3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: Library Tree Discussion

Not an easy task but if you were prepared to rename your files..
I don't want to rename, because all files are seeding in "transmission")
Maybe I can add additional update command in the right place in the code?
Dunno about Transmission, but with qBittorrent you can rename files and folders of torrents from within qBittorrent and still have them be recognized by the client and seeded. I do it all the time, I rename the contents of downloads to conform with my music library's organization and also rely on qBT to keep track of the files, hash check them to ensure data integrity etc.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: Dynamic Range plugin
Last post by Jackal29a -
I'm using V1.1.1 (*) on 1.6.17 and works fine and does indeed write tags. I also have a DR column with %DYNAMIC RANGE% to show each track's DR value.

(*) I think the"2" at the end of your version # is incorrect. Your file's SHA256 matches mine.

PD. I'd also would like a 64bit DR plugin but the source code is apparently unavailble.

FLAC / Re: FLAC v1.4.x Performance Tests
Last post by Replica9000 -
Thanks for the infos. GCC 14 looses most here with 16bit audio and disabled asm optimizations.
24bit files encode way to slow with disabled asm optimizations with all versions imho.

That's why I didn't bother with results for the 24-bit audio without asm optimizations.  The single threaded runs take about 3 minutes longer to encode.

MP3 - General / Re: ffmpeg: A buggy MP3 (MPEG-2 mode) decoder?
Last post by Case -
FFmpeg has indeed been fixed for a long time. Produces practically identical output to lame decoder. Though sadly I think this issue has went unnoticed in foobar2000 land. All versions prior to v2.0 use an ancient FFmpeg that still chirps.

I've got a problem with something I'm trying to do: I want to rely on folder organization rather than tagging to organize and navigate my music library cause it's too big to go through every album and add the tags, at least for now. So I basically want to set up foobar to work as a folder explorer. This is my library's structure:

My Music
  [Artist]
    [Type of audio (vinyl, CD, hi-res, etc.)]
        [Download, e.g. "complete vinyl collection", "discography", sometimes individual albums]
            [Year] - [Album]
                Files

So I've created 4 Library Tree panels, set each as the source of the next one, and selected folder structure view for all of them. But rather than acting as I expected, with each panel taking me further down the folder structure, instead they all show the same root directory and don't interact. What do I have to do to make each panel act as a filter for the next one? Also, is there a way to show nothing in the 3rd panel if what is selected in the 2nd panel is an album folder instead of folder with a collection of albums?
