What doesn't work?

They have autism

>Doesn't work out of the box.
Did you seriously manage to fuck up an install wizard?

What the fuck are you talking about?

OP here. Never mind I fucked up. I was trying to install it on an iPad.

MusicBee!
MusicBee!

Nah this shit doesnt work. What am I supposed to do with this? It's fucking nothing. Where is all my music? The library path is correct.

I'm not an autist and don't want to spend hours customizing shit for a player that's gonna be minimized most of the time. I just want something that works and looks decent with some nice features.

It's ok, Foobar isn't for you.
You need a bit of "autism" to appreciate it.

Works on my machine :^^^^^^^^^^^()

use musicbee since you're retarded.

install musicbee

>get born
>cant even talk or walk

fuck this gay earth

You can do a quick setup you quadruple nigger.

No customisation needed, just a few clicks and it's got all you need.

get on my lvl

Musicbee is even worse. It's 2016 and windows still don't have good music player and can't open selected file with spacebar.
music player should just open music files and library path (folders with music) like MOC.

Still not showing library just anime pictures like any crappy android player

KILL URSELF WEEABOO -_-

because my entire library is on my external HDD and im lazy to get out of bed and turn it on

Get rid of the superfluous Artist column, and it's God tier.

No, i like it this way

>I like shoving shards of glass up my Japs' eye.
Fix it.

you know a album can have multiple artists right?

Why are you not using Windows Media Player? It just werks

>Customization
>Organization
>ASIO

Literal god-tier

Compilation albums and soundtracks aren't worth listening to.
If you must, you can script it to only display the artist tag if it differs from the album artist tag.

>Compilation albums and soundtracks aren't worth listening to

i mostly listen to vidya and music OSTs
kill yourself senpai

>can't open selected file with spacebar
is this a bait? you can bind keys to do whatever you want on both foobar and musicbee.

>Sincerely listens to Vidya OSTs.
>Is telling anyone else to kill themselves.

Dumb shitposter, many albums have multiple artists. If i remove the artist column i will lose a lot of information

No, in windows file manager, I tried in win 7 and 10 and this is don't work.

>he doesnt listen to Gulty Gear OSTs on repeat

what normie shit do you even listen to? maybe you should fuck off back to Cred Forums

Werks on my machineā„¢.

>he listens to anime/video game osts

It just fucking werkz

This a rice thread?

what? It works very well here

>Poobar

It takes a bit of setting up but once you've got it going it's a dream.

>not understanding the difference between %artist% and %album artist%
>not organizing your library by %album artist%
>not putting 'feat. %artist% into the %artist% field so can see every feature track someone has done by entering their 'name feat.'
it's like almost like you're a pleb and your library organization is shit

although i must admit, displaying it after every track IS superfluous. you set it up to only show up if %artist% for the given track differs from %album artist%. works with %album artist% 'various artists' as well of course.

To further illustrate how that works, notice how on the ASAP Rocky album only tracks with featured artists display the %artist% value since they differ from %album artist% in that they contain the featured artists.

As a result one single library search for '2Pac feat.' will return all feature tracks in that library no matter what album they're on.

>winbabby can't even use a program with the simplest UI imaginable

I could never get into foobar customization. I downloaded a couple of components and it got to a nice point, but then I couldn't make or apply skins. It always fucked everything up.

Couldn't make something like this, for example.

This just in, autoplaylists are underappreciated.

It's really not that hard, for that setup I just used the Aubergine skin as a base, removed the WSH Panel Mod stuff that didn't work and customised some basic stuff like colours and other small details. Still looking to see how I can change the colour of the tab switcher though.

holy fuck this is what it's like talking to nana

i literally cant understand why anyone would want a music player to be on fullscreen, do you stare at the damn playlist as you listen to freyja rocking it out??

> a foobar2000 problem

I mean, i use mpd and ncmpcpp, so what do i know, right?

okay you dummy, you have to set the path, then scan the library too with guess what 'scan now' - yeah that's right.

after that i recommend monitoring the library for changes while f2k is running but not rescanning on startup. just leave f2k running. this way though changes that you do while f2k isn't running will not be reflected and require a rescan, or else there will be issues ofc.

Use AIMP it is better !

Not him, but I use fullscreen when I'm actively listening to music, as in not doing much else and focusing on listening. It makes going through my library much easier and I get to have a nice big image of the album art up front.
When I'm programming or working in photoshop/illustrator/corel I use a more minimal layout.

wow that memeface is from 2009 buddy wtf ru doin keep it fresh or gtfo

...

>actively listening to music

>drukqs

good man

>Falling for the poobar meme

bloated as fuck

I switched to musicbee. It's almost as customizable as foobar but much more user friendly.

>Nah this shit doesnt work. What am I supposed to do with this? It's fucking nothing. Where is all my music?
What are middle aged moms doing browsing Cred Forums?

>I just want something that works and looks decent with some nice features.
Use WMP then grandma since foobar is so "complicated" and "autistic".

You're the type of faggot that gets knocked by a backhand

wew fucking lad

stick to winamp and double clicking on your music folders in windows explorer, Foobar clearly isn't for brain dead idiots like yourself

>open foobar
>new playlist
>drag folder from file system to foobar

How can you fuck this up?

looks nice, minimized most of the time

why?

there are no instructions and 99% of music players just show your library immediately when you open the player

stay mad normie

>Why do people use this shit again?
It's for geeks

>there are no instructions

It was intuitive enough for me to get it within 20 seconds.

> 99% of music players just show your library immediately when you open the player

Yes, that's a very cool feature. I also like when all my other audio files and sometimes videos are added as well. Keeps things nice and neat.

Good taste

Not all album art has the same aspect ratio, so I would like to automatically change the width of the box to fit to the image width.
Anyone know how to do this in foobar2000?

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>Why do people use this shit again?
Because they have a brain, you should use MusicBee, it's like foobar2000 but for people without a brain.

Want to post that skin, or the name of it?

>he doesn't listen to anime/video game osts

Only Rice I need is the album art.

...

See

Thank you.

Hey you! Yes, you! How about this?

For your artist filters, set instead of just %artist% or %album artist% set it to

$Swapprefix(%album artist%,A,DJ,La,The,Tha)
or
$Swapprefix(%artist%,A,DJ,La,The,Tha)

$Swapprefix(%artist%) or $Swapprefix(%album artist%) will put 'The' and 'A' at the end of an artist name in your filter for better sorting.

If you add more values like I did up there, e.g. 'DJ', La etc. those will get treated the same way.

Works on my machine.

Not him but I always forget how to do this shit.

Thanks user.

No problem. I have another one but not for everyone.

///Media Key Support - For Windows users with media keys on their keyboards///

In Windows set foobar2000.exe as the default program for cda-files in order to launch via the 'MEDIA' media key on your keyboard.

Also, in f2k's preferences, set the same key as a global hotkey for minimizing to tray and maximizing as well.

Lastly, in f2k's preferences, set that same media + 'CTRL' key as a hotkey for closing f2k - but this time not globally of course.

That key is now your one-stop shop for opening, closing, maximizing and minimizing foobar2000.

So this works on Windows 7 btw. Can't speak for any other Windows. Maybe someone can give feedback.

Foobar without skins is shit. Just look at foobar on android no one uses it.

AIMP is objectively the best music player for Windows

What plugins/theme?

This is some quality bait, friend.

Hey guys, check out this cool new player I found!

>Muh audio quality
There's no difference between the built in player and foobar in audio quality

foobar while decent is kind of an old meme. I've moved on to MusicBee.

Nobody fucking cares about what you did

Dial it back a bit, faggot.

pls be b8

if not this board is fucking doomed

are you dumb? foobar sounds the same as any other player

>2016
>he still downloads music

ITS TIME TO GROW WITH THE TECHNOLOGY GRANDPA

yeah thats my point, but this idiot thinks that a player decides the audio quality

This is we're showing of foobar skins?

>Music of C&C Red Alert
>Hell March has max rating

my nigga

Hey, that's not a Klepacki track. Not a problem though, here you go: youtube.com/watch?v=kQADZeB-z8M&t=41m0s

>Hey, that's not a Klepacki track.
Hey, that's not a five star Klepacki track.

Klepacki made all of the C&C soundtracks from the first game up till Renegade. The only exception was Tiberian Sun.

so yeah, it is a Klepacki track.

See
Five star symbols got omitted. 'That's not a five star Kelpacki."

I use AIMP :3

>don't want to spend hours customizing shit for a player that's gonna be >I just want something that looks decent

You sure you don't have the 'tism?

Come on now...

>Strapping Young Lad
Good taste, your shit UI and weeb music is forgiven.
>trusting the internet
Gen Y everyone!

go back to linux kid

>autists getting mad someone doesnt want to bother learning how to use a music player
>muh customization
>i dont care about user friendliness

Why don't you guys program your own player then? :^)

I just want to thank Cred Forums for coming together for blowing the fuck out of OP

why would you not download music?

>pick how it looks
>pick that option
>wtf it doesn't work out the box

it does work out of the box you're just kind of dumb

>set up foobar
>add my entire library
>play some .mp3 I just downloaded
>library is gone
I am not good with computer.

remember Cred Forums winamp is making a comeback.

thanks user i needed a laugh today

it just werks

>Cred Forums uses poobar
not surprised

people have trouble setting up foobar?

>I'm not an autist
Can't get foobar running...
