Most values were the same, peak timestamp if different, along with track and album peak.  Is this to be expeced?
Peaks being slightly different is expected with different resamplers. Highest peak position changing entirely was unexpected, I have never noticed that happening. Would be curious to see what goes on in the track in those positions that causes such shift.

You didn't mess up anything as long as you didn't include the quotation marks when you typed the preferred resampler name in advanced preferences. As Defender said, that's step is no longer needed for True Peak Scanner component but now that you have done it, all components that ask for (random) resampler will get SoX. That's good, so all components will get a very fast and high quality option.

I sent you the file in your messages that had 2 peak timestamps.  I didn't use the quotes, so I am all good there.  Thanks for this component!

MP3 - General / Re: Resurrecting/Preserving the Helix MP3 encoder

As far as I'm concerned, those builds should be plenty fine and can be called "stable".

There are further patches on the dev branch (Case's reworked progress printing, improved help messages, some safeguards against negative array indices in the encoder math), but nothing that invalidates the current builds.

Thanks once again! Can I just add that to the current pattern, or should I delete those and replace it with this? Am guessing add it?

If you don't mix tagged stuff with untagged stuff you can add it at the end, but since you organize albums in folders always (like I do) you can just replace the whole thing.

EDIT: Which is also the reason that I don't use subfolders for multicd albums.

When True Peak Scanner scans "...(as albums)" does it take the physical file system Folders into account, or is it only looking at the metadata/album tags? I have all my albums as separate folders, but not all of them are fully tagged. The ReplayGain Scanner has a "Scan as albums (by folders)" option which I always use when scanning a mass of albums in one go. Just wondering if this one does the same as I don't see an option for it.

In Advanced you can set album grouping pattern. In your case that would be:
$directory_path(%path%)

Other Lossy Codecs / Re: lossyWAV 1.4.2 Development (was 1.5.0)
Last post by Nick.C -
The bit removal process is carried out on each channel separately, using the calculated bits to remove value for each channel, and may (depending on whether too many new clips are encountered or whether any of the feedback [if selected] breaches limits) remove fewer bits than desired - shown in output as "bits lost". Noting that if --midside or --linkchannels have been selected then the bit removal process will be repeated for any channels where the actual bits removed is higher than the minimum for that codec block.

This would be further complicated if adaptive noise shaping was in use (which it is by default) as the filters are channel specific.

Hi,

Because of the rather bad foobar-x86 start and shutdown experience with multisource 0.5.6 enabled and not getting feedback on my bug report, I'm migrating to ESlyrics.
Great to see ESlyrics supports transparency so I can paint my own background and display my own art underneath ESlyrics.
I also like dragging lyrics to continue playing from the point I drag the lyrics too.

I've read this whole topic and have some questions.

1) Doubleclicking changes ESlyrics to fullscreen. The fonts/colors used in this mode are different from those I specified in Panel Preferences.
Where can I change behavior for doubleclick (I'm not interested in fullscreen lyrics), I'd rather open Search, Preferences or PanelPreferences. Or disable doubleclicking altogether.

2) How can I adjust offset other than entering a value in ms? In LS3 I can use my mousescrollwheel to adjust offset on the fly which is very convenient.

3) In LS3 I can use [%search_state%][ %search_progress%'%'] in fallback text to show progress upon searching for lyrics. Does ESlyrics have similar variables?

4) I noticed a lot of discussion about %album%. I typically use %album% like "Strangers in the Night [Live] [1999 UK 724352081028]" and strip this down to "Strangers in the Night" where needed. In ESlyrics I can enter the TF for artist and title, but not for processing %album%. Where can I do that?

5) I installed Sveakul's modified scripts for metallum and minilyrics, but so far did not get any hit for those two plugins even searching for the easiest stuff like for instance "Van Halen - Little Dreamer" (which of course is found via all the other search scripts). What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
