foobar2000 mobile / Re: Cannot advance tracks when connecting via UPnP over internet
Last post by setzer52 -

As mentioned above, have you checked Repeat (One Track) ON/OFF for other skins?
Try turning the setting on and then off.
I do not have any skins installed, I have only the stock app. There are no other places I have found that change this setting. The "Repeat" control on the playback controls screen also has no effect on this issue, whether on or off. I know that the Repeat control does function, since when I play local files, the control turns looping on and off. Again, it is only when playing a UPnP media server over the internet when these issues occur. While doing so, it doesn't matter if Playback Order is 'Default' or 'One Track,' it doesn't matter if the loop button on the playback control screen is on or off, when the current track ends, it will proceed to play the track again. This even occurs if the current track is the last track in a playlist and there would normally be nothing to play afterwards - even if looping is set to off and playback would normally cease, foobar2000 will repeat the track anyway.

All of this goes away when playing music from any other source. Air KEN, you say you have no issues in your environment. Do you use foobar2000 mobile to stream music from a UPnP library? From outside the LAN? Your particular use case of foobar2000 mobile may be why you're not seeing the issue that I am.

I assume you mean foo_convolve not "foo_convolver."  What do you mean by "won't install correctly?"  What do you do, and then what happens?

It is 32-bit only so requires 32-bit Foobar;  two other choices that can use 32 or 64 bit are foo_dsp_stereoconv and foo_dsp_convolver.

BTW, I just installed foo_convolve 0.3.3 on Foobar 1.6.18 and everything went fine:

Vinyl / Re: What's the ideal way to fix the pitch of a vinyl recording?
Last post by fooball -
I still say resample in Audacity (or whatever audio editor you like), it will be simpler in the long run.  Keeping to a standard sample rate will be compatible with more players, and the resampling will not be audible.  There are far greater distortions in the extraction of audio from vinyl.

What you might not realise is that unless you take special measures, the player will resample to its default sample rate anyway, that's how multiple audio sources can be mixed together to get (say) a system alert with a music source and/or a video track simultaneously.  Resampling is all over the place whether you like it or not.

Hey guys/gals!

I became a great fan of foo_convolver over the years and I go to great lengths to create the best possible filters with Acourate software. I don't see myself using another librarian, but recently I changed computers and the convolver won't install correctly.

I tried downgrading to 32-bit foobar2000 and it doesn't work either. Could anyone help? What's going on? What am I doing wrong?

I simply cannot live without this extra component.

AAC - Tech / Re: AAC frame lengths

Dun, dun, dun!

And that based on which psychoacoustic model??

Sorry, I couldn't understand you, can you explain a little more @includemeout ?
What I meant is that, as you know, MDCT/sub band-based lossy codecs are wild beasts built from the ground up around specific psychoacoustic models.

In fact, this community abounds with cases where even tweaking their settings excessively has been proven to wreak havoc on audio quality and end up causing more problems than the initial ones they were meant to solve - and I'm as guilty as the next guy for having tried a couple dozens of them - ugh! including -r3mix for MP3 and -mnt for customizing MPC's noise shaping back in 2001/02 and such and such.

So, I'm not trying to be disrespectful and doubt your programming skills and what-not, but what makes you think such changes won't be, for starters, an uphill task and that they will end up improving a codec as established as AAC?

It's a SMP bug with specific angles on rounded corners, which I simply handle as popups. It's funny I have had them many times and no one noticed. Just ignore it or just change the panel size if that happens. I will probably disable it for regular users.
