foobar2000 mobile / Trouble fully uninstalling FB2K mobile 1.41 (Android)
Last post by Destroid -I had installed FB2K mobile 1 41 over an existing 1.31 (Android 13 device), and there was an issue with very choppy and stagnant scrolling on the file selection screen. After numerous attempts with clearing data and clearing cache and many reboots after uninstalling 1.41 and reinstalling 1.31, the stagnant scrolling still exists with the older 1.31 version. Very unexpected!
Most notable is the other symptom of the 1.41 application icon is not getting overwritten by the dark theme 1.31 icon, which 1.41 seems to only have a light theme icon in the application tray. I concluded that the uninstalling of 1 41 was not total (whether this is an issue with the OS or FB2K itself is not clear).
Note that no other applications have suddenly exhibited up/down scrolling choppiness.
Thanks and happy holidays!

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_mpv - Video Player component based on mpv
Last post by KthugS -foobar2000 - display - albumart - I use it by specifying the back cover, artist, and disc as the gif file I want.
The gif plays perfectly.
Inserting a gif artwork file into a flac file also works perfectly.
foobar2000 x64 has been released, but there is only one reason why I don't use the x64 version!
because foo_mpv only supports x32.
It's one of the components that made me use and love foobar2000.

Vinyl / Re: Trying to Turn Stereo Audio to Mono
Last post by fooball -So I don't need that device at all and can accomplish the same effect of having a native mono track with Audacity's "Mix Stereo Down to Mono" effect?Yup.
Quote
Would the "Mix Stereo Down to Mono" feature in the "Tracks->Mix" menu work identically?Probably, just try it. You'll see if the result is in excess of 0dB on the waveform display, so then you can simply normalise. When you export, make sure you choose mono.

Vinyl / Re: Trying to Turn Stereo Audio to Mono
Last post by Damned536 -If this is truly mono, then it really doesn't matter whether you take L+R or L or R as your signal....
You could do this in hardware by resistively mixing the L and R into a mono signal, or record the stereo pair and then simply sum them in something like Audacity (which would be my tool of choice for this kind of thing).
So I don't need that device at all and can accomplish the same effect of having a native mono track with Audacity's "Mix Stereo Down to Mono" effect?
There is now a "mono" button on the Export window.
But it's done by summing so to prevent clipping, run the Amplify effect with the new peak set to -6dB before exporting.
Would the "Mix Stereo Down to Mono" feature in the "Tracks->Mix" menu work identically?

General Audio / Uploading Foobar2000 CSV files to Libib or Librarika?
Last post by djanssen -Libib and Librarika are two online utilities for documenting and tracking book collections. Up to a certain volume of books, magazines, journals, etc.., the services are free. Libib.com has an option to include collections other than books like movies, music, and videogames. The have a CSV template to expedite uploading collections (rather than adding items individually), but their CSV format doesn't make much sense for a music collect. For example, these are the headings for each column:
title | creators | description | upc_isbn10 | ean_isbn13 | number_of_discs | tags | notes | group | price | added | publisher | publish_date | length_of | copies | call_number | ddc | lcc | rating | review | review_created | status | began_date | completed_date
I've included their "libib_music_import_template.csv" template and included the link here.
Here's an example of one album added via its UPC code - see screen capture image.
The hope here is to have a readily accessible inventory of music, and from there perhaps leverage the other tools Libib offers. Librarika has a similar utility, but I've not explored it in any detail.
The Text Tools preferences could be set up to match the fields being requested by Libib, but many of those either don't exist or don't apply, e.g.: UPC, call_number, ddc, lcc, or rating. Libib also misses data like bit rate, genre, sample rate, and so on.
Is this trying to fit a square peg into a round hole? Is there some other way to get the same result - a cloud-based inventory of the music saved locally by Foobar2000?
Thanks in advance.

Support - (fb2k) / VST 2.x/3.x Adapter 0.11.10 with iZotope Ozone 9 and 11 doesn't work properly
Last post by Gadgety -I believe this is due to changes they made rather than due to Foobar2000 or the VST2.x/3.x adapter. iZotope's reply is it may be due to that their software is tested on Windows 10 and 11, and there's no testing or official support for Windows7 OS, or alternatively that it is somehow due to the way the Foobar2000 with the VST2.x/3.x adapter is structured. They have never claimed that it would work in Foobar2000. They also say they are not aware of the problems I have experienced by any other users in DAWs used in music production settings. Here goes a description of the problem.
Ozone is structured in a series of module plug-ins, where each module processes audio in a specific way. In the latest version there are 18 modules. Ozone contains a mother of a module, the Mothership, which hosts all the processing modules in a customizable signal chain. It is this module I place inside of the VST2.x/3.x adapter. This module also contains some, but not all, of the functions that are problematic within the VST2.x/3.x adapter. The Mothership contains among other functionality global toggle switches for bypassing all the modular processing, turning off stereo and instead summing to mono, as well channel swapping, essentially a polarity switch.
A signal chain inside the Mothership can consist of very few or all the modules. The order can be swapped by drag and drop. Each module has a button for turning it on or off without removing it from the chain, and a Solo button where all the other modules are excluded from the signal chain, and you just hear the processing from that module. All modules also contain a Delta switch which then plays back only the changes the module incurs on the sound.
I'm going to exemplify the problem when running Ozone 9 or 11 in the VST 2.x/3.x Adapter in Foobar2000. The actions are identical in v2.0 or v1.6.16 x64.
In Ozone 8 when toggling Sum to mono on in the Mothership it immediately sums to mono. To get stereo back toggle Mono off. Sound turns stereo instantaneously.
Here is a description of how Sum to mono now works.
I first have to turn on Sum to mono, it is immediately shown as mono in the Imager module which displays the sound visually in a vectorscope. However, no change is registered in the sound, out of the speakers/headphones.
To effectuate the change in sound in addition to selecting Sum to mono I have to either turn on or turn off one of the modules in the signal chain (any module). Only then is Sum to mono effectuated in the sound. I can also effectuate it by toggling the bypass button on and off.
This is an additional step compared to previously. It's the same if I want to turn stereo back on. Hence changes are not immediate, and sometimes it complicates the working procedure.
Channel swapping also requires these additional toggles in both Ozone 9 and 11.
The same goes for the Delta function. In order to effectuate, I have to select Delta, nothing in the audio changes, then switch on or off ANY module in the signal chain in order to effectuate the Delta function in the sound. Then when I want to switch it off and return to the sound, the same procedure applies.
Alternatively I discovered that I can turn these functions on by clicking on the bypass button twice: Click Delta; Click Bypass TWICE to turn Delta on. To turn it off, toggle Bypass once. Toggle Bypass again to turn Delta on again, but one time is now enough.
Ozone also offers analog iir filters or digital fir filters in the Equalizer module. Swapping between these isn’t effectuated unless one of the modules is turned off and then on again.
Finally, the functionality of bypassing all processing in other modules, the ”S” for Solo button where you only listen to the processing from one single module, a button available in each module, doesn’t work at all. It has no effect whatsoever.
