You can extend Foobar2000 functionality by increasing the information the player maintains. Installing the foo_playcount component allows Foobar to both keep track of additional data, and adds the following user available fields:
- Date and time a track was first played ~ %first_played%
- Date and time a track was last played ~ %last_played%
- The number of times a track has been played ~ %play_count%
- Date and time a track was first added to the Media Library ~ %added%
- Song rating ~ %rating%
Song Rating Playlist Display
The songs rating can now be displayed in a playlist viewer in two ways:
- On a 1 to 5 scale with %rating%
- Displayed as up to five stars, “★★★”, with %rating_stars%
- Displayed as five stars, “★★★☆☆”, with %rating_stars_fixed%
Note: This component should be installed at the same time as Foobar2000, if your goal is to have a complete play count history.

- Data can be imported from file tags or fields provided by other components.
- Ratings up to 10 are supported.
- You can customise how long you have to listen before a play count is incremented.

- First played, last played and added are all available as Unix timestamps.
- How records are bound to tracks can be configured in the
