Hi, I do not have a PC, neither will i have it anytime soon.
And i’d really like to have an archive converted to mp3/m4a that’s in .wem format, and i do not have a way of converting it on mobile.

Also, i do not know anyone in real life who has PC.

So if anybody wants to do it for me DM me, I’d be really grateful!

I'm using the 64bit version.

Hi all,

I'm using Refacets with Playlist View, with Library viewer selection playlist enabled. It seems to be just sorting by file order, and I can't figure out how to overwrite this. See example below.

Under Shell integration I have "Sort incoming files by":

%album artist% | %date% | %album% | %tracknumber%"

When I click "Edit > Sort by..." and use this pattern, it indeed sorts like I want, but then when I click away and click back to that same selection, it goes back to the original sorting that I don't want.

Any idea how Library viewer selection playlist is sorted or what setting I must change here?

i found a thread here of the same problem but I'm still unsure. appreciate any help!

Hello, In an effort to leave Spotify I've installed Foobar2000 on my android phone. Anytime I try to search for some help or directions I only get desktop foobar2000 results which don't help me at all for Android.

One missing feature from fb2k that I loved on Spotify is the ability to set a timer to smoothly stop the music after a defined amount of time. Not finding anything about that in fb2k I searched a bit and discovered that there's a component for it called timebomb, however when trying to find how I could install that on Android or even if it was possible to install components on Android I found nothing. Is it possible ? If yes, how ?

I also tried to find the app files on my phone to see if maybe there was a relevant components folder, but nothing comes up. It's like foobar installed nowhere at all, there isn't a single trace of where the app files of fb2k even are.

so TLDR :

1. Is there an in-app timer ?
2. Can we install components on the Android version of foobar2000 ?
3. If yes, how ?
4. Where are the app files ?

Does anyone know how I enabled this bit, showing the track count | bitrate, below the album in library view? I guess it must be an option on ColumnsUI but I've got no idea what I did to get it.

I'm using Georgia-Reborn.

Thanks!

I kept trimming foobar2000 mobile's now-playing screen until there was nothing left I didn't want. Sharing it in case someone else wants the same thing.

- Full format line — `ALAC · 840 kbps · 16-bit · 44.1 kHz` — at a readable size

- Large album art, album and year with it

- Seekbar shows **remaining**, not total

- Prev / play / next only. No shuffle, repeat, next-track line or position dot

Two variants: **-r** rounds the artwork corners, **-s** leaves them square. Skin format 2, so it needs foobar2000 mobile v1.5 or newer. Nineteen canvases registered by aspect ratio, so most phones and tablets should get a real layout rather than a fallback.

Built on **NewMoon 2.0** by TAOKA-Daiki — frames, icons and glyphs are theirs. The layouts are generated from one Python spec rather than hand-edited coordinates, so it's easy to fork and move things around to your taste.

The README also collects the format-2 things that cost me time — `.fbskin` is just a ZIP, text files must be UTF-16 or foobar silently ignores them, and how to get a `44.1 kHz` readout out of titleformatting.

**Download:** https://github.com/kunyu-zhang/foobar2000-minimal-skin

Feedback welcome, especially from tablet owners — that's the case I can't test myself.

Any suggestions?

Foobar2000 seems to be the only media player I've encountered on iOS that doesn't resume playback after a Siri interaction. Am I missing something, or is this just the way it is?

The only part that seems to prevent Georgia from running using the x64 fork of Spider Monkey Panel ( https://github.com/dima-lur/spider-monkey-panel-x64 ) is the VBScript‑based InputBox used in the Library panel.
The old ScriptControl ActiveX is 32‑bit only and fails on x64.

It looks like InputBox is used only for the “Create m‑TAGS” menu item in the Library panel.
By default, that menu item is commented out in the theme, so you can't use it anyway.
However, the fix ensures that if you ever modify the code and re‑enable it, it should work on x64 (hopefully).

You can download the patched version here: https://github.com/Artins90/Georgia/releases/tag/x64.compatibility.patch

I am a novice at best, so backup your old foobar configuration folder before making the switch: AppData\Roaming\foobar2000-v2

Hello I'm looking to install skins and plugins I watched a couple tutorials on YouTube and they look very complicated and they were like 20 minutes long and I got overwhelmed so I just Ragequit off So I was wondering if somebody could explain how to install skins to to a autistic retard

i have two foobar clients running and i want one to access the other's collection, when i try to get it to view my playlist (~16,000 tracks) it blanks out and doesn't show anything, is there a fix for this?

I have a lot of high-quality music (FLAC) and I don't feel like I'm getting the most out of it with my basic Bluetooth headphones and a 15-year-old sound system. So, while I save up to buy a hi-fi sound system, I'd like to know what I can do to improve the sound quality and enjoy my music more. Any advice?

I'm using V 1.4 because i'm a lazy bum and don't wanna do all the stuff with 1.6 or newer to deconstruct music. So I was curious if there is anyway to deconstruct .gsf (GameBoy Advance) music. I know you can do it with .spc, .rsn and, .vgm but I don't know about .gsf. (PS I've seen plugins but don't seem to work idk why)

ok, so i wanna a specific portion of the screen to be the playlist viewer, media search library and the eq. so i tried adding tabs for each component. but all tabs are the same component. when i switch one tab to a component. all the other tabs become the same component. when i remove a component in one tab. the same happens to all others. please help!

To begin with, I'm a complete newbie in this program. I've achieved this look for the player and in my opinion it looks clean and i like it (artwork + playlist view + spectrum analyser on the left and spider monkey panel with js smooth browser on the right)

However my setup lacks one feature I need: I want to have tabs on top of the smp with tabs "artist" "albums" and so on you got the point

In my main player (Dopamine) it looks like this

I spent about 2 hours talking with ChatGPT but it couldn't help me. I guess it's not so hard as I think it is and you will be able to help me

New to Foobar2000... I came to it because I'm trying to cut the Spotify ties and rebuild my library as FLAC only...

I started playing with the layout on Mac and this is what I came up with with the limited syntax I could find.

Does anyone know if it's possible to build a mini player?

I guess I could just use a one column layout and create minimal panels, but I wondered if there was a way to have a dialoge box with just the play controls and track info that I could have up with the main dialogue minimized?

or even better a toolbar widget 😄 ?

Hi all, I got a new computer and am setting up Foobar again, unfortunately SimPlaylist was pretty critical and I can't install it on this machine. Any ideas on how to achieve something similar to the setup in the pic, just the rightmost part? (I know about ReFacets for the left part). Thanks!

What I'm Trying to Accomplish: I'd like to be able to see albums in my library that have a high ratio of loved tracks to their total tracks. As a base equation this would simply be

tracks that have the value 1 for %lfm_loved% / %totaltracks%

So for example if I have an album with 10 tracks, 5 are loved, the result would be 50%

I am currently using ESPlaylist as a library viewer, which i believe can display sub counts for album groupings... but I'm pretty dumb with this stuff so not quite sure how to go about doing what I want to accomplish lol.

For the life of me, ive tried run as admin, changing regedit of audio devices, running it on a different drive, running it from cmd with bunch of stuff. Mightve missed something im not sure

I need to install it so i can actually use the EQ

Win11 laptop

I have installed the vu meter component from " https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_vis_vumeter ", made a folder in the same name as the component, placed that folder inside the "component" folder inside the foobar2000 files, then i placed the .bin files from " https://audio-file.org/foobar2000-vu-meter-skins-gallery/ " into that same folder.
Then from the foobar preferences--> components menu, I installed the component.
But when I add the vu meter in the layout it shows nothing at all (blank space).
please help
