@ vonmeth, I use this code

Code: [Select]

$imageabs(4,$add(25,$mul(-21,%tracknumber%)),'images\albums\'%album artist%'.'%album%'.png',)

I had to change it a bit to fit where my files are, but it seems to work fine on my end.
I did take out the apostrophes, see if that helps any.

Edit: To further clarrify, I used Tool - 10,000 Days, and had the image named Tool.10,000 Days.jpg

strange, because my Tool.10,000 Days is not working. It's not the spaces bad. The comas are the ones taht make the cover don't work. I need to change the %album% tag ;(

[a href="http://img132.imageshack.us/my.php?image=2641026631390642is1.jpg" target="_blank"]

I've posted a new version which fixes the playback status not changing.

The arguments for $imageabs2 are

<snip>

$imageabs(5,$add(25,$mul(-25,%tracknumber%)),'d\my music\full albums\'$if2(%album artist%,%artist%)'\'%album%'\folder.png',)

$imageabs2(150,150,0,$mul(25,$add(%tracknumber%,-1)),150,0,5,,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)folder.jpg,)

Why is it that songs with 1 playcount don't have the "x" after them and don't align with the rest?

Code: [Select]

$padding(35,0)$align(right,bottom)[%play_counter%$if($greater(%play_counter%,1),x )]

Also as you can see album art has lines going through it, and it does this on some albums but not all of them. Is there a fix for this yet?

And one final thing, as you can see album art is showing up, but images (noalbum.png, artoverlay.png) in the foobar images directory are not. How can that be fixed? Thanks.

Code: [Select]

$imageabs(4,$add(25,$mul(-21,%tracknumber%)),'images\noalbum.png',)
$imageabs2(107,107,0,$add(-23,$mul(%tracknumber%,23)),,,,,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg),)
$imageabs(4,$add(25,$mul(-21,%tracknumber%)),'images\artoverlay.png',)

why use the $if $greater. surely that will only draw an x if the count is more than 1? 

try

Code: [Select]

$padding(35,0)$align(right,bottom)[%play_counter%x]

this is because your files are not a fixed 1:1 ratio. you can resize them yourself or wait for a fix? whether you'll get one anytime soon, i don't know....

i'm guessing your imageabs code is broken. you might as well use imageabs2 for your noalbum/overlay and then at least the postional/size code will be the same.

Thanks for the suggestion, marc2003, But that still makes single files get grouped together. I prefer to leave them at their designated sort place, just without any headers

Well, if i write nothing in the Group By box i get no headers at all. So i assumed i can write some string that mimics that behavior just for single tracks.

$if2(%album%,)

t just doesnt work when ANYTHING is written in the group by box.

here you go....

Have you actually tested that?

I think that is because you have things separated into different playlists. Having no header for singles does not appear to depend on wether the grouping is blank as chaosblade speculated, but wether or not there are any other groups displayed. I played around a little and as soon as an album group was added to the list, the header for singles appeared.

If you actually read the thread, You would notice we DID tag our files to allow foobar to differentiate.
