Support - (fb2k) / Re: ReplayGain/Peaks

Last post by _Slipstream - Today at 00:50

When I scan the files and choose prevent clipping according to peak, it just turns the file down so the levels are always WELL below peak, I don't want that. I want the peak of each track or album to hit just under 0 dB, so when I look at the waveform on the oscilloscope that peak area fills out beautiful just shy of clipping. What's the deal, how do I achieve this? Much thanks for any help.

Awesome, sounds great. I bet the libretro people would love to see your improvements, especially the original dev (Maister).
I can do a pull request on the repo integrating some of your changes, when this happens.

With some libretro stuff, we already use SSE2NEON.h as a wrapper to NEON intrinsics in some DSP maths (like for N64 vector processor emulation). I guess something similar could be done so that also Android end users of RetroArch could use it.

Last post by Vicas - 2021-04-17 23:12:45

I can confirm.
In my case I use "Prefer currently playing track" and with that option "Show in Explorer" is disabled every time any song is played.

Support - (fb2k) / foobar2000 v1.6.6 b1 - Album Art Viewer 'Show in Explorer' option disabled

Last post by Snowknight26 - 2021-04-17 22:53:34

Ran across an issue in v1.6.6 b1 that's preventing the "Show in Explorer" option from working for a particular track.

Have an album with 2 tracks, neither of which have embedded artwork. foobar2000 is configured to "prefer current selection" under the Selection viewers section of Preferences -> Display.

Selecting track 1 and right clicking on the album art reveals "Show in Explorer" is disabled.
Selecting track 2 and right clicking on the album art reveals "Show in Explorer" is enabled and works properly, opening Explorer to the artwork.

Track 1:

Track 2:

Folder:

Code: [Select]

D:\Music\Mhammed El Alami & Exolight\Velvet Skies>dir

Yep, folder.jpg is there alright.

Not sure what other info is needed, such as a dump, etc.

Edit: Figured out that it only happens if the track you're currently playing is the one the Album Art Viewer is showing the art for. Confirmed this with another album. Definitely a bug.

Lossless / Other Codecs / Re: How to convert DTS 5.1 (one file wav/dts+cue) to multi-ch Flac

Last post by kode54 - 2021-04-17 22:27:48

DTS HD MA is lossless. But the converter doesn't know about the dynamically generated metadata fields that decode postprocessors generate. You'll have to specify 24 bits manually.

Unfortunately, only macOS seems to provide the simple means to convert Asian scripts to Pinyin or similar, other platforms need libraries to do that.

PCM DSD converter doesn't recognize wav from foobar as wav file.
sox:
sox.exe FAIL formats: can't open input file `Test.wav': WAVE file fmt with padded samples is not supported yet

Any advice?

Is there any one step soft DVDAudio to DSD ? There was sonore iso2dsd_gui.jar men isn't working now...

I can't imagine how you was able to create such wav files.

As for iso2dsd, it has nothing to do with DVDA or conversion of wav to dsd.

Today there was an edit referencing that video, to the MQA wikipedia page ... (not by me).
Let's see what happens.
