OK, try Shift + File/iPod/Raw properties and PM me the output.

OK: basically the property list had this in it:
Code: [Select]
<data>Pedometer</data>

data tags were supposed to have Base64 encoded data in it, well so say the comments here, but never mind..

Not sure if that element is something new in your firmware version, or just something to do with your device.

New version 0.6.6.7 should workaround this anyway.

Thanks for the report.

ok, not too happy right now with foobar. any reason why foobar would just all of a sudden not open. i mean it opens, but nothing is displayed and it says "foobar is not responding"..
Well, you can download ProcDump, run "procdump -h foobar2000.exe hungwindow.dmp" from a command prompt when fb2k is frozen, and send the hungwindow.dmp file created to me and I'll take a look for you..

Alternatively, check the online troubleshooter, or try removing third party components one at a time. As far as this component goes, the Apple libraries used for iPhone/iPod touch support can do odd things..

doesnt work, cmd prompt says: 'procdump' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Type the full path to it then, e.g.
Code: [Select]
"d:\my downloads\procdump" -h foobar2000.exe "d:\my downloads\hungwindow.dmp"
.

oh wow. i was just in the process of uploading the file for you when foobar opened up and said something about some issues and if i would like to run the online troubleshooter. here's what it said:

http://help.foobar2000.org/troubleshooter/...c65fc0749e7df80

and the file: ---link removed by request---

Looks like something is trying to do file I/O in the main thread - at a guess something artwork related, but I can't quite see what component.

It is trying to read something from your iPhone/iPod touch, and foo_dop waits a few seconds for the Apple Mobile Device Support to initialise. But it's quite early on so it hasn't even started initialisation from the looks of it, and this will be preventing it from doing so.

If you wait long enough it should load, but it may well be doing repeated I/O requests...

Basically whatever is doing the file I/O in the main thread is the main problem (and I'd check anything you have that is displaying artwork), but I should be able to do something on my side as well so it doesn't bother waiting those few seconds in this case.

P.S. I would remove the dmp file or the link to it now.

I just loaded the newest version and it doesn't dectect my iPhone. Went back to 0.6.6.5 and it is fine.

update, i dont know how to remove that file from filedropper, additionally i cant edit posts.

either way, foobar is running smoothly, at least for now. i went ahead and updated the four components that were causing conflicts.

now onto something else entirely. no songs are playing. i click on one song and it opens a text box and cycles through every single song, nonstop. its weird.

You must have loaded the iPod library to a playlist, so change back to your other playlist (or create a new one etc.).

I'm getting a problem where the artists name appears three times on the ipod. Under each listing of that artist they all have the same albums and tracks. It seems that foo_dop just lists the artist three times instead of one. This didn't happen to me before when I was using winamp or iTunes to sync my ipod. What can I do to fix it ?

Rewrite database command or load library>select all tracks>update metadata.

Is it me or does this plugin considerably slows down foobar2k's start up and shutdown?

I don't even have my iPod plugged in, and it takes 6-7 seconds before foobar2k responds when starting up, and about the same time when it closes.

I think I'll disable the plugin and use it only when I need to sync...

I think it may be you. LOL, no really you can check this yourself. Look at the console right after you startup. There will be a startup time listed in seconds. My startup time was 1.921517 with foo_dop. Remove the foo_dop.dll or rename it and startup again looking at the time. Mine was 1.914481 without foo_dop. As far as shutdown goes I would say 2.5 or 3 seconds from the time I click close button till it's gone.

The console should list out different items as they initialize. Look there and see what is taking so long. You may have an autoplaylist that is very complex or something like that causing it.

None of these fixed the problem. Using the same files it syncs normally with winamp. What else can I do ?

Do your files have sort fields? For example, if three files by the same artist have three different artist sort fields, it may create problems.

Did you send all those files using foo_dop?

Otherwise e-mail a backup of your iPod_Control\iTunes folder to the e-mail address on my website, also stating what model you have.

You might want to check if you have trailing space, or different capitalization in the artist names. I have had the problem in the past where "Ac/DC" and "AC/DC" would not sync to the same artist name.

How do I check for artist sort fields ?

Quick question, how would I get a track name display like this BUT ONLY for albums that have multiple discs:

1.01 - First Track on First Album


I've tried this, but it didn't work

[%discnumber%.]%tracknumber% - %title%

Is it possible to make foo_dop put Marvin Gaye under M and not G?

Looks OK to me (if in doubt, add to a column in your playlist view or similar). Don't forget 'Update metadata' for tracks already on the device.

Hi,

This is it, I've had a look and the files seem to be littered with sort fields, that's also why it is coming under G.

If you don't want them, go into the source files' properties and remove any ARTISTSORTORDER, COMPOSERSORTORDER, TITLESORTORDER, ALBUMARTISTSORTORDER, ALBUMSORTORDER fields, and then resync.

I think I will also disable support for them out-of-the-box in the next version.

Can you tell me a couple of artists that you were seeing duplicated though? Thanks.

Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, Radiohead. However, I have just "restored" my ipod using iTunes and re added all my files and it seems the duplication has gone away. It also downloaded new firmware for my ipod so perhaps that fixed the problem. Is there to no way to configre foo_dop to do a custom sort based on the data of the sort fields?

Hi all, unrelated post to the above replies. I'm having trouble removing files already on my iPod (5g 30gb). I can remove playlists on it however under "Justin's iPod" there are some and I can;t for the life of me figure out how to basically wipe my iPod and start fresh. From what I read of the 2k+ replies on this thread  that I need to keep iTunes on my machine in order to do a restore, but do I also need to in order to get all pre-existing music off? Sorry for redundancy, I'm sure this has been addressed elsewhere. Thanks in advance and THANK YOU for this plug in GREAT stuff. -J

File>ipod>load library>select all songs>right-click,ipod and remove from ipod. Then I would select a playlist that you wanted to sync to the ipod and use synchronize with that.
