The config is really great. Only thing that I noticed is that I'm missing buttons and lots of them.

Btw wouldn't it be better if you used %appdir%/foobar2000/ instead of C:/Program Files/foobar2000? Simply because Windows names the program folder differently in every language.

You need to put the folder called curacao in the images folder in the Foobar main folder, so C:\Program Files\foobar2000\Images\curacao

just read help files available on my site before asking question, all is explain (i hope).

This thing is great no problems in setting it up which is a good start the only problem is when switching to MilkDrop for the AVS I get The plugin crashed during initialization.

Sorry to disappoint but I'm not that dumb. The image folder is present. Well actually it's in C:\Programme\foobar2000\... since I'm using the German version of XP. But I changed the path (changed the foo_path definition to C:/Programme/foobar2000/) in PSS so I hope that would solve this problem.

I guess this isn't a Vista x64 friendly theme? I follow the instructions and when I click to play a song it immediately crashes.

not a curacao issue, but shpeck issue, be sure that your version of milkdrop is compatible with the version of your Shpeck component !

Looks really pretty, and it was incredibly easy to set up, really well done on that. It's kind of annoying that you have to create a playlist to view all of your music though, kinda defeats the purpose of having a library. There are no ultra customizable media library viewers though, so it seems to be the only solution.

Another thing, how do you get that exact visualization up? I have milkdrop 2 installed, don't know how to pick a particular vis though.

Cheers!

You should be using Milkdrop 2.0e really, what version do you have?

components make vista x64 crash, not the config dude.

I zipped up my complete Plugins folder which has got the latest versions of Milkdrop 2 and 8,606 presets (literally  )

It's about 65MB RAR'd down to 17MB, if anyone wants it...  http://rapidshare.de/files/40889036/Plugins.rar.html (http://rapidshare.de/files/40889036/Plugins.rar.html)

I just noticed. I changed it in a ton of different places. A hell of a lot of work. Especially if you have to do it frequently :\.

Looks great though once it's done.

Not sure if I'll keep it. Ibiza doesn't look as fancy but is easier to get working under my circumstances.

A shame that it's not possible to put a master setting for album, artist and foobar paths and let all parts of the config grab them from there.

which components would that be then? how would I figure out which one(s) it could be?

Is it possible to have all the unfocused groups collapsed like in Ibiza? Makes scrolling through the playlist a lot faster.

I get this a few times now after playing music.....I did a clean install and now it seems to be working fine except for the below crash that occurs. DEP keeps closing foobar2000 down....I tried to exclude it and Vista tells me this program needs DEP and I can't exclude it.

Hmmm, I changed all the foo_path and pictures path but I don't get Track Info and artist picture working. :/

Nevertheless Curacao looks really really great, but it's less practical for me.


Very nice work Br3tt.

I zipped up my complete Plugins folder which has got the latest versions of Milkdrop 2 and 8,606 presets (literally  )

It's about 65MB RAR'd down to 17MB, if anyone wants it...  http://rapidshare.de/files/40889036/Plugins.rar.html (http://rapidshare.de/files/40889036/Plugins.rar.html)


It seems you will need Shpeck 0.3.0 Beta 2 to use Milkdrop 2.0e now the problem being it does not dock into the space it just floats in it's own window how do I change that?

Close it, right click the AVS panel and select Milkdrop 2 to auto start, then close Foobar and open it again and it should be docked in the window. Double clicking it makes it go full screen and double click again puts it back in Curacao. Also you can right click on the Back/Forward buttons on the edge of the AVS window and select appearance, then turn off the titlebar to get rid of the top white bar

You can also go into Splitter settings and choose which of the windows (ALB, ART, AVS, INFO) you want to be open when Foobar starts, I have AVS as my default window

Mmmm you got a diagram on where you need to click to edit the splitter setting for the AVS? Also this thing will not sit where I tell it lol

--Edit--

Defaulted the plugin now does as it's told.

I disabled DEP on my Vista x64 and for the moment everything seems to be ok, I just wish someone could figure out which plugin is triggering DEP to kill foobar2000 process.

Another issue I see is at the top where you can click on a letter of the alphabet to jump to that part of the playlist, when I start foobar it shows as a white bar, and only after I mess around with the 3 setting button on the top left area of the program do the letters appear again.

Just installed Curacao and... it really looks amazing!! I really like the fact that you can have graphical browser, album art, lyrics, etc.. in the same view. The properties, open folder 'buttons' are also very helpful.

Is there a way to change the size of the playlist switcher drop-down panel? It's too small to show all my playlists with lenght, size. I like to switch playlists pretty often - is it possible to assign a hotkey to show/hide this panel?

Support for the official playback-statistics component would make Curacao the config best ever!

I have the same problem
it is just a floating window
I follow your advice but it is still a floating window and in foobar it says that only one Milk drop can be launch so it just desactivate the one in foobar and let the window works.

Go to MilkDrop 2.0e Configure-> Uncheck FullScreen and Desktop Mode, check Integrate with winamp skin. I think the problem will be solved.

I love this but since I use XP x64, my folder is named "Program Files (x86)". So, many of the buttons aren't showing.

Looks hot though. Thanks.

Edit: I figured it out. Path changed in the splitter settings. All is well.

I installed winamp and foobar in c:\program files and I am running Vista x64 and so far no side effects other than the "bug" I reported earlier about the alphabetical little menu thing at the top showing up as a white bar until I mess with the 3 buttons on the top left section of the window and they it appears ok.

Post by: Onkel Andy on 2008-11-23 10:51:11
This is a cool config here.. thanks for your great work again!
I have just some suggestions...
a) Artist path. Maybe to help others setting up the path you could add this additional version to the Z:/artist path as a comment: $puts(artist.path,$replace($replace(%path%,$directory(%path%),),%filename_ext%,*.jpg))
It checks for any jpg in the parent folder of an album.
b) foo_path. Is there no way to put that as one global variable somewhere/somehow /in an ini-file or whatever). It's a little bit tough to find all instances of the variable definition...
c) Did you take a look at the "mouseover"-function of ELplaylist? Would be very cool if you implemented it somehow, i.e. when you move the mouse over the group header, there could be some additional info with a picture of the artist or whatever..
d) Any chance to make the uppermost line with the "breadcrumb" now playing track a little bit more interactive? Thought it would be cool to use the seperate entries as a filter for example. When you click on the artist name all songs by that artist are listed in a new playlist.

Thanks again!

Post by: Falstaff on 2008-11-23 10:51:21


The config is really great. Only thing that I noticed is that I'm missing buttons and lots of them.

Btw wouldn't it be better if you used %appdir%/foobar2000/ instead of C:/Program Files/foobar2000? Simply because Windows names the program folder differently in every language.

You need to put the folder called curacao in the images folder in the Foobar main folder, so C:\Program Files\foobar2000\Images\curacao


Sorry to disappoint but I'm not that dumb. The image folder is present. Well actually it's in C:\Programme\foobar2000\... since I'm using the German version of XP. But I changed the path (changed the foo_path definition to C:/Programme/foobar2000/) in PSS so I hope that would solve this problem.


Additionnal help file (image) added on my website

here is the direct link, i have indicated panels that contain the foo_path variable that you may have to change

Post by: London Mike on 2008-11-23 14:16:15
Here’s a tip for getting the best Artist Art for Curacao, something I’ve learnt through using this for over a month…

Curacao works best with large widescreen art displayed as its background. Very often it’s hard to find good Artist pics in this format, but there is actually a huge source of them out there already, Band Wallpaper pics. This normally means that a fan has spent hours finding the best pics of their favourite band and then converted them into 1024 x 768 Wallpaper images, which are just perfect for Curacao

So go to Google images and search for Led Zeppelin Wallpaper for example and see what I mean

Or even better, convert the new Google Artist Art search button to do it for you, just go into Run Services in F2K Preferences and change the Google Artist Photo path to
Code: [Select]
http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=$replace(%artist% Wallpaper,' ','+')&btnG=Recherche+d%27images&gbv=2

Hope that helps some of you

I disabled DEP on my Vista x64 and for the moment everything seems to be ok, I just wish someone could figure out which plugin is triggering DEP to kill foobar2000 process.


Can you tell me where to switch it off? I have the same problem



I just did a google search for Vista disable DEP (I think I spelled out DEP) and found the following site

Br3tt,

Thanks for releasing this great config!  I really like the style and how adaptable it is. 

I had a couple questions.  Is there a setting to make the playlist remember where it last was when open/closing foobar?  If i close foobar, the playlist goes back to the beginning.  I realize this is probably a ELPlaylist setting, but am not sure where to find it. 

There are times when just opening foobar for the first time that the buttons are missing.  Also, the A-Z strip at the top starts out white until i click the min/max button on the lyrics panel. 

Thanks again!

you mean sending track (an album why not ) to a specific playlist ?

for this, i use foo_utils.dll, download it (find it before ) it adds a context menu Edit Other that bring these features ...

when you restart foobar, position in playlist is lost, right, but foobar remember what is the last played song, just click PLAY button to be positionning well

You can resume playback on foobar startup too, go to Prefs, Playback at bottom, check resume playback after restart will show it fine

Here is how, right click on the El playlist, Go To Settings, Then go to  Group Header tab, Scroll down untill you see

Normally I use $stripprefix instead but I've noticed that if you use an Auto playlist with 'force sorted' ticked then it does not work. The other frustration is that if you use $swapprefix or $stripprefix then use the 'T' to search it pics up THE rather than second words starting with T, any way to stop that?

You basically need to change from %artist% to $stripprefix(%artist%) everywhere you're sorting, so you can force sort your autoplaylist by that, and sort your graphical browsers (album pics, artist pics, and artist initial above the playlist) by it as well. That way the initials bar takes the letter A from The Artist, rather than T.

I had an idea for a plugin, although I'm not sure if it's possible, and the more I think about it the less I think it'll work. Basically you'd have some central place where you can specify what to sort by when you want to display a list of things, it would make life easier as you'd just need to specify what to display and you wouldn't have to copy sort patterns to a bunch of different places. Not sure how feasible it is though.

Nope, still not searching correctly when using the T button, but I've noticed another problem too, you can not search in ELP by typing letters anymore, I thought it was a problem with the latest version of ELP but it is working fine in IBIZA still. Weird...

I think ELPL searches based on %el_group_format%, so you might need to set it to group by your sort string as well. There is a setting under behaviour to turn on and off find as you type, maybe it's off in Curacao?

Well, I do hope Falstasff will consider returning to the classical album list enabled interfaces in future. This all-library-loaded concept is somewhat questionable to me in terms of usability.
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: elenhil on 2008-11-24 15:28:00
Please, take this as a piece of constructive criticism.

Browsing all your music the way it's implemented in this configuratuion is opposite to true usability. See: you have a global list.

First, the global list (given that it's all collapsed) consists of elements (boxes) with album art on the left and album artist and album title on the right (one above the other). That is, navigating through the list searching for a particular item the first thing a user (given he or she is not Asian or otherwise used to RTL layouts) sees is album art. Which, being a tiny 54px wide, is way too small to be really helpful in easily locating neither the album (even on lower display resolutions) nor (obviously) the artist, but nevertheless it occupies the most significant leftmost position in a line, where properly most important info should be located. So, in terms of search usability (not "eye-candiness") an album art like that is redundant and disturbing. Which it needn't have been, if only it could scale with the screen resolution (and possibly window size too) to keep a reasonable size.

Secondly, the whole config is coded to provide an artist title sorted list. Which is perhaps debatable. But let it be. Even if I agree to browse my library forcedly sorted by album artist, I (and I suppose most of the users) rarely listen to complete discographies. They listen to albums. So it's the albums they ultimately search for. But the first text line (and the first really helpful informative element) a user always sees is album artist's name, being topmost. Why? A user is looking for a particular album title, but the first thing that leaps to the eye (apart from album art) is album artist rather than album title. A piece of information, once the user gets to the artist in question, becomes absolutely redundant to the search. And to make things evem worse, it is aligned at the middle of the box, so that album title is not only below album artist, but lies at the bottom line of the box.

Which produces a sorry picture: of the three main potentially informative elements the single most and really important one  - the album title - is placed in the least significant lower right position after two redundant and insignificant elements. That is absolutely contrary to true usabiliy. A user searching for an album, having located the artist in question, must then browse the list deliverately filtering two out of each three informative elements, and for no apparent reason. Which is to my eyes pure redundancy and info pollution. Which is non at all inevitable, just take a look at classical text list interfaces: once an intermediate category (say, album artist) is located, further information (sorted by other categories like album title) is presented without innecessary repetition of the higher catery (like in Windows Explorer, for example). And your way of presenting this is almost like an Explorer where each file name is forcedly preceded by a folder name. In my opinion, there is no way in of getting rid of this redundant repetition unless you rething the whole layout enabling a classical selective list browsing interface.

Thirdly, the whole library is made selectively accessible through an alphabetical index on top and a graphical album art index below. The alphabetical one fails to index non-latin characters, to begin with. But even having neglected many non-English speaking users (and those who simply listen to foreign music, too), it is still far from usability dealing with purely Latin character content, because picking a letter gets the list centered on the first artist name beginning with that letter. Centered, that is, there are lots of irrelevant lines in the upper half of the list which a user must skip to get to the artist in question, located at the center of the screen. It seemed to me a common practice to place the object of a link of such kind in the beginning (that is, top) of the output area, not its center, because the beginning is always clearly marked by edges, lines, borders, whatever (that is, the eye immediately knows where to focus), while the center is ambiguous with confusingly similar elements above and below and no reference point to focus attention to. It is almost like browsing a document, hitting page down and then trying to find where the beginning of that new page is! It is most stupid for a program to let it scroll half page instead of full page. All the more, it would have been most logical to produce the object of the link (the artist) right below the linking object itself (the alphabetical) index!

And the graphical album art list panel is, as I've already said, too small to be of real help. Plus, the shadowing effect forther reduces the legibility of these already not conspicuous enough pictures. While it is praisable that it tries to stay in sync with the current position in the main list, it does so by placing the selected album at the rightmost end of its line of covers! So it is a complete jumble: picking a letter from the alphabetic index on top you get the object placed in the center of the playlist and in the rightmost corner of the graphical cover list. While it would have been equally most logical to place it leftmost (and topmost in the main playlist panel), allowing the user to further navigate through the albums easily (from top to bottom in the playlist and from left to right in the graphical cover browser panel, making full use of both areas' space).

Once again, please, try to take this as a piece of constructive criticism.

Well i have some thoughts too about Curacao:

first: It needs an album list panel for sure!
second: Some details in the playlist make it difficult to read compared to the wonderful Ibiza and Kung foo! (well, i don't expect from Br3tt to do these changes though..he made the most difficult parts) So i changed these details in my Foobar:

(http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/3487/curacaoko4.th.jpg) (http://img401.imageshack.us/my.php?image=curacaoko4.jpg)(http://img401.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif) (http://g.imageshack.us/thpix.php)

Everyone can do changes like these by his own...Also i agree that album art is just eye candy with so small graphics...

Br3tt thanks so much for this brilliant configuration! Please accept with a positive way our comments...until now almost everything i wanted to be changed was changed by me...but there are some core elements like a bigger playlists browser and configurable list not only for artists but also for albums etc... and most of all an album list panel! Its very basic IMO!

With Curacao, IBIZA and KUNG FOO you have 3 different solutions to the same 'problem' Each offers different ways to do things and each uses a totally distinct and different approach. Ultimately they should be regarded as frameworks to be personalized in any way you feel fit to suit your own needs, just choose which one is closest for you then use it as it is accepting the few features that don't quite suit you, or modify it to fit you 100%. One size can never fit all

Well, I tend to disagree with elenhil and pacman. I'm very happy, that Br3tt has not included Album list. I have come to the conclusion that for me, file browsers like facets or album list are unneccessary because:
I have plenty of autoplaylists to which I'm listening most of the time (like new songs, top songs, songs never played,etc..) and if I want to listen to some specific tunes, quicksearch is my best friend.

Hi there, newbie here but not so new to foobar. After using Ibiza for a while I'm very excited about Curaçao. I got it set up the way I like it except for one thing.
I'm on a 24" wide screen monitor at 1920x1200. At that resolution the album cover seems too small. So I decided to change it from 310x310 to 500x500. Except I run into problems with the album info and rating. I can't seem to find it in the splitter settings how to change the position. Any help is very much apreciated.

Well, I tend to disagree with elenhil and pacman. I'm very happy, that Br3tt has not included Album list. I have come to the conclusion that for me, file browsers like facets or album list are unneccessary because:
I have plenty of autoplaylists to which I'm listening most of the time (like new songs, top songs, songs never played,etc..) and if I want to listen to some specific tunes, quicksearch is my best friend.




Please, take this as a piece of constructive criticism.

...

Once again, please, try to take this as a piece of constructive criticism.


thanx for this constructive mind
but i'll not change my config, i like it like this, it fit perfectly my needs and tastes

Hi there, newbie here but not so new to foobar. After using Ibiza for a while I'm very excited about Curaçao. I got it set up the way I like it except for one thing.
I'm on a 24" wide screen monitor at 1920x1200. At that resolution the album cover seems too small. So I decided to change it from 310x310 to 500x500. Except I run into problems with the album info and rating. I can't seem to find it in the splitter settings how to change the position. Any help is very much apreciated.

310x310 original:

Yes you are right!...well, except the album list...its a basic element that could be added as a secondary mini panel at the left or together with the other lists etc..hmmm..i may try to do it...! anyway!

Unbelievable...every time i look inside Br3tt's code i see even more genious management of variables etc...very smart way of thinking because this way its easier to mod it too! With 2 very simple changes i managed to put a big album list instead of the second "artist list"...great!

can you post a screenshot? I was going to ask if there was anyone who could add the album list panel because graphical browser seems to not like something on my AMD Phenom Quad Core, ATI Radeon 3800HD Series system and Falstaff says its nothing he can do and that plugin isn't maintained anymore which sucks. The only way I see to deal with albums is the little alphabet deal at the top and thats my problem if you see screenshots I have posted in earlier posts. Anyway I guess my only option is the album list panel but I know ZERO about messing with codes and stuff LOL.

Should I understand it like you do not want to acknowledge even the most obvious blunders? Like "centering" the graphical cover browser panel on the rightmost album, forcing the user to scroll each time he or she wants to see the next one (it's almost like a table of contents in an e-book, where you click on a chapter link but get it starting at the bottom of the page, not on top, forcing you to scroll down to read everything beyond its title). These are not regular whinings like "I want this or that eye-candy added", these are objective defects.

It's more than OK to see your errors, man. That would help make a true developer of you. Learn on your errors and think about other people. That's what makes Apple interfaces outstanding.

Sorry to (possibly) sound paternalizing.

"centering" the graphical cover browser panel on the rightmost album => not way to do this, so before saying i don't want, learn about how components works

"objective defects" ==> they are only for some people, like i said, i do not have tsame tastes as yours, and to reply to this : "Learn on your errors and think about other people" if you were here more often, you should know that i often take remarks and optimization in consideration and help as often i can.

"It's more than OK to see your errors, man. That would help make a true developer of you" ==> same as above, i code since i'm twelve and coding is my job for many years now ..., so i know what an error is when i make one, and i fix it ... when possible of course (cf. first point about "centering" ...)

Regards,



PS : if you known me better (as Mr Pacaman for example), you should know that to make please some user, i'll surely add this Album list panel in time ... but not the priority for this week.

Falstaff,

All right, I was wrong to suggest the "centering" issue was your blunder, I take my words back. Still the issue of redundant information in this layout remains.

Rest assured, it's not your coding skills that I question, but your commitment to usability (which is not about satisfying a particular user by adding a certain feature). Usability is objective (and you may have noticed that I've given you logical basis for my ctiticism, which does not get disproved simply by someone saying it "looks" OK for him). Patterns of info significance distribution for left to right readers is objective. Text vs. graphics significance is objective. Object size recognizability dependance is objective (though, of course, somewhat variable).

P.S. And remeber - the difference between a coder and a developer lies in whether one codes primarily for oneself only (and is satisfied by simply "I like it like this") or for the others (and thus binds oneself by far higher standards). Keep up the good work and don't get descouraged by my criticism!

Hi Elenhil,

I'm by job some kind of proffesional critic of critics. So you are pointing out some constructive critics about usability, but your critic lacks itself of usability. I'm not a coder nor a developper not have interest in knowing if what you are saying could be right or not, but the way you present it is quite inoperant. Some suggestions:

1 - try to correct by yourself the layout and show it, "would not it be better this way, friend?"
2 - If you don't know how to code or develop, try to ask: "hey friend, how can I get the things this way"?
3 - If -and only if- you don't receive an answer with these approachs, you can start to think about making assumptions about the philosophy of the coder. 
4 - If you have some hints on philosophy about coding and developing, you'll be able to expose them and be heard positively after some positive interaction. Say, "oh, thanks for your answer, now I understand. I'm tired of developers that don't hear people... etc etc".

Quite paternalizing but older enough,
 
Rozzo

Ps. Thanks Falstaff, Curaçao works fine here and i like it a lot.

elenhil, there really are better ways to get what you want in life, you need to learn a little psychology...

But I think it's important to understand the underlying motivation here, Falstaff designs configs for HIMSELF that he then graciously shares with us, he's not begging anyone to use them or looking for approval. To repeat what I said yesterday, one size can never fit all, and with the 3 configs that Falstaff has done I'm pretty sure that at least ONE of them must be close enough for you to either use as-is or modify to your own requirements. And if you do not like it as it is but you do not have the ability to modify it yourself then you can hardly blame Falstaff for that, can you? He does take constructive criticism and suggestions on board and many ideas do make it into later builds, but that doesn't mean he's going to make lots of basic changes just because one user thinks that it isn't working exactly as he'd like it to

It might be a good time for you to learn some titleformatting

Chill out guys!  There is no need to put posts like "you should do this or that...". Br3tt gives us so many great configurations and his coding is brilliant because if you take a look you will find a way to mod it easily..

Personally I pointed here some "lacks" but it was basically for telling my opinion. I found the way to "patch" the config like i want it, in about an hour...(ok you must know some basic things about Foobar configs and programming, but its never too late to learn and its easy if you are  observant)

Here is a dirty and quick way of replacing a graphical browser (artist list) with album list panel until Br3tt make his update... (sorry if i make a mistake, i did it quickly and it worked, so i don't care if its 100% right) Don't forget to put the album list panel in your components folder first!

Step 1:

Unfortunately, I couldn`t find so useful Filter panel in Curacao as in Kung-foo one (imho), like sorting by genre,artist,album and album list panel of cource
so, I use Kung-foo further, cuz it`s devilishly well done for me
but, Curacao... it has very nice look..
just would to know, are you planning to add something like this for Curacao or not ? (I meant filter panel)

Thanks for criticism of my criticism, guys!

I would have been glad to make a mod of this configuration implementing all of my suggestions (I do know titleformatting just enough not to be that helpless!), but I'll have to stick to my customized KUNG-FOO (for which I am grateful to Falstaff, no doubts) for obvious reasons: this layout is thoroughly designed to work the other way!

It's easy to replace Artist list with Albums list and the main playlist with one from Ibiza, KUNG-FOO or any other or custom playlist viewer layout. But that would inevitably break the alphabetic index and the graphical cover/artist browser, because, as I see it, the whole concept of Curacao's navigation is just a way of overcoming Graphical Browser's shortcomings: it is not a true media library viewer, it is a playlist panel. It cannot pass media library queries and generate playlists itself. Hence the whole library-in-an-autoplaylist concept, right, Falstaff? And neither can Album list panel (or any other media library viewer) act as a contents index of a playlist, it can only create or modify one. That's why Falstaff has used another Graphical Browser panel with its focus/follow functionality as an Artist list.

So there is no sense in taking my suggestion directly to this layout, as it would break the rest of the navigation. I have now realized that sinсe by nature this layout can take none of my suggestions, my criticism could not have been constructive

P.S. Hope no offence is taken, anyway!

P.P.S. Now, on second thoughts, one could replace GB-powered cover browser panel with a media library query capable panel like Chronflow or the alternative one (forgot its name). But that would still not be useful without dramatically increasing its size. Which in turn would make it too large to be integrated into the bottom panel (or, enlarging the panel itself, would make it occupy too much space in the window). Not to mention that it would not substitute the Artist GB panel. No, enlarging the cover browser one would have to make it a separate hidden panel. In short, as I've said, the way I see it implementing my suggestions would take a total remake of this layout.

I was really surprised that i could load your config on my very old machine (ibiza doesn't load on it, caused by the buggy chronflow, which doesn't do it on my pc).

You know, i'm new in configuring foobar, but I'm in to work on my own config.
So i ask you, if it is allowed to use your EL Playlist configuration as "sample" (it is great for learning about using EL Playlist) for doing my own work in my config?
(I love your blinking play-arrow  , although i don't need it in my config)

And in your ibiza config, there is a play.png (74*74).
May i use it too for my own config?

Do i tell you this?

Maybe i don't understand and sorry about that, but why do you think i suggest this as a concept ? it's just a suggestion, and for your information (sic) it's only to explain to newbies how to use auto-playlists in foobar in the quick installation notes file ...

You have to know that there are other ways to generate playlists from the LIBRARY, and i use them a lot, i never (rarely) use Album list panel :
- the quicksearch toolbar
- the Search function in Library menu (queries)

PS : You can make suggestions, give your mind about the config, critics about it, panels that you want be added in it ... but please, don't tell us how we have to use foobar, because this way is offence . Thanx by advance.

Well, I seriously could not suspect anyone of creating a layout where you cannot load an album using mouse only! Which it is, if you don't load the whole library into an auto-playlist first and are thus forced to use only quicksearch or library search! The strangest idea, I should say.

Falstaff,

This is your best layout yet!  Thank you very much.

There are two things that are problematic.  I see that one has been brought up before.  When using the letters along the top to move within the playlist, the "T" button goes to the first "T" in the 'album artist', which for me is "The All-American Rejects".  The problem is this artist is actually in the "A" section.  I still can't figure out where this needs to be changed.  I have tried all sorts of things within the settings.

The second thing deals with the playback stats and lyrics.  It would be good to make a note for all that these are being automatically added as tags to the actual track.  This is something that I personally do not want to have done, rather I would have them stored in the custom database (for playback) or files (for lyrics).  I know those changes can be made by me, but with everything from the downloads those options were set for automatic tagging.  Just wanted to point it out.

Thanks again...love the config!  Beautiful work.

Hi Falstaff,

is there some way of hiding the playlist, so that one gets only the album art/track info/lyrics  on the left panel, and only the background albumart on the right side panel? I think it would be fine, some playlist show/hide command, to have a more graphical/less graphical interface.

when trying to load the 'curacao_1.1a.fcl' file I get this message:

'Need newer foo_ui_columns'.

Weird because I use the version from your website.

F1 gives you the full menu, F4 gives you the preset title

It's better if you double click the AVS panel to make Milkdrop run full screen

follow every step .. really ?

extract for installation notes, first point :

1) Firstly install foobar2000 to its default location of C:\Program Files\foobar2000\
    If you already have Foobar installed to any other location other than this then Curaçao WILL NOT WORK

maybe you have not take care about this important point ?

I have a couple of problems which I've been trying to resolve on my own. Without any luck.

The background image is the cover of the album currently playing.
I have my artist images in "../%artist%/%artist%.jpg"
ie. D:\Musikk\Saturnus\Saturnus.jpg

The blue button above the volume control restarts Foobar or something.

Shpeck only finds AVS, while my other (now uninstalled of course) foobar found everying (Milkdrop etc).

Any tips?

i explain with a video where to change artist and cover paths on my website http://br3tt.online.fr (http://br3tt.online.fr)

the blue button restart foobar, it do what it is designed for

right click on previous/next buttons around the shpeck panel give you a context menu to select which vis to start at foobar launch, just tick Milkdrop instead of AVS

Oh, I thought I saw that that was the preferences button or something, in an overview picture. Nvm then^^

And about Shpeck: It doesn't show up anything else but AVS in the preferences.

Hi Falstaff!
Thanks for the cool improvements in the new version. It gets better and better...
In case you haven't ignored my idea on purpose but just have missed it..
a) Artist path. Maybe to help others setting up the path you could add this additional version to the Z:/artist path as a comment: $puts(artist.path,$replace($replace(%path%,$directory(%path%),),%filename_ext%,*.jpg))
It checks for any jpg in the parent folder of an album.
b) foo_path. Is there no way to put that as one global variable somewhere/somehow /in an ini-file or whatever). It's a little bit tough to find all instances of the variable definition...
c) Did you take a look at the "mouseover"-function of ELplaylist? Would be very cool if you implemented it somehow, i.e. when you move the mouse over the group header, there could be some additional info with a picture of the artist or whatever..
d) Any chance to make the uppermost line with the "breadcrumb" now playing track a little bit more interactive? Thought it would be cool to use the seperate entries as a filter for example. When you click on the artist name all songs by that artist are listed in a new playlist.

"c) Did you take a look at the "mouseover"-function of ELplaylist? Would be very cool if you implemented it somehow, i.e. when you move the mouse over the group header, there could be some additional info with a picture of the artist or whatever.."

that makes me laugh, sorry 

and you ??? you should because popup is coded for curacao, you just have to active it in ELPlyalist settings (mouse over) ... did you took a look at this ?


"d) Any chance to make the uppermost line with the "breadcrumb" now playing track a little bit more interactive? Thought it would be cool to use the seperate entries as a filter for example. When you click on the artist name all songs by that artist are listed in a new playlist."

could be done, why not, i think this is a good idea ... i'll see

"
b) foo_path. Is there no way to put that as one global variable somewhere/somehow /in an ini-file or whatever). It's a little bit tough to find all instances of the variable definition... "

an external plugin (component) is needed for handling global variables (or constants), foo_exvar can do the job, i'll see to implement this for further versions

read again first post :

ColumnsUI Config using Panel Stack Splitter gives Foobar2000 a kick ass look, but these configs are not recommended for newbies to Foobar2000, DefaultUI is a better choice if you don't know how to configure a component and if you don't know a little bit about titleformatting script used in Foobar

--- use at your own risk and matching your foobar capacities ---

so, i think i have given all that you need to use Curacao, excuse me but i'm not here to explain what is a path or what are the globals variables used in foobar, but as i am pleased today, here is the path to use for replacing the artist.path variable declaration

in the 4 places that my video tutorial indicate, for the artist.path variable, just replace my default

path :

'Z:/_artists_/'%artist%'.jpg'

by :

$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)artist.jpg

Thank you, Falstaff and Onkel Andy!

I've changed the operators for artist.path to

$puts(artist.path,$replace($replace(%path%,$directory(%path%),),%filename_ext%,artist.jpg))

and now the artist photo shows correctly.

For anyone that has an issue with the letter filter not going to the right spot when you click a letter (usually "T" is the worst), I was able to finally get it to work.

There are four spots with "%album artist%" that need to be changed to the same way you sort your artists.  I use the following for sorting my artists:

Code: [Select]
$if($strcmp($left(%album artist%,4),The ),$right(%album artist%,$sub($len(%album artist%),4))', 'The,%album artist%)


Right click anywhere on the set of letters, and select "Settings".  In the first field "Group" you will need to replace both instances of "%album artist%"

In the "Draw" section, you will also need to replace the "%album artist%" in the "$puts(ch..." and "$puts(my.char..." sections.  One for each.

Thank you, that worked perfectly

Br3tt, could this go into the code permanently???

You need to replace the SORT and GROUP instances too in EL Playlist to get the same result when typing letters to search 'T' artist names

Glad I could help.

Oh, and don't forget that if you use the sort string I do, then you will also want to put it in the library sort order, as well as the "Sort" section of the Album Art viewer in the lower section.

Second quastion: Where to switch the font-size of the playlist switscher? Its just too small for my eyes...

I've updated foobar to the latest version (0.9.6 beta 5) some plugins don't work with it - fine. But the volume and seek bars have disappeared :/ Why? I mean powerpanels are not compatible but how you all manage to use it then?

You're right guys, I've checked my 1.1 and default 1.0 and there's no WSH volume and no WSH seekbar panels, could it happen because of my deletion of wsh_panels for a couple of foobar launches?
Br3tt, is it possible to copy&paste these two panels from default 1.0 or 1.1? I don't want to lose all my settings and tweaks  I tried copying and pasting panels from the layout menu but then the whole setup messes up

update: solved, but tips appreciated

It's a great config UI but it doesn't quite fit well with my library of 900+ albums. Scrolling through a long list just to playback an album is very painful.

IF only I can configure it to view just a full list of the album. When I double click / single click on an album, then only will the tracklist/playlist for that album will be displayed. Kinda like in IBIZA config.

Eg:
1) I click 'D' on the list 'A-Z'.
2) Display all albums sorted alphabetically and starts with 'D'.
3) I double click on a particular album - Dancemania SPEED SFX.
4) Display the tracklist for the album.

*That way I can save time scrolling through a long list of items. Better yet there is a small album art beside all album name.

So use the letters at the top, or type them into EL Playlist, or select it from the Artist List, or collapse all the groups in EL Playlist, or use the scroll bar...

That's the beauty of Br3tt's configs, there are always several ways to do the same thing and the hardest thing is just getting used to how it all works and what the fastest way is to use the config for you. I have over 600 albums and it works fine for me

That's why someone invented the search function...

About the collapse-group/double-click stuff: Go to ELPlaylist Setting, Behaviour tab and play around a bit.

Thanks for the info but currently the letters at the top is sort by artist. How can I config it to list by album title?

It shouldn't be that hard...you should be able to make the changes yourself, provided you know how the components work and the coding is set up.

I tried to config:

$puts(ch,$lower($left(%album artist%,1)))
$puts(my.char,$puts(ch,$lower($left(%album artist%,1)))$if($stricmp($get(ch),'a'),'a',...........

to

$puts(ch,$lower($left(%album%,1)))
$puts(my.char,$puts(ch,$lower($left(%album%,1)))$if($stricmp($get(ch),'a'),'a',...........

but the letter change to 'a' instead of following the album title.

You need to change the %album artist% in the "Group" section too.  There will be two of them.  Then, you would probably want to change your sort order in the playlist, as well as the album art viewer at the bottom.

Forgive me, I am very new to foobar, I love this layout, one thing I'm having an issue with, I can't seem to get any type of background going.  Mine is just plain black, all else looks good.

I looked at the tutorial about the paths for .jpg's, I use foobar to listen to online streaming music so the folder, artist, etc. .jpg doesn't work for me, also I looked at the static background tutorial, but either way I just get a black background, how can I get an image back there?

Also I changed the google path for large wallpapers, is there a way to get foobar to pull an image and throw it up as the background based on the artist playing?
if not, just any image will do.

thanks in advance!

also, I noticed the large panel on the left will show the artist and song from a shoutcast stream, but the playlist (i think) on the right shows a ? so when I right click run service > google, it googles ? instead of the artist name

thoughts?

all works fine when I play a mp3 located on my hard drive fyi

Version info:
foobar2000 v0.9.6 beta 5
UNICODE
Windows 5.1
I've tried several versions of lyrics plugin, but to no avail. Any ideas?
I have exactly the same problem and changing to earlier versions of foo_uie_lyrics does not help, but it seems to happen when I first change to a new build, if I am just using Curacao in a normal way it never happens. It's a very strange problem

Okay - this is slightly off topic but still relevant and I'm completely stumped.

Does anyone know how to get these Vis working without installing Winamp? I don't have Winamp installed and have no desire to install it - which is the reason I use foobar in the first place.

I've downloaded London Mike's viz zip and that's as far as I can get without crashing foobar

Help.

Plz.

H: instant Hard cut (to next preset)
R: toggle random (vs. sequential) preset traversal
L: load a specific preset (invokes the 'Load' menu)

scroll lock: lock/unlock current preset
(keyboard light on means preset is locked)
(prevents random switch to new preset)
A: aggregate preset - loads a random preset,
steals the warp shader from a different random preset,
and steals the composite shader from a third random preset.
D: cycle between various lock-states for the warp and
composite shaders.  When one of these shaders is locked,
loading a new preset will load everything *except* the
locked shaders, creating a mix between the two presets.

So I can change the preset to something I want, but is it even possible with Milkdrop2 to make a preset the default?  Every time I exit fb2k, when I run fb2k again, Milkdrop2 wants to go back to the same preset it originally started with, not the one I locked previously.

good question, short of removing all but the preset you want I'd like to know if that's possible too. I can lock it with scroll lock but upon restart its back to random.

Thanks for the great plugin and community support for this skin. Been replacing it with my previous custom theme 

I do have a kinda question which I think I can't do it.

How can I resize the popup box size according to the content of the EL Playlist (Popup Track) of a certain song. It poses a problem as each song has various amount of details (id2tag). In other words, how to render the image that uses a dynamic height size? I'm not concerned about dynamic width as my computer width is kinda small.

Eg:
For a song that has a huge amount of details, I would like it to display as the following: (using dynamic height calculated by a certain formula)
--------------------------------
|Album:
|Artist:
|
|...
|Catalog:
--------------------------------

Instead of the following (which uses elplaylist height which is fixed)

--------------------------------
|Album:
|Artist:
|
|...
|Catalog:
|
|

--------------------------------

EL Playlist (Popup Background)

* Some hints that I think need to be done:
1) Calculate and get the dynamic value for the height in Popup(Track). The value of the height is somewhat determined by the number of lines from the last info?
2) Get and used the dynamic value obtained on 1 and use it in Popup(Background) to render the image height.

I guess this question should be posted in the ELPlaylist thread and not here. Anyhow, there are two functions called $gettextwidth and $gettextheight. The problem is that the last one only checks the height of a single text line. But at least adapting the width of the popup would be easy (although u're not interested in that *g*)..
Example:
$puts(width,$add(40,$gettextwidth(%artist% - %album% - %tracknumber% - %title%,Arial,8,bold)))

I'm hoping to get some info on the height, too. But as the background is drawn before the track-info this will be tough stuff, I guess.

Okay - did this, renamed new dll and removed the old dll.

Now all I get is the option to select the "Winamp" as default or switch to custom location but seeing as it doesn't detect Winamp the option to select any folder is greyed out. Refresh list (regardless of what I put in the default folder) just draws a blank.

Based on the info from the shpeck page, you need to hold the SHIFT key while pressing the "..." button.  This will allow you to type a custom path.

What should I configure so that whenever I click on a letter on the menu [A-Z] the playlist will only display album for that letter. I already changing %album artist% to %album% on the setting for the menu.

Currently what it did was when I click a letter, say M, the playlist will show the album starting with M at the center. Other non-M letter album is still displayed.

Second question:
How can I enable the sorting method (preset default) as default every time I click an album from the album panel list for ELPlaylist to sort by album title alphabetically (some album didn't sort by that way). Now I need to right click the option every time I choose an album group/genre. I already change the Group and Sort method of ELPlaylist to %album%.

Go to the "Edit" menu of fb2k, and select "Sort", and then you can either use one of the main options, or use "Sort By" and create your own.  Also, in fb2k's preferences you need to go to the "General" section and change the sort order there.  Yes, it is a bit of a pain, but that should cover your problem.

I use this for sorting my library:
Code: [Select]
$if($strcmp($left(%album artist%,4),The ),$right(%album artist%,$sub($len(%album artist%),4))', 'The,%album artist%) - %album% - %codec% - $num(%tracknumber%,2)


Also, your playlist you are using is probably locked, which is why it will only highlight the letter of the alphabet you choose, rather than show only the letter you choose.
EDIT: Actually, even my unlocked playlist still just highlights, doesn't really filter.  Hmmmm...

It's a nice idea.. but that brings another idea to my mind: what about automatically switching the lyrics-panel between lyrics and let's say an info-panel with details about the songs or whatever based on the existence of a lyrics-tag.. ? Something like that could also be done for the artwork-panel.

Don't know if it's really that cool when the interface changes somehow but it may be a cool feature

Perhaps it is because the Graphical Browser component that is used for the alphabetic index is not a media library viewer, but simply a playlist panel? So it cannot create playlists (like one with only album titles starting with a particular letter).

Actually, I was just able to test something that I thought of earlier...but had been AFK.  If you right-click on the alphabet section, and pull up the settings and select the "Other" tab, you can make a change to the behavior when using "Single-Click" or "Double-Click", etc.  If you change the "Single-Click" behavior from "default" to "send to playlist[replace]" and either use the setting for the playlist name below or change it to whatever you want.  After saving those changes, whenever you select a letter above the playlist view, it will now only show artists (or albums if you go that route) from the letter you choose, not just focus.  Also, you can move from letter to letter without having to go back to your full music library.

EDIT: I should have waited after testing something else.  If you stay in that list when you close fb2k, when you reopen, your alphabet will only have the letter for the group displayed.  You would then need to go back to your full library list to get the full view again.

EDIT #2: The point above is remedied by going to the "File" menu, then go to "Startup Playlist" and select the full library list.  At least that is what I have done.  Now, everything is perfect.  Love this config!

Can the author somehow add some features in this great skin?

An icon that will displayed next to the playcounter on ELPlaylist when there is [Lyric] tab embedded inside the song?


why not


It's a nice idea.. but that brings another idea to my mind: what about automatically switching the lyrics-panel between lyrics and let's say an info-panel with details about the songs or whatever based on the existence of a lyrics-tag.. ? Something like that could also be done for the artwork-panel.

Don't know if it's really that cool when the interface changes somehow but it may be a cool feature



I second that, I have a large collection of classic and instrumental music which obviously don't have any lyrics. So most of the time I don't need the lyrics panel. Having something that will display all the details of a track would be more interesting then "no lyrics found".

Great, Great, upload Br3tt, thanks alot.

Quick noob question that i have never got around too. Whats the best way to go about changing the titlebar style? Mine is still basically the default and it sticks out like a sore thumb. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Actually, if you look at D.Sync's picture posted a few posts up, D.Sync changed the "..." or Info section in the lower right to show track information, rather than Br3tt's very cool "Curacao" image.

I think it might be cool to keep showing the "Curacao" image when in a stopped state, but once playback begins, perhaps show track info.

Great Foobar theme! I like it, but I have a few questions:

1. How do you get the exact visualization and info under the artist/album in the music list?

2.When I play files with this, they are edited in some way (I'm assuming the info is changed); how can I play the files without changing the original file AT ALL?

3.When you highlight a track, it plays that track next instead of the next one after the previously played song. Is there any way to disable this?

4.I can't seem to figure out how to set the number of stars to zero .

Great Foobar theme! I like it, but I have a few questions:

1. How do you get the exact visualization and info under the artist/album in the music list?

You need to make sure that the Milkdrop2 plugin and visualizations are installed, plus you need the NSCRT.dll (from Winamp) placed into the foobar2000 directory.  The rest is a matter of changing settings.  Some of which is discussed in this thread.

2.When I play files with this, they are edited in some way (I'm assuming the info is changed); how can I play the files without changing the original file AT ALL?

Based on the config settings and components that Br3tt includes, by default, lyrics and playback statistics are automatically added as tags.  You would need to go to the settings for both components to change this.

3.When you highlight a track, it plays that track next instead of the next one after the previously played song. Is there any way to disable this?

You would need to change your playback order.  Go to the "Playback" menu, go to "Order" and change it accordingly.  Default plays in order of the list.

4.I can't seem to figure out how to set the number of stars to zero .

You should be able to use the rating section on the left hand side.  I personally don't rate my music.

I gave you some direction on what to do, but since you are new to HA forums, you really should read this thread, as well as information specifically on foobar2000.  Welcome to the forum!

D.Sync, good job  I've been working on this too, could you please post your code here or in the pm?
I was also thinking about those buttons (at the bottom, arrows), it would be nice to choose between different infos on this tab by pressing them.

offtop: jeez, why are you all so keen to upload ur images to imageshack :/


As requested: (Do note that the font of the info will not change to a smaller one if you shrink foobar2k, best viewed on 1280x800 since that's the resolution of my workaround).

You'll need to have the following custom tags:
- %publisher%
- %released_date%
- %catalog%
and
- Font (Maiandra GD)

*Paste it as 'Per Second' script and enable [Per Second] as the bitrate displayed is dynamic (VBR).

Actually, if you keep the "Per Track" section as is, and then add in your code in the "Per Second" section, then it just overlays the info on the Curacao image.  You could reposition so it doesn't cover up the center portion.  I also wonder if %_isplaying% will work instead?

Ops, I guess I forgot to mention that I actually delete the entire code in the Per Track section for it to work.

Btw, wanna ask what function should I use to find a x position whereby it is 'n' pixels from the end of the line.

Eg:

|>>> Technical Info >>>                                  Tag Info:            [30 pixels from end]|

And how can I modify the font color?

If you click the "List" button at the bottom of the editor window, when "Functions" is showing in the drop-down, you will find a "$drawtext" function.  The options include "r-g-b".  Or you should also be able to use "$puts" functions to create your own variables.  Not sure about your other request.
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: D.Sync on 2008-12-02 04:22:00
I'll try that.

Do you know how to solve my first question in the previous post?

-> How to read a x-coordinate 'n' pixels from the total width

EDIT: The $drawtex function doesn't work effectively as I need to type the coordinate for each words I like to change color: (Why did the developer removed the $rgb function... T.T which would make things easier)

Eg:

[Red] Bitrate: [White] %bitrate%
[Red] Codec: [White] %codec%

Lyrics are embedded into the song? Didn't know that heh, anyway to not embed them in the file? The lyrics are set to auto download and "save to configuration folder". Where is that exactly, and why is the file affected if the lyrics are saving somewhere else?

Maybe I wasn't clear, it plays in order of the list regularly, but if I wanted to browse to another section of the list and highlight another song, instead of playing down the list it skips to the highlighted song. My Order has always been on Default btw.

I don't think the album list can be made transparent so it wouldn't fit in with the rest of the theme.

You forgot to close the bracket:
E.g: (Add elapsed percentage beside Technical Info):
$drawstring(>>> Technical Info >>> $muldiv(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,100,%_length_seconds%)'%',7,33,,,255-255-255-255,)

I was also thinking about those buttons (at the bottom, arrows), it would be nice to choose between different infos on this tab by pressing them.


Isn't the info details already enough? For me, I enable the mouse hover feature on ELPlaylist which shows info such as Artist, Composer, Conductor, Band, etc... which involved person as their name length varies whenever I hover over a track.

Another room for improvement:
- If multiple different %artist% tag is detected in an album, a 'Various Artist' string will be displayed on EL Playlist group header instead of using the artist name for the first track

Hi all!
I've spent quite some time to improve the popups and also the handling of different playlists. The purpose is to have some nice infos as popus and adapt the playlist-view based on whether you want to group by albums or just list the single files.

Here is a picture that more or less describes what my setup does:
Hope everything works.. Most important thing is to change the playlist filter names so they fit to your own playlists..!

P.S.: If anyonw could help me to change the "last played date" in History-view to the date when the song was added to the playlist, that would be great! I'm using [a href="http://mry.awardspace.com/fb2k/foo_navigator.htm" target="_blank"]foo_navigator (http://img518.imageshack.us/my.php?image=foobarpopupandplaylistsbv6.jpg) to automatically add played songs to that playlist by the way that also provides extra title formating, but that doesn't seem to work in elPlaylist

Get a program called IrfanView.  It is an image program, which has a nice little batch converter/renamer.  Search your music for all of your PNGs, drag them into the converter window and set it to convert them to JPGs.  You could do the opposite, but then you need to change the extension in all of the settings in fb2k that are looking for JPGs right now.

I have updated the popup code a little bit. Now it looks even nicer and displays icons when the song has lyrics embedded and/or album art.

Curacao v1.2a is out, check http://br3tt.online.fr (http://br3tt.online.fr)

ChangeLog:
- ELPlaylist : new info added : embedded lyrics icon, track bitrate
- ELplaylist : infos like rating, lyrics icon, bitrate can be turned off in ELP settings (check the "field definition" tab)
- New file info added in Curacao mini panel in the control panel when track is playing
- Added new popup panel in the playlist header : AL button for Album list view
- better support for Last.fm radio plugin
- On track change, buttons disappear ==> fixed
- rating stars : playback statistic rating support added, now, curacao displays stars from the library info too ... (rate-engine at bottom left do not displays them because it reflects only the metadata info from file)
- bigger font in popup panels (statistics, artists list) from playlist header buttons
- Tweaks, fixs ...

NOW (v1.2a) rating info from playback stats library are displayed as well (elplaylist, under cover panel), but NOT in the rating engine that is the rating stored in file TAG %rating% $meta(rating) if you prefer.

so it's no sense to display library rating here, only stored TAG from files, CAPICE ?

Why is it odd to have tracks with different bitrates?  A variable bitrate encoding will do just that...give different bitrates for each track.  Using a constant bitrate encoding, you would get the same bitrate for each file, but that isn't necessarily the best way to encode files.

I don't wanna feel you be pissed off, but I would tell the people that there is a possibility to rate in statistics with this button too.
I don't think there is no sense, cause like I and developers think, it's not a good idea to change files with such things.

The problem is not here, it is just that you do not understand how 3rd party plug in works and how curacao use them, i make a notice to explain why the rating engine will not reflect the library-rate but only the file-tag-rate, and you do not understand it, so, once again i will explain to you the problem and the reason of this choice:

1) if a track is rated in the library using the official playback statistics module (foo_playcount), we can use %rating% field in titleformatting and so in third party componenets.

2) if a track is rated in the music file itself, we can use %rating% too or $meta(rating) in titleformat strings (note that $meta(rating) will return nothing if track is rated only in the statisitic database)

3) to rate a track in the stats lib, we have to use right click on the track with context menu and select the right entry.

4) to rate a track in the music file itself, we have in Curacao (or ibiza ...) the rate-engine which is a simple Trackinfo_mod panel that allow this.

5) if a track is rated in both method and if we display the rate with the %rating% method, rate from the stats lib is used in priority.

6) rate-engine (a simple trackinfo_mod panel) only permits to TAG music files, not the statistic library db

So, now that things are clear for you and me, do you have a better understanding of the reason why i do not display the stats lib rate in the Trackinfo_mod panel ?
if i display the stats lib rating info in it, we cannot know where is stored the rating for the track. and if for example there is a 3 stars rating in the trackinfo_mod, if i want to rate it more or less, it will tag the music file (not the stats lib db) and it will be never displayed well in the Trackinfo_mod, because of rule 5 (seen above), and the rule 6

maybe i'll use different colors for the stars to make the difference later but for now, it works like that

Post by: bubi jackson on 2008-12-06 22:45:56
Thanks a lot for the explanation.

I noticed for myself that if there are different ratings in Tag an Stats Lib that the Lib is prioritized and there is a "strange" behaviour.

But, point 6. is not true (in Ibiza). I can rate in trackinfo_mod panel via Stats Lib, thats what I want to say all the time.
If there is some rating in the tag and I re-rate it via stats lib, I get an window asking me for deleting the tag-rating and only store the rating in stats lib and so point 5 is also obsolete, cause I only have the Stats Lib.

The only suggestion I wanted to say is, to tell the people who prefer the Stats Lib that there is also a possibility.

I hope I didn't missunderstand you completly.

no way i know... art support with streaming need to be handled by a specific component, like last.fm radio component does (grab cover art from last.fm site that can be displayed in foobar)

@Krema+Or
I don't know how Br3tt has made his setup (i haven't installed it at the moment, i only took a look in it, to learn the handling of ELPlaylist) but in ELPlaylist I've done it with:

Code: [Select]
$if($strcmp($left(%path%,7),'http://'),
    $imageabs(3,3,$sub(%el_height%,8),$sub(%el_height%,8),%__FOO_PATH__%Radio.png)
,
    $imageabs(3,3,$sub(%el_height%,8),$sub(%el_height%,8),%__FOO_PATH__%NoCover.png)
    $imageabs(3,3,$sub(%el_height%,8),$sub(%el_height%,8),%path%,artreader)
)

I haven't integrate it in my own skin though, because i rarely use radio in foobar and i don't know if there are no other possible conditions where the path begins with 'http://' (although I don't know any. Maybe I'm stupid, I know...  )

Or did i misunderstand you?

i have misunderstood the Krema+Or question, sorry

it's easier to test the %length% for streaming radio, this one is not set for them, so instead of :
$if($strcmp($left(%path%,7),'http://'), ...
you can write :
$if($not(%length%), ...

May i ask you that silly question?
In what other situation can the path begin with http://?
(I only use foobar for music on my local or connectable harddisc)
I first had tested the situation with $if(%length%,...) but thought searching for 'http://' would be probably better.

I use this string only to indicate a blinking "STREAMING" in the statusbar.

Hey Br3tt, or anyone else,

I do not allow the lyrics plugin to automatically tag my files, instead I have it save them as a LRC file (named in the format of %artist% - %filename%.lrc).  I have tried to change the ELP settings so that it will show the lyric icon when a song has the accompanying LRC file, but I haven't gotten it to work.  Anyone else try this?  I tried to modify the $or statement to include a $replace function similar to the ones used for artwork.  But it hasn't worked.  Not sure if fb2k or the plugin can look for LRC files like it can image files.

Thanks.

He Falstaff,
thanks for your update...!

Maybe you are interested in my update, too. I've implemented some additional stuff into your most recent elPlaylist:
- nice popups for Album and Tracks
- Single/Album view: you can change sorting/grouping. So for the library the standard album-grouping makes sense, but for other playlists like history or random temp playlist a simple list of the songs without headers may make more sense.
- integration of "Comment"-Tag: some people like me tag single B-sides or rarities in the comment-tag. The info is then shown in the playlist and in the popups. Additionaly you can choose to show the specific embedded album art in the playlist.
- History playlist view with "last played" information (used with the foo_navigator plugin)

Everything is totally optional, you can switch features on or off in the standard elPlaylist setting without searching through the code. Feel free to integrate the stuff in your next release
Download (http://www.onkelandy.com/ELPlaylist_Andy.elp) and import.


Version 1.2a has some problems with the images, etc. The './' for foo_path doesn't seem to work flawlessly. I don't know whether it's because I've installed foobar as "portable".. do I have to set any system variables? The weird thing is that some images are shown and some are not..

I've only noticed a couple things that don't seem to work right.  I'm using a fresh 0.9.6 install following all your directions in the install setup document (and I read the overview document).  By the way, if I recall correctly, you didn't mention the required fonts at all in the install documentation.  Anyway:

1.  I actually have a series of discs that goes in to double digits.  I noticed that when displaying the disc number in the playlist, it only shows one digit for the current disc, but two digits for the number of total discs.  Therefore, if you have a ten disc set, the tenth disc, for example, will show up as "(Disc 0/10)" rather than "(Disc 10/10)".  I only have one set like this, so it doesn't really bother me.

2.  The Preferences button doesn't seem to work for me at all.  In fact, it crashes (but restarts) the foobar2000.exe application entirely.  Also, CTRL+P doesn't work when I initially start foobar.  It gives me a windows "exclaimation" sound but does nothing.  However, after I click somewhere (anywhere) within the program (other than the title bar) CTRL+P works and continues to work until I restart foobar.

3.  The two google buttons in the top right don't seem to do anything.  How exactly do these work?  I guessed that they would open my default browser, but perhaps they try to download album/artist art and put it in the currently playing track's folder?  If so, that would explain why it doesn't work, as I already have all that art in place?

4.  Is there any way for me to have the playlist disregard "The" in an artist's name?  It would be much easier to use the handy letter buttons at the top for quick searching.  As it stands, there are a slew of artists in the "T's" because of this.

All in all, this is a very complete, functional, and visually pleasing config.  Greatly appreciated!

I guess there is a $num(blabla,1) somewhere in the code. Just change 1 to 2...?

2.  The Preferences button doesn't seem to work for me at all.  In fact, it crashes (but restarts) the foobar2000.exe application entirely.  Also, CTRL+P doesn't work when I initially start foobar.  It gives me a windows "exclaimation" sound but does nothing.  However, after I click somewhere (anywhere) within the program (other than the title bar) CTRL+P works and continues to work until I restart foobar.

I guess the Ctrl-P behaviour is normal at least for panel stack splitter plugin.. something has to be active that the program knows the hotkey is hit.

3.  The two google buttons in the top right don't seem to do anything.  How exactly do these work?  I guessed that they would open my default browser, but perhaps they try to download album/artist art and put it in the currently playing track's folder?  If so, that would explain why it doesn't work, as I already have all that art in place?

They just open the browser and put the correct google URL in the adress bar, that's it. Read the curacao install instructions -> you have to setup up the "Run Services" for making the buttons work.

4.  Is there any way for me to have the playlist disregard "The" in an artist's name?  It would be much easier to use the handy letter buttons at the top for quick searching.  As it stands, there are a slew of artists in the "T's" because of this.

Search this thread and you will find the solution. You have to replace the "%album artist%" by some code that was posted some paged before.

@nate911: Right click in Playlist -> Settings
Select tag 'field definition', you will see line: TXT_COLOR_GROUP, double click and change your color (RGB).


You can use MS Paint to select color you want.

Do you know how to change the font??

Thanks..

Right-click anywhere in the playlist (on the album header or a song) and select "Settings".  Go to the "Group Header" tab, and in the field box look for the "Text Properties" portion.

I guess the Ctrl-P behaviour is normal at least for panel stack splitter plugin.. something has to be active that the program knows the hotkey is hit.

The Ctrl-P shortcut is not set as a Global, which would allow you to use it when unfocused.  You could change it to a Global, BUT if you do, make sure it doesn't conflict with a normal Windows command.  Shortcuts are in the Preferences.

Look for my posts in this thread, I posted the code to ignore the "The" in the %album artist%.  You will also need to look at the posts after that, as there will be a few places that you will need to put this code.

I'm using this string for ELP also

Code: [Select]
$if($strcmp($left(%album artist%,4),The ),$right(%album artist%,$sub($len(%album artist%),4))', 'The,%album artist%)


But if I put this in the code for the GB (at the top of ELP) I only get the letter for the first "The" band and all of these bands will be selectedt at once.

Does anybody know how to do?

Edit: I made it. I have forgotten the grouping there. Sorry for posting before thinking.

Hello,
First of all, I'd like to thank you for this great theme you made. I want to ask a question, I'm new at this foobar-plugin thing so I hope you forgive me because of my ignorance. Nearly all of my albums have an original cover, when I select a song from an album with cover, cover appears on the background. That's a cool feature, but I felt like the background is better with no cover (grey). I searched an option for that but couldn't find it. I don't want my covers to appear on the background. Is there anyway to disable this feature?

Thanks.

I won't even pretend to know where to find this. 

I guess the Ctrl-P behaviour is normal at least for panel stack splitter plugin.. something has to be active that the program knows the hotkey is hit.

The Ctrl-P shortcut is not set as a Global, which would allow you to use it when unfocused.  You could change it to a Global, BUT if you do, make sure it doesn't conflict with a normal Windows command.  Shortcuts are in the Preferences.

This makes sense.  I was also under the impression that the button above the playback time and vis spectrum was supposed to bring up foobar's preferences, but from reading more of this post I gather that it is indeed supposed to restart foobar.  This must serve some purpose to Br3tt and others that I can't understand.

They just open the browser and put the correct google URL in the adress bar, that's it. Read the curacao install instructions -> you have to setup up the "Run Services" for making the buttons work.

Thanks again.  I re-read, and found the info not in the install instructions, but in the overview document.  Both of them are a little out of date, but useable.  Not to complain.  None of this is coming to me as a right, after all, but a privilege.  Thanks, again, Br3tt!

Search this thread and you will find the solution. You have to replace the "%album artist%" by some code that was posted some paged before.

Look for my posts in this thread, I posted the code to ignore the "The" in the %album artist%.  You will also need to look at the posts after that, as there will be a few places that you will need to put this code.

You know, I found the posts you were talking about.  Specifically, kockroach's.  I tried this, but it still wasn't working quite right as far as I could tell.  All artists preceeded by "The" were indeed changed to their name followed by a comma and "The".  And they were indeed sorted properly in the playlist view.
However, the letters at the top didn't work quite right.  For example, the first artist with a "The" in my library is "The Adolescents".  They were resorted in the playlist view with the "A's" and the "The" at the end of their name, but clicking on "A" in the letters at the top highlighted all "A" artists in the playlist except for the ones that normally start with "The" such as "The Adolescents".
What's more, the letter T at the top was replaced with the first letter (alphabetically) of the first "The" artist in the list.  In this example, it was "A" for "Adolescents, The".  Clicking that letter highlighted every "The" artist in the list regardless of their physical location.   
I'm 99% sure that I put the code that kockroach posted in all the proper areas that people mentioned.  However, because others are reporting that it works, I'm assuming I missed something.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone would take the time to list each location that I need to post the "The" omission code to properly sort my playlists (and graphical browser, and wherever else it would be pertinent).

Also, Onkel Andy, I downloaded and imported (through the import button in the ELPlaylist settings) your playlist sorting and popup settings.  Nice work!  There are only two problems I'm having that maybe you can help resolve.

1.  The playlist now seems to scroll at far fewer lines at a time than it did before.  Is there a way I can increase this, as I like the idea of hiding the scroll bar.

2.  The popups aren't quite displaying as you intended them to.  See the images below:
Album Popup (http://sites.google.com/site/diningnighthawk/Home/images/album-example.jpg?attredirects=0)
Track Popup (http://sites.google.com/site/diningnighthawk/Home/images/track-example.jpg?attredirects=0)

Thanks again for everyone's help, and especially to Br3tt for sharing his creation!

I have already mentioned all of the places you would need to put that code within this thread.  They aren't all in the same place, because some of it was figured out at different times.  Just pull up all of my posts in this thread, and you should find everything.  It isn't worthwhile to write it again.  It will also take care of the Alphabetical list at the top too.

And just a quick note.  Don't use the code for the actual grouping in the playlist.  Only the sorting.  If you do it in the grouping, you get the ", The" problem you mention.

Hi Br3tt,
I love curacao, surely your masterpiece.
The only thing I miss, is the option "Highlight in Playlist". Normally I doubleclick on statusbar to go to the actually played song, but I don't have statusbar in your config.
Can you integrate this feature in curacao? Maybe a button? Or a full contextmenu in layout with big cover, like right-click on lyrics-panel in layout with small cover?
I hope u understand.

Hey Br3tt,

Really loving your new setup here.

One thing I'm slightly curious about though.  Is it possible to get the default wallpaper in /images/curacao/bg/ to display instead of cd covers or nothing, but not display instead of artist photos?

I checked your video and saw how to make it display all the time, but when there is no cd cover in the background the setup simply displays a grey background rather than the wallpaper.  Perhaps I missed something, but it'd be nice to be able to use that instead of the CD cover in the background or just the grey background.

Hopefully that makes sense.

You are right, without the scroll bar that's annoying. Just go to style and change scrollbar from 1 to 0

2.  The popups aren't quite displaying as you intended them to.  See the images below:
Album Popup (http://sites.google.com/site/diningnighthawk/Home/images/album-example.jpg?attredirects=0)
Track Popup (http://sites.google.com/site/diningnighthawk/Home/images/track-example.jpg?attredirects=0)


Actually, I'm not quite sure why br3tt made the popup background like that  The problem is that the transparent parts of the png just aren't displayed correctly in elPlaylist. You can use the "enable color key" and set the correct grey color to be keyed under "misc"-tab. But I'd advise to crop the picture in any photo editing tool and maybe make the round corners straight to make it look fine.

I've provided the optimized popup-background and optimized elPlaylist config (two-digit discnumber, group/sort artists with "The" and standard scrolling on my server. Just download it (http://www.onkelandy.com/ELPlaylist.zip) and put the image in the images/curacao/bg-folder.

By the way: I've implemented the same sorting- and grouping-logic as with "The.." with "DIE". As you seem to speak german this could make sense. Changes "Die Toten Hosen" to "Toten Hosen, Die"  You have to apply this code in the alphabetical panel at the top:
Code: [Select]
$if($strcmp($left(%album artist%,4),The ),$right(%album artist%,$sub($len(%album artist%),4))', 'The,$if($strcmp($left(%album artist%,4),Die ),$right(%album artist%,$sub($len(%album artist%),4))', 'Die,%album artist%))


To make it easier I have also implemented the complete columnsUI-config, but u may have to install some additional plugins like bookmarks, etc. to make it load..

Br3tt,

I have some code that may be worthwhile to add into your config.  I was finally able to get something to work that would recognize Lyrics stored in a file, rather than in a tag, and display your new Lyrics Icon.

In ELP settings add the following Field Definition:
NAME: __LYRICSFILE__
DEFINITION:  $findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,%artist% - %filename%.lrc))

Then in the Track List tab of the Script section, change this:
Code: [Select]
$if($or(%LYRICS%,%LYRIC%),

to this:
Code: [Select]
$if($or(%__LYRICSFILE__%,$or(%LYRICS%,%LYRIC%)),


Enjoy!

By the way, I changed my album artist code from this:

$if($strcmp($left(%album artist%,4),The ),$right(%album artist%,$sub($len(%album artist%),4))', 'The,%album artist%)

to this:
Code: [Select]
$stripprefix(%album artist%,the)

It works in all of the places I did the former code, plus is it more compact.  I also only did "The" as I don't believe an artist like A Perfect Circle should go under P.  Belongs under A.  But that is my opinion.

First change the code, then hit new, then change the name and hit "rename" afterwards. To use the presets you have to put the relevant names in the grouping tab, the option is called "associated script name"

I've updated my tweak-file This time it also has the correct link  So get it while it's hot.
Download tweaked Curacao (http://www.onkelandy.com/curacao_tweaked.zip)

elPlaylist:
These are the tweaks:
-Sorting and grouping with swapprefix(The)
-Lyric-Icon also showing when LRC-File exists, not only tag
-2-digit discnumber
Additional stuff:
-Different group/sort-possibilities: change between single track listing (inkl. special treatment of "History"-playlist) or album group
-Show Album art for Single- or Soundtrackfiles in the playlist as well as relevant comment-info
-Popups completely re-designed, showing album- and artistpictures

Graphical Browser:
-Sorting and grouping based on prefix "The"
-totally redesigned album/artist-browser based on Thuans great config. Features are:
display info for missing artwork, show play-icon on playing album/artist and of course.. popups

You may have missed the group/sorty by option. Just sort by Album and you have the completely same look as before! You can also delete the other grouping-way in the preferences if you don't like the tracklisting. If nothing works for you, just copy the popup-code and put it in the old config.

Lieber Onkel, if I'm not missing something your script gets only folder.jpg as displayed covers. I added another variable for cover.jpg and then modified the script to display it if folder.jpg is not found.
Maybe you can do the same for your next update?

I also made all the changes for the graphical browser.

Looking at your popup I see that it also displays the comments from the tag. Only thus the window gets very large. Should it be possible to limit the display length of the comment line or to introduce a line break lets say after 20 chars?

Done. I just cut the comment to %__commentcut__% characters right now, you can define the number of chars in the variables under field definition
Coverart is now also considering cover.jpg and directoryname.jpg. Add additional stuff in the art_path field definition.

Yes, the popup looks fine now. I tweaked the GB to display not only the folder.jpg, but also cover.jpg. Same for the Splitter setting.

I have another question: the playlist grouping startup by default is by Single, how can I make it startup with

EDIT: nevermind, the alphabet deal at the top isn't working anymore....so thats a big problem. I imported OA's altered config and elplaylist deal and popups look nice now but I need the alphabet deal at top to work! Please help someone! Thanks!

EDIT 2: got the idea to download OA's .zip config again and there were changes made so I imported both again and still the little alphabet deal at the top isn't responding no matter what I click, its just stuck at the beginning.

This is strange... I have tested it and it works.. have you tried different playlists? Maybe it's just not updating. Maybe you right-click on the alphabet at the top and go into the settings. After hitting "Okay" or "Apply" it may update..?

If that doesn't help download the zip, you only need to import the FCL, not the elp seperately.

Post by: RavenSoft on 2008-12-14 01:05:38
well I only have 1 playlist

I can mouse over the letters and click them and that part looks normal but the area below doesn't move or do anything like the original

Using the original and setting it up as required its working fine. With this altered version do I still follow the original setup instructions? Or just simply import it and thats it?

There is a screenshot...I am playing Alice In Chains and before if I clicked any letter, in pic its M, it would jump to the M section of the playlist and I could then play other music....but as the screen shot shows I clicked M and nothing happened.

Either download the zip file again (updated) or if that doesn't help you can just change the behaviour of the presets under Settings / Grouping / Playlist Filter. Change "Album Artist" to disable on and put the names of playlists next to it that shouldn't use that preset. Vice versa you edit the "Single" preset to only show on specific playlists. That should change the "standard" behaviour.

As for the problem with the top letters. Right click, choose Settings. In the "Others" tab change the "Click actions". Maybe you have to set everything to default. That worked very slowly with large playlists that's why I changed to behaviour. I assume you also have Graphical Browser rev015?
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: RavenSoft on 2008-12-14 01:56:00
yes rev015. i set single click from none to default and it does do something now, but seems like there is a little hesitation right after the click to when it shows the corresponding letter playlist below.

is there any other plugin that can do something similar that the graphical browser does to make the alphabet deal at the top? I have a very current computer, but as you can see that plugin has a bug in it and its a damn shame its not being updated anymore. As soon as I click one of the the "Buttons" to the top left of album art ( ||||, 1, 2 ) then the alphabet will show just fine. I have noticed however that if shpeck plugin that's at the bottom isn't rendered of doesn't load right that the alphabet will show just fine. But in order to get shpeck to work right you have to close and restart foobar2000, then shpeck loads up like normal but the alphabet area is a white box.

Right Click in Playlist > Setting... >Grouping
In [Group by]: Select Artist Album, after that, select Disable On in playlist filter
With Histtory, like Artist Album...
Last, select Single in [group by], and [enable only on] in playlist filter > OK

Is there a way to fix this?

Also, would it be possible to make some type of way to browse different picture files in folders, like, if there was 1.jpg and 2.jpg, to be able to look through them using foobar.

Yes, same problem here as  RavenSoft. When I double click on a letter sometimes I get a playlist with all the same titles. When looking at the playlist the default is then called Graphical Browser and most letters of the menu are gone. When I switch back to MyPlaylist, the letters are showing again, but do not work.

Well right click on a letter and go to settings. Click on Others tab and bottom left you see click actions. single click is blank, if you set it to default then it works, just doesn't seem like original version of this theme but I don't want to mess with setting my foobar up again to see.


*EDIT*

Here is a screenshot that shows the shpeck plugin not rendered/loaded correctly, and the alphabet thing at the top shows up just fine.

http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/9803/12...08123439fl6.jpg (http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/9803/12142008123439fl6.jpg)

Upon restart shpeck plugin almost always loads fine but then the alphabet deal at the top is a white box until I hit one of the three buttons at the top left corner. Is it really a bug in the graphical browser or the theme itself?

Post by: TimeGoesBy on 2008-12-14 22:21:28
Yes, I already found it with the default item which was blank. However I also noted the blank box, but not always; furthermore sometimes the animations are not working, then when I close and restart Foo, then it mostly works.

I also don't wanna mess around with the configuration importing the original. Maybe I'll try it on my other PC.

SOLUTION FOR THE ALPHABETICAL NAVIGATOR ON TOP
So... as some of you have figured out the "default" click option takes much too long to jump to the correct space in the playlist. I have set the left mouse button for the Graphical Browser on top to "Edit/Highlight in Current Playlist". The playlist scrolls immediately to the correct position (and well, selects all entries with that letter, but see it as a feature ). The thing is - this menu entry is only available with "foo_utils (http://foosion.foobar2000.org/components/?id=utils&version=0.6.2+beta+6)". So get that plugin and rock on..

By the way, I've updated the zip-file (http://www.onkelandy.com/curacao_tweaked.zip) to fix some minor things and a problem with the artist path (somehow the parent directory wasn't found always...).

Hey br3tt,
Really great setup you have here with Curacao! I appreciate it a lot and it looks amazing. I have been using it for about a week now on my desktop and just got around to loading it on my laptop as well. Excuse me if this has been addressed earlier in this thread (I think I remember reading something about it but not sure), but is it possible to add a scroll bar to the right of the playlist? It wasn't a big deal on my desktop, but the scroll built in to my laptop touchpad is a little difficult to use with the config. I think a scroll bar could be integrated with the whole visual theme without detracting from it too much. If you can't find a way to add one that looks appealing it's not a big deal though. I will still use your plugin because I really enjoy it! Thanks

-Docnoq

*Edit: I noticed after reading through some of these posts that some users are having issues with the alphabet and buttons on the top. I wasn't having any issues on my desktop, but the first time I loaded foobar on my laptop the 5 buttons to the right of the alphabet were invisible. The main difference between my desktop and laptop is my laptop is running vista, so this leads me to believe vista is causing the issue. However, I know virtually nothing about programming, so this may not be the problem at all. Hopefully this helps you in case you look into the issue though. Thanks again!

Hi Andy,

I tried to but I'm not so fit in scripting.

If I play an album with Various Artists the group-popup only shows the artist of the first song.
Is it possible that the group popup is showing the single artist picture of the playing song?

btw, I like your ELP-Settings very much (especially the popup thing), just modified a liitle bit for my needs.

To my knowledge it's a restriction of the group format in ELP (at the moment).
It only gets information from the first title in a group.

Well I just want to give some feedback to the updated tweaks from Onkel. BTW it's more than only a slight modification. Looks good at first sight and the alphabetic letters are working as they should.IO
I appreciate the works and I'm quite satisfied with it.

Of course another question: when starting foo the first item from the group is always expanded. I would like to have it collapsed as default.

Hi Andy,
If I play an album with Various Artists the group-popup only shows the artist of the first song.
Is it possible that the group popup is showing the single artist picture of the playing song?

The only useful thing would be to tweak the code under //Cover and Artist Picture. When you change the lines in Popup-Code to the following one:
Code: [Select]
$ifequal(%el_item_count%,1,
$if($findfile($get(artist_path)),$imageabs(12,40,$get(artist_size),$get(artist_size),$get(artist_path),nokeepaspect,) $puts(space,12),)
$imageabs(12,$add($add($get(space),40),$get(artist_size)),$get(cover_size),$get(cover_size),%path%,artreader,,)
,
$ifequal($get(VA),0,$if($findfile($get(artist_path)),
$imageabs(12,12,$get(artist_size),$get(artist_size),$get(artist_path),,),
$imageabs(12,12,$get(cover_size),$get(cover_size),$get(art_path),,) ),
$imageabs(12,12,$get(cover_size),$get(cover_size),$get(art_path),,)
)
)
and put this code at the top of the popup(track) tab:
Code: [Select]
$if($stricmp(%album artist%,%artist%),
  $puts(VA,0)
,
  $puts(VA,1)
)
the popup would work like this:
When you hover over the group header of a normal album the artist picture is shown, when available, otherwise the cover. When you hover over the header of a sampler, only the cover is shown and no artist picture from the first or any other artists 

Maybe the $if($findfile.. stuff could be replaced by a simple $if2 but only maybe.. *g* bubi jackson - wanna share your additional tweaks?
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: bubi jackson on 2008-12-17 13:18:03
Thank you Andy, it's nicer to get the cover than always the same artist.

the popup would work like this:
When you hover over the group header of a normal album the artist picture is shown, when available, otherwise the cover.

I don't wanna klugscheissen, but hovering over the header of a normal album the noartist.cover is shown, cause you defined it so with the $puts (artist_path...). 


But I have another problem.

I did a workaround with artist covers which have invalid characters in the artist name.
I put these covers in every single album folder as invalidartist.jpg and defined a constant (also for the artist wallpaper) - so this is ok, but I don't like it cause it's a lot of work.

I have read the Title Formatting Reference 5 times today to find an answer, but I don't make it.
I wanna a title formating which checks if there are invalid characters in the artist , replaces it with space and take the new filename for "%artist%.jpg".

An example: Phantom/Ghost --> Phantom Ghost -->Phantom Ghost.jpg

You can add more to it, $replace(%artist%,/, ,*,) etc... try that out, you can test this in the properties window of fb2k, right click the file and go to Properties, and then Right Click On The Artist name and click Fromat From Other Fields, and paste this $replace(%artist%,/, ,*,) and you can see what the name would look like, and if it matches your .jpg then click cancel so it doesn't mess your tag up. Just to preview the name is all.
Edit:, hm automated method, don't know if that's possible

This should replace all invalid characters with space:

" doesn't need to be replaced with space, but removed, so:
$replace(%artist%,/, ,\, ,*, ,?, ,",,<, ,>, ,|, ,:, )

Albumartist is for sampler which have not Various Artists but an Single Artist, like DJ XYZ Presents Mega Hits
Artistgroupheader is for showing the Cover in the Groupheader if no Artist is present. In the Track-Popup the Noartist is still shown (I like it so)

)

Normal Albums show Artist--->Cover
Sampler show Albumartist--->Cover or Cover if there are Various Artists

The problem ist still if there is no Albumcover, then an empty Group-Popup is shown.
I don't know why Nocover isn't working.

Another strange thing is, that if I replace the "%path%,artreader" with $get(art_path) for the Track-Popup, the Nocover is only shown for Songs which have an embedded cover, but not for Tracks with no cover in the folder.

What is the best way to tag single tracks for use with this config?

Also, will it always show track numbers as question marks with single tracks?

You could try tagging Album Artist: V.A (or something similar).... Usually it gets sorted by that if the tag is there, and that way the Artist tag is still correct (for example it still gets reported to Last.FM right). I'm actually not at my own PC so I can't check if it works, but I imagine it does...

Hope that helps.

I've noticed with Curacao that files with a high bitrate (say, in FLAC format for instance) do not have their bitrates shown correctly in the playlist. It seems as though only three-digit bitrates can be shown, so something with more than 1000kbps bitrate does not show properly, it's cut off. Maybe this can be fixed in the next release?

Thanks!

Maybe you download my tweaked version (http://www.onkelandy.com/curacao_tweaked.zip) and use the Group by Single.. At least you can use the code to start tweaking it by yourself..? It actually totally depends on how you want single tracks to look like... Use %el_item_count% to config the behaviour the way you want to!


@Bubi:
Youhave to change the second if-statement below all the variable configurations on the top to this:
$if($findfile($get(art_path)),$puts(cover_size,$ifequal(%el_item_count%,1,%__ART_SIZE__%,%__ART_SIZE_GROUP__%)),$puts(cover_size,0))

Actually here I have just checked for embedded or cover artwork and don't take the nocover-stuff into consideration. Therefore the size was set to 0

I have implemented your adjustments to my code and updated the files - just download it and put the variable "show_nocover" to 1. Actually this feature lets everyone choose if the nocover/noartist should be shown in the popup or not...

It would be great if the album and artist panels would also display the name of the albums/artists on the images.


What do you mean by that? Actually my tweaked version (http://www.onkelandy.com/curacao_tweaked.zip) shows the title of the album in the "album"-panel (graphical browser) if there is no cover found. Just look at the code and adapt it to your needs (most of that code was provided by Thuan (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showuser=31716) - thanks go to him!)

So, i don`t know how it makes right, but I changed two boxes below
but sometimes after adding albums in playlist I need to rightclick on elplaylist and change "sort"--->preset default, I don`t know how to make it by default.
anyway, take a look on screenshot, maybe it helps you

I mean it would be nice if the title is shown on or below the cover. Kind of like Chronflow does. Especially with new albums you might know the name but not the cover. At least that's what sometimes happens to me. Also with the images being so small it is hard to sometimes differentiate some groups if the members look similar.

@Freedom-loving
Go to Preferences-->General-->Sort incoming files by
and set the pattern you want to sort files by default, when added to a playlist

Btw. you have a strange pattern in your ELPlaylist.
With your pattern, some albums wouldn't be sorted correctly, e.g. you have a "Greatest Hits" from 1990 by artist A, and another "Greatest Hits" from 1990 by artist B.
They would be sorted like this:
Track 1 artist A
Track 1 artist B
Track 2 artist A
Track 2 artist B
...

You probably should change the pattern to:
%album artist% - %date% - %album% - %discnumber% - %tracknumber% - %title%

Has anyone had a problem with minimizing the player to the taskbar and when you go to maximize it, the player won't show itself.  The music continues to play, but I have to close and reopen foobar.  When I do, the player is small and you have to drag a corner to see the config.  Anyone?  I've only had this happen a few times.

One questions though - I used the tweaked file of Uncle Andy cause I read something about embedded cover art support. I tried it but the embedded covers aren't displayed it all. Anyone know if that's possible? EPlaylist should support this feature 

I've added that possibility to the new tweaked version (http://www.onkelandy.com/curacao_tweaked.zip).. If you want to use embedded artwork (could lead to performance problems!) set the __EMBEDDED_ART__ under settings/field definition to 1.

I've also filled some other requests so maybe re-downloading (changed the filename!) makes sense. Here is a list of all the changes (maybe not complete..):

Code: [Select]
CURACAO TWEAKED version features/tweaks (most features are optional, see bottom!):
ELPlaylist:
* Playlist Grouping: Use group/sort by to get different visual styles of your playlist.
* Implementation of History-Plugin: When you use foo_navigator, the "History" grouping is for you. It sorts and displays by "last played" and groups the entries based on the day played. Under "field definition" set __HISTORY__ to the name for the playlist your history is stored in. Do the same in the grouping-tab/Group by History dropdown/playlist filter
* Show Album art for Single- or Soundtrackfiles in the playlist as well as relevant comment-info. (see"setting options" for further info)
* If genre is "Tribute" or a various artist album has "Tribute" in the comment-tag the specific tribute-info is shown in the group header. Additionaly it's sorted by original artist. Means: an AC/DC tribute is listed below the AC/DC albums and not at the end under "Various" - change this behaviour with the __TRIBUTE__ field definition!
* Use of embedded artwork in group header if you want to (see "setting options" below)

* Sorting and grouping with swapprefix(The,Die)
* Re-arranging german umlauts, sorting by release date if available (for greatest hits or own compilation albums)
* trimming special characters from filenames for artist or cover-images
* Lyric-Icon also showing when LRC-File exists, not only tag
* search for artist image in the parent directory and not only in centralized folder
* cover-name can be folder.jpg, cover.jpg or %directory%.jpg
* minor tweaks like 2-digit discnumbers, auto-fill tracknumber, etc.

* POP-UPS: complete redesign with following features for single songs:
- optimized background-image
- automatic resize
- listing of some additional tags, if existing
- special treatment when "Single" in comment-tag is found (for those who tag Single B-Sides with the same album as the original album release and put the info where the sond is really released on in the comment field.. )
- icon for existing lyrics and cover
- showing artist picture if available
- showing embedded cover if available, else cover defined in the "field definition"/__ART_PATH__

* POP-UPS: complete redesign with following features for group headers:
- no popup if no picture found or "nocover.png" shown if you set __SHOW_NOCOVER__ in the field definition to 1
- intelligent display of artist or cover album, depending on whether it's a various artist-album or not
- use of embedded artwork

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Graphical Browser:
- Sorting and grouping based on prefix "The", "Die" and german umlauts (same as elPlaylist)
- totally redesigned album/artist-browser based on Thuans great config. Features are:
display info for missing artwork, show play-icon (in images-folder) on playing album/artist
- of course.. popups
- directly jump to the specific artist in the playlist when clicking on letter without waiting for hours  Needs the foo_utils plugin though!!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SETTING OPTIONS in elPlaylist settings under field definition:
__TRIBUTE__: set to 1 when you want to show the Tribute-info in group header and sort tribute-albums below original artist (needs Tribute-genre or "Tribute" in comment-tag)
__SHOW_NOCOVER: set to 1 when you want to see the nocover/noartist-image in the group-popups. If set to 0 no popup will be shown if no picture for artist or cover is found.
__COMMENTCUT__: cut comments in popups to this amount of characters
__SINGLE_ARTWORK__: show embedded artwork next to the ratings in the playlist, if song has "Single"/"Tribute"/"Soundtrack"/"Bonus" written in the comment field or %original album%-tag. This is useful when you make Rarities-compilation for artists and put the additional info of the original release in the comment-tag
__HISTORY__: name of the playlist that lists all played items (needs foo_navigator plugin). also set that name in the grouping tab!
__PHOTO_PATH_COLLECTED__: if you collect artist images centrally, set this to that specific folder
__PHOTO_PATH_PARENTDIR__: looking in parent directory for %artist%.jpg, if "collected path" is not found
__PHOTO_PATH_ALBUMARTIST/ARTISTGROUPHEADER__: special treatment of various artist album popups
__ART_SIZE__: cover and artist picture size in single song popup
__ART_SIZE_GOUP__: cover and artist size in group header popup (normally larger as only the picture is shown and no text)
__EMBEDDED_ART__: set to 1 if you want to use embedded artwork. If you experience performance problems just set it to 0!

I got some nice sorting problem...  Normally the sorting by "$swapprefix(%album artist%)" is fine... but I just found a release where the artist of some of the songs is identical with the album artist. For example "Faithless Renaissance 3D". It's some sort of remix album with various artists, but actually the album artist is "Faithless". They also contribute some own songs to it, so they are listed first and the other artists are then sorted below by tracknumber.. Any idea?

It's not THAT hard, although performance isn't best with all the covers shown.. If you're talking about difficulties with navigation use these features:
- alphabetical list at the top
- artist-list in upper right
- album / artist graphical browser at the bottom (switch is on lower right).

It mostly makes sense to use "highlight selected item in playlist" on single click what is possible with the foo_utils plugin.

Many many thanks for sharing your config! You added some nice touches there 

I decided to put every single song in a seperate folder together with an appropiate folder.jpg (besides album-rips!). This works quite well cause now each song has its individual cover which will be displayed in the left album display and also the graphical browser 

(Without the folder. jpg's, the embedded covers will only pop up in the playlist, but not on the graphical browser and the big left album side.)

I will still continue to integrate covers into my mp3s, 'cause I'm a Sansa User and I love them to see on my display

Yep it's a pity, that the great graphical browser isn't developed any further and doesn't support embedded art

Actually it's quite easy to implement coverflow by yourself. Go into the preferences, columnsui/Layout. Right-click on the fourth "Panel Stack Splitter" from the bottom and choose Insert Panels/Panel/Chronflow. That's actually it. By clicking the "..." on the lower right in the skin you see the coverflow. You could use this code to make it work in the quite thin panel a little bit better:
Code: [Select]
function coverPosition(coverId){
var x, y, z;
x = coverId * 1.1;
y = 0;
z = -1.3 - Math.abs(coverId)/4;
return new Array(x, y, z);
}

function coverRotation(coverId){
var angle;
// this makes the covers disappera smoothly
if (Math.abs(coverId) >= 8){
var f = Math.abs(coverId) - 2 // this is in [0-1]
// at this angle the covers are not visible
var hideAngle = rad2deg(Math.atan(coverPosition(3)[2] / coverPosition(3)[0]));
angle = hideAngle * f;
if (coverId > 0)
angle *= -1;
} else {
angle = 0;
}
return new Array(angle,0,1,0);
}
function rad2deg(angle){
return angle/Math.PI * 180;
}


function coverSizeLimits(coverId){ return new Array(1, 1) }
function coverAlign(coverId){ return new Array(0, 0) }

function drawCovers(){ return new Array(-9, 9) }
function aspectBehaviour(){ return new Array(0, 1) }


function eyePos(){ return new Array(0, 0, 0) }
function lookAt(){ return new Array(0, 0, -1.5) }
function upVector(){ return new Array(0, 1, 0) }

function showMirrorPlane(){ return false }

As far as the search field is concerned... I'd also request this for the next update  Actually when you go through the code of the config you'll find out how to do it yourself, but, well...

To make the last played album focus on restart activate "resume playback after restart" in the preferences under "Playback". If you don't want to play it automatically I'm sure there are other plugins that achieve what you want..

Br3tt, a small observation I made is that when playing a flac file with a 4 digit bitrate it Curacao does not show it correctly in the playlist. It only displays 3 digits, so a bitrate of 1011 kbps will be displayed as .011 in the playlist.

Also, is it possible to ad a popup field to show the artist name when hovering the mouse pointer over the artist pic in the artist browser. Much like windows does when hovering the mouse pointer over a browser tab.

See example:

I like this skin very much, but have problem.
When minimize or retore foobar2k window with this config, Windows is often freezing.
There is no error reporting, no foobar failure log, just system freezing without mouse cursor.
Reset or turn-off are only solution that I can.
I tested minimize and restore with auto clicking program.
It crashed all the time less than 1000 times minimize-restore.

Someone have same problem like me?

First of all big props for piece of a great job! Awesome theme!

I got some questions about it:

1) How could i understand that path: Z:\_artists_\%artist%.jpg ?? Have no clue how to get that __PHOTO_PATH__ working.. My foo displays album art on the left, and also the same album art as a background of my playlist.. Is that the way it should be done?

2) Can i replace displaying Lyrics with File Properties on the left?

3) I also got album arts in different formats (jpg, gif, png.. all of them named cover.*), so can i anyhow make foo search for more album art formats than only jpg? I found that line: "$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)cover.jpg" but dunno if there is any way to get it modified that way..

Sorry if questions were already mentioned, and thanks in advance for any answers.

Use something like this in the _ART_PATH_ variable:
Code: [Select]
$if3($findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,cover.png)),$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,cover.jpg)),$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,cover.gif)) )

The PHOTO_PATH is for the artist pictures.. These are only shown when found, otherwise u'll see the cover of the album.

AS far as the "file properties"-question is concerned: yes, you can  Easiest way would be to use this in the Formatting String tab of Lyrics Show panel:
Code: [Select]
$puts(time_of_year,$right($substr(%last_played%,9,10),2)'. '$select($substr(%last_played%,6,7),January,February,March,April,May,June,July,August,September,October,November,December)' '$substr(%last_played%,1,4))
$puts(time_of_day,$substr(%last_played%,12,13)$substr(%last_played%,14,16))

$if(%artist%,FFFFFFArtist: %artist%)

Thanks for good foobar2k theme.
I like this skin very much, but have problem.
When minimize or retore foobar2k window with this config, Windows is often freezing.
There is no error reporting, no foobar failure log, just system freezing without mouse cursor.
Reset or turn-off are only solution that I can.
I tested minimize and restore with auto clicking program.
It crashed all the time less than 1000 times minimize-restore.

Someone have same problem like me?

my system
E4500, 4G ram
Radeon 3850 (8.12)
Audigy2, ALC888
Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 x64
foobar2000 0.9.6
components only include Curaçao 1.2a


I also have the same problem, and I'm also on Vista 64 bit.  I have no idea how to fix the problem though.

The file properties is a very nice addition onkel andy. Just too bad it's either lyrics or file properties and not both at the same time. One advantage is I now can put a total bio of the artist in the comment tag and view it completely when I enlarge the lyrics panel.

This is an amazing theme!! Thank you so much for all your hard work on it...

I do have a question though - the album art string is configured to use folder.jpg... however, in the past I have been able to replace this with a wildcard, like *.jpg so that it shows the first JPG it finds in the folder... this doesn't seem to be working in this theme, however. Does anyone know how to get this working? I did some searching around and found a discussion about this in another theme thread:

http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....=33&t=65618 (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?act=Print&client=printer&f=33&t=65618)

They mention that the below code can be replaced with the line below it to use wilcards:

Code: [Select]
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)*.jpg


Code: [Select]
$if3($findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)),$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.png))etc.etc


However, when I tried using this in Curacao, everything went black! Of course I removed the etc.etc. from the end and changed *.png to *.jpg... otherwise, I'm not much of a code expert!

Does anyone know how to get wildcards working for album art JPG's in Curacao? Any help would be much appreciated... thanks!

elPlaylist doesn't support wildcards afaik. So you must use the code you mentioned in the elPlaylist definition called __ART_PATH__. The problem with your code is that first of all you'd need at least 3 arguments to make $if3 work (or use $if2 instead) and second you need to close the $if statement with another )! Then it will work.. Actually I'm repeating myself as I've already posted the correct code only 3 posts above!

Thanks - sorry I missed that earlier post... this works great for ELPlaylist, but doesn't seem to work for the large album art display when I replace the below code with yours:

Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\folder.jpg)


Also, I am using the original Curacao as opposed to the tweaked version... should I use the tweaked version? Would this be made any easier using Curacao Tweaked? Please let me know, thanks!

Well, the tweaked version has the code for different covers in it in several spaces. You may have to right-click the album picture and adapt the code a little bit, but u'll see how it works immediately.. Give it a try.

hey, i love this config...the first with panel splitter i love since panels ui...

my problem: is it possible to show the status of "stop after current" in a panel with an icon?

in panels ui i used this for switchable and display status of "stop after current"

$if(%cwb_stopaftercurrent%,$button($add($div(%_width%,2),104),108,0,0,28,28,/images\menue\m_tri_rot.png,/images\menue\m_tri_h.png,stop after current,TOOLTIP:"Stop after Current"),

so the button changed from green to red...

%cwb_stopaftercurrent% was brought by cwb_hook component which is no more supported by foobar since 0.9.5.3 (like PanelsUI)
so ... from my knowledge level, it's not possible to detect the status of Stop After Current ...

- I wold like a integrated a working coverflow oder chronflow-panel in this great skin - maybe a slime one instead the Covershow-Panel next to AVS...

A good question.

I would like to know the difference between "Any Foobar2000 Installaiotn" and "This Foobar2000 Installaiotn"for export.


@rolf: you can put chronoflow instead of the graphical browser in the panel, but it's very very small, so it's hard to see something.

I dont know if it was asked already but when i listen to the online radio after 1 minute that message appers -> Could not update tags (Access denied), and then -> Unable to resume decoding at 1:03.242 (Unsupported format or corrupted file).

Any idea?

I'm having this same problem. Is there a solution for this? Earlier it worked fine but when i re-installed my foobar and loaded config this happened.


i can't reproduce that, all is fine here ... be sure that you have foobar installed in C:\Program Files\foobar200\
like described in the installations notes.

SOMETIMES i have the same problem like Teukka and the others BUT it is 1/60 runs  only & it is a lottery. most often when foobar is called from external file like mp3 (it is reminding me problem of ibiza config). One more thing my 9.6.1 portable is installed/extracted? D:\fb2k\ and all is working OK most of the time, so c:\program files\foobar2000\ isn't a must  anyway THANX Br3tt for an awesome config. I am voting/asking (if i can...) for the next version to include Onkel Andys tweak.

Hey,
nice to talk with the master himself, aren´t you ... ;+)

First thanx for reply - i have a solution for moving foobar without titlebar --> with "Advanced Controls" ( http://www.niversoft.com/products/fac (http://www.niversoft.com/products/fac) ) you can hide or show foobar - and ( at least at my last conif I had - "FofR config" - similar to Br3tt Curacao -->  http://www.fooblog2000.com/category/config (http://www.fooblog2000.com/category/config) ) wich was working with PUI, position move was possibe by moving the dash panel.

i see that you have not tested yet (lol), the zone that you indicate as 'dash board' is no more a anchor because it's a PSS panel. The only way to move a window is to use the titlebar area.

try this : http://br3tt.free.fr/files/foobarrun.7z (http://br3tt.free.fr/files/foobarrun.7z)

extract the 2 files in the foobar2000 folder, then launch foobar with the fobarrun executable, you'll see that there is no dragable area.

Thank you !!
well - interesting. It´s a nice view now, but no real way to move, right! ...but so it´s may be possible to use the player as a kind of desktop-player, you know - instead the wallpaper. Not also so bad....
But - of course - it´s a little pitty - theres nearly no way to move it anymore - but one circumstantially:
you can fit the size on the edges and so you "can manoeuvre" the window across your screen.

I've been getting some fatal errors when I try to start foobar recently (with Curaco installed). It was doing fine for awhile, but now just about every time I shut my computer down and start it up again a different time, foobar fatals 2 or 3 times before it will actually load. It has done this with both Br3tt's Curaco version and the tweaked version now. I saved a few copies of the error reports that are created in Notepad when it fatals, so hopefully they will help in solving this problem.

I've noticed that I can slightly improve smoothness when scrolling by reducing the size of teh background image (wallpaper.jpg). I think originally it's 300KB, but I used Photoshop to reduce it (save for web and devices option) down to around 48KB!
It's improved smoothness in scrolling in the playlist for me. Could anybody else verify this for me?

tested, it's false... i have scrolled down a full playlist of 630 tracks with a background image very huge (~5Mb), it takes 22,6 seconds to reach the bottom with key down pressed. After converting the image to 186 Kb, same result : 22,6 seconds.

Ah, too bad... I guess it just felt faster. Hopefully there's something we can still find to improve scroll speed!

Hi Br3tt,

I put an additional panel with Playlist Tree Mod and Playlist Tree Mod Search

(http://www.abload.de/thumb/pltmartn.jpg) (http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=pltmartn.jpg)

But the search don't work - I push enter but nothing happens. It only works if I do it with Dockable Panels.

Do you know why?

thx in advance

Post by: Luxon on 2009-01-26 21:33:44
Thanks! That's a wonderful config! Thanks for sharing this one with us.

The only problem for now is that the config does not show the album art. It always shows the default album art picture. Both in the top left pane and the ALB pane with current albums in the list show at the bottom.

The code for the top left pane to display the album art I believe is
Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\folder.jpg)
$puts(artist.path,'C:/Program Files (x86)/foobar2000/artist/'%artist%'.jpg')


The code for the ALB pane at the bottom is
Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg))
$puts(artist.path,'C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\artist\'%artist%'.jpg')



Both as I said show the default album art only no matter if I have *.folder*.jpg file in the folder with audio files I play or not.

However, I know that the code for the Popup Plus panel works perfectly. It always shows the album art with the picture that resides in the same folder as the audio file.
The code for the PopUpPlus panel is

Code: [Select]
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*front.jpg)
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg)
$replace($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,),%directoryname%\,*front.jpg)
$replace($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,),%directoryname%\,*.jpg)


Could you please help me understand how do I change the code for the top left pane Uand the ALB pane to work the same way as the PopUpPlus does?

Could you please provide the proper code to render the album art the same way the PopUpPlus component does? Pleeeaase, it sooo disappointing to see album art not displaying in the foobar window when Popupplus just does it well.
I believe I would just slightly change these lines in config. But how?

Thank you.

i may be worng, but i think if your album arts have completly random names, there is no solution, as *.jpg doesn't work.

if you have different names, two or more different filenames for album arts, like cover.jpg or front.jpg, you can use them both, using $findfile
for example
Code: [Select]
$if($findfile(folder.jpg),$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\cover.jpg),$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\folder.jpg))


but your filenames have to be conform to a spefic foramt scheme, otherwise i see no possibilty

but i guess there are effective ways for mass renameing, just google for "batch rename"

sorry, i was wrong.
$findfile works different from what i thought

this code should do it:
Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg)

it searches your folder for any jpg files and shows you the first found.

1. Hmm, do have also official Playback Statistics (foo_playcount)?

2. You need an entry in the %album artist% Tag, eg. Various Artist. Look at ELPSettings-->Grouping-->Group Format there is the query for grouping.

Post by: Lonk NY on 2009-01-28 00:26:52
Thanks for all this info! I do have a couple questions tho...

1) Is there any way I can rate songs without having the file itself updated? That is, I would like to use the rating tool in Curacao (the 5 stars + the "heart") but I don't want the "Date Modified" for my files to change. Can the ratings be redirected to a database instead, such as foo_custominfo? Does the rating have to be updated within the file itself? Also, are there any settings for the rating system? I don't see a component or anything under Preferences to modify the song rating tool. I have both foo_playcount.dll and foo_playback_custom.dll installed, but only see options for Playback Statistics Custom in Preferences, and these all deal with playback stats, not ratings. I do have these set to save their stats in foo_custominfo database, so as long as I don't rate a song, the Date Modified does not change. Once I rate a song, however, the Date Modified updates to that date/time. Should I remove foo_playcount.dll?

2) I am using Curacao Tweaked and have ELPlaylist working with the *.jpg wildcard for album art. However, the "ALB." album "chronflow" at the bottom and the large album art above the lyrics section still don't work with *.jpg. Has anyone been able to figure out how to get these two working with JPG's named something other than folder.jpg or cover.jpg? Here is what the original Curacao Tweaked has for each:

Large Album Art Splitter above Lyrics:
Code: [Select]
$if($findfile($directory_path(%path%)\$replace(%directoryname%,",,?,,*,.,/,).jpg),
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\$replace(%directoryname%,",,?,,*,.,/,).jpg),
$if($findfile($directory_path(%path%)\folder.jpg),
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\folder.jpg),
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\cover.jpg)))


ALB Album chronflow-type splitter at bottom:
Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,$replace(%directoryname%,",,?,,*,.,/,).jpg))
$puts(cover.path1,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg))
$puts(cover.path2,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,cover.jpg))
$puts(playIcon,$get(foo_path)'images/play.png')


Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

1. No, you don't have to remove foo_playcount. The following code is for the official Playback Statistics, I don't know how it will interact with Playback Statistics Custom.

Rightclick on the stars at the left--->Settings - look at the code and replace the according part. Ratings are only written in Database then (foo_playcount). But this doesn't work with Skip and Mood cause these can only write tags.
Code: [Select]
    $if(%_isplaying%,

I have a similar problem. I set playback statistics to "Update when playback percentage is 50%". After selecting it, it works fine.
But every time foobar is restarted playcount updates after 60 seconds, the setting is the same, though.

Would be glad for any suggestions.

false, it's possible to skip the display of singles in graphical browser ,
group order is to set for

example, if singles are files which the tag %album% is empty (my case), set the GROUP by in GB settings like this ...

$if2(%album%,@skip)

You're right of course.

I've forgotten the @skip command, like it is in your group order of GB Artist.

Thanks for all the help Falstaff and Mr. Jackson 

That really helped me! Everything looks really good now 

One thing though, my Group-Code for Album-Graphical Browser looks like that:

Code: [Select]
$if($or($strstr(%genre%,'Tribute'),$and($strstr(%comment%,'Tribute'),stricmp(%album artist%,%artist%))),$swapprefix($replace(%original artist%,'Ä','Ae','ä','ae','Ö','Oe','ö','oe','Ü','Ue','ü','ue'),The,Die),$swapprefix($replace(%album artist%,'Ä','Ae','ä','ae','Ö','Oe','ö','oe','Ü','Ue','ü','ue'),The,Die))- $if2(%album%, Single)


Now I tried to just replace the last fragment... "$if2(%album%, Single)" to "$if2(%album%,@skip)"

but that didn't work (only @skip appeared below each single...) I had to delete all other code to to make it work, so now only "$if2(%album%,@skip)" is there.

Any chance to make it work with the above code too? Oh and now theres one big album @skip displayed which contain all my singles - this isn't a bad thing but I would like to get rid of that album or rename it.

[a href="http://imageshack.us" target="_blank"]

Here's my current code:
Code: [Select]
$if($or($strstr(%genre%,'Tribute'),$and($strstr(%comment%,'Tribute'),$not($stricmp(%album artist%,%artist%)))),$swapprefix($replace(%original artist%,'Ä','Ae','ä','ae','Ö','Oe','ö','oe','Ü','Ue','ü','ue'),The,Die),$swapprefix($replace(%album artist%,'Ä','Ae','ä','ae','Ö','Oe','ö','oe','Ü','Ue','ü','ue'),The,Die)) - $if($stricmp(%album artist%,%artist%),$if2(%release date%,%date%),) - %album% - %discnumber% - %tracknumber% - %title%


Anyone knows what to change to make it look right?

Thanks again for all help!

Hi El Noire,

I'm not sure if I understand you properly.

1. Album-Graphical Browser

I don't know how you got the text in the cover display, but with the following code no-album-cover-skipping works.

Code: [Select]
$if(%album%,$if($or($strstr(%genre%,'Tribute'),$and($strstr(%comment%,'Tribute'),stricmp(%album artist%,%artist%))),$swapprefix($replace(%original artist%,'Ä','Ae','ä','ae','Ö','Oe','ö','oe','Ü','Ue','ü','ue'),The,Die)%album%,$swapprefix($replace(%album artist%,'Ä','Ae','ä','ae','Ö','Oe','ö','oe','Ü','Ue','ü','ue'),The,Die)%album%),@skip)

Grouping scheme: if album--->original artist-album/album artist-album--->else skip cover


2.???

I don't understand for what this code is for, album-gb or artist-gb?

But nevertheless it's clear you'll get separate albums if you are sorting by original artist/album artist and album and you don't have "Various Artist" set to the album artist tag to keep the album together.

Thanks for the info on updating the rating system - worked great!

2. Have a look at the posts above yours.

I took a look at the posts above regarding using wildcards for JPG album art, but each time I add the below code, the entire theme goes black!

Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg)))

I am trying to add the above code to the large album art splitter in Curacao Tweaked, which uses this code:

Code: [Select]
$if($findfile($directory_path(%path%)\$replace(%directoryname%,",,?,,*,.,/,).jpg),
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\$replace(%directoryname%,",,?,,*,.,/,).jpg),
$if($findfile($directory_path(%path%)\folder.jpg),
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\folder.jpg),
$puts(cover.path,$directory_path(%path%)\cover.jpg)))

If I try to replace any/all of those lines, I get a black Foobar theme... I have my theme set to use the same background wallpaper no matter what album art is being used... I also haven't been able to get wildcards working with the album art "chronflow" splitter, which uses:

Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,$replace(%directoryname%,",,?,,*,.,/,).jpg))
$puts(cover.path1,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg))
$puts(cover.path2,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,cover.jpg))
$puts(playIcon,$get(foo_path)'images/play.png')

Where do I need to place the *.jpg line of code to get these two working with my album art that is named something other than folder.jpg or cover.jpg? Sorry if these are dumb questions... Thanks for your help.

//$puts(artist.path,'C:/Program Files (x86)/foobar2000/artist/'%artist%'.jpg')


This works! This code displays folder.jpg in the album frame and places back.jpg as a background for the playlist when playing this album.

However, what if there's no folder.jpg in the album folder?
Could you please help me realize how would I implement the following scheme:

Code: [Select]
If(folder.jpg) //if folder.jpg file is found in the folder
{ display // display this folder.jpg
    elseif cover.jpg //else if cover.jpg is found in the folder
        display cover.jpg //display that cover.jpg
    else //neither folder.jpg nor cover.jpg is found
        display *.jpg //display the first one found
}
   

Also, the
Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)))

line does NOT WORK for the ALB panel at the bottom.
The ALB panel now has the following script lines

Code: [Select]
$puts(cover.path,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg))
$puts(artist.path,'C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\artist\'%artist%'.jpg')


I commented them out and changed them the same way I did it for album cover:

Code: [Select]
//$puts(cover.path,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg))
//$puts(artist.path,'C:\Program Files (x86)\foobar2000\artist\'%artist%'.jpg')

$puts(cover.path,$findfile($replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg)))


However, the ALB panel keeps displaying standard nocover.png as the cover for all the album icons!
How do I make the icons show the album cover based on the folder.jpg found in the played folder? Or cover.jpg, or any other found .jpg file?

Thank you all for helping! You make my day.

Great - the album art panel is working great now - thanks for your help!

One more question - how can I get ELPlaylist to always play the song after the currently playing song in the playlist, rather than playing what is currently selected/highlighted? For example, if I am playing the first track in a playlist of 50 tracks, then add 10 songs to this playlist via Windows Explorer, those 10 new tracks will be highlighted and will start playing after the first track is finished playing. How can I tell ELPlaylist/Foobar to simply play tracks in order, regardless of what track is selected in the playlist (so if Foobar is playing Track 1, and Track 51 is highlighted in ELPlaylist, it will play Track 2 once Track 1 finishes playing)? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

uncheck the option Playback follows Cursor
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: SardonicWrath on 2009-02-04 21:33:09
this has nothing to do with el_playlist.
I don't have foobar on the pc i am using right now, but i think this option is to be found under main menu > playback
here you have those 2 options- playback follows cursor ans cursor follows playback.

edit: too slow... :-(

Hi everybody

First of all, thank you Falstaff for this damn fine config

Secondly, I have a small problem. If I understand this code correctly:

Code: [Select]
// ====================================================
// ---> Background cover display
// ====================================================
$puts(bg_image_alpha,140)

$if($isvisible_c(_DEFAULT_WALLPAPER),
      $puts(bg.path,$get(wallpaper))
      $imageabs(0,0,1152,864,$get(wallpaper),nodisplay,,)
      $puts(ratio,$div($mul($getimagewidth($get(wallpaper)),10),$getimageheight($get(wallpaper))))
,
  $if(%ps_isplaying%,
//    ---> artist ratio
      $imageabs(0,0,,,$get(artist.path),nodisplay,,)
      $puts(ratio,$div($mul($getimagewidth($get(artist.path)),10),$getimageheight($get(artist.path))))
      $puts(ratio.a,$get(ratio))
//    ---> album ratio
      $ifequal($get(ratio),0,
         $imageabs(0,0,,,$get(cover.path),nodisplay,,)
         $puts(ratio,$div($mul($getimagewidth($get(cover.path)),10),$getimageheight($get(cover.path))))
         $puts(ratio.b,$get(ratio))
         $ifequal($get(ratio),0,
             $puts(bg.path,$get(wallpaper))
             $imageabs(0,0,1152,864,$get(wallpaper),nodisplay,,)
             $puts(ratio,$div($mul($getimagewidth($get(wallpaper)),10),$getimageheight($get(wallpaper))))
        ,
             $puts(bg.path,$get(cover.path))
        )
      ,
          $puts(bg.path,$get(artist.path))
      )
  ,
      $puts(bg.path,$get(wallpaper))
      $imageabs(0,0,1152,864,$get(wallpaper),nodisplay,,)
      $puts(ratio,$div($mul($getimagewidth($get(wallpaper)),10),$getimageheight($get(wallpaper))))
  )
)



then the first background image is artist, if there is no artist image, than cover and than the wallpaper.

Now, artist and cover background work fine, but if there is no cover or artist picture, like for example while listening to radio, the background stays black.  Any solution for this?

So having another strange issue - not sure if it has anything to do with Curacao, but thought I would bring it up since you all have been so helpful...

Since switching to Curacao, my Last.fm scrobbler plugin hasn't been consistently working. It does not scrobble tracks, and when I open the Last.fm application, the "Now Playing" option is grayed out, even though a track is playing in Foobar. I have the latest version of Last.fm (1.5.2.38918) as well as the latest version of audioscrobbler (2.3.1). It looks like it scrobbled a few tracks about 3 or 4 days ago, and hasn't worked since. When I first open Foobar, the Last.fm tray app also opens, so they are cooperating somewhat... just that the scrobbling isn't happening... the playing track in Foobar does not show up in the Last.fm app.

Anyone have any ideas on this one? Thanks for any help you can give me!

You could check out the logs in Help -> Diagnostics in the Last.FM software. Although I think that going to Extras -> Download Plugins is the route that will most likely lead to success.

Yes I tried using Tools > Get Plugin to re-download/install the plugin which worked fine but still didn't fix the issue... I also tried uninstalling/reinstalling Last.fm & the plugin to no effect either (I also renamed the "Last.fm" local profile folder under C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\)... Thanks for the tip about Help > Diagnostics... below is a recent bit of the Scrobbling log. The "Cached Tracks" window was completely empty/blank. It did say that my Last Successful Connection was just now, although not sure if that is a successful connection to last.fm or to the Foobar scrobbling plugin. Here is some of the log (note that Foobar was playing tracks during this time) and there are some screenshots below:

Hi Brett,

First of all, awesome skin. But I have a small problem with it in Windows 7, see attached screen.

Basically, the letters above the playlist are cut off half, and I dont see buttons to drop down the media library etc. Any idea how this can be solved?

I had to edit the splitter settings, and change the foo.path variable to the full path, instead of just './'. This fixed it.

How did you get the extra tag info like "drum & bass" there? I wanted to have something similar with my custom %sub_genre% tag but could not find out how to do it. Also the middle field (msawdos // headsaw recordings) is that the standard %Genre% tag that is used here or did you find a way to change that and use 2 tags in the same field?

Sorry I can't answer your question.

its mainly to do with the parameters i've put in bold, i cant remember exactly what does what as it was very late lastnight when i finally figured it out. im sure if you compare it to your code you should be able to see what i have done.

as for the tags, i shifted them around so i have %genre% where it is and the other field is %comment% as i put the cat no. & record label in the comments box for all my files ("eg. MSAW005 // Mindsaw Recordings"). hope this helps, & does anyone have any ideas with my previous question?

Hello Br3tt,

first of all - thanks for your work and this nice plugin

I´m an german user and my english is not so well - sorry.

But now my problem.
I use curacao an the fonts are not right.  I must inform you, that I use vista and the dpi is scaled up to 192 dpi.

The product looked like this.

Is it possible to make it looking like usual. When I scale the dpi down ist looked allright. But I use an Sony 40" screen in my livingroom and I can´t read ist when the font ist only normal dpi. (the older or what do say in english....?? an eyeglasses don´t help at this case....)

Sorry- but I can´t fill in the image. Is it possible to send it to your mail-adress - thanks

thank you very much for your time you spend with reading and thinking!

But if I have an sampler the playlist looks really mixed up, because it's grouped by artist and not by album. How can I change this?

EDIT: problem solved^^

Also is there a foo_menu_addons compiled without SSE too?

I have an old Celeron that doesn't support SSE.

Hi Br3tt,

I had looked for hours but I didn't find an answer.

How will I get the BG Image in the Playlist Panel as sharp and without this litlle colour haze like in Kameleon?

Thanks in advance

Curaçao and Kameleon are very different, i can't point you all the lines to fix in Curaçao to obtain the same render as K. sorry, btw you have to find in the code where i use $gradientrect(...) which give this reflection effect in C, on replace it by $drawblurrect(...,250-250-250-30,7), good luck

[a href="http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/1450/curgx4.jpg" target="_blank"]

But those who helped I think were deactivating background filling in ELP Pannel and in Main Panel and drawing BG Image by $drawimage.

I saw a lot of code like Green/Red/Blue Overlay and drawing scanlines.pngs but I don't know what these are doing, I didn't see a difference by deactivating them.

I have managed to configure Curacao and it's fantastic.

However I have encountered a visual problem. My layout still has the original Foobar2000 header and status bar visible.

How do I remove them?
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: jazzthieve on 2009-02-19 17:10:44
upper toobar: Preferences > Columns UI > Main-tab > untic show toolbars

lower statusbar: Preferences > Colums UI > status bar-tab > untic show status bar

tip: I got my "show toolbar" assigned to a hotkey in case i do need the toolbar I have quick acces.

Click on VIEW

Untick SHOW STATUS BAR  and SHOW TOOLBARS

Or click the little arrows on the far left top and bottom /\

Post by: myvision on 2009-03-06 08:13:47
Maybe a really dumb question:

What do the stars mean in the layout? I thought they indicate the number of plays. But when I played a track 3 times and another twice, the one I played twice has a star and the one I played 3 times not.

Thanks in advance.

Post by: bubi jackson on 2009-03-11 17:56:07
1. Replace the Lyric Show Panel in Columns UI Layout - but I woudn't do that, if I don't know what I am doing.

2. Check hide panel on start up and uncheck the one you would like to see.

First of all, thank you for this beautiful theme which I am using since december (v.1.2a tweaked). I am currently editing it a little, which brings me to my two questions (which are pretty trite, I am afraid). Here it goes:

1.) I was able to get rid of the date shown in the header, however the album title still get's cut off. Where can I increase the width of the second line (in this case ending with the disc count) in order to use the free space? There is an awful lot of spacing and size related stuff in the "Group Header" script, and honestly I can't make heads and tails of it.

(http://666kb.com/i/b7cn6k3nru7qpwfih.png)

2.) I edited the script for the lyrics viewer (and solved the resulting conflicts with the keywords) to show some general information via the comment tag. It works pretty good so far, but I still need to put a blank line between the date/publisher line and the comment. I tried some stuff with symbols and queries but that is simply discarded instead of generating a blank line. There's got to be a simple code for this.

hey again, wondering if i can get some help of someone in the know.

im trying to update the rating system so it doesnt write it to file tags & just reads to & from the Playback stats database.
i tried a script from this thread for this but it only semi works, it appears to write to file when you first click a star/rating then when you re-rate it (ie from 5 to 4) it unwrites the tag& reads the database, but then if i go to re-rate again it goes back to writing to tag & continiues to follow this behaviour.

heres the script that i currently have on it:

Code: [Select]
// Background

I'm using this and the official Playback Statistics Plugin and it's working fine.


Edit: I compared the two scripts with nozepad+ again, and this is the only difference between yours and mine. I really don't know why it's not working.

Do you have Quick Tagger with a rating script installed? Then a command like "1" in trackinfo will trigger both, the rating to database and the Quick Tagger script.

Now I remember, there was something with identical script names.
Thx qwertz for recalling this.

But Jack, you don't have to remove quicktag, just rename the rating scripts to other than 1-5 or delete only them (maybe you still want using QT for some other purpose)

Also, I've tried hard to change the sizes of the left panels with lyrics "zoomed in", but something always messes up.
Can I make them a bit bigger and keep cover art bigger than lyrics panel at the same time?
something like this

im wondering if anyone can help me out.

iv added a few mods to this theme, 1 of which is a filter via the panel stacker as shown here:

(http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk161/jackschmaltz/filter-foobar.png)

my question is, how can i adjust the width of the individual filters?
when i hover over them i get the resive icon but im unable to resize & iv tried changing different variables but to no avail.
im not fused if the width i change it too is permanent but would like to be able to adjust the size to my personal preference.
i added it by stacking 3 filters in a panel stacker & adding it to the playlists stack if that helps.

thanks for your time
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: bubi jackson on 2009-05-14 05:30:24
I think you can define the width by script in the per track tab of the PSS where ELP and the others are - but I don't know exactly how to do it.

Have a look at Br3tt's script and the PSS Readme.

thanks for the response Bubi but from what i can gather from that Per Track tab it only lets me define the size of the actual box/panel and wont let me resive the individual panels contained inside.
so im assuming i need to define it somehow in the PSS for the filters, but i could be wrong.
if i recall correctly the xchange config had this with resizable filters so i'll take a look at that & see what i can figure out.

Curacao still rocks! Just added biography, Scaicha and Wikipedia button 
It's the perfect musicplayer for me now! Only one problem left: I noticed  that there are no playback statistics displayed under the Library Playback Statistics Button! I changed the settings of playback custom plugin to only allow writing tags in foo_custominfo Database - is this a known problem or I'm missing something here?

EDIT
Found the answer. foo_custominfo Database needs the custominfo.dll plugin which doesn't work for current foobar version. So I added offical playback plugin and changed every %play_counter% into %play_count% and it works now

i had a look at the Xchange config & found a Horizontal Splitter was placed in the PSS, i tried it & sure enough now it works, resizable filters... result!

i cant help but extend & modify this theme to my own way, its so easy to do so as everything is so clearly laid out & not to tricky to figure out.

now, for my next quest (haha)! iv started adding custom run services with buttons etc. but iv hit a stumbling block.
i have my %comment% tag set up with cat no. & label info, eg. "MSAW005 // MindSaw Recordings".
now, id like to be able to search Discogs with just the label name, so would there be anyway via a syntax command to remove everything to the left of "//" so that it will send just "MindSaw Recordings" to discogs?
im currently working around it by querying the path as i have my collection sorted by label, but the way id like to do it would be more affective to me as some labels contain characters i cannot use in file names.

if anyone could point me in the right direction with this i would be gratefull, cheers.

You still stay with Curacao? Nice

Why don't you use the Discogs-Tags for Catalog and Label instead of writing both in the comment? So do I and it's easy with foo_discogs or Mp3Tag und usung foo_run then.

The Title Formatting String for you is maybe something about $strchr and $left, but I would have to think very very much about it to get a solution.

yes, im still with Curacao, absolutley love it. quick, clean & easily expandable, i dont think i want much else from a theme really haha!

i would retag all my mp3's to an easier standard as you suggested but with over 40k of files to retag, it would stilll take a very long time. i implemented this standard of my own a while before i started using foobar, as if i started it knowing what i know now i cetainly would of made it easier for myself by seperating these tags but nevermind.

i thought $left may be along the lines of what i was after but wasnt sure what to combine it with. i will have to have a play with that & the $strchr command & see if i can figure it out.

I've just updated foobar to v0.9.6.7 and lost my default background image. It is still there in the folder...just does not show. Any tips?
Also I noticed that the "rating stars" no longer show either in line with the track info or at the lower left hand corner. However once I rate (right click>playback stats>rating) the rating stars show up for that track.
Previously when I updated to v0.6.6 the rating stars were visible but couldn't rate by clicking on the stars. It seems as though with every new update the rating feature is being cut back. Any solution this?

'Tis a minor thing... just thought I would mention it.

I've been trying to get Curacao v1.1a to work without any luck. I'm new to foobar2000 but I have used skins with it before and I'm pretty good with computers in general.
I downloaded...

Curacao_v1_1a_Released_by_Br3tt

fonts-xchange

components-xchange

I've followed the instructions. I installed the fonts to C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\  I've copied the components to \foobar2000\components\  And the instructions say to extract the Curacao_v1_1a to the \foobar2000\ folder and that it would automatictly creat a new folder called "Skins" and a new sub folder called "xchange" however, when I try to extract it to that folder I just get an error message saying that it can't do it. I can extract the files to my desktop so I did so. Then I created a folder within the foobar2000 folder and named it skins. and I created a folder within the skins folder and named it xchange and I placed the files that I extracted to my desktop into that folder. Now the instructions say to go to "Preferences > Display > ColumnsUI > Main tab and click the 'Import'" I click import and I select the Xchange.fcl file and I get the following message "The layout import was aborted because the following required panels where not installed: Graphical Browser, Track info mod, WSH Panel" This is where I'm at a loss. Any help would be great!

Please understand this is a shot in the dark - I use none of these. BUT are you somehow
combining instructions to two different config?
He has Curacao - which, by the way - is at version 1.2 and Xchange.

AS Curacao came out first, I would wonder why there would be any mention of an xchange sub folder.

@jesusfreak: you need to extract the image folders to foobar2000/images/curacao (ie. so you have "foobar2000/images/curacao/bg ...etc)
also, the reason you'll be getting error messages is that Vista (which i assume your using) wont allow you to extract archives to the Program folders.

im not sure how you managed to get the 2 config instyuctions confused but what you had was definetly the xchange notes.

EDIT: just had a quick look at the 1.2a archive, if you extract that & just place it directly in your foobar directory you should be good to go

No. That page has instructions for more than one configuration. In the event that you have more than just an error in directory structure, I would suggest to start again with the correct set of instructions and I am sure you will be fine.

Mine just puts the album cover of the album I'm listingint to as the background image. Sometimes this works fine but other times the album cover is not the best image to use for the background. There was nothing in the instructions that told how to change the background image

All my music is properly tagged and all shows up correctly but when I click on one of the letters at the top to see the artists that start with that letter, I see a big mix of artists, most of them not even starting with the letter I selected

iirc it changes automatically to the artist picture if you have one and the path is right.

... But if anyone can explain that playlist problem to me in a way that I can understand it that would be great!


if im recalling correctly it hooks to the currently selected playlist & just jumps to the 1st album artist in the playlist, it doesnt single them out in a new playlist.

so, say you have a playlist with every letter in the alphabet album artist wise, if you press C it will set focus to the first album artist beginning with C, similar to how the now playing button works.

i hope this helps

EDIT: on further investigation im half right, it brings the focus to the 1st album artist of the said letter & also highlights all other album artists with the same letter in the playlist, this seems like standard behaviour

@jesusfreak: long time ago. What was the problem, can you tell me please?

and jack is right, but remember only album artists get selected. So artists in a compilation (Various Artist) won't get selected.
If your playlist isn't sorted in a right way (alphabetical order) it looks like GB would select artists in a random order, a little bit.

And for trying out my code for ELP and GB.

ELP: Right click in ELP>>Settings>>Tab Grouping>>Group Format/Sort Format
GB: Right click on the letters>>Settings>>Group/Sort

Btw, you don't have to click on the letters, keyboard is also working very well. eg, type G and the first album artist with G is selected or type the first letters of a band and the cursor jumps to the band.
Turn on the Status Bar and have a look

Hey Br3tt, great config you've created here! Huge props!
I'm trying to personalize my config a bit more but I'm going to need some help.



Once again, great job on the interface, I hope you continue to develop on this or at least keep it up to date with any new version releases of foobar2000.

@KeyLogic

1) dont know, sorry

2) change the definitions highlighted in this picture which can be found under elplaylist settings:

)

4) in the installation instructions where it tells you to define your cover/art path/s, if you replace ".jpg" with ".*" it should (in theory / i think) load up any image extension

5) i dont quite understand what you want here im afraid

Aw, I'm so sorry to hear that. I mean no offense to your other design but the Curaçao looks and functions much better in my opinion.
Oh well, I'll keep updating foobar until it breaks compatibility.

@KeyLogic

1) dont know, sorry


Okay I'll keep looking around in the settings, maybe there's something that will do this this.

Thanks again! I should have thought to check there. Question: where are the buttons for the controls like the extension, khz, and channel (bottom-left)?

Ah, will try this. Thanks!

Eh, don't worry about it, I think that it looks fine to me right now, it blends pretty well with the rest of the interface.

I'll post a screenshot once I make the final tweaks.

for duration look for this line under Track List settings:

Code: [Select]
$drawtextex(%length%' ',$add($sub(%el_width%,$add($get(length_width),$get(padding_right))),1),$add($get(txt.top),1),$get(length_width),%el_row_height%,44-44-44,right vtop end_ellipsis)
$drawtextex(%length%' ',$sub(%el_width%,$add($get(length_width),$get(padding_right))),$get(txt.top),$get(length_width),%el_row_height%,[b]%__ARTIST_COLOR__%[/b],right vtop end_ellipsis)

i cant remember if i set it to %__ARTIST_COLOR__% manually or not but if it isnt that then adjust as you require.
then in Per Second look for the line:

Code: [Select]
$drawtextex('-'%_time_remaining%' ',$add($sub(%el_width%,$add($get(length_width),$get(padding_right))),1),$add($get(txt.top),1),$get(length_width),%el_row_height%,44-44-44,right vtop end_ellipsis)
$drawtextex('-'%_time_remaining%' ',$sub(%el_width%,$add($get(length_width),$get(padding_right))),$get(txt.top),$get(length_width),%el_row_height%,[b]$get(txt_color)[/b],right vtop end_ellipsis)

same again, adjust the bold text as required

as for the file info in the bottom left, right click on it & select "splitter settings", & its all under the script tab

Sup all.

I've got a few more questions.


4) in the installation instructions where it tells you to define your cover/art path/s, if you replace ".jpg" with ".*" it should (in theory / i think) load up any image extension


Hey Jack Schmaltz. Unfortunately this didn't work. Is there a way to add all 6 configurations: cover.jpg/folder.jpg/front.jpg, and cover.png/folder.png/front.png?
Title: Curaçao by Br3tt
Post by: Jack Schmaltz on 2009-09-09 02:27:52
1, if your referring to the info on the left panel, right click>>splitter Settings>>script>>per second, scroll to the bottom & everythings there

2, right click seekbar>>highlight "WSH SEEKBAR">>configure>>look for lines starting with "gr.FillGradRect(" (should be 5 in a row), cant remember which lines specificaly but the adjustments need to be done there

3, dont know sorry

as for the cover art, really dont know how else it can be done in ELP if the wildcard doesnt work, maybe someone else can enlighten but considering the way its configured prob best to try & standardise your cover names to fit.

Question: is there away to remove the window decoration from around the interface or, if not, can I get foobar to point to a particular visual style that's not currently loaded on my desktop?

do you mean the panels? if you do its coded in the script with drawroundrect's, you could remove them but i wouldnt recomend it as it would make a tremendous mess of the script

I just found this theme and I love it.  There is a few things I would like to add but I am not sure of the syntax.  Perhaps you guys can help.
1. I would like to add a biography link to the top right set of buttons.  I am not sure how to add a new button up by the album list and all.
2. I would like to remove the track number from the track listed under the album art
3. can the stars under the album art be set up to be clickable for rating? Also does the rating in the lower left set the rating in the actual MP3 tag or in the database.  I don't want to write to my tags if I can help it.
4. how can I make the got lyrics icon show if there is a .lrc file as well as embedded lyric.

Thanks
