i'm ripping via EAC and importing the files to Foobar. how can i get the Artist/Genre/Album to populate with info for easy searching using the default Colums UI? scrolling though the NG Playlist is a bit of a PITA.

Use Panel UI

i don't think Panel UI is compatible with the latest Foobar version.

Panels UI stops at 9.5.2.

Is your question related to tagging? Once files are tagged properly, everything is recognized/searched very effectively.

If you want to tag a complete album- right click-tagging-freedb or manually.

I set up EAC to rip with all the correct info, so once I import to Foobar, I'm ready to go.

columns ui works a treat, pretty much the unofficial followup.
it's easy to set up so you have a set of filters (date/genre/artist/album/whatever else), and two playlists, one for what you're currently playing, and another for what you have selected. as long as your tags are right, of course.

yup. i set up EAC per the instructions here: http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f46/ea...torial-402765/.

under Preferences/Tools, i get no "Tagging" sub-folder to right click on. how do i set up EAC to tag properly?

You don't have to go under preferences. In your library you right click an album, song etc. A lot of options when you right click on a song or entire album.

See if it works...I'll try some screenshots if not...

Sorry, I meant the "Facets" component, it works with 1.0.
