I was just thinking about if it is possible to put my foobar on an usb-stick, cuz a friend of mine asked me to bring foobar with me and when I spend some days visiting my parents I could take my music on a portable harddisk with me (it would not be necessary to install foobar on any computer I use...). As I've never seen a special foobar version, I just thought I could ask this question.

thx

Basic answer: Yes. Install and uncheck "per user", and be warned about the media library (circumstances may have changed).

...and how to shrink it ?

The new version (0.9.4) folder is ~5,5 Mb sized; what we can remove ?

(Icons, i think...)

The plugins you do not need. E.g., if you use columns ui you will not need the standard ui component.

Minimal functional foobar2000 is 1.13 MB.



All executables UPX compressed. You can remove stuff like the uninstaller and the title formatting help and so on.

I use something like that for my USB key, so I can listen to DI.fm streams at school

using UPX is sometimes a bad idea though. while the compression is nice, it can cause some problems with some programs(not necessarily foobar2000).
