Audio Hardware / Re: audio device on Beelink u59 / AZW U59 (U3E1)

From my professional experience, albeit twenty years ago by now, you're always going to get a better sound from outboard gear, even if the processor isn't being taxed because it's simply what it's made for. quality outboard gear (e.g. ad/da conversion processes) makes for night and day of course!
Twenty years ago the difference was night and day. Today, onboard audio is good enough that most people will never notice anything wrong with it.

You may be better off getting a laptop instead of another one of those mini-PCs.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_enhanced_spectrum_analyzer
Last post by TF3RDL -
Quote from: pqyt on
Work in progress:

- Separate peak and RMS read-outs
- Left/Right and Mid/Side level meters with configurable channel pair.
This upcoming update for another component (foo_vis_spectrum_analyzer) makes me want a stereo balance/phase correlation spectrum (basically Voxengo Correlometer or something like that but FFT) added for Enhanced Spectrum analyzer component

Might be useful to let me visualize what kind of artifacts and/or differences I'm hearing when listen in mono vs. stereo (e.g. the NCS song "Debris & Our Psych - Omerta" have lead synths that so wide to the point it sound slightly different when played in mono), though the FR of allowing simultaneous channels visualization do the same job when Mid/Side channels are visualized, just in a different (level-dependent I guess) representation

Support - (fb2k) / Is my Foobar2000 really corrupted?
Last post by sacdman -
I have downloaded and reinstalled Foobar v2.1.4 X64 and reinstalled it. When I check the online troubleshooter, I get this message...

"foobar2000 help: corrupted foobar2000 installation

You have reached this page because you appear to be running a modified or corrupted version of foobar2000, one that did not come from us.

We strongly recommend that you uninstall your copy of foobar2000 and scan your system for malicious software.

Note that you should always download foobar2000 from the official site (www.foobar2000.org). Download it from any other source at your own risk. We have no control over what other people put in their "foobar2000 installers" and take no responsibility for any damage to your system they might cause."

I think this might be in error, since I have downloaded my version of foobar right from foobar2000.org. Any ideas?

foobar2000 mobile / Re: How to add a Windows shared folder to Foobar2000?
Last post by Case -
I don't really understand why people ask foobar2000 questions on reddit. Reddit doesn't even seem to show that the original post in the thread you linked was later edited to contain the bit about Android - initially it had no OS information making majority of the replies irrelevant/incorrect.

Android has no SMB support built-in. Android doesn't support FTP either, but it's much simpler protocol and Peter could add support for it relatively easily and quickly.
So officially there is no way to add SMB shares to mobile foobar2000. In theory a program that adds SMB support to the OS might work. I found this program that claims to do it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.connectedway.spiritcloud.

As a workaround you could run FTP server on Windows and share the same paths over FTP.

General - (fb2k) / Re: foobar2000 for mac

After a two week break a new build of 2.7 preview now offers more main window customization options. Looks like to me there's going to be a lot more development in this are before a stable 2.7 is out.

What I would really love to see is the conversion functions from the Win version added. Free apps which perform these functions on a Mac are not easy to use. Being able to split a compressed single file with a cue sheet into separate compressed files is a very useful function.

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

Very good, should improve performance with all Windows compiles.

Now that we discussed about invalid file state with interrupted encoding I noticed that the Xing header isn't correct in that case. Here's a patch for dev branch to fix that.
Finally, the gcc's speed is identical to clang's build, thank you @Case, I do believe this patch will also solve @KevinB52379's Zoomtext compatibility issue.
Here's the dev binary(include both gcc and clang) for test purpose.
