User_007 Thanks for testing! Cue support is underway and will be in the next release.

Layout editing works by editing the widget under the cursor and its parent splitter. If you remove a splitter, it will remove all of the widgets inside. I'll be putting out some documentation on this to make it clearer.

Window size should be remembered when storing from tray, so I'll look into that.

I've been using fooyin on my EndeavourOS install for about a month. I love it.

BruceElephant I would like to know if you would use fooyin (a foobar2000 clone) if it would be available in the Solus repositories.

YES, I would definitely use fooyin on my Solus laptop if it were available in the Solus repos!

brent Apologies for the late answer, I was away.

Thank you! But I only acted as per Solus team's guidelines. You see, when you post a package request they ask what kind of users (and how many) will use this package. I felt that starting this thread was the best way to find this information. : )

Usually is a sync Friday/Saturday depending on where you are. So just a little bit more. 😃

Ok, I installed this player and played with it for about 15 min.

This is my kind of player i.e. I don't need to add my whole music folder for it to create a library database. I can create playlists and drag any folders to it to play, nice 👍

I recreated my favorite layout (there is edit mode) where I have 3 panes: playlists list - playlist - big album cover art.
It was pretty easy.

  • I couldn't find settings how to change the font size
  • volume button is horrible
  • album cover art can't go bigger
  • I wish UI was more modern and minimal

Maybe I would make it my main music player if not Tauon, which looks more minimal but have a number of little things I can't live without today, for example - auto name playlist when adding files or middle click to add song to the queue..

I will keep it installed.

    Thanks for bringing us Fooyin.

    For all who can't wait with v0.5.1 can download the package from the unstable repo and install it from disc without switching the whole system to the unsable repo.
    But alsa-lib needs to update first to release 38.
    alsa-lib-1.2.12-38-1-x86_64.eopkg
    fooyin-0.5.1-3-1-x86_64.eopkg
