foo_prettypop Options

[FrozenSpoon]

Updated December 5, 2009 to 1.2.5.

Pretty Popup is a foobar2000 component to display a moderately sized “popup” of song information when a new song plays. By default, the popup fades in and fades out similar to Outlook 2003 (my inspiration). It is quite customizable through fade-in/out times, album art filenames, font sizes and colors, position, and more. Picture of configuration.

Examples from 1.2.2:


You can get it here. Note that it requires the .NET 2.0 to be installed.

Features:
Assign different commands for different mouse buttons for when you click on the popup (including a context menu).
All four lines can be configured through TAGZ expressions.
Full Unicode support.
Dynamic titles from streams, etc cause a popup.
A couple of configurable keyboard shortcuts to cause a popup.
Bicubic aspect preserving resizing of album art so it doesn't look bad.
When popup is on left half of the screen, popup grows to the right instead (it's multimonitor aware too).
Shows album art using a list of images or TAGZ expressions.
Configurable fonts and colors for text.
Configurable background color for popup, as well as option for hiding the titlebar.
Configurable fade-in, stay, and fade-out times.
Automatic sizing, growing to the text (up to maximum size set by user).

I welcome any comments, both good and bad. Thanks!

hmmm, I've been using it for all of five seconds, but I'm very impressed. One feature I would definitely like to see is the ability to customize the displays for "title", "artist", etc. Specifically, I'm thinking about being able to specify the display using TAGZ, but that is rather a feature for intermediate users. As it is, though, it's great for doing just what it should. (And it handles missing "album" tags pretty cleanly)

edit: after about twenty minutes of using it, I have one bug and one more feature request

feature request: I'd love to be able to assign a keyboard shortcut to force the popup to display. My idea is that I'd be able to hit a keyboard shortcut while I was, say, typing up an e-mail, and I could check the info on the song that's currently playing, without having to hover my mouse over the system tray icon.

bug: Doesn't seem like the plugin is friendly with Unicode. Titles/artists don't display properly, and if the album art happens to be in a folder with Unicode characters in the path, I get a crash with the following failure.txt:

I think it also dies (without any notice, foobar simply disappears) if you try to play a song without any tags.

[Lyx]

Note that it requires the .NET Framework to be installed.

Eeek! :-(

Otherwise, i would have been very interested in this. foo_osd doesn't support covers, and toaster feels too limiting to me (i prefered the formatting-string approach of foo_osd). But i'm not gonna install .NET just to get this plugin to work. Of course, i'm not complaining because i've got no right to. Just describing my situation.

- Lyx

P.S.: w00t - i am 1337 now ;-) *takes screenshot*

[saratoga]

Might as well install .net if you're interested in trying it. You'll have to do it eventually anyway as .net is gradually replacing win32.

[FrozenSpoon]

Thanks so much for checking it out and providing some feedback.

gfngfgf, Thanks for the heads up. I have no music with Unicode and apparently my test case was bad I have updated the plugin to 1.0.2, it SHOULD fix Unicode problems (I could use some feedback from anyone). It should display Unicode for artist, title, and album text labels. Also, it will handle folders and filenames that are Unicode and not crash. For some reason, it will not handle absolute paths from TAGZ expressions when there are Unicode characters. I'm looking into it, but wanted to get this fix out. It's a little nasty because .NET uses UTF16 and foobar2000 uses UTF8, so I have to be careful. Your other suggestions are great, and if I get some time later on, I'll consider them!

kalmark, That's odd, can you give me a little more information on the format and such? When no tag information is found, the filename should be displayed instead. It certainly works okay on my 3 test machines. However, they are just FLAC files stripped of tag information. Perhaps there are more serious cases causing problems. I'll see what I can figure out.

[ZhuGeLiang]

I get a crash when I open foobar.

UNICODE

[FrozenSpoon]

I'm looking into this. I don't understand it because I have installed it on clean installs of XP and 2K and have not had problems. Only tested on .NET 1.1 SP1 though.

I'm thinking it might be something funky in font support. Is it actually working for anyone? I've tried it on 4 machines now, no issue.

[waileongyeo]

Great work! It works for me without any problem. Thanks.

However, I have some suggestions here after use:

1. Can we have the popup window titile bar removed? Just provide no useful information but take place. It's unecessary for me.
2. Just a minor issue here: If the total fade out time is 2 sec, it won't recount if I move my mouse to make focus on the popup. The fade out just continue counting. This means if I move away and move over my cursor onto the popop windows repeatly in 0.5 sec time each, slowly I can't keep the popup window anymore, it disappears.

Another interesting thing is foo_prettypop does remember it's position after you allocate it.

Thanks.

[Edit] Why (sometimes, not always) the popup does not disappear by itself?

hmm, I thought I had made a reply. I just said that version 1.0.2 works fine for me with Unicode files, and the album art displays fine as well. I'm using XP SP2, but I don't know how to check my .NET version.

[FrozenSpoon]

Good to hear it's working for some.

I changed a few things with fonts and there's 1.0.3 on the page now. I changed the way default fonts are selected on first run (that's the only thing I know that could be casuing a crash at this point unless the .NET install is just hosed). Don't bother with it if it's already working for you. If it crashed before, I'd be interested in knowing if this changed anything (I'm not too confident though).

Removing the titlebar will be a fairly simple thing to add. Just hadn't got around to it and wasn't sure anyone would want that. The idea of simply 'pausing' the 'stay' time instead of resetting it was me trying to emulate the Outlook 2003 behavior. Perhaps I could add an option to either 'reset' the time or 'pause' it like it is now.

The "mouse hover" effect is pretty shoddy mainly because .NET Forms really didn't make it easy for me (and there are still some issues, for sure). However, I never have seen the popup get "stuck" on screen. Anything in particular happen or did it just not fade away?

[fabiospark]

I think your prettypop could become a powerful piece of FB when surely stable.

A couple of questions:

- is it possible to make it (behave as) a screen saver, having just that on a blank screen? Of course at user choice.

- is it possible to make it behave as trackinfo but also with the support of _playlist_name/num/tot variables?

- is it possible to disable albumart showing and using the space for infos?


Thanks.

kalmark, That's odd, can you give me a little more information on the format and such? When no tag information is found, the filename should be displayed instead. It certainly works okay on my 3 test machines. However, they are just FLAC files stripped of tag information. Perhaps there are more serious cases causing problems. I'll see what I can figure out.

Maybe this was related to the startup bug or something (as it occured on startup mostly, with untagged APE files). Now it works perfectly, thanks for this plugin

BTW, I'd prefer if the mouse hover effect would be optional...And maybe an option to bring up preferences or something by clicking on the popup...And an option to set the opacity level...That's all for now

[stripe]

works perfectly for me (on win98)

i love it and it's got a lot of potential.
suggestions:
-be able to change the 'preferred' size of the image or the popup itself
-and to be able to specify if you want it to be square by default
-option to leave it up indefinitely (uh, the album art panel plugin doesn't work for me)
-like fabiospark said, it would be great to be able to customize what info we want to show like in foo_trackinfo

great work!

1.0.3 finally works for me.

[alphaex32]

Hmm, this crashes foobar everytime I open it.

I get an error saying "Application has generated an exception that could not be handled. Process id=0xd44 (3396), Thread id=0xcf4 (3316)."

Then, I get an error: "There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk3\DR13."

Finally, foobar crashes and I get a failure log with many references to foo_prettypop in the stack dump analysis.

When I remove prettypop from the components folder, foobar starts up fine.

Any ideas?

[The Link]

It crashes here, too. Perhaps the reason might be that I have the Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 Beta installed? I'm on WinXP SP2.

[ZhuGeLiang]

Yeah mine crashed with version 1.0.2 and I have .NET 2.0 beta and 1.1 SP1

[Klato]

Nice plugin! Works fine over here. Although my taskbar is at the top of the screen, and Pretty Popup appears at the bottom of the screen

Go hokies.

Very nice! Works great for me too, but I can't rename the folder containing the cover while Foobar is running. The AlbumArt plugin for ColumnsUI had the same problem and managed to fix it, although I wouldn't know how.

[Lance Uppercut]

Excellent plug-in. Works Fine for me (WinXP).

I also would like no titlebar.

Thanks

[FrozenSpoon]

I have (finally) confirmed there to be some sort of problem when using XP SP2 and .NET 2.0 beta 1 together. For me, it's a lockup. It may be causing the crashes at startup some are reporting when using .NET 2.0 beta 1.

This may actually be a bug in .NET 2.0 beta, but, there may be a simple workaround. I will not be able to spend time trying this until tomorrow night though.

If there's any .NET developers here, the following line is the curplit:
ManagedClass->StaticManagedClass->PublicMemberPtrOfType = &UnmanagedType;

For reference, this post is what foosion had to say about the above-mentioned problem in foo_uie_albumart. rexy later said that foosion's suggestion was probably correct.
