If you already switched, help you finding the feature you liked in WinampĪlso, even if you don't care about Winamp, this feature-to-component guide can be useful to find out how to achieve some features in foobar2000 (many of them are just the same in any mainstream media player.)īut of course the aim of foobar2000 is not to copy Winamp. Showing that if you switch from Winamp to Foobar2000, you won't lose many featuresĢ. MonkeyMote requires either a recent version of Winamp 5, foobar2000 1.3 or later, MediaMonkey 4, JRiver Media Center 16 or later (rebranded versions may not be supported) or AIMP2/AIMP3/AIMP4 running on Windows XP SP3 or later. PCM 16-bit PCM 8-bit (signed, unsigned) PCM 4-bit (signed. Quick list of codecs vgmstream supports, including many obscure ones that are used in few games.

ModPlug Tracker's successor (OpenMPT) is still in active development and there are OpenMPT input plugins for XMPlay, WinAmp and Foobar2000.

In preferences go to Display and click on Columns UI, in the Main tab under set-up click Import Configuration and double click the theme file you downloaded (Transparency.fcl) Open up Foobar2000 and press CTRL + P to open preferences, you'll need to do this every time as this theme hides options at the top.
So if you've already downloaded it I recommend doing so again : įirst off, download foo_ui_columns-1.4.1.fb2k-component and double click it while foobar is open to install it, it will ask you to restart after you apply, do so.Ĭlose Foobar2000 again and go to %appdata% it should take you to your roaming folder from there navigate to foobar2000 > user components, just dump everything from the user-components folder you've just downloaded in there or take the user-components folder and drag it into the foobar2000 folder, it will merge.
