3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_httpcontrol
Last post by regor -
You have to download where it says 'Source code', that's automatically generated by github, but I will add it to the instructions to make it clear.

The components are not mine, I just provide them because some devs like to nuke their components without any warning   ::)  If you need them or not depends on your use case, that's stated on the readme.
https://github.com/regorxxx/ajquery-xxx/blob/main/_readme.txt

Once you download the ajquery-xxx zip file, you have there the template folder , that you have to add it to foo_http_control folder per instructions. Then you can load it on any browser.

I have foobar controller on my phone and old "default" folder (containing" config, faficon, two htmls, jpg and readme) put into foo_httpconrtol_data and everything works fine. I just read that it is possible to make it change output device (this is the only option I miss).
Note you can NOT use the phone controller with the ajquery-xxx template, obviously. The app uses its own template. To change devices you will either have to use the web browser and the ajquery-xxx template (which has menus for that) or just send http commands  via brower/tasker/etc.

Anyway, the template is just for the browser; if people just want to change devices, as I told you, you can do it via command line.
https://bitbucket.org/oblikoamorale/foo_httpcontrol/wiki/Commands#markdown-header-cmdline
You need foo_run_main to be able to call dynamic main menu entries via command line (i.e. the device entries).

The command would be '/run_main:"Playback/Device/' + device name. For ex.
http://127.0.0.1:8888/ajquery-xxx/?cmd=CmdLine&param1=/run_main:"Playback/Device/Null Output&param3=NoResponse
Encoded would be
http://127.0.0.1:8888/ajquery-xxx/?cmd=CmdLine&param1=%2Frun_main%3A%22Playback%2FDevice%2FNull+Output&param3=NoResponse

The template part doesn't mind. You can change the ajquery-xxx part to any other template, since you are not using the template itself but just sending a command to the server.
127.0.0.1:8888/foobar2000controller/?cmd=CmdLine&param1=/run_main:"Playback/Device/Null Output&param3=NoResponse
127.0.0.1:8888/default/?cmd=CmdLine&param1=/run_main:"Playback/Device/Null Output&param3=NoResponse
...

If I would want to change devices using the phone, but also using the controller app... I would just create those URLs and add it to the browser as bookmarks. Bookmarks can be added to the phone desktop, so with a single click you could switch between some predefined devices...

Let me know if you have more doubts.

I am sorry to bother you but I do not understand your instructions/readmes etc.
I have foobar controller on my phone and old "default" folder (containing" config, faficon, two htmls, jpg and readme) put into foo_httpconrtol_data and everything works fine. I just read that it is possible to make it change output device (this is the only option I miss). I visited your site and thought that I might download some new version of what I have in the "default", I tried to download the ajquery-xxx but it redirected me to a site where I see "v0.97 - UI improvements" and can download " foo_run_main-1.0.2-V2.fb2k-component" and I just don't understant it. Where is the "ajquery-xxx" to download it? Do I need your other plugins to make it work? Yes I read the "readme.txt" on your site and am the more confused. I do not want to use SMP, playlist tools and anything else - I would just like to add output choice to the old oblikoamorale's "default". Is it possible? Please point me to the proper download place.

Seems like a component went missing, Thanks for the links. It's all working now,

Just updating to let people know this script is now fully compatible with ListenBrainz listens, so it works with both local and online listens (as long as you have your library tagged with MBIDs), also with Playcount 2003 component and makes use of local Biography images. In offline mode you only lose some playlist recommendations which are based on YouTube\ListenBrainz.

Sure layout can be improved (open to suggestions  :) ), mimics the one from 2023 and expands it; but at least the presentation and processing of the data is much better than the one Spotify offers. Specially this year which is pretty weak.

There have been a few improvements lately, still working on it, will release a new version soon. (meanwhile people can use the nightly with latest changes)

Latest changes:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

EDIT: I think I could also create a HTML interactive file, instead of a PDF report, which then could be opened with foo_webview or a browser. That would be cool.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: Routing data flows to Foobar via VB Cable (Windows 10)
Last post by Case -
You can verify foo_record working by right clicking on the entry and select Convert and save the output for example to a WAV file for a while. If you end recording with Abort-button, the resulting file will be deleted by default. You can cleanly end recording and get a working output file by using 'Playback' -> 'Stop recording' button.
You can then open the file for example in any audio editor to see what it contains. I probably shouldn't speculate further at this point, but it's easy to make foobar2000 silent by for example muting it in Windows mixer. Anything is possible.

Sample rate differences you keep mentioning sound like you use different settings in Windows mixer and in programs. Windows mixer settings are the only settings that matter for anything that doesn't do exclusive mode operation. With non-exclusive access all output gets resampled to sample rate set for output device, and when recording everything gets resampled to capture device sample rate.

Ok, you have apparently disabled access to microphone in privacy and security settings. Please fix permissions and try again.

Thank you Case :)
OK, it seems we are getting somewhere :)

Now there's no error from foobar. I see the data flow going and the timer going. Still no audio tho.
Tried changing foobar's Output virtual device among "Primary Sound Drive", "ASIO Fireface USB" and "Altoparlanti RME" ("RME Speakers") to no avail.

Notes:

1. In W10's Sound settings, the Cable devices are now all getting activity on v-meters.
2. I'm currently looping a song @ 48/24.
3. In VC's control panel both Input and Output Level's meters are active. Weirdly enough, S1-Cable Input shows 44.1/24, while S1-Cable Output shows 48/24 tho.

Is this of any help?

General - (fb2k) / Problems with the configuration of foobar2000
Last post by Jakeelee -
Hello,
I have some problems setting up my foobar2000 the way I want it to be. And since I'm not a natural born speaker, the help function doesn't really help me either. Maybe one of you can help me.

So problem number 1: I would like the CD title to only be shown once at this point (see attached screenshot)
Problem number 2: I would like the CD number to be shown in the yellow area if it is a multiple CD, because as it is now, the tracks from CD1 and then those from CD2 are simply shown one below the other.
Problem number 3: how can I display the column headings again?

Thanks a thousand times in advance

Audio Hardware / USB dac as pre-amp, how does it work
Last post by Tony Hubcaps -
Hello -
I'm curious about something...
I have a Toppng DAC and like many of these types of DAC it can be used in "pre-amp mode" or direct.
(It's a usb dac used with windows, foobar, etc).

Now, when I use it in normal or direct mode I can still control the volume through the Windows volume mixer,
and I have checked and found that this seems to be linked to the Topping driver - ie running ToppingUsbAudioCpl.exe
brings up a dialog screen where output levels, buffer size etc can be adjusted, and changing the volume here will
change the volume in the mixer and vice versa.

So am I correct in assuming that by doing this I am actually physically controlling the DAC as though it were in
pre-amp mode? (In which case, what's the difference !? ).

thanks in advance, and apologies for a possibly rather boring question!
