Foobar 2000 Screenshot Thread

Thanks adrift.....

I'm a big fan of Br3tt's configs......It's funny when I first came across them, I had all sorts of problems installing them and would send him emails and he always responded, but I drove him crazy..lol...Once I got the hang of it, it was pretty straightforward...

The thing to keep in mind- Panels UI goes up to Foobar 9.5.2...Columns UI is current. So when you see a config in Panels UI that you like and you have Foobar 9.6.8 it won't work....

Also, Br3tt's configs are fcl import....He basically sets it all up for you...You just have to follow the steps up to the import time and after....

I have several PCs all w/ Foobar w/ different configs and what I have found helpful for me is that I keep a copy of my current Foobar components folder on a flash drive. If I install a new config and add or remove previous components and don't like it, all I have to do is copy and paste my previous components folder and that's it.....
Now, when I had 9.5.2 and 9.6.8 that's a different story because older components won't work with the newer Foobar....I had copies of 2 different components for each...WASAPI etc.......But, I recently updated everything to 9.6.8 so no more worries....

To me, Foobar is an awesome player and powerhouse with many benefits. Tweaking it to your liking is just part of the glorious journey....

If Itunes offers everything you want then why start the Foobar thread?
Not bad player for some but I like players with a bit more options and features to them. To each their own though..

Just run the default player then. Maybe install 1 or 2 UI plugins to help with layout and organization of media files.

Playing David TMX a french band that produce free music.

I prefer a simple player rather than a over complicated thing like other skins, i just created a simple skin using column ui quick setup.

I think I'm going to whip up a super simple guide to applying the Xchange theme to Foobar today. I'll keep this thread updated when I do.

I had similar difficulty as you posted about this skin. Just not knowing where to put the folders. Once that was done it all falls into place. I spent a bunch of time on it just as you did trying to get the skin working properly. I I think it would have been nice to find a reasonable guide on installing this skin. You could make a generic skin install guide as some have no idea on how to install anything in Foobar.
