ColumnsUI config for foobar2000 v1.0+ (v1.5 tested with foobar2000 v1.1.7)

Versions History:
v1.0 : Released on 2010-05-02
v1.1 : Released on 2010-05-16
v1.2 : Released on 2010-05-19
v1.3 : Released on 2010-05-27
v1.4 : Released on 2010-07-28
v1.5.0 : Released on 2011-08-26
v1.5.1 : Released on 2011-08-29

What's new in v1.5.1 ? Just Check the change log file stored in ...skins/tech/ folder

BEFORE INSTALLING, check requirements below

*Cleaning previous Tech Installation
  • If you want to update an existing TECH config, you MUST delete the previous .../skins/tech folder before extracting the new .zip file, otherwize, it could generate some WSH crash later!

*Required Fonts
*Required dependencies
  • foo_wave_seekbar component requires
    • Ms Visual C++ 2010 SP1 32 bits version even on x64 systems > [link]
    • and for Direct3D rendering of the wave seekbar, DirectX Runtimes 9 (not installed on Seven by default) > [link]

*Installation Notes
  1. Install foobar2000 if not already done (Normal or Portable installation, as you prefer), then :

    • If Normal install done, extract the .zip file into your foobar2000 user profile folder, on Seven it's C:\Users\<your_username>\AppData\Roaming\foobar2000\

    • If Portable install done, extract the .zip file into your foobar2000 program folder, for example C:\My Programs\foobar2000\

  2. Run foobar2000

  3. When prompted, select as default interface "ColumnsUI" then OK

  4. Now Tech layout is visible, first your have to configure your media library : use the main menu entry "Library>Configure"

  5. You have to setup Shpeck component: "File>Preference>Visualizations>Shpeck" then Change Winamp Directory with your foobar2000 installation folder, it contains a fake winamp.exe. After that an available plugin will appear in the list, configure if you need, click Start/Stop button to active the panel

  6. Installation is now over, you may have to set some other useful features, like "Cursor follows Playback" (menu "Playback") ...

It's that easy :D

*Tips:
- Right click on the ELPlaylist > Group/Sort by ... will give you 4 presets :)
- Try the right click on all items ... there are some useful context menu there ...
- For a smoother scrolling in playlist, disable Pseudo Transparency in ELPlaylist settings (recommended for slow computer or netbooks or simply is playlist is so huge!)

I absolutely love this skin. It is fantastic. It is the only skin I like using. If it weren't for this skin, I'd still be using mediamonkey.
That being said, why is there no scroll bar in the library?
There has to be something to implement so that people with large libraries don't have to scroll endlessly to look through their music. I understand that I can just search for what I'm looking for, but you know, I don't always know what that is.
Maybe even speeding up the scroll speed, that would be perfect actually!

Hello Br3tt! First of all - great skin. I've been avoiding foobar for quite some time mainly because it looked ugly, but then I came accross an installer with your skin bundled in and now I'm in love! :)

Just one quick question, if you don't mind: is it possible to resize vertically the bottom panel that houses the wave seekbar and the filters? And/or to move it above the main panel with the playlists?

Thanks in advance!

I found a bug!
But it is not Your mistake.
Search for same artist wont work with latest Version 1.1.7
insted of searching for the same artist a window pops up
with "Choose Picture to Attach as artist"
I did not found a solution for this.
The only solutin is to use Version 1.1.6

BTW great skin :peace:
