3 / for the radio stream :
      -   Download and extract folder : https://mega.nz/file/ucdEwS4B#zvk3AXITioDTltWPMdU8o0cC9D4A75TeSHIlN4zk1hg
      -   in Display / albumart add the following lines :

              folder.*
              $if($strstr(%path%,'://'),F:\Radio\%album%.png)
              $if($strstr(%path%,'://'),F:\Radio\%album%.jpg)
              $if($strstr(%path%,'://'),F:\Radio\%album%.webp)
 NOTE : MY RADIO FOLDER IS IN F:\
 PUT YOUR FOLDER RADIO WHERE YOU WANT AND CHANGE THE 3 LAST LINES TO MATCH
 EXAMPLE :   You put the radio folder in c:\ so :   $if($strstr(%path%,'://'),C:\Radio\%album%.png) etc.....

I get headaches a lot, so I used very low-contrast colors. I also prefer not seeing album art, and instead just enjoying the music. Lastly, I love having a lot of information and tracks visible at once to help me queue up the perfect track list for the session. The area below the playlist is the queue viewer.
Think millionaire, but with cannons.

It's just 3 panels in a horizontal splitter.

JSP3 (track info + playback time bound to the right hand side)
Waveform minibar
JSP3 (length bound to left hand side + playback buttons)

You can configure CUI to have a divider width of zero (layout>misc tab) and then configure the waveform seekbar to use the same background as the JSP3 panels. Then it blends together to look as if it was all-in-one.

Thanks for the reply.
I thought you had a new script to generate the waveform seekbar with ffmpeg, similar to your spectrogram sample.

This is my actual configuration, invented for similar reasons:


But about a year ago I am started to develop a brand new concept based on minimalist, screenless and wireless music listening, that might be useful for audiophiles and blind users too. Unfortunately foobar is not developed on this minimalistic way: Boom Audio Player stands much closer to my idea, but I think better to start from a blank sheet without any restriction.
I found the optimal remote device in wireless numpad, because it is a standard, cheap, highly stable remote solution with long battery life, and works driverless on windows and android systems too. The screenless feature could be done with the similar way as modern aircrafts and locomotives audio feedback control systems. There are many online free text-to-speech services to create voices with album names, and these can placeable in every folders with the same filename such cover images works. It must be a special mode (I called it "navigation mode") that helps with voice feedback to find the demanded album(s) adding to playlist.
All my developed stuff (graphic design, algorithm, sample collection) I offer it for free to anyone who is interested and can help to realizing in any way.

I like it!
Thank You. Here is my config file, You can build this theme newly with this, and install Waveform Seekbar and Facets plugins.
theme.fth
Unfortunately I can't find better way to build a useable structure for my music library than writing a personal label in "comment" ID3 tag, such "CLASSICAL" or "80'S". Facets is a rather old component, it needs to be filled "Artist name", "Album title" and "Date" ID3 tags for usable label displaying and sorting :-I

"theme.fth" file isn't working without "configuration" and "user-components" directories - sorry, here is the complete pack:

Finally made the move to 64 bit. No more reliance on old, 32 bit only components. I've been working on my columns to present all of the information I care about elegantly, and I've never been more satisfied with my Columns UI layout than I am now. Colors are low-contrast but still easy to read to prevent eye strain, and no album art is visible since I don't like it usually. There are no tabs to get lost in either, just playlists and the Album List. My primary focus is on usability and playback control. Lastly, I have my playback queue below the playlist view. This is the one thing I'm not totally happy with, since it isn't a Columns UI component and any time I change my playlist columns I have to realign the queue viewer's columns manually to match.

Further depth on some unusual columns:
"Skip" displays a pictogram on any track that will be automatically skipped with the "skip track" component active. The "Last" column next to it shows when a track was last played within the last 8 hours, which coincides with my skip track script. The check mark in the list index "№" column shows which track I have set to stop playback after. The circles instead of a dash next to some tracks are just markers I made based on track ratings so I can find certain tracks I like easier, and if I rate a track 5 it shows a diamond instead and will not be skipped.
