Same error here: Unable to open item for playback (Youtube Source: foo_youtube: server error (403) from rr3---sn-i5h7lnll.googlevideo.com | ffmpeg: Server returned 403 Forbidden (access denied) | foobar2000: Forbidden (403)): "www.youtube.com/watch?v=dB_CuFcJyXI"
was working fine last month with the same version of this plugin.
Some albums are quiet, some are clipping... Source is replaygained ...
Replaygain is applied by player when listening, never when processing. Anyway, carefully look SOX process output window (scrolling up to watch all songs), if you find clipping like this on any of them:
Hd:0.0 means no "headroom" Clip:2 means two samples were clipped Volume must be lowered for all songs of same disc, in my experience 0.1dB will do it with no headroom, 0.2dB for an extra safe margin. So my complete batch for those cases (in: FLAC, out: WAV) is:
Where are these listening tests published? I couldn't find anything. Also just pointing out that any deviation from correct and perfect linear phase filtering will lower the signal fidelity as its timing or waveform will no longer match original.
Linear phase filtering also lowers signal fidelity. Downsample will always affect audio and is listenable. I'm personal friend of him, he won 4 grammys, I asked him for advice for the best way to downsample. His advice was to avoid it, but if it must be done, his preference is for Intermediate phase, for him is the less disturbing when listening. He has TWO Pacific Microsonics ADDAC converters for AD and built custom DA that is better, he has the best ear that I know, and also builds speaker systems that beats 10x it's price point. Reference of PM: https://www.whatsbestforum.com/threads/a-addac-and-server-for-my-vinyl.646/ and: https://audiophilestyle.com/forums/topic/3282-pacific-microsonics-model-two/page/4/#comments
Usual problem with electronic engineers designer is that they not always have a good ear, and on paper things may be fine, but listening experience tells another thing.

@Defender Don't use anything unnecessary. Also, FxSound Audio Enhancer seems suspicious. If you are using FxSound Audio Enhancer and are having trouble, you will often see the answer "Delete FxSound Audio Enhancer".

@ Defender my foobar crashed after a couple of reinstall i remember you sent me your vu folder and all is back to normal so thank you
Also, since the Audio Device does not support DSD, please delete foo_input_sacd. Since foo_out_asio+dsd is not installed, Native playback is not possible. There is no point.
Eh?
My audio device does not support DSD. Foo_input_sacd is perfectly capable to output PCM from DSD source.
Do you use BitDefender? If so, remove it. Also, since the Audio Device does not support DSD, please delete foo_input_sacd. Since foo_out_asio+dsd is not installed, Native playback is not possible. There is no point.
