Personally I have never trusted DR numbers, it's quite arbitrary and its measurement is easy to fool. But as many people said they want it for knowing which mastered version they have of a certain record, and for that it works well. If your use case is similar, DR is probably more useful.

I'm not certain how that image relates to DR Meter. But if the horizontal axel is frequency in Hz there doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary going on. Normal 44.1 kHz CD sourced material looks a lot like that apart from the dip after 8 (kHz?).

Though I have to wonder about hte scale, it is very strange and hard to read. Majority used for low bass frequencies, tiny bit for most audible mid frequencies and tiny slice for higher audible frequencies. Huge part on the visualization area on the right is wasted for frequencies that don't even exist in the source signal. And absolutely random frequencies chosen to be labeled. I have no idea where that red line is even positioned.

Support - (fb2k) / Re: issue with foobar2000 not updating the playlistview/library
Last post by Case -
Those library issues sound weird. There was a bug in 2.x series that could cause folder watcher to not see modifications if there were too many of them in a short time window, but it was fixed months ago.

I think I found your crash log. Crash seems to be caused by foo_multisource, which unfortunately happens a lot. Files seem to be on Z: drive, is that perhaps a NAS? I know those devices have had bugs in the past and file change notifications have not worked all that well on them.

Scientific Discussion / Re: AudioWorklet-based filter bank spectrum analyzer
Last post by TF3RDL -
Sorry but this all thing is just pseudo-science. Above generated spectrums do not match reality and are extremely low resolution.
except that analog audio spectrum analyzers (including but not limited to MSGEQ7) and some digital ones like the spectrum analyzers in display of RME DACs (which I don't have) do use IIR filter bank instead of FFT, though usually are "low-resolution" 1/3rd octave bands or full-octave, but some of them like Spectralissime do go up to 1/24th octave resolution and not using FFT and it have advantages over FFT like an ability to set time/frequency resolution tradeoff per-band (which mean you can have precise frequency resolution on bass frequencies and faster time resolution on higher frequencies at the same time) and change the frequency bin distribution to something like logarithmic frequency scales like octave bands

BTW, what about 1/48th octave spectrum (6th order cascaded biquads) and 1/192th octave bands (not cascaded, and it is not implemented in this project)? Satisfied?

Lossless / Other Codecs / Re: libttaR (TTA rewrite part 2)
Last post by rdtsh -
Not decoded framesize, but encoded ones as stored in final output, if audio is mostly silence it will slow thing down unless TTA encode silence frames extremely inefficiently which may be true after all considering it poor design decisions.
so ffmpeg gets slower when it has to read less? what a well designed piece of software
and yes, tta is not that efficient with silence compared to most other codecs

The dialog shows RMS and Peak values as dBFS, but the log file shows them as dB.
If you ever get in a position to update this component for whatever reason, would it be too much to ask to also show those values as dBFS in the log file?
I tried to keep the log as close to old component's format as possible, that's why I used the same wrong units. Units corrected in version 0.5 of the component.

if a folder contained files of mixed type (FLAC + MP3, for example), it crashed foobar2000.
That should not be a problem, I was fully prepared for such scenario and log will even report different codecs in use. I found single crash entry from crash logger from this component, it was related to scanning highly corrupted tracks and some tracks looked like they couldn't get decoded at all. The log writer had too light error checking for scan results and it tried to access per-channel data that it never managed to scan.
Should be fixed in the just released version 0.5. I'd appreciate it if you could test with the same files that failed earlier.

Thanks Case.  Although I couldn't remember the exact album that caused the issue, I found five others that had a mix of file types similar to that one.  After installing the latest version 0.6 today, all of them completed without issue.  Thanks!
