Version 2.1 is reported in preferences/components as 2.0!

Is it possible to tile an albumart image (and if not would you consider looking into making it possible)?  We can already view the images normally or apply different methods of stretching and scaling. It seems only natural we would eventually want to tile them.

Thank you for all your work modifying one of the most popular and useful components for foobar.

Also, %ispaused% doesn't seem to work at all (it would be nice if it worked),

One additional thing to note, I dont know if this is a bug or not but I've noticed that sometimes if you add a new variable to a source (as in, a %variable% that isnt anywhere else in the panel config) that it wont get processed properly until you restart foobar. If you spend the time to come up with a good block of code but you think a new variable is not working you may want to restart foobar before giving up on the approach.

Has anyone tried splitting the frames of an animated GIF and then have albumart cycle through them at maximum speed, for faux animation?  I wonder if it would be fast enough.  (Does 0 mean no delay, or no cycling?)  I guess it would depend on the original animation.  Obviously, you'd have to disable transitions.

Just a tiny suggestion: Could you make the default "Inactive selection background (no focus)" color in the "Playlist switcher" R=228, G=228, B=235, which is the corresponding default color for the regular playlist and looks much better than using the same gray as the UI elements.

Nothing serious, but I can confirm that.  Another odd thing is that I didn't lose my settings for the panel when upgrading too.  Compile date is right, version number is not.  I can't tell if anything is different though.

I may have found a bug. If i am listening to a song and that i change the cover while playing, i cant refresh it, it does nothing. I need to load a track with another cover then go back to the cover i changed to see the change.

When you say "change the cover", do you mean you actually replace the .jpg file on your disk?  Did you try doing a "Refresh" (right-click on the panel, then select "Refresh")?  Which version are you using?  The "refresh" function was one of the "minor tweaks and fixes" I made in version 0.2.0, so make sure you're using the latest version and let me know if it's still a problem.

i have a question: i installed albumart and choose a picture if the albumart isnt available, but if i shift to an album where the cover is available, i have to right click -> next source, is there a way to let album art search for the next source automaitcally?

$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)cover.*
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)*
-$if($strcmp($left(%path%,7),http$char(58)$char(47)$char(47)),components\online-radio.*,components\no-cover.*)

Are there any plans to display Neroaactag embedded cover art?

After you add the panel to your layout, right click to open up the preferences. Since you can add multiple album art panels now, each one has its own preferences....just like the Track Info panel.

Is it possible to add HTTP support to this plugin? I have a little PHP script running on localhost that uses AWS to download album art. It'd be pretty sweet if I could use it.  :P

But it isn't an option in my layout tab so I can't add it

This is what I have

Please see posts 481, 482, 486, and 488. This has recently been discussed in this same thread and I got the impression gfngfgf is working on it's implementation.

Please search the forum before asking questions or making suggestions.
