Some info for those of you guys who likes and uses my foobar plugins.
1. foo_w7shell updated to version 0.2.9.1. Settings page is not legacy anymore, now it uses new apply/cancel features.
2. foo_touchremote won’t be published for some time. I have no wifi at the moment (my home router is partially broken), so unable to test the plugin. Anyway, I’m working on the library support and still planning to post an update until the end of January.
Also I’m going to use 1.0 SDK for foo_touchremote, but it would break compatibility with older foobar versions. So I’d like to ask if you really need that 0.9.x support? If you don’t, 0.9.x support will be dropped, so vote in the comments!

Hello people!
Many of you have probably updated to foobar 1.0 and noticed artwork configuration available. This is really cool, but API is a little different from the old one, so foo_w7shell couldn’t use benefits of new album art extractor.
I have also updated to the latest foobar version, so made a fix for the plugin and named it 0.2.9. You could get it at the download page, as usual.
It is built with the new SDK and works only on foobar 1.0 (or later). Those of you who is still on 0.9.x branch should use previous versions of the plugin.

Some time ago I’ve said there would be updates during New Year holidays. Well, that didn’t come true.
I have been moving to the new apartment and had no time to do something, even reading the e-mails was a problem.
Also I have a request to those of you who has a MacBook and a not-Touch iPod (i.e. Classic, Nano, etc.). Please post in the comments how does the player appear in the Mac OS X. Is it mounted to some directory (which exactly?) as a removable drive just like in Windows?

First public build. No library support, no search, possibly buggy

Well, this post actually is a test of a WordPress iPhone app Genius suggested me to try. And I think I like it!
BTW, the first alpha build of a foo_touchremote is almost here. There’s still a lot of things to do (it doesn’t even support a library yet), but there should be something to start with, right?..

Awesome. I have got another set of plugins to write for MS CRM, still working on its integration with HP PPM and writing a DRM license server for another project.
There’s almost no time even to live 
But there is some progress on foo_touchremote. I’ve managed to pair my own server with Apple’s client app and made a http processing engine based on mongoose (it seems to be the most adequate implementation of http server) sources. So the very first betas would appear soon.
Stay tuned.

iTunes has a brilliant feature to browse local library and control playback using iPhone and WiFi. The only thing is that I like foobar, not iTunes. The question is why not to use a free iPhone client to control it as well?..
So I’m starting a foo_touchremote project to make love between foobar and iPhone running Remote. Stay tuned!

This has nothing to do with Apple, iPhone, foobar or other stuff. Just relax and enjoy!

Just find three differences

You wanted Aero Peek and Flip3D? Well, you’ve got it.
Personally I think these features are useless for foobar. And a bit buggy:
- Image of the same size as thumbnail looks ugly in Flip3D (I have no idea why MS decided to show thumbnail instead of live preview there).
- Window must to be shown at least once to make Aero Peek working. It’s a common issue for any app.
- Too frequent painting of a live preview image drains a lot of CPU, so it is made not so “live” as it should.
- When window is maximized, there are some glitches with its frame size in Peek mode.
Blame MS for all that stuff
P.S. I’m still on RC, so someone should test it on RTM. I wanna to know if something changed.
