What's your foobar2000 setup? - Page 2

First post here but here you go.

I'm using DarkOne 3.0.1 with a few small tweaks.

I gotta find out.

How do you set up a rating system on foobar? Like a proper star system a la Windows Media Player? If it's possible it would make F2K surely perfect. I've tried again and again and it just doesn't seem t work. If you can provide components and simplish instructions that would be really helpful.

I'll post my set up later, i'm still getting it set up cuz i migrated to another computer.

Here is a theme I downloaded.  Pretty clean and functional I think.

You might want to check out foo_playcount.  Keeps track of when each file was added to the library, how many times it has been played, when it was last played, and a 5 star rating system.  http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_playcount

Though, seeing all these layouts with a waveform seek bar... going to add that to my setup. :D

Not sure how accelerated waveform plugins have been evolving lately, but when I last checked them, months ago, they weren't optimized enough and used more system resources than they actually required. But it certainly is a nifty thing :)

Firefox, on the other hand, is leaking up to 2GB again...

First of all, that a ton of RAM being used for foobar Mine uses less than half of that but, truth be told, I focus very little on UI features (that seem to consume more resources than they should) and a lot on components and VSTs, which are more CPU than RAM intensive.

Second, Firefox 4 leaks more RAM due to addon developers not having optimized their FF4 versions, and I mean haven't optimized at all. I was forced to disable several addons in order to close a severe memory leak that ended up using all available memory.

A very good reference guide on current state of addons is this: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/performance/

Oh, I wasn't even talking about shpeck, which isn't RAM intensive, but CPU and GPU intensive. You'll see what I mean when you start using the waveform bar (assuming the plugins are in a similar state).

Another DarkOne user here.

If you couldn't tell, album art is important to me. I have a 28 inch monitor. Also, I have yet to update the album art of this to a better scan.
