My guide to making foobar pretty (usable).

Jun 19, 2006 at 3:11 PM Post #76 of 255
I'd like to use album art panel in 0.8.3. I just have one problem. Almost all my artworks are in \Artwork folders so album art panel doesn't find them. It only finds pictures which are in the same folder as the music files. So what string should I use so it would find the artwork from \Artwork folder?

For example if I have Pink Floyd - DSOtM then the address line goes like this:

E:\Rock - Metal\Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon (year)\Artwork

Or with some albums like this:

E:\Rock - Metal\Pink Floyd (year) Dark Side Of The Moon\Artwork

Thanks for your help.

I cannot for the life of me get the foo_ui_columns.dll to work. The wiki etc is of absolutely no help (does not even mention WHERE to put the file).
Anyhow its in foobar2000 root folder (also tried it in components folder)

and i get:

Failed to load DLL: foo_ui_columns.dll
Reason: This component is missing a required dependency, or was made for different version of foobar2000.

When starting foobar.
This is foobar version 0.9.2.

Thanks in advance!

Try this:

$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)Artwork\*

Hi Torm. I think, you are using the wrong version of foo_ui_columns.dll. Get the one for the foobar 0.9.2.

If for any reason that doesn't work, you could download AlbumArt Aggregator, and use it to find your album art all over again; it's pretty speedy. It will put the album art where it is supposed to be. The rescan your music library with album art enabled and you should be all set.

I'm probably missing something, but everytime I add an album is there a way to add it on its own rather than scanning everything?

It only takes a few minutes ATM, fast computer/70GB collection, but its ever increasing. It'll soon take 5 minuites, then 10....

Good question, I wondered the same thing about Foobar album list. WMP has an option for 'new files only' when searching, something equivalent would be nice.

Bloody hell. This is simply not working for me. I didn't find the foo_ui_columns.dll anywhere in the links I got... so I had to find it elsewhere. Once I did get Foobar to recognize it, it said:

Failed to load DLL: foo_ui_columns.dll
Reason: This component is missing a required dependency, or was made for different version of foobar2000.

I just downloaded foobar, so it's version 9.2. Anyone have any ideas?
