3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: Georgia: A dynamically generated fb2k theme

Last post by Dr. Roboculous - 2020-05-23 01:42:33

hey MordredKLB, i love the theme but, is there any way to get it to just use only the embedded album art i already have in the files? I already set foobar2000 to that option [Prefer Embedded] in the foobar preferences/advanced menu but the theme still shows only the art from the containing folder of the file i'm listening to. I swear i remember reading on the internet that something somewhere in Georgia had to be changed to $meta. or something. But for the life of me i can't find it again anywhere! Anyway, I just want to use the embedded album art in my files, is there a way to do that?
Thanks!

[P.S.: i'll post this in both the Hydrogenaudio forum and the foobar reddit page.]

The sources scripts database isn't updating. I can see the .boo files in the Scripts folder in AAD but the newer sources don't show up in the actual program. Any help?
Sorry, I don't understand the question. Are you getting an error message at startup, when it tries to compile the scripts? Is it a specific script that can't be loaded? Or you've added a script .boo file and AAD isn't trying to compile it at startup at all?

It's the Allmusic.boo and Yandex.boo . When i start up Album Art Downloader there is a link at the bottom of the right-side panel that "new scripts downloaded". These are the two mentioned: allmusic.boo and yandex.boo. I click OK & restart the app and in my directory [C:\Program Files\AlbumArtDownloader\Scripts] both the .boo files are there but, they are not there in the side panel of the AAD app itself and i again have a message at the very bottom of the right-side panel that says New Scripts Downloaded... There is no error message. I hope this post makes more sense to you. I don't know the difference between "compiling" and "loading" them but, i just know that the two files are in the directory i mentioned above but not in the side panel of the app itself where you have the option to choose the Sources AAD uses and change the settings of them. Yandex and Allmusic are just not in that panel at all. And i always have that link to click on and it always has a pop-up window that shows the 2 .boo files it downloaded and when i click Restart they are still not in the Sources right-side panel.
Thanks. Love the app. I had been looking for something exactly like this for years now!

It's not so much a timing issue, as that the instance your run command starts decides to remain open as the persistent instance, rather than launching another instance.

Maybe it's waiting for the FreeCommander.exe process to terminate.

Ah, I never thought of closing FreeCommander as I thought it didn't make sense after all I'm sending the command to open it.

The solution was to:
1. Close FC
2. Reopen FC
3. Run the command again.

It appears FC needs to be already open otherwise there's some timing issues or something.

Is there any way to avoid this?

This may be a bug.

I'm having an issue where the window doesn't close after running it. Escape or clicking X or the Abort does not have an affect.

The only way to close it is to close FB.

The version of FB is the latest. v1.5

I'm trying to open a new tab in FreeCommander.

See here:

Here are my settings
Label: Open Directories in FreeCommander
Path: "W:\Apps '('Portable')'\FreeCommanderXE\FreeCommander.exe" /T /L="$replace(%_path%,%_filename_ext%,)"

But it will overwrite Album, Album Artist, Song, Date (and maybe genre)
Thanks for the info!
Unfortunately each of the above is a no-go...

Question for @MordredKLB I'd guess:
Is this - making the fetched MusicBrainz (& potentially AcoutsticBrainz) data map-able to custom ID3 & Vorbis fields/tags - planned already by chance or potentially an option for the long run

I have no plans to add AcousticBrainz support. That's a completely separate backend/API and seems out of scope to this component.

Can I ask what the reason is you want to adjust those property names? It definitely adds some complexity to the component, but I'm struggling to see why you're fine getting MUSICBRAINZ_ALBUMID, but you just want it stored in CUSTOM_ALBUMID.

I guess I can do some refinements to the tag reading, such as doing a on-file play callback and then enabling the dsp, then its simply a case of changing the dsp or turning off as needed.

I assume the lack of response is a reason the fixes for DX filters are working?
