Development - (fb2k) / Context menu items don't get executed by keyboard shortcut
Last post by pqyt -
I converted a working context menu created with contextmenu_item_simple to a more dynamic one using contextmenu_item_node_root_popup.

The new context menu works perfectly and its actions are visible in the available Action list of the Preferences dialog.

I can map a keyboard shortcut to the action but it does not get called.

Before you ask:
- foobar2000 v2.2 2024-07-07 x64
- The same shortcut (Alt + Num 1, Global hotkey) calls main menu and standard context menu items just fine.
- mappable_shortcut() returns true for the contextmenu_item_node_leaf objects.

On a side note: why can't Alt + 1-9 be used to map an action?

It's surely a bug in my code... Any hints?

Edit:
- Switching back to contextmenu_item_simple the Preferences dialog complains about missing actions with the GUID I use for the root of the context menu. The GUID has not changed. Remapping the actions makes the shortcut keys work with the contextmenu_item_simple version of the context menu in v2.1.5.
- Alt + 1-9 can be used in v2.1.5 x64

foobar2000 for Mac / Play DSD Multichannel on MacBook Air
Last post by Kurt7 -
I’ve tried the new Foobar2000/DSD capability on Mac with foo_input_udsd-0.0.3 and foobar2000-v2.7-
2024-07-08  and 2 channel DSD works great.  I have an exaSound e38 DAC and am unable to get multichannel DSD content to play correctly.

 When I set the Audio Midi Format on the Mac to “8 ch 32-bit integer 176kHz” and I play multichannel DSD, the bitrate on the DAC displays, 176.4kHz and all I get is hissing and very faint music in the background so it seems that the DAC is not seeing the stream as DoP.

As a test, using the same equipment and the trial version HQPlayer and setting HQPlayer to output DoP. HQPlayer takes control of the Audio Midi and changes the format to the proper number of channels and 176.4kHz and I get DSD (both 2-channel and multichannel) playing through the system with the DAC displaying 2.82MHz.

I’ve been in touch with the author of foo_input_udsd-0.0.3 and am wondering if anyone else has tried multichannel DSD on their Mac and if they are successful.

Thanks.

I don't warn people about the dangers of assigning keyboard shortcuts consisting of a single key without modifier. I don't need to because fb2k itself already does it...

Vinyl / Which is the best suggested tool to rip Vinyl in LOSSLESS quality
Last post by Marin30 -
Hello everyone, I am looking forward to rip a song I badly need from Vinyl to Digital, so I can listen to it on a digital way.
Can anyone please tell me which is the best tool I can use in MAC to rip from Vinyl in LOSSLESS quality?

I've done some research but wanted to make sure that I will do it once & in the best way :)
I read somewhere that a good tip would be to originally record it in 24/44 (so less noise is present) and then convert to 16/44.

Your answers & suggestion would be highly appreciated :)
