FofR But Better – A modded skin for Foobar2000

fofr-but-better

I made my own personal mod of FofR, a really great skin for Foobar2000, the best audio player software out there.  I liked the design of the original, but found the fonts were a bit to small at 1920×1080 resolution so I changed them…then while I was already digging through the code I added a little button to download album art for the current playing song and fixed some minor graphical glitches that FofR has when viewed at such high resolutions. I might make some more changes, but I’m not sure what else I’d want to do with it yet, so here it is; version 0.1 of FofR But Better.

I’d recommend using version 0.9.5.2 of Foobar2000, as the newer versions broke much of the PanelsUI engine used to make this skin. You can find it here.

    Man this is awesome. I've a 1920x1200 desktop, I was searching for a high resolution skin and this is it!

    I've only one problem, when I open the player, it exit from the fullscreen view and stays in a little window, is there a way to not resize automatically the window player when opened?

    Thanks anyway, great skin.
  • I think the code that is resizing it is in the skin code somewhere...unfortunately I never did find it. I've been too busy with real life to look more at the code. Maybe when I get some time again I'll make an update that fixes that a few minor bugs I've found.
  • Instructions are in the zip file.
  • Confused
    How do I apply this again?
