[release]foobaripod

Well it's here.

GUiPodPlayer.gif

IMHO I think I've really pushed the limit for Samurize with this one :)

UPDATED

~~~~~~

I have updated skin to samurize v1.20 , add support for winamp5 and iTunes, and change name to GUiPod Player.

I've also post this skin in Samurize CONTEST forum and got some nice comments,and it seems that there is gona be a Konfabulator PORT !!! :woot:

I got request and send resources so we'll just have to wait and see...

I recommend that you remove your old skin installation. It's optional - if you don't remove it everything will still work but . . .

With new samurize 1.20 it's possible to have config files in separate folder to minimize the clutter so I have restructured folders so that each subskin style has it own folder under Configs folder, and I have changed main skin folder under Skins folder for same reason. With all that done I had to adjust the scripts too.

You should close any running instances of foobariPod and then :

- delete all' foobariPod*.ini' in '~\Samurize\Configs' (9 of them)

- remove 'foobarplayer' folder from '~\Samurize\Skins'

- remove 'foobariPod' folder from ˇ~\Samurize\Scripts' ....

- install the new skin.

If you don't do that you MUST overwrite old files when prompted but that will leave you with some uselles duplicates.

READ the GUiPod Player readme for installation details ...

GUiPod Player Samurize skin for :

 foobar2000 v0.7.x

#108903

I love it but I'm having a problem. The song title and any text that belongs in the box is not showing up. However, the controls on the right work just fine.

If you like I could port it to iTunes but I fuc.king suck at samurize (at least at releasing configs  <_< ) so mebbe someone else would like to? It wouldnt be hard....

EDIT

Ill just do it, it will take about 15 seconds. Ill need crni's permission to release.

I suck at configs so I cant make the visuals work...oh well.

Please guys read the README file .

If someone provide me with controls

(command line switches,vbs scripts...)

for controling some other player - I will port this

skin to support that player.

I'll do the port , I just need player controls...

#108922

OK my port just ground to a screeching halt

Controls?

They were released here...mebbe by localhost?

#108924

Hey crni I don't see anything under visualizations that would allow it except enabling visualizations ????

#108927

Haha I feel a bit dumb, well never have used foobar before so here I am asking question....how do you install visual plug in again?

I tried preference and visualizations but there is only check box option which says visualization processing enabled...

Using foobar 2000 v 0.7.7b version....

.. :rolleyes:

I just reinstalled Samurize and the same problem was fixed. But if you go into the Foobar2000 Menu then click preferences then click visualizations....if there is no plus or minus sign there then reinstall Samurize. Otherwise, you should see Samurize Visualization.

#108931

Thanks Mesh that did the trick... :D

Looks everything fine now....

Good job crni !! (Y)

#108933

All hail... CRNI. :bow:

Magnificent. ;) Thanks. ^_^

#108939

Got the visual now. Thanks Mesh.. :D

#108953

this is very good work, not to put anyone else's down, but i think this just brought the standard to a new level...

can i just request something to go into the readme? because not everyone installs apps into C: can you include a note that if foobar is not installed into C:\program files\etc., they have to go into each bezel and change the configuration setting file to point to where it is installed? it took me a little bit to figure out why none of the buttons were working...

again, thanks much. (Y)

#108976

Awesome job, clean and neat, as always Crni, too bad that Samurize scrolling is so fast... :D

Off topic, but there is one of your OB which is not available, the Metallic OB cant be downloaded

tx for the crasy job !

#108978

To put it simply, this is a masterpiece

I love your work, and I think that this is one of your best creations yet ;)

And if you have time, a port to iTunes would be great. There are lots of iTunes controls out there - there are some included with the "unpod" samurize script. If you get permission, maybe you could use those?

Well, anyway - keep up the good work!

:bow:

#108986

it would be nice if you could port it to winamp, here's a control pack for winamp 2.x/5 I found it at samurize.com and I used to use it for my config. As for the permission I think there's no need to get it...

Winamp control

#108992

great work (Y)

just edited it for iTunes and its perfect.

big thx crni

#109008

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, i cant use it on my maaaaaaaaaac!!! :cry:

why is it that just when i switch, all these great configs start popping out!!!!! NOOOOO

GREAT WORK CRNI, as usual!

#109009

Awesome work crni! Only problem i have is the Artist title and file info is not showing up. My visualizations are enabled and still nothing showing up. What could be my problem?

Thanks in Advance,

Adam S.
