@ilovefb2k
Thx.

Can you add an option to the right click menu for Background color? Option No fill or Transparent. Which effectively disables the painting of the background which is being done in line 503 and 504.

Can you add an option to the right click menu to set the margins (properties HA.METER.Left Margin and HA.METER.Top margin)?

The original VUmeter stretches to fill the window/panel it lives in. Your script fills from top/left until it reaches bottom/right margin but keeps aspect ratio. Would it be possible to add an option so your script stretches too?

How do you get the base images and needle for a VU meter? Is there a tool to rip them from an existing VUmeter BIN file?

^ The OP stated in first post they are using 32-bit foobar, and looks like Columns UI...

@ Dackbuttress - Can you find the column pattern for the 'Title' column? (where the playcount is right-aligned). What do you get if you right-click the 'Title' column header?

General - (fb2k) / Re: How do I convert files and output to a new folder on the same level as source?
Last post by anamorphic -
Hi there,
Are your files correctly tagged such that they match the folder names for "Artist\Album"? If so, why not simply use tags -

Under 'Output style and file name formatting > Name format' -

For AAC preset -
Code: [Select]
%album artist%\%album%\aac\%filename%

For WAV preset -
Code: [Select]
%album artist%\%album%\wav\%filename%

Etc... making a different preset for each format you want to convert to. Edit: If you really need to replicate folder structure, codec folder is done the same way, different preset per format.

Hi.
JSP AIMP analog VU Meter:
context menu > Setting > check setting > FL > FR OK → OK

Is this automatic?
Hi @Air KEN and @all,
As per some feedback and suggestions , please find the JSP3 "AIMP Analog VU Meter" update attached, version named "1.0.1 QM 05-11-24" for convenient reference.

This update addresses some points:
- High CPU load.
- Covering some very special cases, which were not easy to find a skin for, but they are there, finally. We also attached some for your quick loading:
   + The needle is upside down. Technically, the y_needle coordinates can be in (>=0) or outside (<0) the background area.
   + The needle is horizontal.
   We find it very interesting as, to some extent, we could not think of such skins existing early on. Wow, what creativity from us as an audio lovers community.

On the way back home, I also thought of an option (as per @Air KEN's feedback of 'check setting'), where we can adjust a little bit the Max/MinLevel to let the needle follow fb2k's audio engine (tweak): push the MaxLevel straight up to +3dB, and pull the MinLevel back to earth at -60dB. This, as my quick observation, has very little impact on the needle movement. But, it is there, so why not give it a try.

Consequently, I am quite confident that this update covers almost 99% of analog/needle (not LED) AIMP VU meter skins as listed here [https://www.aimp.ru/forum/index.php?topic=52865.0].

As noted, please unzip the attached file to retain the folder structure, then copy them to the root or 'profile' folder of fb2k (or we can make some changes as suggested by @sveakul https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?msg=1053489)
Thank you to those who have given us positive and constructive feedback to keep the light going on. I hope this brings you all a little bit more joy.
Important: Please note that this is for look & feel only, not real VU meter. and, the formula is as following:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
and those script to adapt AIMP Vu Meter into @marc2003's JSP3  [now, i have no idea why some text is there]
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
due to my limited-resource, i am sorry in advance for later reply, if any.
And now, I have to rush for a 4P pizza  as my lovely wife is right behind me.

Regards,

Last post by sveakul -
1028 looks like a major re-write; instead of just the "install over the existing one" I will do a complete uninstall of the existing 1025 first: remove the element from JSP3 panel, remove from the FB Components list, manually delete the profile/es-lyric data folder, and the file foo_uie_eslyric.dll.cfg from profile/configuration.  Restart twice.  Install 1028 and cross fingers!  No sweat as have fb2k portable folder backed up easy.  Remember to re-add modified-for-streams source scripts (Metallum, LRCLIB).  Translated change list:

1.  Adjust the internal resource update logic, after updating the plugin, it will be forced to overwrite the built-in resources for the first time, please backup the script that comes with the plugin if you change it.
2.  Lyrics rendering adjustment, more accurate calculation of spacing/line spacing, please re-adjust if necessary after updating.
3.  Optimize lyrics dragging experience, highlighting lines more accurately.
4.  Optimize CPU usage when not playing
5.  Add plug-in file name verification
6.  Layout module internal modification, to be updated
