3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: NEW ESLyric v0.5 - an alternative lyric show component
Last post by Defender -
Because of the rather bad foobar-x86 start and shutdown experience with multisource 0.5.6 enabled and not getting feedback on my bug report, I'm migrating to ESlyrics.

5) I installed Sveakul's modified scripts for metallum and minilyrics, but so far did not get any hit for those two plugins even searching for the easiest stuff like for instance "Van Halen - Little Dreamer" (which of course is found via all the other search scripts). What am I doing wrong?
Hi Defender--you should try posting the bug report to the actual LSP3 thread, which is where Veksha seems to post the most:
https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,90338.0.html

As far as my two modified scripts for ESLyric, they are designed specifically for use with radio streams, which almost never send album name data.  You should use the ones for Metallum and Minilyrics that are already included in ESLyrics if your searching is for actual music files that include embedded album name tags.  You can keep both versions and just un-check the mod ones when you are not listening to radio streams.

Thx. I'll forward my multisource problem post in the LSP3 thread.

I do listen a lot to radio streams, but I wasn't aware your modified scripts were only active on radiostreams. Will check now.
EDIT: Yes, your modified metallum script found lyrics for King Diamond.

Development - (fb2k) / MPD Client / Component
Last post by eahm -
Hello, I tried to search but all the topics about MPD for foobar2000 are too old, did anyone make a component to use foobar2000 as a MPD Client or will Peter be interested in creating one? Just throwing the idea out there. Thank you.

Support - (fb2k) / Cannot install input_sacd component (foobar 1.15.11 - Win XP)
Last post by dragonxxx -
Hi, I want to play DSD files on my Windows XP computer. I installed foobar 1.15.11 as indicated for a Win XP computer (32 bits). Then I tried to install the "input_sacd-1.5.11" component from the "foo_input_sacd-1.5.11.rar" file but foobar crashes; I tried many times, it always crash. The computer's CPU is AMD Athlon 1000, <<<not XP>> I insist, there is no floating point unit on that processor. Maybe this is the problem. With "crash" I mean the GUI disappears. That computer is not connected to internet so I cannot use the online help/debug and I didn't find a way to make a search on foobar forum.
Thanks for any help.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: help setting up Georgia-ReBORN please
Last post by TT -
Are you using style Alternative or Alternative 2 in top menu Options > Style?
There is actually an issue in version RC2 when using both of these styles in the
text button in the playlist top bar when turning off the auto-hide feature.

Please install the latest DEV version from here:
https://github.com/TT-ReBORN/Georgia-ReBORN/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

This version has fixed the issue with the "Alternative" or "Alternative 2" styles and you can
turn off again the auto-hide feature ( top Menu > Options >  Playlist > Playlist manager > Auto-hide ).

But still, the RC2 version works with the auto-hide feature enabled. Are you not using a mouse!?

Other Lossy Codecs / Re: How to add new modes in WMA 9.2?
Last post by MihaiPopa12346 -
Those are normal CBR, any WMA encoder can do them. 
IN DIRECTSHOW ENCODERS LIKE NCH SOFTWARE WAVEPAD OR SWITCH.
"1. Windows Media Audio 9.2 - 56 kbps, 44 kHz, stereo 1-pass CBR
2. Windows Media Audio 9.2 - 16 kbps, 11 kHz, stereo 1-pass CBR
3. Windows Media Audio 9.2 - 8 kbps, 8 kHz, stereo 1-pass CBR
4. Windows Media Audio 9.2 - 40 kbps, 22 kHz, stereo 1-pass CBR
5. Windows Media Audio 9.2 - 44 kbps, 44 kHz, stereo 1-pass CBR
6. Windows Media Audio 9.2 - 40 kbps, 48 kHz, mono 1-pass CBR" - MOST DIRECTSHOW WMA ENCODERS DON'T HAVE THESE MODES TO SELECT.

Last post by Defender -
@Case

Not really a big thing, but during development probably best to address.

I did some compares on your published LUFS-I value to the oneliner calculation based on your published %replaygain_track_peak_db% and %replaygain_track_gain% values. So both methods should be based on the same values and give the same result.

They are not the same in a kind of weird way. Either the values are exactly the same (as I do expect) or the values are exactly 0.1 off.
Can you please confirm that your calculation is correct and not 0.1 off and the problem is the undebugable oneliner?

Oneliner:
$if(%replaygain_track_peak_db%,$puts(LUFS,$add($mul($replace(%replaygain_track_gain%,.,),10),18000))$puts(LUFS_TEN,$left($right($get(LUFS),3),2))$puts(LUFS_ROUND,$ifgreater($get(LUFS_TEN),40,$add($get(LUFS),100),get(LUFS)))$iflonger($get(LUFS_ROUND),4,$left($get(LUFS_ROUND),2).$substr($get(LUFS_ROUND),3,4),$left($get(LUFS_ROUND),1).$substr($get(LUFS_ROUND),2,3)),)

(I guess your value is correct and the oneliner does some truncating somewhere instead of rounding)

EDIT: If the first digit after the decimal point in your calculation is between 0 and (including) 3 results are the same, otherwise the oneliner version gives a 0.1 higher result.

Could someone please write down what these parameters mean?
(FL) (FR) (FC) (LFE) (BL) (BR)

How to read it? When is it good and when is not good, Does more mean better sound or does as less means better sound?

This is the result of scanning my CD
