We now have DR built into Foobar natively, with this component (and the True Peak Scanner), so can use what we need. It's brilliant for mastering as I can get an instant readout of many different variables, track to track.

Since you’re a mastering engineer, I have to remind you that foobar’s “DR” plug–in is an approximation.

Yeah, it's not a problem for me as I've never taken much notice of DR. I mostly use LUFS-I and peak LUFS-S to give me a quick idea of how loud a track is likely to be before listening. As I said above, those figures have documentation and standardisation, and are widely used in the audio industry, unlike DR which I've rarely heard an engineer refer to.

Question. The dialog shows RMS and Peak values as dBFS, but the log file shows them as dB.
If you ever get in a position to update this component for whatever reason, would it be too much to ask to also show those values as dBFS in the log file?

Now that I am aware of the difference it's not that big of an issue, but it looked confusing at first as these differ from the dBTP values.
