enabling the "Automatically synchronize file tags with statistics" option helped for me.. (although it sometimes causes a little higher cpu-usage)

maybe you should have a look a the properties dialog of some song - maybe your script is using another tag than your version of the foo_playcount-plugin?!

Hope this helps!

hmm. not working here either. Anyone know what's wrong? maybe we should just bite the bullet and start using the official play counter or something

Edit: Found the solution. Use the updated version of the unofficial play counter.

Download dll

Here's where i found the solution: HA Thread Link

Also, the metadb leaks are gone.

wohoo!

I've already bit the bullet and am using the official play counter  No regrets either. It's much better than it originally was.

Does the official updates the tags?
Does the official work without the Media Library?

Official updates tags if you set it to. Otherwise it just writes to the database.

is this plugin still being updated? if so, tags arent updated if foobar is restarted while a song is playing. assuming its restarted before the update should happen. and also, is ther eanyway to get rid of that damn annoying tag updating window?

Tags shouldn't update if foobar restarts before it should be updated. Read what you just wrote again. And yes, by using the official playback statistics instead.

this plugin used to leave a tmp file in foobars directory to indicate if it was playing, but not updated in the case foobar is restarted. some people have chosen foobar to resume playback on startup and in this case, the files do not get updated. also, the official plugin lacks too many options not to mention the fact that the tag it generates is useless to me..

Working with resume playback after restart is probably just something that was overlooked. However, the official plugin writes every tag the unofficial plugin writes.

ok, ive figured out that %last_played% will display a readable date format and %last_played_timestamp% shows this strange format. what format is it?

is it possible to convert all my old tags from 2006-10-15 15:30:41 to this format?

Is there any way to supress the "updating files" window when it updates the playcount?? It keeps stealing focus from other programs..

the official playcount plugin doesn't have the same behavior as the unofficial does... am I wrong?
I don't want to use a database and I want it to update on the middle of the playing music...

I've recently installed the latest version of FOFR and everything seems to be working except the playcount feature. If I check the box like shown in the picture above will that cause my tags to get modified? I only want this to modify db records and not alter my tags.

Anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot this? I installed the playcount component that's linked at the very beginning of this thread. I'm running foobar v.0.9.4.1.

Sincerely,
