Since my reinstall of Windows 7, I can't get this one to work... When I try to sync I get this error message: http://spunit.tk/x/scrn3.png.

Anyone who knows what I'm doing wrong?

Anyone got foodop running w/ iOS5 yet? Not sure if it is the update or the fact that it reformatted my ipod touch and reconfigured everything?

Any major iOS update is going to screw with 3rd party software like foo_dop, which is of course completely unsupported by Apple.
It's really advisable to steer clear up these updates until musicmusic works out how to make it work - which could potentially be ages if the syncing mechanism has changed as well as the database structure.

That experimental 0.6.9.7 update is downloadable, but I doubt it has anything to do with iOS5.
Check out MediaMonkey's site - they usually work hard on syncing with the new iOS/iTunes versions, and they haven't got syncing working with iOS5 yet.

Yea frog, it was a moment of weakness that I clicked install on it - I'm not sure what I was thinking because there is nothing I really care about in the new version and now I'm stuck with it and without Fb2k. I just expected to see some others and was worried maybe it was just me.

I'm sure he's either working on it now or will be working on it soon. This has to be one of the most popular foobar plugins. No need to repeatedly ask if he's working on it.

In the meantime, if you're stuck without music on your iPhone, http://www.audiogalaxy.com/ is awesome. You basically run a small program on your computer, and then you can access your entire music collection via 3G or WiFi. It'll also scrobble to Last.fm. They have a premium upgrade that allows you to download songs to the iPhone in case you're somewhere where you don't have internet access. It works really well.


Just quoting this for those of you running iOS 5. Who knows when foo_dop will be updated, but you can use this app to get access to all your music under iOS 5. iOS 5 is awesome and absolutely worth the upgrade over iOS 4.

Well...running Vista Pro with iTunes 10.5 installed and Foobar2000 v1.1.8 with foo_dop v 0.6.9.7, Foobar synchs with iPod Touch 4G with iOS5; songs show up on the Touch after ejecting/re-plugging the iPod in.  But no artwork...
Was that a 1 or a 0?

Hey musicmusic,


first of all;
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for foo_dop!

I f***ing hate iTunes and with foobar and foo_dop I can manage my music so much better...


Just yesterday I received my shiny new iPhone 4S with iOS5 and now it seems I have to use iTunes if I want to put some music on it.
Is there anything I can do to help you develop foo_dop for iOS5 / iPhone 4S?
I have the following hardware to test on:

iPod touch 3G (iOS5)
iPod touch 4G (iOS 4.3.3, jailbroken)
iPhone 4S (iOS5)

If you need some test or anything else (besides the actual hardware) I'd be happy to help!


Cheers, NinjaN

musicmusic,
I also am ready to participate in testing new versions or any other way that can help the development of foo_dop.

I've got an iPhone 4 with iOS 5

Hi musicmusic,

I've been trying to find the solution to my problem in this forum or elsewhere on the internet, but I couldn't find anything. My problem is that I would like the show notes of a podcast to show up on the ipod after the album art like it does if I use iTunes. I tried adding the show notes to the COMMENT field or making a SUBTITLE field but neither works. I am using version 0.6.9.7 of foo_dop, version 1.1.8 of foobar2000, and a 5th generation video ipod (30 GB).

Putting them in the lyrics tag should work.

I'm getting the "Failed to locate function AMDeviceNotificationGetThreadHandle" notification when I open foobar, and it won't detect my iPod Touch.

I have NOT updated to iOS 5.0. Syncing was working fine until this notification popped up. iTunes version is 10.5.0.142.

Suggestions?

For now, install the previous version of itunes. For me fb2k often crashes on start just after this MessageBox is displayed

I tried putting the show notes into the lyrics tag but it still didn't work. Do I need to do anything after I send the file to my ipod or change something in the preferences?

I also hastily upgraded to the latest (10.5) iTunes (Windows 7 x64), giving me the "Failed to locate function AMDeviceNotificationGetThreadHandle" error.

Removing iTunes (including the 3 additional "Apple ..." installed program entries) and installing 10.4.1 again (available from here), as well as deleting the iTunes metadata folder under "My Music" has fixed everything and not resulted in any further problems.

And "check for updates automatically" has now been disabled in the iTunes preferences!

Hey there,


I don't mean to be rude at all but I have to ask this straight out:
Does anybody know if musicmusic is working on foo_dop for iOS5 at all?

He doesn't seem to have posted in the last few weeks, so I really don't know if he's working (better yet progressing) on foo_dop...


Anybody here care to enlighten me?
I'd hate to have to switch to iTunes!

foo_dop causes the "running" file in foobar to remain after foobar has been closed. This is really annoying! Please fix this error. I've just fixed the error on my own machine, it comes from the option in Mobile Devices tag.

Ok, I've got bug to report:

Everytime I add songs using foo_dop, my ipod audiobook library is messed up (witch I added in iTunes since I can't add audiobooks properly in foo_dop...). Messed up = every book is broken into seperate files and these files are seperate books now.

Again, I have to ask:
Is this component still maintained?

To me it seems like musicmusic has abandoned it. He didn't answer any question here and didn't post since Oct. 12...
I just want to know if waiting for foo_dop is worth it or if I have to switch to an alternative.

I don't want to sound too negative, I LOVE foo_dop. But at the moment I can't put music on my iPhone 4S.

musicmusic, if you read this:
I just want an answer, not even a ETA. Simply "Yes, I'm still developping foo_dop for iOS5, ready when it's done" (yes, you may go the "Duke Nukem forever" route, just not as long) is enough ;-P

I tried this, it didn't work for me
A couple of days ago, my sister installed the new iTunes on my computer, and since then, I have been getting the "Failed to locate function AMDeviceNotificationGetThreadHandle" error.
I tried the following things:
-reinstalling the older 10.4.1 iTunes with your above instructions
-updating foobar
-updating foo_dop

None seem to work, still get the error. Can't access my iPod

Just playing with this tonight, thought I'd share my experiences.

I have an iPhone 3GS and I updated to iOS 5.0 (9A334), which I regret. Should have stuck with 4.3.5, or whatever it was.

Anyways I was having that error that was mentioned previously, AMDeviceNotificationGetThreadHandle, and downloading the latest version of foo_dop and dropping it into the foobar/components folder worked for me.

I loaded the current contents of the phone in foobar, and removed them, since I so happened to want all new music on my phone. I then proceeded to put new music on. My phone still showed the old contents, which I had deleted. I restarted the phone and still the old contents were shown. It must be that Apple has changed something about the way they're storing or accessing the music database.

However, when I opened iTunes (10.5.0.142) and pressed "Sync", my phone seemed to rebuild the database and all my new music was there. I don't ever have any of the "options" checked in the iPhone summary page in iTunes, and I don't have any songs in my iTunes database.

So, to recap:

1. Removed all songs from phone in foobar
2. Added new music in foobar
3. Restarted phone
4. Started iTunes 10.5.0.142
5. Pressed "Sync" in iTunes
  - Options all unchecked:
      - don't open itunes when this iphone is connected
      - don't sync with this iphone over wifi
      - don't sync only checked songs and videos
      - etc...
  - My local iTunes library is empty

I'm not sure which of these steps are necessary as I haven't tried repeating this scenario. But, it worked for me!

Good luck.

I can confirm this as working.
Add music from within foobar, start iTunes, push "sync"...

Just tried this on my iPhone 4S and one "normal" album and one compilation. All the tags (and mappings in foo_dop) seem to be OK, just the covers are missing...

Double Post since I can't edit...

Just tried this with 3,000+ songs (17,4 GiB)... Syncing unfortunately didn't help here... My music just stayed under "other"... ;-(
