3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: help setting up Georgia-ReBORN please

Last post by TT - Today at 21:03

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!?

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.

@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.

there is something called milkdrop3. it works on ANY audio source.

Yea but I like in the UI as its on a tab below my playlist where I can pick other visualizers.

I have it working. I had to just export all the presets to the correct appdata roaming folder on a fresh x64 install. One thing I noticed is that if I right click on the tab of milkdrop it crashes foobar every time. I used to run an older integration of milkdrop and I think that used to have a right click menu where you could pick the option to go fullscreen.

One other issue at the moment, when I set foobar to always on top, when I double left click on milkdrop tab then it goes a type of fullscreen but foobar is still over the top. In the old version it would go fullscreen and over ride that. It looks like its in fullscreen windowless mode which is fine. I just have to remember if I want fullscreen to disable always on top.

Other than that its working perfect.
