General - (fb2k) / Re: Easier way to Play All for an entire album?
Last post by yetanotherid -
Send to Current Playlist will automatically replace the contents of the current playlist (as opposed to Add to Current Playlist). You don't have to delete the existing contents first.
Sent to New Playlist will add the album (or selected items) to a new playlist for you.
Under "Media Library/Album List" in preferences you can choose whether sending items to a new or current playlist starts playback automatically.

In the same section in preferences you can configure double click and middle click mouse actions, so with the right combination of settings you could start playback of an album automatically after sending it to a new playlist, such as middle clicking on an album.

Foobar2000 is based on playlists though so anything you want to play has to be added to a playlist, but it's easy enough to configure it to send items to a new playlist and start playback automatically, then you can delete the playlist when you're done.

General - (fb2k) / Automatically adding tracks from hard drive once CD is loaded?
Last post by OddOttAllen -
Hi there, I've been using foobar for a couple of months now, but only recently started using it to play my CDs. I was just wondering if there was a way to automatically pull tracks from a hard drive and have it load along with the rest of the tracks on the CD?

Like, for example, let's say that a CD comes out but the streaming/digital purchases have a bonus track or two. I have the FLAC and want to have it come up alongside the other tracks so I can play the "complete" version of that album. Is there a way to do that without having to drag it in every time? Thanks in advance.

MP3 / Re: An MP3 encoder without a cutoff point

For me lame seems to show a different behavior for 48000 and 44100 than for other sampling frequencies. I generated a stereo sweep from 0.9 bandwidth to max at sampling frequencies: 48000, 44100, 32000, 22050, 16000 and 11025. Then I encoded them with "lame -b 32 --lowpass -1". Only 48000 and 44100 preserved the signal at the top:
