It came to my attention that you have implemented control of my albumart panel. So, I came to check it out. I'm very flattered, but I think there's a flaw in your implementation: it never unlocks the albumart panel. That is, in albumlist, on SETFOCUS or when selection changes, it locks the albumart panel and sets an image, but on KILLFOCUS, it unlocks the albumart panel and reverts the image. If you never unlock the panel, then it will never go back to displaying new tracks or playlist selections. I noticed that you are using the same function I defined for use with albumlist, so all you have to do is actually just call that with a null value when you loose focus and it will unlock the albumart panel and revert the image.
Hope that helps.

Cool... Thanks for heads up... I was wondering about that because I thought it was funny that it never went back to the currently playing item in my config...

I'll get that fixed in the next released...

Is there anybody who has any problem with unicode support with this component? If so, please report the problems so they can be fixed (and hopefully this component can cease to be in the problematic list)

Thanks

@cwbowron: Awesome job 

I think that what newbies will like most is the new Quick Query feature, really useful.

Go to the Preferences, Appearance, Background color.

For a general overview of the basic functions of the plugin, you can have a look at the [a href="http://foobar.bowron.us/Tutorial.rtf]Tutorial[/url]. For any other info, best place is the forum.

@cwbowron
Maybe a link to the tutorial in the first post may be useful...

The new user tutorial has been updated to 0.3.1 and is now more web friendly.  It now includes information about the browser.

BTW latest version now include much better support for folder editting, including new features of icon selection... You can choose different icons for different folders very easily now...

Queries now have larger input boxes as well.

Chris,

I'm going to bring back and old request: do you have any plans to implement somethign like this? (aka Auto-scan database + refresh PT).

BTW, are icons available in the browser? i don't think so.

I'm glad to see that Chris has implemented this into PT. I was really waiting for this to work in fb2k. Wow, just one click and you get:

1) Scan database
2) Remove dead entries
3) Remove dead entries for static folders
4) Refresh all PT queries.

 

PD: Can't wait to have the option to auto-update on startup implemented.

Get latest version of PT. Put in 'Config>music Directory' the path to your msuic library folder. Then just use this in Main menu:
Playlist Tree>Database>Scan>Prune DB>Prune Tree>Refresh (or assign a shortcut to this).

oh i like this.

luckily i made some ntfs junction points so all of my music can be under one directory.  otherwise i might need multiple directory entries in this config page.  maybe this still wouldnt be a bad idea?

 excellent tool !!! even I had to kick my own ass as I needed several hours to find out, how to get two dynamic trees with lossless and encoded files

  I was already happy with myself ot get the query "%_path% HAS MP3" to work, but my bigger surprize was later than, that I can just enter Q=MP3 or Q=Flac.

Is there any documentation around about TAGZ or foo_playlist_gen format in general ??

You might also be interested in writing a query that displays based on filename extension. For example

Query: $ext(%_path%)
Uncheck the foo_playlist_gen format button

Format: $ext(%_path%)|[%artist%]|[%album%]|[$num(%tracknumber%,2) - ]%title%

There's a html file in the foobar2000 directory called titleformat_help.html that is a good reference for TAGZ.

There is also another file called foo_playlistgen_ex.html in the foobar2000 directory, as a reference for foo_playlist_gen format queries. At least I have it, I think it was included in the installer...

foo_playlistgen_ex.html comes with - incidentally - foo_playlistgen_ex, i.e. it is not contained in the regular foobar2000 installer.
