snotlicker, thank you for the help. these days i'm trying to optimize my 2 scripts (using your advices and codes)
currently it seems that both new scripts are finally normal
this is the new
script-2 (for the 'playlist view'):
$div(%length_seconds%,60) $if($not($greater($len(%length_ex%),8)),$substr(%length_ex%,3,4),$if($greater($len(%length_ex%),10),$substr(%length_ex%,6,7),$substr(%length_ex%,4,5))) $right(%length_ex%,3)
this the new
script-1 (for the 'playlists switcher panel'):
$ifgreater($len(%length%),6,$add($mul($substr(%length%,0,$sub($strstr(%length%,:),1)),60),$substr(%length%,3,4)) $right(%length%,2),$substr(%length%,0,$sub($strstr(%length%,:),1)) $right(%length%,2))$tab()%size%
i will re-check them later (in hope that there will be no additional issues)
if anybody sees some mistakes, let me know
musicmusicYes, I could easily add the other length field variants as well
(if it's technically easy for you)
please help me to solve a long-time problem. i need to see the milliseconds in the 'playlists switcher panel'
it will remove the huge inconvenience when foobar is rounding up the seconds (sometimes minutes)
- the solution may appear for the 'playlists switcher panel' (at least for this very important part of foobar)
- the problem will seemingly stay in the standard playlist manager (i don't know at all how to add the milliseconds there)
my version of 'columns ui' is 0.3.6.4 (foobar is 0.9.6.4)
if i knew how to edit/create the corresponding dll (foo_ui_columns.dll), then i would have done it myself without bothering you with the request that is so special
(mainly because the version of 'columns ui' is not new at all, but i know what i'm doing,
and i really need to keep using this exact version of foobar and this version of 'columns ui' that is compatible with my foobar)
example: currently foobar displays (in 'playlists switcher panel') (minutes and seconds):
84 27
while in reality the duration is 84 26 503
so my tiny wish is to see
84 26 503
instead of 84 27
84 27 is misleading and wrong, if we speak about seconds (it's important for me)
84 27 is not informative, if we speak about milliseconds (i often need the complete info)
the current foobar's approach can even lead to displaying of wrong minutes (in cases like 79 59 500 or 59 59 716)
