Hello,

how do you activitate the playlist tree? I am on 0.9.5.2 version.
I tried to trigger a query but nothing happens. In the preferences page, when i click on query, or leaf, there is a dialog bow with "Playlist Tree must be active to select icons" message. How can i do this?

Thanks in advance

hi all,

just came back to foobar2000 after a necessary reinstall. My previous installation of fb was rarely old and not really up-to-date. Because of not backed up any setting, components et al. i'am now trying to rebuild it.

By copying playlist_tree and cwb_hooks to the components directory, fb say after a restart that they are not for this version (the newest 9.5.3).
---
The following components are incompatible with this foobar2000 version and will function partially or incorrectly:
- foo_cwb_hooks.dll : cwbowron's title format hooks, Tagger Panel Window
- foo_playlist_tree.dll : Playlist Tree Panel
Please update these components to their latest versions if possible.
--
Hmm, referring to http://www.bazquux.com/wiki/Foobar2000:Playlist_Tree it seems they won't be updatet. Is there a hope to get them to work or do i have to look for an alternative.

kind regards
rainer

What rating/star system works best with Playlist Tree?
Is there a way to make a "Party Shuffle" script along the following lines:

Make a 5-song playlist that will favor higher-rated/starred tracks
sort randomly
have it autoupdate after every track
?

Thanks,
Arithmomaniac

anyone know of a way to prevent foo_uie_albumart from displaying images from the selection in foo_playlist_tree? thanks.

The simplest way is to make sure that 'toggle follow cursor' (in the album art context menu) is off, so that it always displays art for the currently-playing song only. You can also switch this off by double-clicking on the art panel.

I don't know if there's a way to set it to follow your cursor within a playlist, but to ignore selections made in Playlist Tree, though.

damn, im not sure when this behavior was changed but its kind of annoying now. its a shame the older versions of playlist tree are nowhere to be found. R.I.P playlist tree, cwbowron and his components will be greatly missed. sad.gif

I'm using playlist tree in order to generate automatic bests of (by genre, artist, year and so on)
It do very well the job but for the artists best of, I want to add a filter and I don't know how :

Today I use :
source :
@database

Criteria :
%rating% GREATER 2

Format :
%artist%|%rating% - %title%

But a lot of artists only have 1 song in their best of and I prefer display only those who have at least 2 songs

Is it possible to add this filter ? unsure.gif

What exactly isn't working in 0.9.5.3 with Playlist Tree? It seems to be working fine for me (outside the lack of $rand() which was removed before), though I don't have any particularly complicated queries in it.

Is there any equivalent function with the new default UI? I mainly use it just for making playlists containing/not containing particular genres, ratings or filetypes.
DocBeard
I was able to use Playlist Tree without incident in 9.5.3 for a while (aside from the error message, obviously). I assume there are some functions within it that use the bad API, but I couldn't tell you what they are.

For making simple playlists that match up to simple (or not so simple) queries, I find the new Library Search command to be pretty effective. You could probably also set up an Album List view by genre, and then of course there's Facets (which I am not all that familiar with, as I don't use the Default UI).
