adding shortcut keys to foobar 2000
Hi all Im running into a strange problem within foobar 2000. Let me add that I have been a user of this excellent program for the last few years now. Im using Jaws 17 on a windows 7 system. Whenever I now try to add a shortcut key, say for example in the playback section, using say shift-p for that, it changes all of the items in that specific section to shift p. And I cannot seem to get out of that mode! Can anyone help. It has never done this to me before.

VLC for Mac was Re: foobar
Hi all Does anyone know of alternatives to VLC for the Mac? At the moment, if I open a folder containing thousands of files it gets busy for a long time. Using 2.2.1. I'm pretty sure an earlier version of VLC didn't do that. Any recommendations greatly appreciated. Thanks!

re foobar for james
Hi james, as i said in one of my earlier messages, when i installed foobar on my new computer, which was about three months ago, i went to the bottom of the screen with the numpad. i then arrowed up one line. there was something there, that when i did a left click brought the left and right arrows alive. when one has clicked on this, the line changes, and it becomes the line where the information for the file is shown. i used to have a note about foobar saying what this precise thing on which to click. but, i have unfortunately lost that note. however, i recognised it when i was setting up foobar2000 again. listers, it doesn't matter how you get the hotkeys aliv, as long as you do. so, follow james's instructions is good enough if you can't follow what i have said. brian.
re foobar hotkeys
Hi, i only use two hotkeys in foobar, as i only use it as a player. to start at the beginning of a file, the hotkey is letter c. the pause is letter x. i have forgotten precisely what the position is, but when you first bring up foobar, and got to the bottome of the screen, if you come up one movement with the numbpad if you are using wineyes, you will find somewhere to do a lift click, if you do that, the hotkeys will come alive. in foobar, when you open it, it will take you back to the last file you were playing at the point at which you switched off. the same if you press on the last file you were playing. i would have to uninstall foobar, and install it again, to find what it says when you come up one movement with the numbpad. brian.
Re: Foobar?
Casey wrote: Hi can someone please post how to make hot key or short cut keys for foobar. Open the Preferences dialog with Control+P. Press K to get to Keyboard Shortcuts in the tree view. You'll then see the following controls: - A list of defined hotkeys and their actions; - Add/Remove buttons; - a tree view of actions you can assign hotkeys to divided into categories plus an edit field to filter these actions; - a hotkey field where you press the keys you want to be assigned; and - a Global hotkey check box which controls whether the hotkey should take effect when outside the foobar2000 window. To add a new hotkey, for example X to play as in Winamp: 1. Activate the Add new button. 2. Shift+Tab back to the list of defined hotkeys and you should be focussed on the new entry you've just added. Depending on which screen reader you're using, you should hear something like: not set; Global: no; Type: not set; Action: not set Every time you press the Add new button, the newly added unassigned entry is focussed automatically in the list so you don't need to repeat this step for every ke you add once you've got to grips with the layout of the Keyboard Shortcuts screen. 3. Tab past the Add/Remove buttons and the filter box and in the tree view of assignable actions, navigate to: [main] Playback. Alternatively you can type playback in the filter box and then select Play. 4. Tab once to the hotkey field — this field isn't correctly labelled so you will actually hear a description of the chosen action, in this case the description will be: Starts playback. 5. Press the letter X. 6. Activate the OK button to close Preferences or the Apply button if you want to add more hotkeys. 7. When you've added all the hotkeys you want, add something to your playlist and try them out. Hint: there are a lot of actions by default, and any plug-ins you install can also add actions to foobar2000. This allows you to create a very powerful keyboard layout. For example, unlike in Winamp, you can add different hotkeys to jump back and forward by different lengths of time. One other thing to keep in mind: Unlike Winamp, foobar2000 actually has a pretty standard, accessible user interface, and you will need to use the arrow keys to navigate your playlists, the media library if you choose to use it, etc. Thus, it's best not to assign any actions to these. HTH. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes
RE: Foobar?
Hi James, Thanks for these very helpful hints. I've got three more questions, though: Is it possible, like in Winamp, to set a hotkey to jump to a certain time, like pressing ctrl+j in Winamp? I'd also like to know weather there are keys for moving forward and backward in a track, which would be the left and right arrow key in Winamp. And another question: Is it possible to save the settings i.e. the assigned short keys and load them into another version of Foobar on another machine? Thanks and take care, Alexandra Thanks -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of James Scholes Sent: Friday, March 07, 2014 6:04 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Foobar? Casey wrote: Hi can someone please post how to make hot key or short cut keys for foobar. Open the Preferences dialog with Control+P. Press K to get to Keyboard Shortcuts in the tree view. You'll then see the following controls: - A list of defined hotkeys and their actions; - Add/Remove buttons; - a tree view of actions you can assign hotkeys to divided into categories plus an edit field to filter these actions; - a hotkey field where you press the keys you want to be assigned; and - a Global hotkey check box which controls whether the hotkey should take effect when outside the foobar2000 window. To add a new hotkey, for example X to play as in Winamp: 1. Activate the Add new button. 2. Shift+Tab back to the list of defined hotkeys and you should be focussed on the new entry you've just added. Depending on which screen reader you're using, you should hear something like: not set; Global: no; Type: not set; Action: not set Every time you press the Add new button, the newly added unassigned entry is focussed automatically in the list so you don't need to repeat this step for every ke you add once you've got to grips with the layout of the Keyboard Shortcuts screen. 3. Tab past the Add/Remove buttons and the filter box and in the tree view of assignable actions, navigate to: [main] Playback. Alternatively you can type playback in the filter box and then select Play. 4. Tab once to the hotkey field this field isn't correctly labelled so you will actually hear a description of the chosen action, in this case the description will be: Starts playback. 5. Press the letter X. 6. Activate the OK button to close Preferences or the Apply button if you want to add more hotkeys. 7. When you've added all the hotkeys you want, add something to your playlist and try them out. Hint: there are a lot of actions by default, and any plug-ins you install can also add actions to foobar2000. This allows you to create a very powerful keyboard layout. For example, unlike in Winamp, you can add different hotkeys to jump back and forward by different lengths of time. One other thing to keep in mind: Unlike Winamp, foobar2000 actually has a pretty standard, accessible user interface, and you will need to use the arrow keys to navigate your playlists, the media library if you choose to use it, etc. Thus, it's best not to assign any actions to these.

re foobar for alexandra
Hi alexandra, i don't know of any way to jump to a particular position, but if you have a file playing, the left and right arrows will move you forward and back the file. be careful, if you get to the end of the file, you can't go back with the arrow keys, but will have to start again with letter c. brian.

And another question: Is it possible to save the settings i.e. the assigned short keys and load them into another version of Foobar on another machine? Yes it is. If you're running an installed copy of foobar2000, you will find a file called Core.cfg in %appdata%\foobar2000\configuration (paste this into the Run dialog to open the folder). If you copy this file into the same location on another computer, all your foobar2000 settings, including keyboard shortcuts, will take effect on that computer. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes

brian parker wrote: if you have a file playing, the left and right arrows will move you forward and back the file. This is not the default behaviour in a new installation of foobar2000. The left and right arrow keys will only perform this function if you set them up that way in Preferences as I described in an earlier email, otherwise they will do nothing. As I also pointed out in the same message, mapping the arrow keys to functions like this is not recommended if you wish to use the media library as you will need to use them to navigate through your music collection. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes

Re: Foobar?
I was offered the chance to be a playlist manager for an Internet radio station, and I need a program which will merge the tracks on a CD into a continuous track without pauses. I was told that Foobar can do that. I've been using Winamp for 14 years, but I don't think it can do that, so I need to use Foobar, or something else that will merge tracks into a continuous file.

Re: Foobar?
Not sure if it's worth mentioning too, with it's defaults, you've got a lot of extra information shown on the screen which isn't super necessary as just a player. It's possible to slim it down, to one playlist, and a statusbar, which shows the time you've progressed through a file, but removing some of the other stuff isn't the most accessible thing in the world. I'm using NVDA though, so perhaps it's more friendly with windoweyes, but once you've got it looking like you want, it's really an awesome player. Take care. Blessings.

Hi can someone please post how to make hot key or short cut keys for foobar. So you can have keys for stop and play and pause and all of that just like win amp.

I'm not teaching it, I don't have the patience, but I've been using Foobar2000 since 2006 and it is, bar none, the most powerful yet lightest weight audio player available for Windows. Why do you want Foobar2000? First, you can taylor the interface to you, particularly in that you can have several different playlists open at once. If you want to be able to have a playlist containing all your favorite internet radio stations and another where you open things from Windows Explorer, you can do that. Foobar2000 also has best of breed support for regioned files. If you find yourself with a multi-regioned file, you actually get to see the regions like a playlist. This is beautiful for Ogg Vorbis internet radio broadcasters like myself, who use the Oddcast/Edcast/Altacast archiving ability, which does create a file with all those regions. The recall is amazing. Speaking of streaming, I don't know of any better player for streaming audio. Winamp has nothing on Foobar, because Winamp doesn't even come close to just how robust Foobar2000 is at streaming without buffering. If you're listening to a stream with Foobar2000 and it's buffering, then you can be sure that it's the stream's fault or your connections. Not Foobar's. That's just some of the reasons you guys should actually consider Foobar. On 9/25/2013 5:10 PM, Steve Pattison wrote: This class will be held online at www.vipconduit.com. Regards Steve.

You will have to find a web site with a link that says something about playig it with a media player. Some may have different links for different media players. find one for Winamp or a general media layer. While on the link hit the applications key and select copy shortcut and hit enter. now go to Fubar and hit control + u and paste the link there and hit enter.

Re: making foobar more accessible?
foobar2000 is perfectly accessible. However, it does not come with many keyboard shortcuts configured out of the box. You will need to set them up in Preferences - Keyboard Shortcuts. You can also set your status bar to show information such as time elapsed, time remaining and audio bitrate, so scripts aren't really needed.

Re: making foobar more accessible?
Hi. I will add that you can even customize the columns you see in the playlist. The title bar to only display the info you want and many other things. Not to mention with the keyboard preferences you can access every command foobar has to offer. The media library is also accessible and completely customizable. The biggest advantage I feel foobar 2000 offers is the ability to have multiple playlists open at the same time, as well as copy and paste between them. As someone who does a radio show it comes in handy. My normal setup is like this: I have tv shows on 1 tab, streaming radio links in tab 2, a few beatles albums in 3, and a general music for cleaning the hous or whatever in playlist 4. I open foobar and they're all there waiting. It is beautiful! bb To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

Hello my friend, I want to know about foober. Is it any new software.

Among other things, they provide the ability to set multiple time markers for an audio track you are playing, as well as commands for having JAWS speak the elapsed, remaining and total time of an audio track. Essentially, they provide Foobar 2000 with some of the functionality available in the JAWS scripts for Winamp. The scripts are for JAWS versions 12 and 13, but should also be compatible with JAWS 11 and earlier versions at least as far back as 9. However, I can't make any promises as I have only tested them on JAWS 12 and 13. The scripts can be downloaded from http://www.jfwscripts.cjb.net For any Winap users checking out the scripts, please note that while many of the JAWS commands are the same as in Winamp, there are some minor differences in order to accomodate the Foobar UI.

Re: More about the JFW Foobar scripts from Andrew Hart.
If it's Foobar 2000 it's another one of those Media Management programs like Winamp or iTunes. Quite accessible and like Winamp supports numerous plugins.

advice for making foobar accessible with window-eyes
Ok I know I posted about this over 2 years ago and never got any responses. So I'll pose it again and see if anyone chomps at the bit. I love foobar 2000 and I want to do some podcasts on it. However, window-eyes seems to be the only screen reader with which I cannot access the main feature of foobar. Very strange since window-eyes is usually the best at this compared to the rest anyway... Here's the thing, everything in foobar is standard you have a tab control across the top which is for your playlists. Then you have the list view of your playlist with columns just like any other listview. I've tried reclassing the listrview custom control as listview and listbox and nothing seems to work. I might try making my own script which could be interesting, but I'm sure it can be done because it's really not a complex window at all. That's why I'm so baffled at why this doesn't work out-of-the-box. So, if anyone has any suggestions or comments, please send them along.\ thanks for reading and letting me ramble bb Brett Boyer Audio Production and voice over http://brettboyer.voices.com Brett Boyer's Big Bag of Goodies!

Re: advice for making foobar accessible with window-eyes
Hi I find this hard to believe. You mean when you look at a playlist in foobar2000 you can use your up and down arrow keys and listen to all items spoken? I find that hard to believe. If so, you're the first one ever who has not had this problem. Maybe we are using it differently or something. bb To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
foobar and assigning keys for stop and play and things like that
Hi I would like to give foobar 2000 a try for playing MP3 files and the like. But I would like to be able to have it be kind of like win amp. Where you can stop and play and have some control over those features and even a pause feature would be nice as well. So how do you make this happen?

Re: foobar and assigning keys for stop and play and things like that
Have you gone in and set up your hot keys in FooBar yet? Here's a post that was sent to this list a little while ago with some instructions on how to set up hot keys in FooBar. It's a bit tedious, but if you take the time, you can get FooBar to do pretty much what you want! Original Message Subject: Fw: Tips on using Foobar 2000 Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2011 22:54:59 -0600 From: Brett Boyer bboyer...@gmail.com Reply-To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org This was a message sent from a year or two ago by Christopher. He explains the process quite well. Read on! bb - Original Message - From: Christopher Chaltain To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org To set up a keyboard short cut, you can do the following: 1) Start FooBar2000 and use control-p to bring up Preferences. 2) Arrow down to Keyboard Shorcuts. 3) If you tab over about 5 times, you'll end up on the list of the keyboard shortcuts already defined. Arrowing down this list will select the different keyboard shortcuts and give you the chance to edit them. 4) Probably the first thing you want to do is tab over once more to the Add New button. clicking on this button will add a keyboard shortuct to your list of keyboard shortcuts with none of the values set. 5) Shift-tab back to the list of keyboard shortcuts and arrow down to the bottom of the list. You should hear an entry that has three values not set. Make sure you do this step or you could potentially be editing a shortcut you didn't intend to change. I'm speaking from experience here. 6) Tab over about three times and you'll end up on the list of all of the functions you could associate with a shortcut key. For example, you'll have options like volume up, volume down, seek ahead by 30 seconds and seek back by 2 minutes. This list is huge, so you can tab over twice to the filter field and type in something like seek or volume to get just those items that have that string in them. After entering a string in the filter field, shift-tab twice to get back to the subset of functions containing just that string. 7) Select the function you want to associate with a shortcut key and tab over once. This is where it gets a little tricky. You'll hear a more detailed description of the function you selected, but you're really in an edit field where you're going to choose the key you want to associate with this function. Be careful here, if you hit the space bar than the space bar will be associated with whatever function you selected. Suppose you chose the function volume mute and then you associated the space bar with this function. Now whenever you hit the space bar in FooBar2000, the volume will be muted, even when you're typing in the title of a track. FooBar2000 will warn you when you try to associate a common place key, such as up, down, left, right, space, ..., with a function. 8) There's a box where it you can make this a global key. I haven't used this option, but I assume this will let you use that keyboard shortcut even when FooBar2000 doesn't have the focus. Again, be careful here. 9) After setting up a shortcut key you can then arrow over to the list of shortcut keys to change or review anything you've done. Once you have the keys set up you want then just tab over to the Close button and you're done. 10) After you've set up some keys, like seek ahead, seek back, volume up, volume down, ..., go ahead and give them a spin. If you don't like them, you can always go back and change them. One thing I haven't taken the time to do is figure out how to have those keys passed straight through to FooBar2000. So for example, I'll often have to use insert-3 in JFW to have the next key passed through to FooBar2000. I hope this helps. If anyone has any other specific questions, just ask. -- Christopher (CJ) chalt...@gmail.com On 21/12/11 11:20, Casey wrote: Hi I would like to give foobar 2000 a try for playing MP3 files and the like.

Re: Foobar or VLC?
Hi! You could try gom player too which works with screenreaders. It will also play a variety of formats. /A JM Casey skrev 2011-10-29 02:28: Hey Dave. Thanks for the response. Apparently VLC has many different view options and at least something should work. But I'm only going on hearsay really. I'm mostly having trouble with AC3 content in winamp, and mkv files that will play but won't jump properly (IE, can't really fast forward or rewind effectively).

Re: Foobar or VLC?
Hi I have just installed foobar 2000 and when I go and play a file with it. I have this play list window open and not just a foobar window like you would in winamp. also you have to always go in the menus to get it to stop and play and how do you make it so you can do that stuff while you are playing a file instead of having to go threw the menus to do this? Also how do you adjust the volume while you are playing a file in this program? Casey On 10/29/2011 4:03 AM, Anders Holmberg wrote: Hi!

Re: Foobar or VLC?
NOt sure, but I'll look into it. Not only do you apparently not have to be in the menus to control the programme, you can do that from within any window if you set up hotkeys...however so far I'm only going by what I've been told and I haven't had time to investigate as yet. - Original Message - From: Casey cwoll...@wi.rr.com To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Saturday, October 29, 2011 9:46 AM Subject: Re: Foobar or VLC?
