Speech Codecs / Re: No ACELP.KELVIN encoder!

ACELP.KELVIN is cloaked at 8.718kbps but G.729 is cloaked at 8kbps. ACELP.KELVIN is ~10% larger than G.729!
That's because each G.729 packet is only 10 bytes. Adding the extra header byte to each packet is a ~10% increase in bitrate, but the extra header byte has no effect on the audio quality.
You should code a encoder from PCM WAV to ACELP.KELVIN because that's like G.729 but also supports stereo and compile to EXE that works with Windows 7. Post also the source code (as a ZIP file).

Support - (fb2k) / DSP Manager problems, 32 bit preview version
Last post by Squeller -
Hi, since a few versions I have massive DSP Manager issues.

I visit "Preferences - DSP Manager"
Load a preset "Playback"
Click "Apply" and "OK"

Foobar2000 shows and uses a different preset now in the DSP preset toolbar item. It's a stupid one with VST fx.

Lets say then I pick the "Playback" preset in the toolbar. Yes, it is displayed and used. But when I double click another track, the toolbar item is empty, no preset, and it uses the stupid one from before again.

In DSP Manager, I reset page. I deleted all DSP presets I do not need. Still if I change tracks manually, it shows no DSP preset. But the chosen DSPs are many, they are not part of an existing DSP preset. But Foobar2000 wants to use those at all cost.

EDIT: Solved, kind of. It's because of https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_playlist_attributes - I removed it and everything is fine. I am aware it has settings for DSP, (I set DSP to "Global") but still, it created above mess.

Then I deleted all presets. I pressed "Reset page". No active DSPs there. Great. Leave DSP manager. But on track change, again it uses 3 active DSPs. Better than 5 but where does it take them from?

EDIT: It's because of foo_playlist_attributes, discussion should continue there. https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,73783.new.html#new

When it comes to formatting code, a wishlist item:
Multi-line window allowing formatting with linebreaks and tabs (which are to be ignored during parsing).

(Of course it means you will have to ignore requests of parentheses-matching, syntax highlighting and the whole shebang, or at least an "open in external editor".)

Maybe GCC 14 has changed something. @KevinB52379 may check the binary compiled with MINGW/GCC 14.1.0 i attached.

I appreciate the effort....but no.  I was excited to try this new build with a recent update to Zoomtext, but no dice.

Only 3 versions successfully work and don't hang the system:
1.  Case's 32 bit build
2.  Joshua Chang's 2 builds he shared (clang and visual studio compile, I think?)

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: Library Tree Discussion

I switched from Facets to Library Tree recently and found an issue with my hotkeys, namely I've had play/pause bound to the spacebar and it's prioritized over typing in Library Tree's search function meaning I can't use any spaces in my search. The default search bars in foobar2000 and Facets let me type spaces normally without affecting playback. Is there a solution I just haven't found or do I just have to deal with it? Or any chance this could be changed in an update?
No, space hotkey will always be preferred over typing (unless I miss something, SMP doesn't block other hotkeys being applied, and this problem is present on all scripts).

But you can press Shift + Space and hotkey will be skipped. It will write the space fine on the panel too.

I see. Shift + Space is very helpful though, thank you.

General - (fb2k) / Raise the 30,000 characters limit?
Last post by macak -
Hi guys,

I am having a long complex syntax to display in the default user interface (a custom column) and even after reducing function names to 2 letters and calling them instead of using tag names and reducing all other function names to 2 letters (to save characters) I get over 30,000 character count. The problem is, when the column has a syntax over 30,000 characters, it won't show anything, it will just be an empty field.

So the question is, would it be possible to raise the maximum character limit to some bigger number?  For my syntax, 50,000 would surely be enough. Or if you don't want to change it as the default, could you make it optional (like put in the preferences options a check to increase the count to 50,000 characters)?

Thank you, all the best.
