Uploaded a new version and also published it on the official repository: https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_dr_meter.
Mainly improvements to the log writing, written average bitrate now matches foobar as it's properly weighted based on track lengths. Length info gets written even for tracks that don't report length to foobar as exact frame count is stored during scanning. And if album consists of various audio formats all the different formats will be listed at the bottom info section.

I love this so much! Thanks for all your work on this (and other components) @Case.

After running DR Meter on an album, I see this:


Would it be possible to get all this data written to tags or to a log file (or both)?

Could someone please write down what these parameters mean?
(FL) (FR) (FC) (LFE) (BL) (BR)

How to read it? When is it good and when is not good, Does more mean better sound or does as less means better sound?

This is the result of scanning my CD

LOL.

FL = Front Left
FR = Front Right
FC = Front Center
LFE = Subwoofer
BL  = Back Left
BR = Back Right
SL = Side Left
SR = Side Right

It is the mapping of your audio.
