First I remove my mod, as you can see the standard font shows when it don't find the specified font.
Then I add the original 7 segment font and you can see that the digits 9, 6, 4 shifts to the left and then 3, 2, 1 and 0 starts to shift back to right.

After that, I replace it with my mod and you'll see it don't shifts anymore, like it's supposed to be.

Is it only me that have this problem?


No! Now that you said it I regognized it too that the digits are shifting...
So please upload your mod  it would be great!

Thanks to Andresvb efforts it's all good again,no digit shifting no headache.I've updated the link to the 7 Segment font on the first topic,if you have any problems with font shifting,uninstall your old 7 Segment font
and get a new one from the first post.Thanks Andreas.

For anyone who is interested, I use a slightly modified version of Russel777's code replacing the track number display with a display indicating whether follow the cursor during playback has been activated.

Thanks for posting that.  I noticed that I too have an issue with box "2" truncating Artist-Title information despite having plenty of space with which to work.  A fix would be great, as I'm just learning this scripting language.

The truncating of the artist - title display so as not to use all the available space can be easily fixed by the value you place for window in the definitons section in the beginning of the code.  The higher the value you place on window the longer the artist - title display will be.  Play around with the number until you get  it so that you use the desired amount of available display space for artist - title display.

Perfect.  Thanks for your help.

i'm having a few problems.

#1 the track title i cannot get to scroll.  if it's too long it just creates another line below and covers the progress bar.

#2 it doesn't seem to log any of the "played" info.  on every song no matter how many times i've played it, it always says never.

thanks in advance.

#1:In the "Definitions" section there's a variable named "window"-reduce it's value untill it's all good again
#2:It's because you don't have the "foo_playcount.dll" installed,check "Wanted v0.9 plugin ports" topic
on the "3rd party plugins" thread to get it.

VERSION 1.7.3 MICRO IS OUT (check the first post)
This one is a real space saver.It's small and smart,has all the features of V 1.7.2 but significantly smaller.
Definately my choice,as i have a compact config.

Added:
-Mood
-Horizontal progressbar and relative format quality indicator
-All the tech info now changing with 2 second delay as following:bitrate->samplerate->file size
->compression->source.
-The verbal section now shows Last played instead of First played info.

thanks for the fast response.  window size worked nicely.  i was doing the opposite...incresing it, lol.

as for the playcount...it only works if you use the media library/database?

i use a file explorer because i have my mp3's very organized.

As you probably have noticed there are two versions of this plugin:official and unofficial.
The first works only with files that are in your media library and the second gives you the choice
(if i remember correctly)

Currently there is no possibility to change the size of all the info,b/c it would take a very complicated code to make it as it will cause all the elements to lose their allignment.But what info are you talking about:
tech info or the artist-title info?Also what version are you using?
PS:But maybe it's a good idea to make it anyway,but i'll need much more requests to do it.

thanks again fro your prompt replies russell :]  i've got it running pretty close to how i'd like it.  still plenty of tweaking to go but it's 75% there.



ah, one question.  where in the code can i make the date MM_DD_YY as opposed to DD_MM_YY?

Well I've sucseeded in enlarging the now playing time, but the rest stays the same. I'm using v 1.7.2
I'm trying to make the track info window bigger because its on the same splitter as lyrics and artwork.
Don't worry about it, if it's that complicated I'll think of another layout!

Once again thanks

In the definitions section:$puts(YY_MM_DD,1) will do the trick.Also when you are finished can you upload your
theme for v1.8 (as it's totaly lacking any themes by now)?

Small question, how does the mood display work?

How do I rate the files with a mood, is it from 1-3

Whats the difference between mood and rating?

You got it. The Mood tag consists of a number 1-3.  The 1-3 scale is based on one of the major music review website methodologies, but I forget which one (read about it in one of threads here).  1 represents low energy, 2 medium, and 3 high.  Simplicity in subjective criteria like this is, in my opinion, the key to whether such a system works as intended.  When there are a lot of mood categories there are going to be a lot of misclassifications and resulting heavy tracks playing when you selected a track wanting to hear something more mellow. You also need to consider the genre of the music when assigning a mood and not merely its tempo.  As such, a medium energy techno track may have a higher tempo than a high energy rock track.  Rating works with numbers 1 to 5 and works just as you would expect.  1 terrible, 2 below average, 3 average, 4 above average, 5 great.  Like mood, you also need to consider the genre.  If you have track in a genre that you particularly do not like, you should consider that when rating the track and ask youself even though I don't like this style of music, how good is this track in terms of the particular genre.  The use of mood and rating together opens the doors to some interesting things.  For example, you can create dynamic playlists consisting of high energy rated 5 tracks, etc.  Likewise, if you want to be mellow but not too mellow and want a wider variety of tracks and not just the great ones, create a playlist consisting of moods low to medium energy and rating of greater than 3.  The result will be a group of tracks that are not heavy and above average to great.  Plus, the use of both of them with artist via a  browser panels is a powerful way to manipulate one's library to quickly obtain desired results.    When you add genre into the mix you can create some really precise dynamic playlists like low energy rated 4-5 rock tracks.  You can see how I use these tags for library management in the appearance thread link  I posted several posts up.
