HydrogenAudio has the honour to host the official foobar2000 forum.
Foobar2000 (don't let the name distract you :B ) is a new compact, fast developing audio player for Windows 2000/XP developed by zZzZzZz. Foobar2000 has a specific emphasis on audio- and technical quality, not on skinning or visuals.
Visit the new forum (http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?s=&act=SC&c=12), which is led by zZzZzZz, and give feedback.
foobar2000 feature list: (notice: player features constantly updating)
- supported formats: MP3, Ogg Vorbis, MPC, FLAC, Ogg FLAC, WAV, MOD (needs foo_mod.dll), SPC (needs foo_spc.dll)
- 32bit floatingpoint audio processing pipeline, with 6dB hard limiter and conversion to 16/24bit (dithered) at the end.
