I've just started looking into serious customisation for foobar2000. I'd like the player to feel a lot like Amarok 1.4.
Anyway, the feature I'm currently working on is ratings. I want to be able to rate tracks from 0.5 to 5 stars (or no rating) in increments of 0.5. I'm using foo_customdb to store the ratings but I'm still trying to work out a nice way to display them. I know it's possible to show star characters in NG Playlist but - apart from the fact they don't look too good - they don't work very well if half star ratings are allowed. It would be cool if I could use images for the rating display. So getting to my actual question: How can I display custom images in a column in a playlist (preferably NG Playlist)? |

The only way I think you could do it would be to create your own 'font' where you assign images to characters (of course they would be monochrome only - no multicolour) and then set that as the font for ngplaylist and have those characters displayed. as far as I know you cannot display custom images

Well thanks for the info. Is there a place to put feature requests such as this? |
