Other Lossy Codecs / Re: Index tables for unofficial IMA ADPCM bit depths
Last post by Case -
ADPCM stopped being relevant long before Adobe Flash was a thing. Only place where it would make some sense is in some ancient software that supported nothing else. In that setting unofficial variations make no sense at all.
Replacing a lookup table with a linear variant would mean worse quality per bitrate. Storing an index number for something that could be directly computed simply by multiplying with a constant is a waste of space.

General - (fb2k) / Re: Tagging with an iterative loop e.g. tag automatically according to folder order

Thanks, but I've got thousands of folders without a consistent structure, so parsing strings would be laborious.

Also, I'm wanting to edit the album tags as I go (to removed 'CD 1'-type suffixes and make the album tags identical, so manual tagging would be quicker than parsing.

Really, I'd want something that works in a similar way to the 'Auto track number' function, but for Discnumbers.
You could do it with foo_sqlite, but if you're just doing one album at a time it's probably just as easy to do it with Masstagger scripts and keyboard shortcuts e.g. one script to set discnumber to 1 (Ctrl+1), one to set discnumber to 2 (Ctrl+2) e.t.c., and do it from the playlist window.

I don't use the Properties panel for editing but given there's an 'Auto track number' I'm surprised there's not an equivalent for discnumber.

MP3 - General / Re: Resurrecting/Preserving the Helix MP3 encoder

Don't confuse @KevinB52379 to much.
Old hmp3 versions work, @JoshuaChang version works within foobar.
A solution at the source is worthwile in this case.

I was willing to give Hyperfire a shot...but to be honest I thought the same thing as you. 

If the original version of Helix 64 bit works from ReallyRareWares, and @JoshaChan version works perfectly with foobar...then something else is the issue.

Also as I mentioned, I've used LAME (both 32 bit and 64 bit), FAAC 1.30, OPUS, Ogg Vorbis AoTuV, FDKAAC - all from RareWares, and they all behave normally, so I don't think it's a temperature/overheating issue.  This is with foobar and all cores/threads being used.  Perfect fine speed and system responsiveness.

I do think it is interesting that CPU utilization never reaches 100% like it does with Joshua's version, old Helix and Case's 32 bit binary.
