foo_uie_trackinfo, now-playing/selected-item panel Options

[mazy]

great plugin, Phi! i've requested something like this as ui extension before .

requests though:
- it could be nice to show album art in the background
- special strings to change fonts (at least for bold / italics / underline variants, changing size would be great too). one way could be letting user to configure few fonts in the preferences (like font #1, #2, #3) and then switch between them using special string.

For those requesting album art, rexy as just released a panel album art, right now it only display folder.jpg in the folder where the file is, but it's a good start

Don't you think we would benefit from some competition?

IMHO it would make sense to combine albumart with track info. Then you could have it as one single tab in foo_uie_tabs.

Thanks.

Although it seems like a popular request, I don't have any plans to add album art support at the moment.

I had the second idea in mind when I was designing the plugin, and it wouldn't be too hard to support. Won't happen for a while though. As well as fonts, it might be possible to support embedded images (and incidentally, album art), but I'm not sure how well that would work.

You need to change the format of the play_date and play_time tags in the play counter preferences to match how you want them to look. Although, that won't help you fix the play count tags that have already been added to files. You'll have to use some masstagger script for that.

@Phi:
Thanks for this plugin (and, obviously, for the others!)

@Messer:

$select($add(1,$mod(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,10)), o $char(10)<!>

$char(10) ! $char(10)< >$char(10)$char(10),<o/

$char(10), o> $char(10)/!  $char(10)/ > $char(10)
)

(hint: fixed width font recommended)

I have put this at top of my string.
It remember the display of my AVC Sout Player...
(btw: you have forgotten a "$char(10)" at the end....)

You can fix your displayed time by using $substr(a,b,c)

For your time-display it has to be:
$substr(%play_time%,0,2):$substr(%play_time%,3,4).$substr(%play_date%,5,6)

Hope i could help

[Skates]

Adding covert art support would be awesome, especially if it read it from the tag in the MP3!

Very useful plugin, thanks. I am loving these foo_uie plugins.

And thanks for your string free.

Can you tell me where you got those playback buttons? I'd love to have those for my foobar2000 configuration.

Seconding that, plus the name of that XP theme

Thanks man. Those buttons rock. Oddly, my config is already similar to the one you posted.

Did you right click and say save as? Try just clicking on the link, as it takes you to another webpage where you can click to download (guess its angry about the referrer), and it worked for me.

[metal_termite]

there is a plugin like this for winamp, however all the customization is done in html, and the tagz are input as variables. it would also be cool if this was done like that. it would be VERY customizable.

it would be sweet if this plugin could incorporate rexy's album art plugin, so in essence you'd be able to have a tag to call up the album art and indicate what dimensions you want it to have.

nice stuff nonetheless.

p.s. when i display the %comment% tag it outputs as one long line without any word wrap.

Updated.

Changes:

• window should now be flicker-free
• word-wrap
• mouse-wheel scrolling
• option to disable per-second update

Sounds good, but a lot of work.

Use $meta(tagname) for multiline tags. i.e., $meta(comment). And you may need to use $replace($meta(comment),$char(13),) to get rid of any carriage returns. Multiline tags don't look very good though, since alignment and color is reset after every line (i.e., the first line will be formatted but the others will use the default).

I'm using Firefox. The original link took me to a page and from there I DLed the ZIP. I'll try again - maybe it got corrupted in the download or something.

edit: got 'em that time. Thanks,

Great plugin !

Why doesnt scrolling work here?

[anza]

Scrolling works here almost perfectly. The only problem is that the screen (or the trackinfo panel area) gets cluttered when you scroll too much...

[badrad]

New version is working great.

[juglesh]

Why doesnt scrolling work here?

i thought not as well, but you gotta scroll with yer mouse wheel, there is no scroll bar. seems like there should be...

if you use your scroll alot, like reading a very long comment, then click on a track with less info, the panel will remain scrolled up, you will have to scroll back down to see the second track info. although, you will only have to scroll down one click. hmm, you just have to move your scroll wheel one click either direction and the second track will be scrolled up to the top. uhh, unless the second track has a long comment also... anyway, the thing is not resetting itself on track changes

another cool pluggin, thanks!

edit: could it made so that i could select and copy the info in the panel?

Great plugin so far... waiting for $tab() / $char(9) support. Really looking forward for new releases.
