foobar2000 for Mac / Re: foobar2000 for Mac: bugs & wishes
Last post by slnc -
Thanks a lot for all the work, @Peter. I use foobar for many hours every day and every time I install an update it feels like Christmas.

Some minor suggestions for your consideration:

1) When I save a Playlist, the default export filename is Untitled.m3u8. Could we change it to be the playlist's name? I sync a dozen playlists across 3 foobar2000 mac installations and an iPhone one, and this would save me typos and time.

1b) A complementary and even better solution would be to add an "Export Library" menu option so that I have to do O(1) work per source computer each time I do a sync. At the same this would let me version control my foobar settings and track stats, and it would make my sync-across-computers setup much simpler.

2) I would like to use the "Save playback statistics on each track", but I'm not using it because when it's on, I get distracted 62 seconds after a track starts playing when the foobar2000 dock icon jumps (and an Updating Files foobar popup opens). Is it possible to update track statistics invisibly to the user?

3) Have you considered adding an "Automatically check for new foobar2000 versions once a week" feature? I now regularly "miss" on new features for days or weeks because I forget to manually check.

Thanks!

I can not care less if you like it or not, it's totally fine. Really.

Is just that you are writing nonsense without reason. You simply don't understand how to use it and are complaining things don't work how you want without reading the manual or understanding the script.

1. No. You simply didn't care to change the timeouts to update the playlist list. (which again is there for files, not just UI playlists).
2. I gave you the explanation on github.
3. Read 1. xd You can make it refresh on real time.
4. This is like saying foobar is overly complex when you only need WMP.
5. Again you don't understanding the features YOU have set. Because that feature is not active by default.
6. Wow 13 bugs on a year. Incredible. All fixed within a week. Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? I mean, if you read marc's threads, it's like sometimes he updates a plugin 3 times a day because of bugs or errors xd does that make him or his plugins bad? too many bugs? I don't think so.

I'm out of this conver, have no time to waste with people not reading manuals and just asking devs to set things to their liking.

Support - (fb2k) / little bug with album cover in windows 11
Last post by Sebastianxy1 -
Windows 11 23H2 build 22631
Foobar2000 2.1.5 x64
prehistory, I've used it my entire adult life winamp, after that aimp 2 and 3, and now I decided to try foobar, I liked the player, it has a lot of functions, plugins and customizations, but I found a small bug in it, it appears not only in the player but also in browsers, after I manually change the track, in the player, in the windows panel it does not change and remains the same, in browsers it’s the same, but youtube videos that I’ve already watched can be displayed there, Problem in MS devs, but why let's say the player can't send api commands to windows and change the cover?

foobar2000 mobile / foobar2000 mobile on eversolo?
Last post by jott_ha -
Hi everyone

How can I get access to the internal SSD on an eversolo streamer?
I have tried with the .apk-file installed on an DMP A6 and all I got was a network error…
The internal SSD is visible and useable with the eversolo‘s own music app and can also be adressed from my computer.

Has anyone succeeded or an idea of how to connect?

Thanx, Jay

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_enhanced_spectrum_analyzer
Last post by TF3RDL -
Love this component, but just a couple of anomalies:

Even though I have tooltips turned on, I don't get a readout of the note frequency when I hover over a frequency bar, like I did with the old Musical Spectrum. Any way to do this?
There is no such thing as tooltips for foo_enhanced_spectrum_analyzer currently, though sneak peeks posted by @Crossover suggests that upcoming version 2.0.0.0 for Enhanced Spectrum analyzer component could have tooltips added

Also, the vertical Octave divider lines don't coincide exactly with the actual frequency bars, which look kinda messy. If there's a setting I'm missing, please let me know. I'm trying to get as close to the old Musical Spectrum settings I had, as possible.
BTW, do you mean foo_vis_spectrum_analyzer instead of foo_enhanced_spectrum_analyzer?

Because again, frequency bands mode is currently not available for Enhanced Spectrum analyzer component, though upcoming Enhanced Spectrum analyzer 2.0.0.0 could have one, like my dream I've experienced last time where this component got an update that not only added Musical Spectrum-esque bars but also an option to use IIR filter bank instead of FFT
