Where do they get separated? The playlist or the Library Tree?


Only in library tree, (The AL Tab in the upper left corner)  and only in artist browser...., in the album browser its good.

You can click sort by default or sort by date in the left click menu and then they sort fine, but wen you click on another artist the get seperated again...
When i send artist to playlist they are also seperated.

It seems that the problem is in either group format or sort format in the grouping tab of EL playlist settings?? (Set to default)
and/or that program wont remember the  sort by date or default setting from the left click menu.

Nice skin btw.
Foobar runs little slower but it looks too good.

Hello guys,

I have been trying to tweak this skin for past couple of days and I have managed to do some minor changes with the help of some posts in this thread.

This is how mine looks now:

Now what I want to do is to move my filters (and then the Channel Spectrum Panel) to the space in between Quick Search Toolbar and the Playlist.

My problem is that although I managed to create that space below the Search Toolbar (by changing $puts(toolbar.h,40) under //-----Toolbar), I can't seem to insert the filters or the channel spectrum panel.

My reason to do move the filters and the spectrum there -> I want to keep my Now Playing info and cover turned on all the time, for which the instructions are in this thread, so I won't have problems with that one.

Any help is appreciated guys. Thanks.

I just download the lastest version 1.1c from deviantart and think I found in the bug in the Playlist:
Code: [Select]
$font(%font.dafault%)

Should be default.

I am trying to get Foonight but have a few complications. I installed all the components it said but there was a missing plugin called - (lyricshow) foo_uie_lyrics, I assumed it was foo_uie_lyrics_panel (lyrics panel) but it didn't work so i did a google and forum search and i could only find a modified version - http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index....showtopic=55691
Could someone link me to the official version?

Also there was an XML file and it told me to open it up in notepad and import the settings to foobar, how can i do this?

And also where can i download Calibri, Segoe UI, Tahoma Fonts?

Preferences > Tools > Run Services:

2 ways:
1. export current services setup to XML and merge them with XML file provided then import new XML file
2. just import provided XML file - this is the easy way, but you'll lose current services (at least the author said is so)

Could you explain it in a noobier term? i went to preferences > Tools 

But couldn't find " Run Services "

I found a text box with some codes inside at Preferences > Tools > Lyric Show Panel and went to the formatting string tab but i don't think it has anything to do with what you were talking about

that means you don't have foo_run in your components folder.

Ok, thanks.

1 last problem.

For some reason i cannot get foobar to monitor my music folder. It is in a seprate partition and it says the folder is being monitored but it's not, i tried on C drive but the same problem. It only shows in foobar if i play the actual file.

I'm not familiar with this skin, but you need some media library viewer: I guess pressing "Al" button will show you your album list, or use quick search toolbar

Hi,

first let me say congratz to the author of this skin, it looks great.

I`ve installed foobar on a new computer and right now i`m trying to use this skin.
This thread already helped me with some of my initial problems, but there are still some problems left , so i`m hoping some of you will be able to help me out.
Right now, im not able to rate my songs, the play counter also doesnt work and there is no information of when was the first and last time that i played a certain song.
Since this is a completly new installation i may be missing some dll-files? I`ve installed all the files required in the Readme.txt that came with the skin, do i have to install some aditional dll-files to use these features?

Thanks in advance for your help, and sorry for my "not so perfect" english, i`m from Portugal

I wonder if you have in your components folder:

foo_playcount.dll

and/or

foo_playback_custom.dll

If you have them right click on one song, and in the context menu choose playback statistics/rating.

Hope it helps

Does anyone know how to get the Tagging buttons under the Utils tab to work? I've been messing with a lot of the settings and this is pretty much the only thing I can't get to work right.

This might sound like the biggest noob question of all time, but it is. This is the first time I'm trying a skin with foobar, so don't yell at me just yet. I imported the XML in the Run, didn't change the look, it says to import the flac., how? I went to Deafult > Import Theme and doesn't find it.

I'm obviously doing something wrong. but all the readme says is:
Quote
"Restart foobar and import foonight.fcl."


BTW, Great theme, can't wait to get it working :3

First things first
a) be sure that all the components required are installed. Be sure that the mandatory components are the latest versions of them. They must reside at the components folder in your foobar install. In particular You must have columns UI, which is the user interface that foonight/day was designed for. Be sure also to have installed ibgpng and zlib libraries  your foobar2000 directory. If you do not have them check at :

http://yuo.be/columns.php

b)Copy the images folder to your foobar install

c) copy the fcl file somewhere in your foobar install  (this is not a flac file, it is not music, it is THE configuration file). I usually have this one on a special folder called themes or skins (you must create it)

d)Assuming that you were using default UI, when you  start foobar, it will ask you which UI you want to use, choose Columns UI

e)Go to file prferences, Display, Columns UI, Main, FCL Importing-Exporting, Import, and locate the fcl

f) Do not use the xml

That should do the trick

How do you fix the album list when there's an album with various artists? It comes up as seperate albums, but i just want all the songs that have the same tagged album to be aligned directly underneath each other like normal albums with no various artists.

Like this

Tag field:
%album artist% = some constant of your choice across all tracks
%Album% = album
%Artist% = changes based on track artist.

Whatever script is controlling the grouping needs to have %artist% changed to %album artist%

should work regardless of foobar skin / interface

terry

If you would like visually see the track artist name, you have many choices. One would be to tack [ - %track artist%] on to the end of your tracks  title string.

Hi,
I've been using this FooNight since it came here with my XP, but i installed Windows 7 64-bit and after that when i installed latest foobar2000 and this skin with all .dll files that is needed and for some reason i have volume option in my ratings, and even seekbar... Does anyone have any idea what went wrong in my install or is it because of Windows 7?
