Customizing Foobar

All you need is columns ui and some simple coding found in the help page I believe for that particular foobar.

well know after a long,confused day, i now got the playlist down. but know i am stumped on how people get that little remote that shows the position bar and the buttons.

Link

so how do i get that little controller and the bottom of the playlist?

thanks

I do believe they are using Litestep for that..

oh ok. thank you so much Pyro for the help

You're welcome... wait, there are other ways to make a remote for Foobar. Run foobar with /help at the end and you get commands for playing foobar.

You could make shortcuts, and then put them in quicklaunch and stuff.

ill work on it. thanks

abyssal: for the GSM foobar you'll have to use foo_looks and collumns_ui (foo_looks doesnt run with foobar 0.9x tho)

the foobar on the first shot is even just the default_ui I think ...you'll have a similar look right after installing it, just change the colors and the placement of the visualisation toolbar et voila!

yeah man. its wasnt GSM foobar specifically i was talking about. i was asking about how to get a remote like that for foobar but Pyro cleared everything up. And i think i got it know.I definitely like foobar better than winamp now. it was a great switch.but thanks for the help.all i did was install columns ui and reshacked the icon out as well as made some buttons. whew

and what does foo_looks do?

foo_looks is a skinnable plugin for Foobar (0.8.3), which controls it, much like the top part of a Winamp skin, where the regular Foobar (playlist) is more like Winamp's bottom part.

anybody got a older version of foobar they could send me?[0.8.3] i would love to try foo_looks. patsdomain@gmail.com

yeah patrick.. ill send it your way.

check the mail.

for anyone else, i found a link also:

hey thanks bro. didn't expect such a quick response.awesome. thanks Ben. cool link too.

Nice link. Sometimes you need the older version of apps.

About the link in the first post, how do I get the visualization on the bottom?

Currently I can't remember with FB 0.8.3. I really want that bar spectrum! If anyone has a link or has the plugin to do that in old FB I might kill or it.

lol.... old always seems to be better in everything!

yeah classic is good.

Stigf :

go to preferences - select columns ui in the explorer tree - then click on the Layout tab. This is where you add toolbars,buttons,panels, and the spectrum analyser. Look at the splitter type you have, for having the spectrum at the bottom you need it to be a vertical splitter. then from there, right-click on the vertical splitter on the layout order and go to insert panel. Then go to visualizations and select the spectrum analyser. Then you should see it at the bottom and then apply.

does this help? if you still have trouble just message me.

Thanks, it worked :)

someone knows what should i do to hide the kpbs, mp3 etc. in the bottom? (the status bar in the bottom)...

Get columns ui and choose hide status bar. Or go to title formatting and delete the information in the status bar even.

Try visiting Neowin's customizing foobar section, or hydrogenaudio forums.

thank you Pyro_ always helpful:]

well, could someone explain it in german... maybe^^
'cause i want to costumize foobar (like albumarts and other styles for foobar) but i dunno how :(
