What is it that you don't like about foobar? (just curious..)

Personally, I'm not a fan of iTunes (and I don't have an iPod anyway) or the 'media library' type applications. I more or less have it all sorted on my hard drive, so I just pick from there.

itunes is a pos and isnt even needed for ipods.

oh and the things i dont like about foobar:
too basic
not very intuitive interface
horrible media library code
mouse action from media library

thats it really...but i use it anyways. winamp now takes up 30MB of ram...too much. foobar when active takes 12 or so and 1.5 when minimized to tray. i removed winamp 3-4 months ago.

i've spent the time properly tagging my music, so i find itunes playlist very useful. if i'm in the mood for 80s music, or house, or acid. click on th sorting column and its done. i don't think its better than winamp and i know winamp has similar functionality. I think its a nice alternative and i like the simplicity of its interface.

I tried using Wiamp and the time it's not busy crashing, it's doing something else wrong. I just use Windows media player, never had a problem with it.

my order is Winamp (very easy to use) > Foobar2000(if you spend time customizing it, wow, it'll look fucking awesome) > iTunes (able to organize music through folders as well as playlist)

The problem is the way Winamp/Foobar enters the filename of the tracks on my playlist. I am using torents now and i am downloading alot of albums.

I have them saved to My Music like this for example...

10 Years - 2005 - The Autumn Effect (Folder Title)

Then inside the folder i have the tracks laid out like this...

01 - Waking Up
02 - Fault Line

When i enqueue all the albums into Winamp/Foobar they come up like this...

0225. 10 Years - 2005 - The Autumn Effect - 01 - [The Autumn Effect #01] Waking Up

And sometimes it doesnt even bring up the artist or album it will just come up as '01 - Waking Up' etc etc

Some are even worse with all strange characters in them.

I want it to come up just as i have saved it in My Music. Is this possible?

Hope you understand that!

ROFL your complaining about something that is EASILY changed. just find the area that talks about the playlist. then find the part where it has the %T or whatever type variables. you can have it show whatever you want.
