I don't really know so the only advice I can give you to find out which component is problematic is to remove less necessary components one by one until foobar runs ok.

Hi, is there anyone who can show me how to make an
imagebutton work with foo_run in panel stack splitter?

I couldn't find it on the forums, and the ones i found didn't do anything,
allthough they work from the context menu.

EDIT:

After searching a while longer, i found out that foo_run probably won't run as it should in PSS.
But, if somebody has a way to bypass it, without using track_info_mod...

Hello!

If I launch foobar, I wanted to run an external application through(?) the plugin.
I tried

Label: CD ART
Path: "C:\Program Files '('x86')'\foobar2000\CDArt Display\CAD.exe"

But nothing happens when I start foobar :/

Anyone can help?

Regards,
jeriko

it doesn't work that way, you have to iether set a shortcut key or start the process through the context menu.

hi, just a question, how do I call multiple selections of files or better artists.
at example how must look the googlesearch query script in foo_run, if I select two different artists and I will search for both, do you know what I mean?
I need to generate a string like that artist=artist1&artist=artist2
thanks for any hint
best m.

I'm opening Mp3tag through foobar with two separate commands: one for a whole directory (a full album), and another for a single file.

In mp3tag I have two actions (one for albums another for singles) set up that I do for each of these to embed the album art into the file.

I was wondering if anybody knows if there is a way to automate those actions using foo_run.

I am trying to run foo_run from an external program. I use this:
"C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" "/playing_command:Run service/Search Cover"
or
"C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" "/playing_command:Run service:Search Cover"
or
"C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" "/command:Run Service/Search Cover"
and so on...

I know it works ok, run service is in my contextmenu, and whenever I play a file and click it, it starts AlbumArtDownloader and finds the correct covers.

I also know for sure the external command is passed to foobar, as "C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" "/playing_command:Lyrics Grabber/Lyrics Plugin" works fine!

What parameter do I need?

interesting question... i tried it myself for a while, no idea why it doesn't work.

i have the feeling that not all third-party plugin- commands are completly intergrated into foobars command system.
This seems to be the case with foo_run (hotkeys don't work either)

Commands which generate submenus dynamically (e.g. converter presets or the run services above) are generally enumerated only when the whole menu is being constructed. And I think that currently happens only when it's activated by user.

But you might like foosion's Run Command component, it works with it.

ETA: Not a solution for hotkeys, I know.
Full-quoting makes you scroll past the same junk over and over.

Thank you! This works like a treat!

"C:\Program Files\foobar2000\foobar2000.exe" "/runcmd-playing=Run service/Search Cover"

this is gonna be so much fun in my sidebar.

Thank you, Yirkha for the explanation.

I was in despair, because with /command: rating buttons in the quicklaunch bar weren't working but with runcmd they were very good.

I´ve made a button (in track info mode) to open shoutcast by using a foo_run command. This works well, but only as long as a track is playing, but not after stop.

What do I have to do to make it always work?

P.S. as a command in the button I used 'Shoutcast' (not something like "Run service/Shoutcast", because that didn´t work at all...)

I'm having problem with unicode characters. When I want to search with webbrowser for a given artist/song i always get search for string with question marks instead of real characters. I've tried setting different browsers as default and situation persist (Opera, IE, Fx). Would it be possible to fix it somehow or am I missing something in configuration? (for googling I use string: "http://www.google.com/search?q=$replace(%artist%, ,+)&ie=utf-8" )

I'd like to make a feature request: could the number of simultaneous runs be conditioned by the actual string produced to run the external program? I'll try to explain with an example:
Let's say have two tracks from the same artist, both of them are selected, and I would like to open artist's Wikipedia page, number of simultaneous runs is set to 20. To avoid the browser from opening two tabs with the same URL, at the moment I'll have to set number of simultaneous runs to 1 or select only one track, the latter seems the logical one, and it doesn't require too much effort.
But there are other situations, for example I have 10 albums with 12 tracks each and I'd like to search and download the 10 covers with Album Art Downloader. If I select all 120 tracks and run the command, Album Art Downloader receives the first 20 (the number of simultaneous runs) of 120 strings, which are 10 groups of 12 identical strings, resulting in a waste of resources. In order to avoid this I'll have to select one track per album or run the command for one track per album.
It would be useful if foo_run checks the strings produced and removes the redundant ones.

feature request in addition to simultaneous runs:
1. ignore duplicates (ignore execution if running string similar to previous)
2. choose from parallel & serial execution (execute commands consecutively, one after another)

I agree with panda.meloman. It would be nice to, for example, run bat scripts with multiple inputs. For instance, I have this:
Code: [Select]
a > "E:\FPresults.txt"

FOR %%A IN (%*) DO (
    echo %%A >> "E:\FPresults.txt"
    lastfmfpclient %%A >> "E:\FPresults.txt"
    echo.>> "E:\FPresults.txt"
    echo.>> "E:\FPresults.txt"

)
"E:\FPresults.txt"

One of the things I have used foo_run for in the past is searching pitchfork for record reviews, but since they have changed the site it has stopped working. Does anybody know which query to use now?

I was using this:


http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/search/recor...uery?query'['artist']'=$replace(%artist%, ,+)'&query[title]=&query[record_label]=&query[author]=&query[keywords]=&query[min_score]=&query[max_score]=&x=0&y=0'

EDIT: Was just searching around and looked at the firefox pitchfork search plugin. This seems to work:
http://www.pitchfork.com/search/?query=�...eplace(%artist% %album%, ,+)'

Feature Request:

Ability to enable sub-categories in the context menu under "Run service."
Example:

>Context Menu
-->>Run service
----->>Google
--------->>Artist
--------->>Artist + Album
----->>AllMusic
--------->>Artist
--------->>Album

This could be a very useful feature for people with lots of scripts

EDIT:  Even better would be the ability to add certain "services" to other parts of the context menu.  So I guess that would involve getting foobar to treat each "service" as a separate menu item.  I think that would also be useful for binding hotkeys.  I'm also in favor of the other feature requests made since the last release
