*shrug* They use the same library, and are audibly identical to my ears. Are you sure you don't have DUMB installed somehow?

Yes, I do, but it's disabled. I tried removing it, and the glitch is still occurring in openmpt54 only. This is what the glitch sounds like.

And I'm saying that particular issue doesn't happen here. In fact, it sounds like it should be caused by a bug that was just fixed by 0.4.5 of the upstream library. Please verify from the Components page of Preferences that both "OpenMPT component" and "OpenMPT component (kode54 fork)" list version of 0.4.5.

Yes, both say 0.4.5.

What about your settings for my component?

Also, to be sure we're using the same test file, a sha256 sum.

E: Also, a screen shot of your Preferences -> Decoders page, showing the order of components listed and enabled.

Can't reproduce. Please replicate with a portable installation.

This is strange. I tried resetting the component's configuration by deleting the .cfg file in the foobar2000 configuration folder. That seems to have resolved the issue for some reason and the file plays normally now. Would love to know what caused that but either way, it's working.

I've found what causes the issue. It seems that it only happens when enable playback override in view>OpenMPT control is checked. If the setting isn't enabled, the issue doesn't occur and the file plays normally.

Thanks for helping me find this rather obscure bug. It has to do with the fact that the override was unmuting all channels on startup by default. Now the control, in interactive mode, will probe the interactive instance for which channels should be muted on startup, and will make the override control invert those channels, so they start as muted, and may be manually unmuted.

Yes, this song has a bunch of channels that are ordinarily muted, and apparently contain unwanted or later unused notes.

Big difference between DUMB and OpenMPT here: I don't think DUMB and the muting system I implemented ever allowed unmuting channels specified as muted by the file itself, whereas OpenMPT does allow that.

Quick question,
I have looping enabled (set to "1") and a fade time of 10000ms. I'm curious as to why the fades sound erratic, with an unusual 'fluttering' sound and speed increase? I can live with it, just that it's unexpected vs. a natural/smooth fadeout, and thought it could be a bug/maybe unintentional? Cheers.

Perhaps this does not belong here, but I need to ask: is there any solution regarding metadata tagging for tracker files that are read by this component? Plenty of tracker files don't have metadata for even basic info like an artist's name, but this information is of course quite useful when organizing music or sifting through a collection in foobar.
Is there any kind of workaround for this issue, or is it simply a limitation of the formats that must be accepted?

It's a limitation that I tolerated with esoteric audio formats for a long time. Then External Tags came along, and now I use those for everything, even for conventional audio formats that don't require them. Definitely recommend you do the same! I'm just waiting and hoping for foobar2000 mobile to support them, so that ie. tracker formats can have filled-out artist, album, title, cover art etc. there too.

Wow! I had no idea such a component existed, this is fantastic! This will absolutely solve my hurdles in organization with my tracker collection  :)

This is fixed now.

I see the latest foo_openmpt54 supports Amiga style filenames. nice.
could you fix info than displayed on the Codec column? thanks

Re: OpenMPT Module Decoder

Reply #66 –
I don't even set the codec field, the player does that. That means I have to run a second extension check on the file, to see if it has a matching prefix, before assigning that to the "codec" info field. I don't even know if OpenMPT has a simple format detection, I'd shove that in codec instead.

Hi there!
@kode54, I really enjoy using your version of the component. I especially like the feature “Dynamic info fields” and of course the "Pattern Display" (as DUI element). But in the case of a limited window size, not all channels are placed in the window of the visualization element "Pattern Display" (see picture).
Could you implement a scrollbar so that we can see all the channels in the limited window size?
Thanks in advance!

@kode54 thanks for this plugin! Can you please fix this issue: %channels% variable is not available while playing tracked music with OpenMPT.

Re: OpenMPT Module Decoder

There's nothing to fix for Kode54. You need to use OpenMPT Module Decoders internal variable %__mod_channels%.

which returns quantity of instrument channels, and I mean speaker channels. Oh well, got this fixed with $if(%channels%,%channels%,stereo)

Re: OpenMPT Module Decoder

Um, channels is supposed to be reported dynamically too, since it's also user configurable.

EDIT: It already does report channels, as dynamic info. You won't get a static channels info field from my component, because channel count is user configurable, and can be changed any time, while static fields are cached until the file itself is modified.

@kode54, thank you for your work!

I've noticed that sample rate setting doesn't work in some of your plugins including foo_openmpt54. In openmpt54 it is always 48000 Hz regardless of setting value.

The following plugins doesn't change sample rate as well:
  • 2SF Decoder
  • GSF Decoder
  • sidplay

That's because your sound output device is outputting 48 kHz. If I output anything else, foobar2000 will just transparently resample it to that anyway.
