Yes. GUI should change a lot.
ps you do probably post too many pics. You don't need a pic of *everything*. Just the more complex things that are hard to describe. I've probably posted only 20 pics in total over 3,000+ posts.

Then don't delete the foobargarym file until after you import the theme. Then you can delete it. Keep in mind I can't see the pics you are posting (yet).

Thanks for stayin' with me, Gary. I followed the 'IMPORT THEME' steps now. The foobar GUI has changed somewhat (I take it that's correct):





I am not going to 'IMPORT MUSIC LIBRARY' as yet because - well - I don't have any music! And I am not importing 'WMA' from my old external-HD. I can't wait till the day I wipe all them dodgy compressed mp3s off!

btw - I received a PM from Mr. Spoon (not sure what time it was sent) saying that a max. of 20 x PNGs can be uploaded before the moderating actions come into play. After which, you can upload another 20 x images, I guess. Probably all outlined in the forum 'guidelines' which I should read sometime!

Gary, No, I have not tried anything out yet as such. Only done the d/l and installing. Thanks.

Yes. All the downloaded files can be deleted. I assume you've done the import theme foobargarym step. Afterwards you can delete that downloaded file.

Re: Windows Media Player vs. Foobar/dBpa/VLC/Groove-Music

Gary, Cheers. I have extracted and placed the 'facets' dll. in the foobar 'components' folder:

Maybe I did it the long way, but I think it's OK. Thanks.

Re: Windows Media Player vs. Foobar/dBpa/VLC/Groove-Music

Youve already done that step (although you did it an alternative way) when you installed the facets component. Look in the directory location I gave you and make sure you see facets.dll file in the components folder. If you do, it's correct.

edit. I'm just guessing which step you are on. Can't see pic yet. But you can't break anything so no worries. Just keep following steps.

Hi, Not sure how to approach this one, please?

This is the one you said needs to be placed into the same folder as 'foobar' (x86). Cheers.

Can't see pic. But just follow the rest of my instructions. Nothing complicated.

Re: Windows Media Player vs. Foobar/dBpa/VLC/Groove-Music

Yes. Install then yes.

Gary, Thanks. I have just done the first one (I think it did it correctly?); it closed down foobar and then restarted it:

Hi Gary, I was about to make a start here, but was really not sure about the procedure, please. Do I just click 'INSTALL' (as per screenshot 1), and then just 'YES' (as per screenshot 2)? Thanks.

Yes. Install then yes.

Yes. This page is from a link provided on the foobar2000 components page.

Re: Windows Media Player vs. Foobar/dBpa/VLC/Groove-Music

JH, For me, I can view the PNGs as soon as they have been upoladed. But maybe that is because I am the OP/uploader? Paul

That's possible. Or it might be that the files download from your browser's temp files.
