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


of course it does ! not due to ELPlaylist or SCPL but playback foobar option to set :

Ah, thanks. I've been developing my config on another copy of foobar and didn't notice that

New version is out..

Big thanks for ENTER hotkey. After asking for it and 3-4 hours later, I got it.. THAT was fast

Some glitches (not sure the author already knew it or not) : Play a track in playlist that have scrollbar then switch to playlist that don't have scrollbar, graphical glitches appear at where scrollbar should be.

How do I enable the enter hotkey? :S I tried adding a hotkey with "play", but it doesn't work.
Sorry for asking so many questions

Hi !

I have a little problem with the playlist that i can't figure out how to make it work 

I want to add the %artist% tag if the tag %track artist% exists, I have played with the next code, but as you can see the letter spacing isn't constant (I first tried with a simple $add but it's even worst)!!!
for reference I have in the duration field the "$len(%artist%)" value for each song.

Code: [Select]
$setcoordinate(1) 
$font(Calibri,8,bold)
$drawtextex(%tracknumber%,%TN.MARGIN%,0,$sub(%el_width%,10),%el_height%,$get(tn.color),vcenter  end_ellipsis)
$drawtextex($if(%track artist%,%artist% » ,),%TRACK.MARGIN%,0,$sub(%el_width%,50),%el_height%,%ARTIST.COLOR%,vcenter  end_ellipsis)
$font(Calibri,10,bold)
$drawtextex(%title%,$if(%track artist%,$add($mul($len(%artist%),4),60),%TRACK.MARGIN%),0,$sub(%el_width%,300),%el_height%,$get(text.color),vcenter end_ellipsis)

Sorry, but your script is way strange.
You give your tracknumber the whole width of the playlist, except 10 pixels.
And adds 60 pixels with the amount of characters from the artist tag in pixels multiplied with 4 as left position from the title string.
Then you substracts 300 pixels from the playlists width as width of the title string.
I don't understand it.

But i would try (according to your strange script, you will know why you do it that way ):
$font(Calibri,8,bold)
$drawtextex(%tracknumber%,%TN.MARGIN%,0,$sub(%el_width%,10),%el_height%,$get(tn.color),vcenter end_ellipsis)
$drawtextex([%track artist% » ],%TRACK.MARGIN%,0,$sub(%el_width%,50),%el_height%,%ARTIST.COLOR%,vcenter end_ellipsis)
$drawtextex(%title%,$add($gettextwidth([%track artist% » ]),%TRACK.MARGIN%),0,$sub(%el_width%,300),%el_height%,$get(text.color),$font(Calibri,10,bold)vcenter end_ellipsis)

There maybe a better way for sure, but this is what i made from your script in a few minutes now

Anyone know of a way to do an inline font-colour change?

I'm trying to have independently defined colours for the album names and date, and up until now I've had to drawstring a completely new absolutely positioned album date just to change font colour of 6 characters!

Current code:

Code: [Select]
// ALBUM
$font($get(fnt2),6,)
$drawstring(
$upper($iflonger([%album%],27,$cut(%album%,27)'...',[%album%]))
,2,17,350,25,$get(txtclr2),,glow:1:115-115-115:1)  

// DATE
$font($get(fnt2),6,)
$drawstring(
$upper(['('%date%')'])
,
add$($gettextwidth($iflonger([%album%],27,$cut(%album%,27)'...',[%album%]),),5)
,17,350,25,$get(txtclr3),,glow:1:75-75-75:1)


But, the gettext function is somewhat inaccurate and the positioning of the ['('%date%')'] function is not uniform:




Is there any way I can solve the problem?

i setup a hierarchical group with %genre%|||%artist%|||%album%. the question is i can only collapse/expand album group, higher level groups(genre, artist) are not collapse.

what i want is make it works like an album list with custom layout which album list can't.

is there any way to implement this by ELPlaylist or other plugins?

Don't know if this is a DarkOne question or an ELPlaylist question...  I'm fairly new to Foobar and these components.

I'm running DarkOne 1.4.1 with ELPlaylist 0.6.4.2 beta

Some but not ALL of my albums list in some seemingly random order in the ELPlaylist instead of using the Track Number for the sort.  See image below for an example of what I mean and what the ELPlaylist settings are at present:



I checked the file tags themselves and they are set to the correct track numbers for the album in question.

I've also tried sort format to %tracknumber% but no luck getting the ELPlaylist to display correctly.

I'd appreciate any thoughts on what I might check or change to solve this issue.

Thanks!

I guess the filenames of these albums tracks doesn't begin with the tracknumber. But they will be sorted like they are sorted in the folder they're stored in (with the default %path_sort% setting).

You could try the following in sort format:
%album artist% - %date% - %album% - %tracknumber% - %title%

Hi tedgo:  Thanks for the idea.

In the case of the particular album displayed Iron Maiden "Best Of The Beast" the filenames do in fact start with track numbers, prefixed with zero, like this "05 - Where Eagles Dare.mp3".  Becuase this particular album is a 2-CD set ripped into the same directory I have two files prefixed with 01, so I also have "01 - Virus.mp3"

I also seem to have a similar and probably related problem where if the MP3 files in a directory do NOT start with track numbers, ELplaylist lists them in alphabetical order.

So it seems that my ELplaylist is sorting using the filenames in alphabetical order rather than track number tag.

I tried changing my 'sort format' with your recommendation and no change to the albums that I had previously noted were scrambled in the ELplaylist.  After changing the sort format I pressed the "APPLY", then "OK" button, closed the ELplaylist settings dialog, closed Foobar, opened Foobar, and saw the same behavior where tracks seem to be listed in order of the filenames, rather than using the track numbers.

Obviously the easy answer would be to go and change the filenames to be prefixed with track number, but WHAT A PAIN!

I'm still hoping there is an ELplaylist solution.  Something involving sort order using tracknumber in preference to filename.

You have to apply the setting made in sort format
Go to the "behaviour" tab in ELPlaylist and enable "Show" for "Sort" in context menu.
Then rightclick on your ELPlaylist and choose "Sort --> preset default".

If all incoming files are sorted the wrong way, go to Preferences --> General --> "Sort incoming files by" and enter the sort format i posted above here.

Its possible with foobar2000, too...
Very easy with "file operations --> Rename to ..."
No need for mp3tag

foobar novice here.i am using kameleon 1.1.what i would like to do is sub group all albums from the same artist under the artist header.so that there is only one entry for each artist with all their albums under the same artist upon expanding.i see that putting only artist under group works but of course the albums are not sorted.also how to remove the artist name in the track listing,so that only the track name shows.thanks much.

Hi tedgo:

I appreciate your help.  I tried this and it did not solve the problem either.  It is curious that I was unable to get either or your ideas to solve the problem.

So I decided to take the easy way out and use Foobar "File Operations" to rename all my music files to prefix the track number.

That solved the order problem in ELPlaylist.

It's the best way for sure 
But maybe very time consuming on big libraries...

I don't understand why the sort incoming files by doesn't solve the problem, though...
But existing playlists have to be sorted manually (they're not "incoming" but "present" ).

 New version out: 0.6.5b

A new dawn for foobar2000!. Now you can have more than one playlist displayed at the same time. With the new feature you can either select to have the playlist follow the active one or set it to always display a certain playlist.

My config now has a 'Now Playing' which I play from and a 'Selected' playlist that I use to browse my collection ie the active one.

Many, many thanks to the developer for this. I can finally use foober how I want to rather than having to put up with 90% satisfaction.

Thank-you.

ooohooo !!

i'll try it now  thanx for the news and thanx to the dev !

EDIT: ok, it works fine, but interest is very limited, i don't see in what it's better than swapping to another existing playlist ... and no action possible to send tracks from a playlist to another in order to fake a libray view with an elp panel ...

Been playing with the latest version and I'm very happy with it. There are however a few things I'd like to be addressed;
1) Context menu entries for Select All, Remove (delete all selected) and Crop (delete all not selected). The existing ones only work with the active playlist.
2) Make the row height a variable like row number for group header. This would allow the current playing track to have a wider row for extra info.
3) Correct the problem of Library tree selected tracks initially appearing selected.
4) Make most of the configuration on the behaviour tab configurable per script/group by name

Thanks again for this plugin.

Hi!

I know that somebody maybe asked this before, but i think it was not answered.

I'm using two level grouping with this format:
%album artist%|||%directoryname%
When collapsing album (directoryname) groups, tracks are hided. ok.
But when collapsing artist level groups, the subgroup headers are not hided.

So is there a way to hide them too?
If this is not possible, then I have a feature request to the author

thanks

Does anyone know if it's possible to use $getimagewidth/height with the artreader? Those functions seem to require a path, so I don't know how to make them get the width/height of embedded art.

is there a way to sort every time the playlist is refreshed (like an auto-sort)? because right now you have to right-click->sort->sort type every time the playlist changes

I have OCD when it comes to displaying my music in the order I want.
