Full Version: [DOUBLE POST, TOS #6] Perfect Foobar 2000 Setup
Hydrogenaudio Forums > Misc. > Recycle Bin

Please help me setup my Foobar as I am very new to it.
I run Windows Vista Ultimate x64.
I need to setup certain things, but I need 100% Vista compatible plug-ins (if needed)
This is why I need help here.
Please provide the names (and links) of the Vista compatible plug-in(s) I need to accomplish the described below.

I want to be done is support for album art (maybe something that automatically downloads album art).
I want to display 3 columns on top (like iTunes) with genre, artist and album. Bellow those 'browser' columns would be another row (again, like itunes) that would split into more columns with artist, genre, year, last played etc.

Note: Please do not suggest that I JUST GO USE iTunes ( I can't take the negativity)
I need to use Foobar because I feel it's the best solution for my tagging and FLAC needs.


Thank you for all the help in advance.

Hi, i would say, just install Foobar2000 0.9.5 Beta 3.
There you have :
- Album art support
- Facets for Artist / Album / Genre display
- Playlist =)

All of this functionality is available with the default foobar v0.9.5 beta except for the "iTunes" columns, which are availble by using foo_facets by Frank Bicking.

Alternately if you prefer ColumnsUI you can use foo_uie_albumart for your album art, foo_browser the built-in filter panels for the "iTunes" columns, and either a Columns Playlist or the new NG playlist for the columns.

WOW!
The beta is great!
Why in the WORLD was it not like that before?

I wouldnīt recommend using foo_browser with ColumnsUI as it is buggy and ColumnsUI has itīs own browser panels these days anyway which are working great. So there isnīt any need for a seperate component for that.
