Hello !
I'm using foobar since 0.7 and I like it ! Using Foo_osd too, but I miss some function... With the last port for Foobar 0.9, I don't know how to display OSD with a keyboard shortcut. Is there any way ?
Thanks !

No, i noticed that too, i think he got rid of that feature. :/
As an alternative (sort of, depending on how you use it) you can set the OSD to display when you pause the track. That's what i did. Better than nothing.

I did it. But I miss this feature.
I hope its great developer will add this again !
I miss it too. You can use built-in fb2k tray notification instead or PrettyPopup component.

Yeah, that's right. But I prefer OSD. And I dismissed the tray icon, because of OSD use... so, if there is any maioration possibility of this great plugin it would be nice.

I also would like to use shortcuts for the foo_osd component! In my previous (8.3)setup it was the only way I used it.
btw, can someone tell me the difference between the 'normal' and the gdi+ version?

it uses microsofts gdi+ graphics library to draw to screen.. no idea what that means for the end user..

I've seen no difference, except the GDI+ version need much more resource. Visually, it is quite the same.
hello
I'm using foobar 0.8.3 and I'm looking for Foo_osd.dll but I only found the 0.9 version
So if anybody can give me an adress to download it
Thanks

By the way, here is my OSD code :
CODE
$if(%_ispaused%,ffffff|000000'[Pause] ')000000|00FFFF[%artist%]$char(10)
$if(%album%,00ffff|000000%album%) $if(%tracknumber%,#[%disc%/]$num(%tracknumber%,2)) $if(%album% && %tracknumber%,$char(10))
$if(%title%,000000|00FFFF%title%,%_filename%)$char(10)
$if(%_time_total%!=0,%_time_total% $progress(%_time_elapsed_seconds%, %_time_total_seconds%, 20,$char(9835),$char(8226)) $muldiv(%_time_elapsed_seconds%,100,%_length_seconds%)'%'$char(10),%_length%$char(10))
[cfa923|4b2b10Next: %_next%]
The fact is that the progressbar doesn't progress at all. Do you see the same thing ? It is like the %_time_total% couldn't be read at the true beginning of the track...

here there is only the 0.9 version and I'm looking for the old version for foobar 0.8.3

You're welcome.
excuse my ignorancce but what is foo_osd ?
is it like pretty pop and toaster?
update
just tested it out, i like this better then pretty popup, its very simple and displays exactly what i want.
Kind of - but much simpler. It displays a custom string on top of all windows. It stays there for a amount of time and then disappears again (no albumart or such stuff..)

It is very simple, and so doesn't need any resource.
I miss an hotkey option...

This feature has been requested several times and the developer will implement it when he feels like it.
No pointless thread bumping please.

Should I use the 'display forever' setting, is there a way to hide the OSD (maybe with an escape or a mouse movement)?
A few feature requests:
- vertical and/or horizontal scrolling (and bouncing) according to available space
- ability to show graphics if there is a particular value into a tag
- auto showing after some time the keyboard and mouse are not used (screeensaver behaviour)
- ability to set a fixed dimension (in pixels) of the background
Thanks.

Another way to do this would be to wait a port of foo_qconfig.
It allows you to add commands in menu. When a command is in a menu, you can assign a shortcut to it. At least, that worked like this in 0.8.3... and this was pretty useful.
Beside the shortcut keys, it seems that %_next% doesn't work either or am I miss something?

In "Default" playback order, it should work, but it will not work with the shuffle modes. At least it behaved like this in the 0.8 version.

Little refresh - any chances for adding keyboard shortcut?

Any chance of a keyboard shortcut for the "new" version of foo_osd ??
Anybody have any workarounds other than pausing/seeking the song?

A shadow effect and hotkey would be great if this is still being developed

It would be nice if it was able to detect full screen (like popup plugin for example).
But I guess plugin is not developed anymore. I hope someone else will improve it.
Great plugin.

Great plugin.
So nobody's developing it anymore?
I tried to use it but can't seem to be able to change the settings (they always come back to their default value after a message tells me "the current preset has been modified. Do you want to save the changes?", whatever I click, Yes or No.
=(
otherwise it's a great plugin yeah!

If you actually want assistance, you might want to be a bit more specific.
There are multiple tabs of values to set. Where are you having trouble.
It has been trouble free for this user.

This is a bug in the plugin. The only way to actually apply new settings is to "apply" them - just going elsewhere or clicking save will not work, because regardless of what you click in the mentioned popup, it will always discard the changes.
