Foo_osd

Hello !

I'm using foobar since 0.7 and I like it ! Using Foo_osd too, but I miss some function... With the last port for Foobar 0.9, I don't know how to display OSD with a keyboard shortcut. Is there any way ?

Thanks !

No, i noticed that too, i think he got rid of that feature. :/

As an alternative (sort of, depending on how you use it) you can set the OSD to display when you pause the track. That's what i did. Better than nothing.

I miss it too. You can use built-in fb2k tray notification instead or PrettyPopup component.

Yeah, that's right. But I prefer OSD. And I dismissed the tray icon, because of OSD use... so, if there is any maioration possibility of this great plugin it would be nice.

I also would like to use shortcuts for the foo_osd component! In my previous (8.3)setup it was the only way I used it.

btw, can someone tell me the difference between the 'normal' and the gdi+ version?
Please don't mind my bad English.

it uses microsofts gdi+ graphics library to draw to screen.. no idea what that means for the end user..

I've seen no difference, except the GDI+ version need much more resource. Visually, it is quite the same.

By the way, here is my OSD code :
Code: [Select]
$if(%_ispaused%,ffffff|000000'[Pause] ')000000|00FFFF[%artist%]$char(10)
$if(%album%,00ffff|000000%album%) $if(%tracknumber%,#[%disc%/]$num(%tracknumber%,2)) $if(%album% && %tracknumber%,$char(10))
$if(%title%,000000|00FFFF%title%,%_filename%)$char(10)
$if(%_time_total%!=0,%_time_total% $progress(%_time_elapsed_seconds%, %_time_total_seconds%, 20,$char(9835),$char(8226)) $muldiv(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,100,%_length_seconds%)'%'$char(10),%_length%$char(10))
[cfa923|4b2b10Next: %_next%]

The fact is that the progressbar doesn't progress at all. Do you see the same thing ? It is like the %_time_total% couldn't be read at the true beginning of the track...

excuse my ignorancce but what is foo_osd ?
is it like pretty pop and toaster?

update

just tested it out, i like this better then pretty popup, its very simple and displays exactly what i want.

Foo_osd

Reply #18
Kind of - but much simpler. It displays a custom string on top of all windows. It stays there for a amount of time and then disappears again (no albumart or such stuff..)

Foo_osd

It is very simple, and so doesn't need any resource.




I miss an hotkey option...

This feature has been requested several times and the developer will implement it when he feels like it.

No pointless thread bumping please.

Should I use the 'display forever' setting, is there a way to hide the OSD (maybe with an escape or a mouse movement)?

A few feature requests:

- vertical and/or horizontal scrolling (and bouncing) according to available space
- ability to show graphics if there is a particular value into a tag
- auto showing after some time the keyboard and mouse are not used (screeensaver behaviour)
- ability to set a fixed dimension (in pixels) of the background

Thanks.

Another way to do this would be to wait a port of foo_qconfig.
It allows you to add commands in menu. When a command is in a menu, you can assign a shortcut to it. At least, that worked like this in 0.8.3... and this was pretty useful.

Beside the shortcut keys, it seems that %_next% doesn't work either or am I miss something?

In "Default" playback order, it should work, but it will not work with the shuffle modes. At least it behaved like this in the 0.8 version.
