Description
foo_webview2 is a foobar2000 component that exposes the Microsoft Edge WebView2 control as a UI element or panel. This is a fork of foo_uie_webview.
It takes an HTML file that receives notifications from and can interact with foobar2000. The panel can react to those notifications and adjust its output using JavaScript. In addition, a host object provides a number of methods and properties to interact with foobar2000 and the visualization stream can be accessed through a shared buffer.
Requirements
- foobar2000 v2.0 or later (32 or 64-bit).
- Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime (preinstalled in Windows 10 and 11).
