General - (fb2k) / Is it possible to display all tracks from the folder where you opened the file?
Last post by afrodani -
In the foobar2000 GUI, is it possible to display all audio files from the folder where the audio file was opened, similar to BillyMp3 by SheepFriends?

Let's say you have a folder on Windows called "music" and in the "music" folder there are several subfolders, such as "1" "2" "3", and let's say in folder "2" I have 11 tracks. Then I go into that folder, and play track number #5, and foobar will open, but it will only display that track. Now I want it to show all tracks from that folder, "2," so I can switch between tracks. Is that possible?

It turns out it was from using fb.PlaybackLength <= 0. In fact, both versions were doing this. At first I thought 0.5.4.1028 was ammune. I don't want Lyrics showing when streaming occurs, which is why I use it. I came up with another way to handle that.

HOWEVER, I do still get a very brief blank screen ONLY on the "later versions" when pressing stop. The way I have it programmed is if stop occurs, Lyrics (which does not show artwork when stopped) is replaced by another artwork script. But there is a momentary blank screen in between this transition. 0.5.4.1028 does not have this minor issue.

It would be nice if ESLyric would have the option of showing only the artwork when stopped. I believe it would be simple option to add.
Stopping playback is different from pausing playback. If you want to display an image when stopping playback, you can add a default image or a custom image + check Always show background. When pausing playback, the image is displayed normally. If you want to go further, you can try layout.

FLAC / Tags not showing in file explorer (windows)
Last post by Imakarum Mirabilis -
Anyone else having this issue? At first I thought it was just the program I was using but even dbpoweramp is doing it now. Seems to be a problem with Flac 1.5? Metadata shows in players like Foobar etc. but not in file explorer. This isnt the case for every track/album. But it is happening for a few of them. I am a huge newbie to all of this.

You are welcome and happy to hear you like it!

There is an on/off toggle, menu option "Skip tracks & use bookmarks" in the Playback menu. You can also create a button out of it.

You can remove old entries by right clicking the down arrow at the end of the dropdown menu. It has options "Wipe history" to clear everything, and "Remove this history item" to remove the entry that is currently selected. You can keep the history clean.

Last post by Case -
The automatic RG scanning is only a part of the DSPs functionality. It also offers smarter automatic ReplayGain mode as it doesn't just blindly look at your playback setting - it analyzes your playlist content too. And it can do gain adjustment on track boundaries smoother without introducing sudden transition glitches. Not sure it's a plus, but it offers simplified UI to select among common playback target levels. And the clip prevention offers options that leave configured amount of headroom too, so you can follow EBU's best practices if you wish. And it brings back the original RG config dialog suggestion of offering clip prevention through compression.

Last post by Case -
@wcs13 : as boxerfan88 said, use the fade options in foobar2000 output configuration. It's a ready-made working solution that can do the task perfectly without any new UI elements.

DSPs can't affect fades on manual track change, though nothing would prevent a DSP from offering custom UI to trigger fade on a press of a button. Though for it to work properly your machine would have to be fast enough for the DSP to be able to eat away the rest of the track without delay, or it would have to be a decoder shim and take over the decoder. This is not recommended, and there's a limit in how many such shims can be active.
