I tried foobar2000 many times before and always went back to Winamp (which, I acknowledge, is written by a 12 year old boy).
After a couple weeks of puzzling over how to see what song will play when I hit Next:RTFAQ:
How do I have a Winamp / MediaMonkey style "now playing" playlist?
Unlike winamp (and mediamonkey), there is no special "now playing" playlist in foobar; the foobar way of doing things is to play playlists. That said, you can use the playback queue to get a similar functionality. Instead of clicking "play", use the "add to playback queue" command. You can use foo_uie_queuemanager component to display a panel that displays queued songs.
Their playlists are bullshit. You can't put search results in a playlist without a bunch of right-clicking or a separate add-on that makes every search result an ephemeral playlist. There is no drag and drop between playlists. If you are playing out of one playlist and navigate to another, the only way to detect what playlist is playing, is from the name of the song that's on (not displayed by default).
foo_uie_queuemanager is obsolete and crashes v1.0; the forums' cited replacement is a dead link.
"Add to Playback Queue" is item number six in a fourteen-item right-click menu.
Hey what do you know, Jhoh and I already reviewed this:Ray: They secretly wish that the act of enjoying music could be replicated with procedures and rules
Creexul: Hahahahahahaah.
Creexul: Hm mayhaps you are right.
Creexul: I think most people these days who say they "love music" as in they love music more than stupid plebian pleebs who merely "listen to music" have to prove they love music by creating intricate spreadsheets about the thousands of bands and genres and songs and albums they listen to and claim to "enjoy."
Ray: Picking them like stocks
Creexul: TO SHOW THEY ARE SERIOUS
Playlists ... or portfolios? |
