Home stereo display, For trackinfo mod panel Options

[RadioactiveMan]

this looks really nice.
but unfortunately i have a little problem with it.



As you can see the upper line with stereo information und such is invisible.

This is my definition part:

CODE

$puts(removable,ez)
$puts(glass_intensity,10)
$puts(back,$rgb(175,175,175))
$puts(active,$rgb(128,0,0))
$puts(decreaserange,15)
$puts(YY_MM_DD,)

I am using the background color $rgb(129,136,147)
All required plugins are installed (at leat i think so).
The fonts are also installed.
I have just copied the code from version 1.2.
There is also the part "//Stereo Encoding Tagtype///" inside the code.

Just copy pasted the code from the post and put your settings:

As you can see everything is kicking.Try to re-paste the code,also check in the charmap.exe if the fonts
such as "franklin gothic medium" and "lucida sans unicode" are installed on your pc.If you are running
win 2k see Squellers post about installing the fonts (i'm not familiar with win 2k).This is really odd...

this is what i call mysterious. i tried to reinstall the fonts. but 2 seconds after i deleted them they were back again (perhaps it was windows file protection) and now everything works. hmpf.

Glad to hear that

[steamfish81]

Awesome !!!!...

I need something to enable/disable what to display on the panel?

At this stage no,you have no choice which features are enabled and which aren't.(Unless you want to mess with
the code a little).Maybe it will be implemented in further versions.

Yes. truly awesome work! I also could never settle on a track info panel until this came along. It's just so cool!

[Russell777]

Hi to all,please make an effort and provide me with your %mood% tag examples for the final version.

[beto]

I'm still having issues. There is some problem with the alignment:



could someone please point me to a possible solution? thanks.

Well,I must tell you i'm shocked by this sight.I don't know but no matter how much i resize the window i can not
destroy the alignment.Try to re-paste the code,i'll check it later.

[beto]

repasted the code and same problem

Just out of curiosity:what version of foobar are you using (i know it's a 0.9x series) but what exactly?
See in the authors topic (of trackinfo mod panel) it says

it needs some later 0.9.x version of foobar

so maybe that's the problem,realy can't think about something else.

[beto]

0.9.3.1 is the foobar version.
Maybe this has anythig to do with my display settings. I'm on 1280x1024 on 19' LCD monitor.
That's not it. Tried different settings and none worked.
my trackinfo mod is 0.5 beta from 17/8/2006.

it needs the C runtime library for vs .net 2005 (msvcr80.dll I think). Do you have this file in your system?

(it must be located at ...windows\system32\) But on the other hand without it
you woudn't be able to use this panel in a first place.I dunno...

[tool++]

Thats awesome. Can we get a filefront link or upload section?

Because rapidshare no worky for NTL users

Just give me a link to the desired storage.

[beto]

the runtime is there. I installed .NET 2.0
man this is really strange...

[Russell777]

2 beto:I'm realy sory,but there's nothing i can think of right now.
2 tool++:I added one more link (see the first post under Version 1.2)

[DeepDose]

Russell777, I think version 1.0 and 111 should still be posted, I'm using ver. 1.1.1 because I like the short look, and the long one doesn't fit into my config, ver. 1.0 I think also looks great, I kept them both, but I feel some people may be missing out not having seen the two prior versions.

[beto]

thanks anyway. I'll try one or two things I have in mind once I figure out how you handle positioning in your code.
Hopefully I'll be able to make it work....

[spex04]

Here's an idea... How about having a artist/title/album section to the right, which scrolls when they're too long..?

Something like:

Artist
Title
Album

..?

[musosticky]

Id quite like the option to change the overall font of the text but still keep it in proportion. I know i could do this manually but the code is a little confusing to me

[MellowB]

Thanks for this great trackinfo panel. I like it a lot and it helped me replacing like 4 other panels up there in my player which were essentially doing the same but in a baaad way. xD
And about the artist/trackinfo stuff requested up there, i already modded mine a bit to show that and a progress bar. Also changed it to show the last-played time with the official playcounter and modified the "hot-ness" rating a bit to not show any more (5 stars that is) because i dont use the un-official playcounter nor do i tag my mp3s with any ratings... so its dis-functional for me.
Looks like this then:



If someone really needs the code for this i might post it but my bet is everyone else could achive what i did there a lot better than me.

I HAD the same prob. And my monitor is on same resolution as yours ...
-But since I fixed the code a little it appears in it full beauty ...!! -THNX Russell !!

CODE

$puts(sizefix,$muldiv(10,$get(size),14))

... is the "evil" line ...!! (Search in Wordpad ;-) )
You can try to exchange the given "14" with a "12" and see if it works ...

AFTER that go to the "Played Time" Sequence:

CODE

//////////////////////////////////////Time total Bitrate Samplerate/////////////////////////////////////////////////////
...
...
...
...
//$if(%_time_total%,
...
...
...
$alignabs($add(245,$get(f9)),$div(%_height%,5),%_width%,%_height%,,)
...
...
$alignabs(259,$div(%_height%,5),%_width%,%_height%,,)
...
...
$alignabs($add(266,$get(f11)),$div(%_height%,5),%_width%,%_height%,,)


.
..
...


//////////////////////////////////////////Codec///////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$alignabs(285,$div(%_height%,5),%_width%,%_height%,,)
...
...

Here you can put each 3-digit-number a little bit up (steps by 1).

I hope it will help ...!!

________________________________________________________________________________________

And to be in the Leage of Suggest0rs:
- Russell, have you seen the //$if(%_time_total%, above as a quote of your code ...?? . . . <<---- ...!!

- I like the functions of the 2nd one but nessesarily more the size of the first ... ---> Perhaps you could implement a smooth blink-script (not too fast) that switches between the Codec-stuff and the Rating/Playcount ...??
. |
. |___-> The Name-Stuff (spex mentioned) would fit there as a 3rd instance to switch between as well

- And the Rating-RANGE should be "easy customiseable", too (like the colors, eg ) ...!!

________________________________________________________________________________________

I am already impressed ...!!

[Russell777]

Well,where do i start?

Russell777, I think version 1.0 and 111 should still be posted, I'm using ver. 1.1.1 because I like the short look, and the long one doesn't fit into my config, ver. 1.0 I think also looks great, I kept them both, but I feel some people may be missing out not having seen the two prior versions.

Version 1.1.1 is exactly the same as V1.1.2 except for bad alignment,as for V1.0 i'll post it after fixing it's alignment issues.

Id quite like the option to change the overall font of the text but still keep it in proportion. I know i could do this manually but the code is a little confusing to me

Ok,but it will be a little complicated (and probably enlarge the code size x2) so to avoid doing it for
every version that will come out before we settle all the issues down i will not do it for now,it will be in the final version
i believe.

- I like the functions of the 2nd one but nessesarily more the size of the first ... ---> Perhaps you could implement a smooth blink-script (not too fast) that switches between the Codec-stuff and the Rating/Playcount ...??

That's a good one,I'll put it as an option (you will be able to switch between "show all" mode and "blink" one)

Here's an idea... How about having a artist/title/album section to the right, which scrolls when they're too long..?

Yes it's a "must",but since there's no native support for scrolling it will be done using "home made" scrolling
effect that will take place once in a second (not very smooth)
