Also gix put NG Playlist in Playlist tabs.


Nice, that solved it. But it looks a bit weird to me, since I'm used to a small gray line between the tabs and the playlist.

Can moving of items in the Layout tree be improved?
I.e. drag&drop support, keyboard shortcuts or buttons to move the items?

+1 for drag&drop... current way is a tad painful

Also an undo option would be useful... yesterday I did Change Base when I meant to do Insert Panel... on my top most splitter  that was awkward.

+1 for undo! i hate it when i'm mucking about with a complicated config and i make a mistake.

it seems that hitting Cancel would really cancel, but in fact it saves the changes. Cancel should revert to how things were when the dialog box was opened up.

regarding "Split Values..."

i am experimenting with multiple value tags. i set %mood% on one album to "Uncompromising; Fiery; Literate; Cerebral; Brooding"

i chose "Split Values..."

yet in my %mood% filter, i see just one entry - "Uncompromising, Fiery, Literate, Cerebral, Brooding"

naturally, i want this to show up as 5 separate entries.

what have i done wrong?

Hi,
I use NG Playlist with Artwork in Groups and have a problem with embedded artwork.
When i select an external No Cover Image, embedded artwork will be overwritten.
Stub image path entries do not solve the problem.
version 0.3.8.2
Thx for help!

Should be sorted now in 0.3.8.2.

Seems that new behavior fails to load artwork on manual "reload info from file": i.e. tracks without cover are loaded in playlist, then cover is supplied (discogs, AAD, manually...) - now "reload info" doesn't change anything, but adding the tracks again

Foobar beta6 crashes with CUI 0.3.8.2 when moving toolbar elements. 0.3.8.0 works. (Win XP SP3)

Did you submit it online? I don't see anything relevant, submit it if you didn't, or if you did post the crash log here so I can match them up.

Here's what the troubleshooter says:

foobar2000 troubleshooter
The following components found on your system are known to be problematic and should be either uninstalled or updated to their latest versions:

foo_input_monkey.dll : Monkey's Audio Decoder 2.1.3
Reason: Rare random crash fixed in 2.1.4; please update.
Download the latest version...

foo_uie_graphical_browser.dll : Graphical Browser rev015
Reason: Repeated crash reports.

foo_uie_vis_peakmeter_spectrum.dll : Peakmeter Spectrum Visualisation 0.2.0.0 beta
Reason: Repeated crash reports.

foo_playlist_tree_mod.dll : Playlist Tree Mod Panel 3.0.6.2 NoScheme [Mar 1 2009 - 21:27:43]
Reason: Repeated crash reports.

foo_uie_albumart.dll : Album Art Panel
Reason: Crashware, no longer under development.

foo_uie_lyrics2.dll : Lyric Show Panel 2 0.4.5
Reason: Repeated crash reports.


All these components worked fine with older foobar and cui versions.
With cui 0.3.8.2 foobar freezes and i have to kill the process.


What and how can I submit online? I don't see any other report or log...

Edit:
I did a new portable normal install of foobar beta6, added only cui 0.3.8.2 component, and still foobar freezes when i try to drag a toolbar element.

While it has nothing to do with CUI, you should add MOOD in multivalue fields (advanced preferences > display > properties dialog)


i added it to multivalue, but it's still showing up in my Filter as a single long string. am i wrong in thinking that it should list each entry separately?

~edit~

ok i think the problem is with Filters. i tried it with the Album List panel, and %<style>% correctly broke the multivalue tag into separate entries.

but entering %<style>% into a Filter just returns ?
and entering %style% returns all values in a single entry

does anyone know a way to sort this out?

Columns UI

Set the field to Style. The filter fields either take title formatting, which does not split multiple-entried fields, or named fields, which does split entries.

This is mentioned when you press Help in the Fields section of the Filter configuration, by the way.

well that works. the problem is i wanted to format it "genre - style", which does not work with named fields.

hrmm.

If you kill foobar2000 (ctrl+shift+esc...) rather than close it normally, the new settings will not be saved...

filter panel suggestion: gaining space by removing redundant titles

idem with foobar 9.6.9

It's a hang rather than a crash, so you can't.

I did a new portable normal install of foobar beta6, added only cui 0.3.8.2 component, and still foobar freezes when i try to drag a toolbar element.
OK, I reproduced under XP SP3. Looking into it, thanks...

Ok I'm kinda lost on how to do this since i'm not the expert here.

I'm trying to make a filter in default columns filter options to filter the first folders I use and that the other filters respond to that. I generally have a few main folders from which I go deeper and I would like to use that as my starting point in foobar too.

Artists
-artist a
--cd a
---tracks
-artist b
Singles
-artist a
Soundtrack
-movie name
various Artists
-cd name

to give a small idea. I want to use Artists, Singles, Soundtrack, Various Artists as the starting point of the filter.

anyways is there a way to do that? I tried a simple $directory(%path%,3) but the dir structure isn't the same level all the way which makes that option a no go for me

Bump since I still haven't figured it out.

Where are you setting this "No Cover Image" then?

OK, I've put up 0.3.8.3 which should fix that.
