if2(%rating%,0))
    $imageabs($add($get(pbt.x),170),$add($get(pbt.y),5),90,16,$get(foo_path)'images/curacao/rating/set1/r'$get(rating)'.png',nokeepaspect,,250)
,)


Note that I use the curacao rating icons (higher resolution), so maybe you have to change that.

That's no problem, it's also for everyone else who's interested.

It just lets you see the rating of the current song if you dont use the AB panel (similar to Curacou, under the album art).

So, could you help me to improve it for myself?

http://s10b.directupload.net/images/090321/3celrusa.jpg (http://s10b.directupload.net/images/090321/3celrusa.jpg)
By "replace by albumlist" I mean, to put the albumliust back to the place where it was in the earlier versions of Kameleon (1.0 I think), because the current behavior really annoys me.

I hope you could help me.

Bug: When pressing INFO AL or PL, if  you than press spe, art, lyr, etc it will load as full panel, and it won't split if you try to add more. You have to press again in INFO AL or PL to put things right.

Post by: alvinmnash1114 on 2009-03-22 05:00:40
What does the heart do?


The heart button changes <MOOD> tag to 1. In effect, it changes the track number to gold.
The "i hate this song" button beside it changes <SKIP> to 1. Testing it, it doesn't really skip the track. It changes the track number to an "i hate this song" icon.
Pushing both buttons turns the track number into a golden "i hate this song", signifying your bipolarism.

It doesn't seem to have any connection with the love/hate track in Last.fm, which is a pity.

Hi,

not a bug, when you are maximized in the left panel, you can switch to another panel but it stays maximized (wanted!), just click the zoom out button to go back to panel stack display (mini-panels)

Ok than I think we should be able. After pressing AL or PL of Info which automatically loads maximized, if we click  SPE twice next. First it would show SPE maximized. After the second click, it would minimize. Pratical.

It's your skin in the end. I'd be appreciated if you could help me with  my questions being that the heart button was already clarified.

change made from 1.1 to 1.2.x : now, stats only use %play_counter% tag info and no more %play_count% tag

you can change %play_counter% values in GB Stat and in ELPlaylist panels to make it match you %play_count% tag ...

BUG?: It is a bug but not sure if it's fixable. When viewing a different playlist that is not the one playing, if you try to minimize all album headers in the - button it will take you back to the playlist that is currently playing. Gets annoying to me as I'm constantly editing songs and many times they are on a different playlist.


Falstaff, could you please answer my questions above? thx

fixed in v1.2.2 just released

Change log :

1.2.2 :
- Bug fixed : sometimes playlist switcher left panel had bad refresh (very annoying) => no more now (btw no more reproduced with the fix)
- Bug fixed : buttons + / - to expand or collapse the playlist ativated too the 'Show now playing command' => removed
- YEAR display in the playlist header : now, long dates are accepted but it still display only the Year (it take by default the 4 digits on the left : 2005-07-24 => 2005)
- Tweaks

@Falstaff
Sorry, but Tools --> Play Counter is not the entry of the official statistics plugin foo_playcount.dll
Its one and only setting is available through Advanced --> Tools --> Playback Statistics.
The above entry must come from a 3rd party plugin (maybe the obsolete foo_custominfo, but i don't know. I never used it)

Damned !! you're right

Weird, i have no other stats plugin in my components folder (except Playback custom Stats which is another entry in ->Tools)

surely the panel from foo_playcount_mod but i've removed it a long time ago now, and screen settings still there

Hammurabi presents a hack 'n slash adventure in replacing panels

1. Right click splitter > Add Panel > %your_panel% (e.g UPNP Browser)

Now your panel should replace the whole splitter

2. Right click till you get the splitter menu again > Splitter Settings

You should see %your_panel% there, click it > Select Force Layout

3. Pick a existing panel you want to replace, e.g -> SPE, -> AL.

Rename it. Call %your_panel% it's previous name.

4. Click Apply

It may not be pretty but it works

My spectrum visualizations (i.e. bars going up and down and/or left to right) flicker rapidly after a while during playback... They continue to flicker until I click on the visualization. I am synched to scanline, and I use full (new) FFT modes on all three. This is a random bug, and I do not know how to replicate it. Windows Vista SP1 32-Bit, with latest foobar and foobar components.

I'd like to say I really love Kameleon.  This is the first one I've tried and your instructions were clear and easily understood, I had no problems getting it all up and running.  That's not to say I won't run into problems along the way    but for now I'm loving it!

Thanks Falstaff!

I have few suggestions (not requests!) which could make this config even better. I've been using foobar for quite a while now (still have old installation with Scaled 0.7) and this is the best config I've seen so far.

1.Replace playlist switcher with library tree. IMHO library tree offers much more than playlist switcher. I've done this on my config and I'm very satisfied with the result
2.It would be great if Biography view could be implemented in left panel. I'm aware this component is new and it might need some improvements.
3.IMHO overlay on artist pictures makes them look artificial, and they would be better without it.
4.Maybe some kind of large cover HTPC view would be nice

That's it  Just some suggestions to think about if this config is going to be improved.

Cheers

Hello. I have noticed that when I play music, the player changes the files. I don’t know if it’s because of this skin or foobar in general. Does it update a play count tag or something? I need the integrity of the files intact after they are played.

I dunno if this is how it's supposed to be but, whatever settings I make to the config, like removing the right side album covers list or enabling the scrollbar, its all removed upon closing and then reopening foobar. There a fix or an option for this?

I think should be able to manage

-edit-
I got it working by replacing INFO, but if it's not too much work, could you provide scripts for adding BIO as an option, and a new panel for it? I've been trying for a bit, but it's a little overwhelming.

Sorry for the trouble =x

-edit2-
updated to the newest version, but I can't figure out how to make all of the albums in ELplaylist collapsed by default, other than the one you're playing. Also, how can I set it up like in curacao where the basic info, e.g. bitrate and format is also displayed in the compressed view? Can I also make it display the playback stats of songs other than the one i'm listening to?

Again, sorry for the hassle.

This is an outstanding plugin.  It does everything I want.  I can tailor pretty much anything I want to fit the specifics, but I am really having a hard time getting my album art to show up anywhere except in Chonflow.

My chronflow code is as follows:
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)folder.jpg
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)front.jpg
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)cover.jpg
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)folder.bmp

$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)%artist% - %album% - Front.bmp
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)%artist% - %album% - Front.png


Since I cannot use the $replace function in the Extended Variables, I will have to get creative based on what I have read.

Attached is my current settings, and I cannot get the artwork to show at all.

I also have foo_playcount.dll component but no "Play Counter" option in Preferences > Tools. Did anyone figure this one out? I do have foo_playback_custom.dll > Playback Statistics Custom, but no Play Counter... how can we get this to show up?


mistake from me in my doc, just read on the previous page the post #519 : http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....st&p=623719 (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=69485&view=findpost&p=623719)

Thanks but this doesn't tell me how to resolve the issue...  Does anyone know how to get "Play Counter" to show up under Preferences > Tools?

Regarding playback stats - my Kameleon "STAT" panel is blank. I am saving playback statistics (using Playback Statistics Custom) to the foo_custominfo database... I thought this was OK to do, but my STAT window remains black/empty.

Playback Statistics Custom settings - yes, these tracks are in my Media Library - I have tried unchecking this setting too with no effect:
(http://i385.photobucket.com/albums/oo292/lonkny/th_PlaybackStats3.png) (http://s385.photobucket.com/albums/oo292/lonkny/?action=view&current=PlaybackStats3.png)
Extended Variables:
(http://i385.photobucket.com/albums/oo292/lonkny/th_PlaybackStats4.png) (http://s385.photobucket.com/albums/oo292/lonkny/?action=view&current=PlaybackStats4.png)
STAT panel:
(http://i385.photobucket.com/albums/oo292/lonkny/th_PlaybackStats5.png) (http://s385.photobucket.com/albums/oo292/lonkny/?action=view&current=PlaybackStats5.png)

Not sure if "kameleon_rate_to_db" has anything to do with this, but right now I have this set to NOT put ratings in a database because it wasn't working well (the database must save the path to the file, because once I move a file that I have rated I lose the rating for that file... is this correct? Is the only way to save the rating with a file that moves to another folder to tag it?).

Does anyone have any ideas about this? More importantly does anyone know how to get Play Counter to show up in Preferences?? Thanks!

Interesting idea. Well, I tried something myself (in the left-panel splitter)

Code: [Select]
$iflonger(%lyrics%,1,
$showpanel_c(P2,1)$showpanel_c(-> LYR,1),
$showpanel_c(P2,0)$showpanel_c(-> LYR,0))


The problem is, it's missing a refresh-command. F.i. if the LYR panel is shown, for the first song without lyrics nothing happens, for the next few the panel is hidden. If someone knows how to do it that it works immediately, please tell me

Hi..I need a little help in ELP.

I have some tracks with a title, but has too a subtitle tag (<PART>) or/and a remix tag(<VERSION>).
For example:
In the tag I have got this:
TITLE : Beyond The Eyelids

And foobar only shows - Beyond The Eyelids

I would like something like: Beyond The Eyelids - Part One: Fearless (Live)

I realise the "easy" way to do this is just switch the extended variables but I believe that would alter more than it should, so..

Can anyone tell me the best way to switch around the artist pic and the album cover (in the background only) so that the album cover is always the wallpaper but the artist pic appears in the small window on the top left.

Also - if possible - is there a way to sort the playlist by rating?

Hi,
Great theme, enjoying it very much.

One question, though.
I have a pretty massive library, although it's few artists and many albums of every artist. Is there a way to set ELPlaylist up so that only the artist names will be displayed in a list, than when clicked it will display all his albums with thumbnails? It will be a lot easier to for me to scroll the library this way.

Thanks,
Eyal

Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: Falstaff on 2009-04-19 09:39:22
it's because the default dpi of fonts on your Vista system has been modified by yourself to a greater value !

skins are designed for a default dpi size, so you are right, it's a personnal problem, easy to fix.

When you change window settings like add the sidebar, close the CSP and what not, how do you save these settings so you don't have to do them every time to open up foobar?

Also, I can't for the life of me tell why my collection is sorted this way: I am using artist/album:
(http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/4382/foobarv.th.jpg) (http://img10.imageshack.us/my.php?image=foobarv.jpg)

As you can see, that Pretenders album is split up for some reason, I do not see any difference in the tags; Anyone know why it's spited up in the playlist?
Title: Kameleon by Br3tt
Post by: bismuth on 2009-04-21 05:13:54
One part of your Pretenders album has the disc number in tag, the other doesn't have, so they are splited.

I think the default sorting is %album artist% - %date% - %album% - %discnumber% - %tracknumber% - %title%

After changing settings, go to Preference/Colums UI/Export, export your settings to an .fcl file, then Import it

I have been playing around with Extended Variables, and I am not getting anywhere.  Here is the structure of my music collection:

F:\Music\"Artist Name"\"Album Name"\"Artist Name - Album Name - Cover.jpg"

For Example:

F:\Music\Opeth\1998 - My Arms, Your Hearse\Opeth - My Arms, Your Hearse - Cover.jpg

Here is what I thought would work using Extended Variables:

kameleon_coverart_path    F:/Music/%artist%/%album%/

kameleon_coverart_filename    %artist% - %album% - Cover.jpg

It does not load any of the covers.  I have tried so many variations, and nothing works.  I can get Chronflow to work easy, but this has me baffled. 

Fallstaff: do you have any ideas?  Is there any way to edit the scripting so that instead of using your default, the default would be something like my file structure?

I have been playing around with Extended Variables, and I am not getting anywhere.  Here is the structure of my music collection:

F:\Music\"Artist Name"\"Album Name"\"Artist Name - Album Name - Cover.jpg"

For Example:

F:\Music\Opeth\1998 - My Arms, Your Hearse\Opeth - My Arms, Your Hearse - Cover.jpg

Here is what I thought would work using Extended Variables:

kameleon_coverart_path    F:/Music/%artist%/%album%/

kameleon_coverart_filename    %artist% - %album% - Cover.jpg

It does not load any of the covers.  I have tried so many variations, and nothing works.  I can get Chronflow to work easy, but this has me baffled.

it works perfectly, just tested like the way you want :

(http://xs538.xs.to/xs538/09172/_ext_var841.jpg)

be sure that your TAG and folder names are the same to make that working.

you can try for the path to simply set it like this :

kameleon_coverart_path    default

Okay, I figured out what the problem is:  All of the folders that contain each album have the date of the album release before the name of the album. 

For example: 2000 - Mer De Noms

If I delete the date, everything works.  Unfortunately, I really need to have the date before each album so I can sort the albums chronologically instead of alphabetically.  Here is the code I am using, but it is not working:

kameleon_coverart_path    F:/Music/%artist%/%date% - %album%/

Does the %date% function work in extended variables?  That is the only reason why my covers are not showing.  The date on the folder of each album is throwing it all off...

I am almost there.  Any hints?

I have some tracks with a title, but has too a subtitle tag (<VERSION>).

I did a little change to show this information, but I don't know why that information is not capitalized. Take a look plz:

%date% is not handled in Kameleon for foo_exvar like said in the doc :

"IMPORTANT: foo-exvar do not handle variables like %var%, except %artist%, %album%, %album artist%, %band%, %performer% and %discogs_artist_id% because i have tweaked the code in K to handle them."

i can add it, i'll try to post a new version tonight.

Is there a way to add something in foo_exvar so it can look for album art one level up in the directory structure?

Something similar to this:

$if($findfile(%__ART_PATH__%),
  $puts(art_path,%__ART_PATH__%)
,
  $if($findfile($substr(%path%,1,$strrchr($replace(%path%,\%filename_ext%,),\))Cover.jpg),
      $puts(art_path,$substr(%path%,1,$strrchr($replace(%path%,\%filename_ext%,),\))Cover.jpg)
  ,
  $puts(art_path,$get(foo_path)'images/'$get(config_name)'/cover/nocover.png')
  )
)

anyone know how to prevent playback statistics custom from bringing foobar to the front when updating tags?  Occasionally, not all the time, foobar will come to the front when updating the playcount.

So I figured out this only happens when foobar is behind some windows, not when it's minimized.  For example, I will have foobar playing (not minimized) and be surfing in firefox.  When playback statistics custom updates the count (doesn't matter which setting, i.e. after 60 seconds, 50% etc) foobar will come to the front and I won't be able to click on anything until I click on foobar.  If foobar is minimized, this does not happen.  What other methods are there to update the little numbers by the songs besides psc?

Edit:  It had something to do with the tags themselves, I resaved them in mp3tag and the problem went away

When you change window settings like add the sidebar, close the CSP and what not, how do you save these settings so you don't have to do them every time to open up foobar?

Also, I can't for the life of me tell why my collection is sorted this way: I am using artist/album:

Hi,
First - i think this is a great layout for foobar. Thanks for this great work!:)
Second - i found a "little" problem (i think so).

The Problem ist the following:
When you press "File -> Open" then foobar opened the "CD-Device-Menu" and not the "HDD-Device-Menu". I think this is wrong or!?

Hello Kameleon community,
I am using Kameleon for some while now and I like it a lot. Thanks a lot to Br3tt for this really amazing skin. I just have one thing I cannot get to work for me, that is the way Kameleon presents compilations. I would like to have a number of songs displayed as belonging to one album Like
ALBUMNAME
Song 1 - Artist 1
Song 2 - Artist 2
Therefore I am using the "ALBUM ARTIST" tag. Here is what I get when doing so:

(http://home.arcor.de/christian.lugauer/foo_prob.jpg)

I guess my tagging of the files is correct but I am not experienced enough to find out what I have to tweak iside Kameleon to get the desired result. Could anybody point me in the right direction ?

Thanks a lot !!

Hi all.

I really need help with the Info Painel.   


I have some extra information in my music tags that I would like to visualize in foobar, so I added some extra lines to the info panel.

(See picture (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3580/3485080950_08d8a1b367_o.jpg))


Problem 1: In some screens I would need a way to scroll around the INFO panel cause they are to small. And even when the info painel is minimized, there are no way to see all information. Is there someway to get a mouse wheel scroll or even a scrollbar?

Problem 2: Some information is too long to the panel, so it shows a "...". Is there someway to show all information, using, for example, a new line below.

I'll be very very very grateful.

Thanks a lot!

I do have a problem here. How to rescale the background image to, say 110% zoom in instead of the current one which zoom in by large scale. I would like to see the entire album though. Maybe 110-130%.

BTW, is it possible to add a banner for .m4a?

Only problematic when the folder has multiple images, it just chooses the first one I think.

Would be nice if I could script it to look for cover/folder.jpg/png first, and then move onto *.jpg/.png

I'm still using Curacao (I know it, I know it, but I still haven't found time) but there's an easy way to replace an existing "tab" in the left panel.

With rightclick-->settings in the left panel you can change the name to eg. "BIO" in the script and modify the commands (have a look at it, you will see what I mean).
With Preferences-->Columns UI-->Layout you can replace the existing Plugin (Track Info Mod I think) with the Bio-Plug. Have a look at the parent Panel Stack Splitter Settings also ('-> INF' panel).

A good way for learning a little bit modifying is to backup your fb2k configuration, reading the scripts in the settings, reading threads for examples and trying it for yourself. First, with Ibiza I wasn't able to modify anything (Br3tt knows what I mean ), and now I can add some simple additional buttons and panels.

Edit: typo

Can someone explain me how and where i can choose :

- To have only these two panels on start up
- To disable the big cover in background on start up
- To display the "artist - album" under the cover on the right planel
- to adjust the transparancy of the plastic cover aspect
- To adjust the size of the command button (play stop forward ...)

Re hello,

Another question:

Is it possible for foobar to display "various artist" with a syntax, when it detect many artists from a compilation ?

By default foobar display the artist of the first track of the comilation 

the albumlist plugin for winamp does it perfectly, i hope foobar needn't a tag (albumartist) for that ! 

Thx

I've organized my coverart like this:
d:/%artist%/cd cover/%album%.jpg

I've set the extended variables in order to display the cover in the right panel and in the jewel case on the left.
I've copied from the Br3tt's guide this setting for chronflow:

Code: [Select]
$ifgreater($strstr($lower($if2(%kameleon_coverart_path%,'default')),'default'),0,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)$replace($if(%kameleon_coverart_filename%,$lower(%kameleon_coverart_filename%),'folder.jpg'),'%band%',%band%,'%performer%',%performer%,'%discogs_artist_id%',%discogs_artist_id%,'%path%',%path%,'%directoryname%',%directoryname%,'%filename_ext%',%filename_ext%,'%filename%',%filename%,'%album artist%',%album artist%,'%artist%',%artist%,'%album%',%album%,'.*','.jpg'),$if($stricmp($right(%kameleon_coverart_path%,1),'/'),%kameleon_coverart_path%,%kameleon_coverart_path%'/')$replace($if(%kameleon_coverart_filename%,$lower(%kameleon_coverart_filename%),'folder.jpg'),'%band%',%band%,'%performer%',%performer%,'%discogs_artist_id%',%discogs_artist_id%,'%path%',%path%,'%directoryname%',%directoryname%,'%filename_ext%',%filename_ext%,'%filename%',%filename%,'%album artist%',%album artist%,'%artist%',%artist%,'%album%',%album%,'.*','.jpg'))


but in the chronflow I still see the nocover.jpg, instead of the cd/s coverart.
Where's my fault?

Thanks!

Thanks Falstaff for this wonderful foobar configuration 

I’s really perfect for managing a large library of music ! I like it very much !

I have some clarification in this regard :

What setting is changed in Foo_Exvar by the variable : kameleon_disable_path_info

In the left panel "STAT", the statistics wasn't displayed, but they are present in the "INFO" panel. Is it good ?

In the "ELPlaylist" : the popup linked with %comment% does not appear when I move the mouse over it ? Yet my tags are correct !
In the right Graphical Browsers the popup appear perfectly   

Thank you for taking your valuable time to help me to solve its small annoyances.

Sorry for my very bad English

Un très grand merci pour ce travail de titan...

Hi
at the moment the alphabet below the album art selecter only displays letter of artists in my now playing list.
i normally just use the album selector to pick an album and listen to that so my playlist will often only have one artist in and therefore only display one letter bellow.

if this is the normal way for it to work, i was wondering if its possible to make it so the whole alphabet is displayed, (abc...xyz) and then i could just click on the letter and it would move the album selector to that letter in the library.

i hope this sums up what i mean if not just say and ill try and explain it better. Also i tried to find this in preferences but couldn't see it anywhere.

thankyou

To display Popups in ELPlaylist on Track mouseover if %comment% exists (display the comment in the popup) :

Right click in the "ELPlaylist", then choose "Settings ..." and select "enable hover" in the tab "behaviour"...see below...



In the left panel "STAT", the statistics are still not displayed, but unlike the tutorial  I did not the window "Play Counter" and the window "Playback Statistics Custom" in foobar - Preferences ! Somebody knows why?

Is there a way to make this great, great config to show embedded covers?!? I suppose it's ut to components used, because otherwise it doesn't make sense that not to be inculded. but im really not so well educated in foobar, so if anyone can help, that would be great.

But i got a little but annoying problem. It seems, like I cant get the Library Viewer Playlist to work with Album List Panel, same for Quicksearch. Both always create new playlists instead of overwriting the old ones so that e.g. for every click in the Album List Panel you have to delete a playlist.

I tried everything in the panels' options but can't figure it out.

Any help would be really apreciated

I want to do this using comment tag, and I did. However, how can I have the comment contents be displayed in the same style as the artist contents (the grayed out color, not the dependence on a difference between another tag)

Actually I'd also like to display it in subscript too.

Hi I recently found this thread and I'm new to foobar2000.

I've seen how the UI looks in this Kameleon from the screenshots and I really do like how it looks.

I think Br3tt has done a very excellent job in creating this and I can't wait to try it out.

I was reading the documentation and it mentions that it is for earlier versions of the foobar2000.

My question is this, will this still work as described without breaking anything on the latest stable foobar2000?

I thought I would ask before I went for installation.  More than likely I will just try it and see what happens, but if someone could also answer this I would appreciate that.  Thanks in Advance and job very well done Br3tt.

Kameleon is not made for v1.0, you should switch to a configuration that's adapted to work well with v1.0. I could suggest the latest version of Xchange3 by Br3tt, it's a bit similar to Kameleon.

now i have a feeling these buttons are manged by wsh pannel mod
but can not find out how to edit them unless its done through

Try right clicking on one of the buttons to take you to the correct place. They appear to be in a TrackInfo Mod panel. If right clicking fails, try to locate the panel in the columns ui layout tab. To add a button try copying a preexisting $button line, paste it in the //PerTrack section and change the x value (the first number in the line) and the image paths to the new images. You may need to ensure that the panel is being drawn wide enough to accommodate an additonal button.

var g_btn_img1 = gdi.Image(fb.FoobarPath + "images\\kameleon\\bg\\volbutton31e.png");


Thank you for your help, marc2003! Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to work, either.
I've also tried
Code: [Select]
var g_btn_img1 = gdi.Image(fb.FoobarPath + "\\images\\kameleon\\bg\\volbutton31e.png");
but to no avail.

Maybe the problem is not only the path, but also that interface.api and jscript.api maybe "orphaned" in the main component directory after moving all user components. In WSH Panel Mod settings they are set as

Code: [Select]
api.vbscript = $(dir.component)interface.api
api.jscript = $(dir.component)jscript.api;$(dir.component)interface.api


On a side note, the image code uses GDI+, which under Windows 7 is not natively supported anymore (http://www.windows7taskforce.com/view/3607) and thus slow. Maybe it could be replaced with something that uses Direct2D or WPF?

Would be best to ask author via his website or via deviant art.

See post #702

This is the correct thread, however I do believe, based on author's comments, you will get better response directly from his site.

Hey,

I solved the Problem with the diespeared Volume Button in this way:

Code: [Select]
// foobar path, SHOULD be replaced
var g_path = fb.TitleFormat("%foobar_path").eval();
var g_btn_img1 = gdi.Image(g_path + "skins/kameleon/images/bg/volbutton31e.png");
var g_btn_img2 = gdi.Image(g_path + "skins/kameleon/images/bt/voldot.png");
var g_btn_img3 = gdi.Image(g_path + "skins/kameleon/images/bt/voldot.png");
var g_btn_img4 = gdi.Image(g_path + "skins/kameleon/images/bt/voldot.png");
var g_btn_img5 = gdi.Image(g_path + "skins/kameleon/images/bt/voldot.png");


Hope this helps others.
I still use Kameleon most of the time, besides testing some other skins.

Show the rating is broken for me. I can set the rating and it´s shown on the properties, but not shown on the panel.
Anyone an idea how to fix it?
I solved that by replacing %rating% with $meta(rating).

Hi,

I use and love this for many years now, thx for this nice peace of work.
But now I have a little problem. I just want to replace the lyrics show panel with the newer v3 one (foo_uie_lyrics3). Unfortunately I didn´t know how.
It´s a lot of time gone, since I customized "my" Kameleon with my wishes. Too much time I´m afraid. 
I forgot almost all about how it goes.
I hope this isn't to difficult and someone could help.

Here is the latest one I got:
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=09023245214864236930

But it was made for an older version of foobar2000, v0.9, so I'm not sure it still works with current version.

I have been using Kameleon for TEN YEARS. I don't need to say that I love it. Kameleon honours its name. Kameleon + good sharp HD art looks gorgeous. For this reason, I have kept using it all these years. I don't think about finding other 'skin'/config., I think about finding HD art for my music collection. Many thanks br3tt, for sharing your excellent work.
