3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: Columns UI
Last post by josemescud -
Hi all, I have been trying to figure out for a fix for this for a while:
I use a combination of facets, esplaylist and columns ui and i have been trying to fix my sort order to display in order of date.
I tried changing the incoming filter incoming tracks in columns ui, no fix there.
I tried the "force sort" setting in esplaylist which works but then the play order does not follow.
I finally also got it to work by setting a custom sort order on the date column to %date% which works perfectly except the fact I have to click it everytime I change artist in facets.
I feel like there must be a way around this but im just not seeing it! ill attach a pic of my layout also and if you need anything else let me know! Cheers.
I stopped using EsPlaylist a long time ago.
Facets I never used.
Now I use foobar2000 64-bit.
I can only recommend that instead of Facets you install the "Album list panel" component that supports all the sorting you want.

Here is a basic script that you can adapt to your liking:

Code: [Select]
%artist% [-] |[%date%]. %album%$if(%discnumber%,|%disnumber%,) - $upper($ext(%_path%))|%tracknumber%. %title%)

I'm seeing a bug in Linux under WINE, and I understand that this may be a low priority to address, if at all. :) Perhaps it's something I can fix on my end by installing another library that other Linux users have encountered.

The problem is in the color selection dialog: the input boxes for the HSL and RGB values only permit two digits. They'll display the full initial value, but changing anything stops at two.
I have absolutely no way to replicate or test this. But I do know the implementation. The standard dialog has been extended with the alpha value and slider but anything else is standard Windows. The code that implements that dialog is Microsoft's and has not changed.

So I'd first look into similar bug reports on Wine, preferably those where the application extends the dialog.

Scientific Discussion / Re: SuperFast LAME multi-threaded MP3 encoder
Last post by enzo -
This topic didn't get much attention, and the Github repository was archived on December 11, 2020. Why, @enzo?
The SuperFast code was integrated into official fre:ac/BoCA releases and development continued there, so there was no need for a separate repository anymore. The SuperFast LAME code is here now.

As far as I understand, MP3 format, due to its design (the notorious reservoir of bits), does not favor multicore encoding, but you, describing the technical details, stated that it was possible without loss of quality. I encoded two WAV PCM files (44.1 kHz 16 bit stereo and 11025 Hz 16 bit mono) using SuperLame as follows: freaccmd.exe in.wav -e superlame.

The latter one failed.
There were some bugs fixed in the BoCA repo after the original repo had been archived. Current fre:ac seems to encode this file correctly.

Just discovered this thread and the renewed component (thank you!).

Wanted to give a shoutout to @fabiospark for the post @
https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,43044.msg914190.html#msg914190

I'm not sure I could have figured out the syntax for the word wrap function. Thanks for sharing your code!...
Hi Sancho, thank you for shouting me out!
I's so many years since I posted that (more than 8, in fact...)!
I'm glad I've been able to give back a tiny bit of all the help I've taken from this forum.
Have a nice day.

The problem is in the color selection dialog: the input boxes for the HSL and RGB values only permit two digits. They'll display the full initial value, but changing anything stops at two.

Then again, color selection dialogs in general seem wonky the way I have WINE set up; they often load with the wrong color value even off the DUI color settings. Yours seems different though, with the alpha value included.

Has anyone else encountered the like or troubleshot color dialogs in general? Perhaps there's a .NET library that clears it up on installation?

Setup
  • Debian-stable 12.5
  • WINE 9.7
  • default 64-bit wineprefix (this is my only app running with it)
  • wine-mono installed via wine configuration pop-up
  • gecko installed via wine configuration pop-up
  • gdiplus installed via winetricks
  • foobar2000_x64 v2.2 preview 2024-04-15
  • Default UI
  • Spectrum Analyzer 0.7.6.2

MP3 - General / Re: Resurrecting/Preserving the Helix MP3 encoder
Last post by Wombat -
@KevinB52379 maybe you have cooling problems and AVX(2) compiles cause throttling?
The problem occures also without the use of AVX versions.
I think we have a problem only with some AMD APUs. At least @KevinB52379 and @JoshuaChang use a Ryzen 4650g and a 5700g.
I already offered a x64 compile with a uncommon low optimization level -O1 and this didn't help.
So we must find out if it is maybe a system problem with for example a special version of the AMD chipset/graphics driver and why it does not happen with a lto compile that also uses the high optimization level -O3.
This may be something for coding experts and not for a noob like me.
I fear only @KevinB52379 and @JoshuaChang can find out directly at their PCs.

FLAC / Re: Multithreading
Last post by cid42 -
Flaccid only supports 16 bit wav/raw input as the wav formats are many and I never quite got the wav library working. But it should support arbitrary flac input (iirc), so a hack to encode any supportable wav would be pipe/convert to flac first. Not ideal but workable. Might revisit when flac gets a major update, for now just busy with other things.
