MP3 - General / 320 MP3 VBR to CBR
Last post by padre -
Hi. Could someone recommend a program for converting 320 kbps VBR mp3 to 320 kbps CBR mp3 without losing quality.
I read about mp3repacker but I can't find working link to download it (for Win XP) and I need some friendly GUI version because I'm not IT guy...

P.S. I don't need to reduse final file size - I don't care about it. I just need to keep original quality as much as possible.

*Sorry for my english

Development - (fb2k) / Redundant GUID declaration
Last post by Tam Lin -
The GUID declared in the function g_get_guid(), in the file dsp_sample.cpp, in the solution foo_sample, is ignored by the compiler (VS2022). Instead, the compiler recognizes the GUID declared in dsp_sample.h. The two declarations are in different namespaces.

Support - (fb2k) / Re: Foobar2000 v2.* playback sound quality lower than v1.X
Last post by fooball -
everyone can quickly make a test installing the second version of Foobar “portably” – 2 Foobar versions can be run parallelly – which should allow you to quickly switch between them.
But that wouldn't reproduce what you claim to be hearing.  It should only be necessary to capture the output from the PC (not the output from the speakers)... either electrically, or perhaps simply using Audacity to grab the output.  If you aren't up for that, then forget trying to convince the powers-that-be you have a valid point.

The principle of ABX is blind testing.  If you know what source you're listening to at the time you're listening, then psychological biases are in play and differences can be imagined most convincingly.

I have not run into this issue, and have not heard of anyone else running into a similar issue during the entire development of foobar2000 2.x.  One thing to note is that ASIO tends to bypass Windows Audio Mixer settings, so make sure that the max volume levels for fb2k in the mixer are at the same level (100%) for both installations.  Also ensure that you have the latest audio drivers for your system.

If you use ASIO why would you need audio drivers for?
Everything is converted in your DAC specially if you output via USB.
