Copy and paste the desired songticker into Text Display (http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_textdisplay) or any other field that supports title formatting and has access to the playing track's information.
In all of the songtickers
- Use a monospaced font for best results. (e.g. Lucida Console or Courier New)
- Set the "text" variable to whatever string you want to display. {default: [%artist% - ]%title%}
- Set the "dispLen" variable to the maximum number of characters your display field can fit (more or less if you prefer). {default: 26}
songticker classic 1.0
- Text scrolls continuously to the left, looping forever.
- The "textAndPad" variable sets the characters that separate one loop iteration from the next. Feel free to change them. {default: " *** "}
- The "scrollSpeed" variable changes the scrolling rate. {default: 1}
songticker modern 1.0
- Text bounces back and forth between the beginning and end of the string.
- Text pauses at the beginning and end of the string before reversing scroll direction.
songticker modern-noPause 1.0
- Text bounces back and forth between the beginning and end of the string.
- Text does not pause at the beginning or end of the string.
