Support - (fb2k) / Re: Playlists Get Zero'd Out After a Library Search
Last post by Revup67 -
Are you claiming just using search overwrites playlists? Are you certain you don't hit enter after typing, that would send the results to selected playlist.
Note that if you overwrite a playlist by accident, you can hit Ctrl+Z to undo the damage. One doesn't need to manually save FPL files because of fear of misclicks.
The ellipsis (...) button at the end of input field allows you to send the files to a new playlist or to a new autoplaylist. If you have a habit of hitting enter accidentally, you can try if enabling 'Library viewer selection' playlist at Preferences -> Media Library makes the search work in a way you like.
Thanks for your response. Here are the answers to your post:  Yes, I am pressing Enter on the keyboard after typing in the Search criteria. This Zero's out the entire Playlist (which was / is currently selected).  CTRL + Z does not undo this action of which I have had success with but under different circumstances.  The Playlists are being Saved as I am unable to recover any playlist after the Enter is pressed to invoke such an Action. Had I not done this, it would be hundreds of hours wasted in creating specific playlists.
Thanks for the Tip on Preferences | Media Library - I am not seeing any such option in this section of version 2.14. I would surely give this a try. Can you kindly be more specific as to where this checkbox (?) is located or other insight to enable such a feature?  Thanks

Opus / Re: xHE-AAC : The Death of OPUS?
Last post by polemon -
It'll be a while when Youtube and stuff puts FLAC bitstreams in their videos. If you scan the available codecs it's all just Opus and AAC-LC.

No one in music sharing cares about lossy formats anymore (and rightfully so). I download FLACs and encode them to my favorite bleeding edge lossy format of choice to save space. And if I were OCD obsessed with archival, I'd just keep my whole library as FLAC because lossy is called lossy for a reason.
Additionally, people with a "decent enough" music library and whatnot, tend to put on-the-fly re-encoding to a lossy format in place, such that they don't have to actually manage multiple versions of the same song, etc. Home automation stuff usually takes care of that around the home etc.

If I try to reload the panel, it happens again, it takes 1-2 minutes. Everything was fine before updating. The other error is for Playlist tools, I'll post there.
Without any more info, can't say anything. It seems like you have some kind of circular reference between some smart playlists. It just load a playlist which then tries to load another one, and it goes back and forth indefinitely.

I would need you to check that, and possibly sharing such problematic playlists, if any. While doing that is really stupid, I clearly did not add any kind of safeguard for such usage, so is technically possible to make Playlist A use B as source and viceversa. If that's the case, it's not really a bug but anyway I will forbid such usage.

There is something wrong on your installation. That's simply impossible.

EDIT: This is what happens when someone doesn't read the changelog..

- Buttons: changed filename for 'buttons_others_device_selector.js' to 'buttons_device_selector.js' and 'buttons_others_main_menu.js' to 'buttons_utils_main_menu.js'. Before updating, rename all instances of these names at '[foobar2000 profile]\js_data\buttons_XXXXX.json' with the new names. 'buttons_XXXXX.json' are all json button toolbar files.

I follow Semantic Versioning, so if you go from 3.7 (or lower) to 4.X... and people don't read the changelog, then it's a miracle things work as they should be. xd Since I'm stating some things have been removed or changed in a major version change.

Other Lossy Codecs / Re: Index tables for unofficial IMA ADPCM bit depths
Last post by C.R.Helmrich -
Why nobody answered this?
Because there are very few people on this planet reading this forum and knowing how a certain 40-year-old codec works.

Short answer: in audio and speech coding, logarithmic quantizers usually fit the (residual) audio data better than linear quantizers - many small values, few large values. You simply get better perofrmance.

Some of these links no longer work anymore. Kamedo2 gave me some of the samples and I just made a torrent out of the files I was able to obtain again. If anyone here wants to obtain the Kamedo2 samples, consider loading up this magnet link or the attached file in your torrent client to help me seed this so these samples won't disappear or link rot anymore.
