May 30 20:32:33 <Elements> yeah
May 30 20:32:38 <Elements> lol
May 30 20:32:50 <Paine> right, the other day when you asked me why I used columns_UI's playlist
May 30 20:33:06 <Paine> Well the thing is, I thought SCPL was the /default/ playlist that came with foobar
May 30 20:33:19 <Paine> I didn't realise it was this entirely different thing.
May 30 20:33:25 <Paine> and now I need some help configuring for it.
May 30 20:33:27 <Elements> Oh, no. No it's completely different indeed
May 30 20:33:39 <Elements> Sure, I'll do what I can.
May 30 20:33:44 <Paine> Firstly, I need to figure out how to create a header columns
May 30 20:33:53 <Paine> I want a header for each CD on an album
May 30 20:34:10 <Elements> So, you want it to sort by disc?
May 30 20:34:15 <Paine> So, Disc 1 would be one header, then disc 2 would be a second header
May 30 20:34:17 <Elements> right
May 30 20:34:22 <Paine> yeah, how do I do that
May 30 20:34:29 <Paine> the settings menu is very...
May 30 20:34:31 <Paine> shit.
May 30 20:34:34 <Elements> Yeah
May 30 20:34:41 <Paine> I don't actually think it's in there to be honest.
May 30 20:34:56 <Elements> Well, before panels ui it was easy
May 30 20:35:05 <Paine> I would assume so.
May 30 20:35:14 <Elements> There was a box which said "sort by" and you could jsut type in %artist% %album% %disc%
May 30 20:35:19 <Elements> And it would sort by those criteria
May 30 20:35:22 <Paine> yeah, and that would do it
May 30 20:35:28 <Paine> I read that part... and got lost immediately.
May 30 20:35:31 <Elements> Now you need to use panels retarded sort criteria
May 30 20:35:34 <Paine> considering I can't see that box..
May 30 20:35:38 <Elements> Which I still haven't figured out
May 30 20:35:45 <Paine> Oh, so you're fucked too?
May 30 20:35:49 <Elements> Paine, yeah. It doesn't exist since panels ui
May 30 20:36:10 <Paine> well I think I might've found something
May 30 20:36:11 <Elements> I can't figure out the panels sorting. It never does what I tell it
May 30 20:36:52 <Paine> CTRL P -> panels_ui -> Sort/Group
May 30 20:36:54 <Paine> what's that page for?
May 30 20:37:08 <Elements> That's the ridiculous sorting criteria that everybody hates
May 30 20:37:17 <Paine> fuckin marvelous \o/
May 30 20:37:23 <Elements> Yeah
May 30 20:37:30 <Elements> This is apparently progress
May 30 20:37:35 <Paine> let's see...
May 30 20:37:39 <Paine> I wonder what $if(%totaldiscs%,$if($greater(%totaldiscs%,1),[Disc %disc%]),[Disc %disc%]) does
May 30 20:38:04 <Elements> I'll pastebin what is in my sortGroup window
May 30 20:38:12 <Paine> wait where's this?
May 30 20:38:30 <Elements> In the "single column playlist layout selector box in sort/group
May 30 20:38:35 <Paine> ah...
May 30 20:39:11 <Elements> http://pastebin.ca/523384
May 30 20:39:34 <Elements> You might be able to modify one of those to reflect discs
May 30 20:39:35 <Paine> you have GOT to be kidding me.
May 30 20:39:47 <Elements> Bullshit isn't it?
May 30 20:40:12 <Paine> Want a reason why I'm not using SCPL?
May 30 20:40:15 <Paine> There's your fucking reason.
May 30 20:40:20 <Paine> O_O
May 30 20:40:28 <Elements> hahahaha
May 30 20:40:34 <Elements> This is all panels fault
May 30 20:40:41 <Elements> I swear, SCPL was a dream before panels
May 30 20:40:45 <Elements> So easy to use
May 30 20:40:56 <Elements> IT was basically a bigger version of track_info_mod
May 30 20:43:14 <Paine> does that shite actually work?
May 30 20:43:21 <Paine> I mean that code?
May 30 20:43:36 <Elements> After a fashion. It's a fucking nightmare.
May 30 20:43:47 <Paine> well the code you're using now you said works...
May 30 20:43:57 <Paine> you should see the shit I just got in #foobar2000 for asking
May 30 20:44:03 <Paine> <Neptune> Paine: you are most probably the only person using Panels UI here
May 30 20:44:03 <Paine> <Paine> marvelous \o/
May 30 20:44:03 <Paine> <Jens> Ha ha... panels ui. Enjoy your AIDS.
May 30 20:44:17 <Paine> That's right, panels_ui is comparable to aids.
May 30 20:44:19 <Elements> I downloaded cepiperez's config for a nice fullsceen config, and it fucked up the other config I was using completely
May 30 20:44:42 <Elements> Paine, yeah. everone hates it
May 30 20:44:47 <Elements> It gets worse with every version
May 30 20:45:00 <Paine> see the worst part though
May 30 20:45:13 <Paine> is I can actually use panels_ui
May 30 20:45:23 <Paine> but only after a hack to make it work inside columns_ui
May 30 20:45:26 <Paine> :P
May 30 20:45:28 <Elements> lol
May 30 20:45:35 <Paine> so basically, columns_ui is the master
May 30 20:45:45 <Paine> because fucking panels_ui decides "NO BITCH, NO FUCKING TOOLBARS FOR YOU"
May 30 20:45:56 <Paine> "WHO SAID YOU COULD HAVE A FUCKING TOOLBAR? NOT ME. BUAHAHHA. NO TOOLBAR FOR YOU. FUCK YOU AND DIE>"
May 30 20:46:02 <Elements> I'm seriously thinking of ditching panels and going back to SCPL and track_info_mod
May 30 20:46:27 <Paine> I just want my piratebar to actually work... then I'll be happy.
May 30 20:46:31 <Elements> The only real benefit I'm getting from panels is the lack of lines between the components
May 30 20:46:39 <Paine> yeah... that's about it tbh.
May 30 20:46:51 <Paine> not sure if track_info_mod supported images though
May 30 20:46:57 <Elements> It did
May 30 20:47:18 <Elements> It would do scrolling images and everything
May 30 20:47:26 <Paine> mm.
May 30 20:47:46 <Paine> I think I'll start a columns_ui build of this foobar and see what happens
May 30 20:47:57 <Paine> find me a link to track_info_mod and SCPL please?
May 30 20:49:35 <Elements> Hmm, track_info mod seems to have been discontinued. It isn't on the author's site anyway
May 30 20:49:58 <Elements> Or perhaps his site is down
May 30 20:50:12 <Elements> http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Components_0.9/Single_Column_Playlist_%28foo_uie_single_column_playlist%29
May 30 20:50:20 <Elements> http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Components_0.9/Track_Info_Panel_Mod_%28foo_uie_trackinfo_mod%29
May 30 20:50:28 <Elements> Is where I found them originally, but they are dead now
May 30 20:50:47 <Elements> Maybe ask in #foobar2000? They probably have up to date links
May 30 20:50:56 <Paine> I'm asking now.
May 30 21:07:50 <Paine> : http://rapidshare.com/files/34312266/Elements.zip.html
May 30 21:07:52 <Paine> sex plz
May 30 21:07:58 <Paine> I had to find them myself
May 30 21:08:35 <Paine> quite frankly the people in #fb2k are assholes
May 30 21:08:36 <Paine> <Paine> I mean, without track_info_mod and SCPL standalones, I'm stuck with it :/
May 30 21:08:36 <Paine> <Jens> No you're not.
May 30 21:08:36 <Paine> <Jens> If you want a fancy looking UI go use iTunes or WMP, which actually have some measure of support.
May 30 21:08:36 <Paine> <Paine> uh...
May 30 21:08:36 <Paine> <Paine> I'd rather chop my nads off.
May 30 21:08:36 <Paine> <Paine> and yours.
May 30 21:08:36 <Paine> <Jens> Why? iTunes has ratings and album art and all the other things people are crazy about.
May 30 21:09:05 <Elements> Ask them what the point of them being in there is, if all they are going to do is be unhelpful?
May 30 21:09:48 <Elements> thanks for the zip
May 30 21:15:18 <Paine> anyway
May 30 21:15:21 <Paine> now I have standalone SCPL
May 30 21:16:09 <Elements> Reet.
May 30 21:16:29 <Elements> So, once you've set it as your display thingy as opposed to panels or columns
May 30 21:16:38 <Elements> Right click on the playlist and click settings
May 30 21:16:45 <Elements> And there should be a "sort by" box
May 30 21:16:53 <Paine> Group By
May 30 21:17:01 <Elements> yeah
May 30 21:17:08 <Elements> Putting in %disc% should work
May 30 21:17:30 <Paine> well no because I have a lot of disc 1's, and a lot of disc 2's :P
May 30 21:17:40 <Paine> %album% %disc% ?
May 30 21:17:46 <Elements> Yeah
May 30 21:17:56 <Elements> They may need a , between them, I'm not sure
May 30 21:18:05 <Paine> 5 secs and I can check...
May 30 21:18:06 <Paine> adding files.
May 30 21:18:51 <Paine> aye needed comma
May 30 21:19:01 <Elements> but it works now?
May 30 21:19:09 <Paine> for the most part, now to configure.
May 30 21:19:46 <Elements> Aye, those hydrogenaudio pages have the basics I believe
May 30 21:20:48 <Paine> ergh
May 30 21:20:51 <Paine> what's the $image code ?
May 30 21:21:25 <Elements> $imageabs(X,Y,imageName,imageOptions)
May 30 21:21:44 <Elements> imageoptions is stuff like rotateflip, alpha etc
May 30 21:21:54 <Paine> Failing :/
May 30 21:22:14 <Elements> failing how?
May 30 21:22:58 <Paine> $imageabs(%_width%,%_height%,X:/Columns_UI Piratebar/images/case.png,)
May 30 21:22:58 <Paine> $imageabs(%_width%,%_height%,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,folder.jpg),nokeepaspect)
May 30 21:22:58 <Paine> $imageabs(%_width%,%_height%,X:/Columns_UI Piratebar/images/gloss.png,)
May 30 21:23:01 <Paine> nothing is appearaing.
May 30 21:23:10 <Paine>
May 30 21:23:11 <Paine> I see why.
May 30 21:23:13 Paine slaps self
May 30 21:23:26 <Elements> lol
May 30 21:23:45 <Paine> actually that didn't fix it...
May 30 21:23:49 <Paine> same as above but with 0,0, now.
May 30 21:23:59 <Elements> hmm
May 30 21:24:15 <Elements> Where are you putting the image? in group or item?
May 30 21:24:28 <Paine> this is in a trackinfo_mod panel.
May 30 21:24:35 <Elements> Ah, right
May 30 21:24:56 <Elements> I'll switch to an old config and look, once sec
May 30 21:25:05 <Paine> $imageabs(0,0,%foobar_profile_directory%\subfolder\your_pic.png,flow alpha-150)
May 30 21:25:07 <Paine> should work :/
May 30 21:25:09 <Paine> but.... whatever.
May 30 21:26:03 <Elements> I have $imageabs(0,21,images\b2g.png,) as a background image in track info mod
May 30 21:26:06 <Elements> and it works
May 30 21:26:15 <Elements> I assume you have zlib and libpng dll files
May 30 21:26:30 <Paine> Man
May 30 21:26:34 <Paine> this thing just wants to fuck with me.
May 30 21:26:36 <Elements> lol
May 30 21:26:40 <Paine> I just changed it to images\...
May 30 21:26:43 <Paine> and now it works.
May 30 21:26:48 <Paine> Fuck you, trackinfo mod
May 30 21:27:07 <Elements> lol
May 30 21:27:38 <Paine> well
May 30 21:27:46 <Paine> it would appear my album art image isn't appearing still.
May 30 21:28:22 <Elements> Try: $imageabs2(75,75,,,,,0,30,$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,)*folder*.*,NOKEEPASPECT)
May 30 21:28:39 <Elements> You MIGHT need to add a line above it saying // PerTrack
May 30 21:28:46 <Elements> with the space between // and PerTrack
May 30 21:29:43 <Paine> Not working.
May 30 21:29:45 <Paine> Frustrating
May 30 21:30:32 <Elements> one sec
May 30 21:30:35 <Paine> maybe something stupid like closing and reopening will work.
May 30 21:30:56 <Paine> nope.
May 30 21:31:00 <Elements> firefox has gone ape and isn't letting me do anything
May 30 21:31:29 <Elements> http://pastebin.ca/523533
May 30 21:31:33 <Elements> That is my scpl config
May 30 21:31:35 <Elements> no it isn't
May 30 21:31:38 <Elements> It's my track info code
May 30 21:31:55 <Elements> paste that in and see if it shows images
May 30 21:32:03 <Elements> I know you don't have my bacground images
May 30 21:32:08 <Elements> But it should show album art
May 30 21:34:56 <Paine> nuh uh
May 30 21:35:02 <Paine> getting a few UNKNOWN FUNCTIONs though
May 30 21:35:08 <Elements> hmm
May 30 21:36:09 <Elements> Ah, this is interesting
May 30 21:36:24 <Elements> I'm somehow using SCPL, without actually having them in the components directory
May 30 21:37:00 <Elements> It must be using them from the panels dll
May 30 21:37:16 <Elements> try closing foobar, removing SCPL and TIM
May 30 21:37:23 <Elements> Then starting it again using this config
May 30 21:37:49 <Elements> Because you may have an old version :/
May 30 21:38:51 <Paine> well considering it's recognising $imageabs2 as an unknown function
May 30 21:39:05 <Elements> Yeah, it shouldn't be doing that
May 30 21:53:23 <Paine> give me your fucking .dll
May 30 21:53:51 <Elements> Which one?
May 30 21:53:58 <Elements> I'm just using panels ui 12
May 30 21:54:05 <Paine> ...cunt.
May 30 21:54:19 <Elements> Sorry
May 30 22:04:25 <Paine> I just fucking LOVE the way $char(10) doesn't work on the headers by the way.
May 30 22:05:15 <Elements> Yeah, it sucks.
May 30 22:05:21 <Paine> Patience has completely left me right now
May 30 22:05:26 <Paine> Not only has this pissed me off to the brink
May 30 22:05:32 <Paine> but I think it's about to push me the fuck over.
May 30 22:05:41 <Elements> lol, give it up and get itunes like they said :P
May 30 22:05:47 <Paine> NOW IT WANTS ME TO CONVERT ALL THESE FUCKING HEX VALUES TO RGB
May 30 22:05:51 <Paine> FUCKING WANKERS.
May 30 22:05:54 <Elements> hahahahaha
May 30 22:06:03 <Paine> Fuck it in the face.
May 30 22:06:04 <Paine> Fuck it.
May 30 22:06:07 <Elements> Sorry, I shouldn't laugh.
May 30 22:06:07 <Paine> Just plain Fuck it.
May 30 22:06:16 <Elements> I know your fristration though
May 30 22:07:18 <Paine> Oh even fucking BETTER
May 30 22:07:21 <Paine> it doesn't want to be RGB
May 30 22:07:31 <Paine> instead, it's something like GBR
May 30 22:07:43 <Elements> Yeah, it's backwards for some reason. I never understood that
May 30 22:07:45 <Paine> Fucking MARVELOUS.
May 30 22:08:55 <Paine> OH EVEN BETTER
May 30 22:09:00 <Paine> $tab doesn't even work
May 30 22:09:03 <Paine> BRILLIANT.
May 30 22:09:09 <Elements> GIVE UP!
May 30 22:09:28 <Paine> No, because I want to shit in it's face when I'm done.
May 30 22:09:32 <Paine> and be all
May 30 22:09:33 <Paine> Fuck you.
May 30 22:09:36 <Paine> You're my bitch now.
May 30 22:09:41 <Elements> lol, fair enough
May 30 22:13:40 <Paine> How the fuck do you set a fucking text color for fucks saske
May 30 22:15:07 <Paine> Oh Right
May 30 22:15:15 <Paine> by taking a huge shit and throwing at it and watching what happens.
