Same here. Computer freezes when activating foo_browser.

Even with the older versions I had a loading time of a half a minute or so (for populating).

Maybe we could have a "Browser - selection" and a "Browser - playing" automatically created playlists. When I'm browsing the result will be in the "selection" one. If there is a track playing from the "selection" playlist, that playlist will become the "playing" one and from then on the browser should create another "selection" playlist without disturbing the "playing" one.


A good idea!

Not sure how to deal if I stop playing tracks though...


Hmmm? I think to avoid copying content from one playlist to another and to handle this problem just by renaming of playlist a solution could be to delete that playing playlist on stop.

Yes, something like this : a Browser list to browse, and another one to play. Elements from the browsers are automatically sent to the second playlist by double clicking...


I guess you come from Winamp and miss the playlist editor where tracks are sended to from media library! What you need would be something like "user defined playlist" known from playlist tree 1.7.xx.  Perhaps Chris will see a usage for that and could implement it into Browser or Playlist Tree or in a seperate plugin.

Yes, you are right, I come from Winamp about 4 years ago ! And I always found great this way to manage with the media library . I went to foobar because you can make it just like you need it (for tags especially).
And you are right too, the solution is 98 % here when I see what foo_browser can do . And the possibility to browse your playlist during playing is really worth it !

The aim of my posting was to clarify that you and fabiospark are talking about two different features. I would be happy to see both of them but fabisparks idea is a little bit more important for me.

Let us see what the future will bring!

foobar v0.9.2 Beta 4 w/ Standard Components

All I added was the latest versions of foo_ui_columns, foo_uie_trackinfo, and foo_browser...

This was a clean install, and when trying to configure the browsers after adding them to my layout, foobar2000 completely hangs and all settings are lost.

Do you have the problem if you use foobar 0.9.1?

What about if you don't use the trackinfo panel?

Hi Chris,

I believe my hangs were with both with foobar2000 0.9.2Beta3 & 4. My configuration has the latest Columns_UI, Albumart 176a, Trackinfo 0.8, albumlist panel 0.2.1 beta4, ui_explorer 1.04.6a, playlist dropdown 0.5.7, along with standard toolbar stuff.

Browser 1.1.7 is working perfectly with all of these plugins. Yesterday, I tried Browser 1.1.8 here at work, and I had to restart the computer because my all my programs that have dropdown menus were messed up (either words but no color or color and no wording.) It seemed as if everything had to be redrawn. Very strange behavior.

I hope this info helps you out.


Hi Again Chris,

Ok, I can confirm that Browser 1.1.8 works perfectly with foo_uie_trackinfo 0.8 removed. So, who needs to fix what?

I'm gonna call it a track info problem.  I have foo_browser running with track info panel v. 0.7 and that seems to running fine.

This is my track info panel setup... very sparse:

Do you have problems if you use track info without browser, but with other panels?

Well, I thought everything was OK, but as soon I closed foobar, then tried to restart, foobar crashes. Upon removing Browser 1.1.8 it starts right up with no problem.

Hello,

From the test I've done it doesn't seems related to the presence of Trac info but from the use of more than one panel of foo_browser at the same time.

Foobar2000 v0.9.1
Columns UI 0.1.3 beta 1v5
AlbumArt panel 0.176a (also freese without it)
Track info panel 0.8 (also freese without it)
AudioCDWriter 2.0
Special info box 2.0.0
Monkey's Audio decoder 2.0
Playback statistics 1.0

Windows XP SP2
Kerio 4.1.3
AVG

Hope this can help.

Hi,

here is my bug report:

Using foobar 0.9.1 on Win2kSP4 with these components:
http://www.iaido-frankfurt.de/ifkxdrg/foobar-components.gif
and these browser settings:
http://www.iaido-frankfurt.de/ifkxdrg/foo_...er-settings.gif

The problems began immediately after updating to foo_browser 1.1.8, so I'm afraid it may be a foo_browser issue. The problems appear randomly and there are no certain steps to reproduce them, but they are invariably triggered by a click on a browser panel.

The player does not crash or hang here, but the appearance is severely distorted. A Screenshot:
http://www.iaido-frankfurt.de/ifkxdrg/foobar-borked.gif

The music plays further, the buttons "play", "pause", "stop", etc. are working. The Ablum List panel is working, the spectrum analyser is working, but a second, frozen copy of the analyser appears in the upper left corner (cf. screenshot).

The browser pannels themselves appear to be working - when you click on them they change their contents -, but they are painted mostly white-on-white.

The Track Info panel and the Playlists appear to be frozen - they display either trash or the background of some other window, but this is appearance only. When you double-click on the supposedly frozen playlist, the track starts playing, which is supposed to be there.

All in all, it looks like some kind of window re-paint problem in my case.

The same happens to me if I try to resize the columns ui playlist by dragging.

Memory leak

Steps to reproduce (1):
1. Open a fresh fb2k instance.
2. In the Genre panel klick  some_genre -> [All] -> some_genre -> [All] -> some_genre -> [All] ... etc.
3. Observe the ever increasing memory usage every time you select [All].

Steps to reproduce (2):
1. Open a fresh fb2k instance.
2. Select repeatedly "Library" -> "Reset Browsers".
3. Observe the ever increasing memory usage every time you klick "Reset Browsers".

It seems to me, that the memory leak is here again. The above steps are valid (again).

I am very pleased with the latest version, except for one bug, which is that the sort order is ignored.
My sort string for ARTIST is
Code: [Select]
$if($stricmp($left(%artist%,4),The ),$right(%artist%,$sub($len(%artist%),4)),%artist%)
but it sorts it as if it was *

Edit: Small feature request, it would be very very nice to be able to assign an action to single click as well as double click.
PS. I have the 'Brower Playlist' set to 'Everything', which is a read-only autoplaylist, which stops Browser from modifying it, So for me single click does nothing except create a slight pause. Double click is set to Edit/Highlight in Playlist.

The crashing happens here when I add three new browser panels to my layout at once, and then it crashes when I do the Shift+Right Click.

I did a test to see if I added and configured a browser panel one by one, and that worked without crashing.

Here's a summary fo the layout that I was using:

Code: [Select]
Horizontal Splitter
|------>Vertical Spliter
           |------>Playlist Siwtcher
|------>Vertical Splitter
           |------>Horizontal Splitter
                      |------>Browser Panel
                      |------>Browser Panel
                      |------>Browser Panel
           |------>Columns Playlist


Hopefully that is of some help...

Thanks for the info...

if you uncheck "Use custom colors" does that help anything?

Hi Chris,

You are absolutely correct, it is the "Custom Selection Colors". Unchecked, everything is working perfectly. I use 6 panels and all is working smoothly. Even closing & restarting foobar many times, everything runs as it should. No excess CPU usage nor re-drawing issues. So, it looks like the main culprit has been isolated.

Thanks you very much for debugging so quickly.
Everything seems to work for me.
