3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: JScript Panel
Last post by marc2k3 -
3.4.29

https://github.com/jscript-panel/release/releases

https://jscript-panel.github.io/docs/changes/

Changes for script authors only. I've made some changes to some plman methods so they don't return true/false any more as it was kind of pointless. If removing a playlist or sorting it fails, what are you doing with that information? Spamming the console or popping up a message would be daft. :P

I recommend checking playlist lock status to prevent such actions in the first place. As an example, the included playlist managers have always greyed out items if a playlist can't be removed or renamed.

General - (fb2k) / Re: attach pictures on-line in foobar2000
Last post by Juancar2 -
Hi everyone, I'm new to foobar, I just started using it.  I wanted to know if there is the possibility of attaching the album cover to a music file by taking the image online.  When I right-click on the audio file, tagging and then attach pictures there is no option to choose the image from an online database but only to choose an image saved locally on the PC.

Speech Codecs / No ACELP.KELVIN encoder!
Last post by MihaiPopa12346 -
Hello, I heard about this format: ACELP.KELVIN
It's like ACELP.net but it also supports stereo encoding.
Searched "ACELP.KELVIN encoder", but no luck. :-X
This is the stereo file:

MP3 - General / Re: ffmpeg: A buggy MP3 (MPEG-2 mode) decoder?
Last post by MihaiPopa12346 -
Turns out that the encoding most likely is fine, but that ffmpeg (which I use for a quick command-line listen) apparently has a MP3 decoder that introduces the chirp artifacts...
...
(The chirp artifact is pretty obvious, e.g., around the 8.4 seconds mark)
I still hear the chirp artifacts with headphones. LAME is a better decoder than FFmpeg for that type of files.
