HTPC Fullscreen panels for foobar2000

This page comprises configuration scripts for WSH Panel Mod (foo_uie_wsh_panel_mod), a scriptable UI element for the audio player foobar2000. I use them on my living room computer to display what I’m listening to. Installation instructions are on the bottom of this page.

WSHtpc04—delayed-displays

This panel can be used for fullscreen panels and tiny (horizontal) spaces. It shows albumart or pictures from the audio file’s directory. Progress bar acts as a clickable seekbar, albumart is a huge pause button. In fullscreen layout, double-clicking on the right/left edges moves to next/previous track. In small horizontal layout, contents of tag grid table are displayed one after another in line three of the panel. New since version 0.4: basic theme support and compatible with WSH Panel Mod 1.5 versions.
