Support - (fb2k) / Unexpected Behaviour with Multi-Value Performer Tag in M4A Files
Last post by ongaku -
I have tagged some M4A files with Musicbrainz Picard. The Performer tag contains multiple values. Picard wrote all of the tags correctly, but foobar2000 only shows the last of the Performer values. I made a copy of one of the M4A files, wrote the Performer tag with foobar2000 and compared the files with AtomicParsley.

The only difference I can see is the case: "performer" vs "PERFORMER". Is this expected behaviour? (I should note that I'm using foobar2000 for Mac, latest preview version.)

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / foo_deaf looping + fadeout problem
Last post by Despair -
Having a small problem with the DEAF Module Decoder https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_deaf (I'm not sure if this counts as 3rd party since it's uploaded by Peter). I'm trying to convert Deus Ex's .UMX files (apparently they're basically .MOD files?) but I can't seem to get the conversion to do looping and fadeout as there appear to be no options for them in foo_deaf. There is an option for infinite looping under "Decoding", but then the file conversation never succeeds. There are loop and fadeout options for foo_dumb, in the old foobar, but these also fail to convert with loop and fadeout. They also have a silent section at the start of some tracks, which also converts. I'm not sure why, as foo_deaf does not have this.

Another option is the OpenMPT Module Decoder https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_openmpt54 (also by Peter) but this yields a sound that is very different from playback both in game and via foo_deaf/foo_dumb. It does convert with loops and fadeouts, but bizarrely, opening the resulting flac file in audacity showed the file as empty, despite it playing properly in foobar. I'm really not sure what to make of it...

Any ideas? I'd rather not resort to converting and manually adding loops via audacity.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_truepeak True Peak Scanner
Last post by darkflame23 -
Yes, thanks Case, it was my brain fart, sorry...

Is there a way to get the "LUFS" text removed from the end of the LUFS scan results/readouts? I just want the number as the LUFS text is already the Column header in my Playlist, and it takes up a lot of unneccesary room.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_truepeak True Peak Scanner
Last post by Case -
Like I said in the earlier post, you are not using the context command that scans for the clipping information. Historically this component only scanned True Peaks and optionally True Peaks and clipping info + peak positions (that's why there are the different context entries for them). Then feature requests popped up and I didn't want to fill the context menu with all the different modes, so all extra scan modes were toggles in the settings.

If you want the clipping info, you need to use the context command "Scan True Peaks and positions...".
