Last post by CapHCapH -I kind of figured you were looking at a wrong component. You should try Preview.
Thanks but if that is playing first seconds of tracks, not exactly what I'm looking for.
Anyway, found out I can easily add and remove the SKIP tag in multiple tracks with MP3Tag, so that problem solved

Last post by MrInsertName -Here's a highly experimental component that may achieve what you wish: https://foobar.hyv.fi/foo_retain_playtime.fb2k-component.Again, many thanks!! Works great. :)
Enable by adding 'Retain Playtime' DSP to the active DSP chain. Abuses decoder shim tech that Peter added for my Skip Track component.
I've found that the transitioning from one track to another, whether intentional or not, adds about a 2-second forward offset to the next track's retained duration (so it's just a little off), and changing the fading duration in manual track changing doesn't necessarily mitigate it. I tried finding the source code for the component online to try my hand at fixing it (if even possible :'D) but to no avail. I'm not really sure where you got this experimental component from, but (aside from the 2-second offset) it works wonders! 1000% better than not having the functionality in the first place.
My gratuity to you, fellow interweb user! :D

General - (fb2k) / Re: Mono Button on Toolbar
Last post by regor -https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?PHPSESSID=tar500hd8th3qdm3nce2aj9ebs&topic=96094.75
This component can be used to automatically select a DSP based on the output device.
Code: [Select]
$ifequal($strstr(%windows_output_device_name%,Headphones),0,,Headphones;)Then you add a chain, which is just a DSP preset, and add there the mix to mono. Whenever the device containing headphones in the name is used, it will use such DSP preset.
If you want to go further, you can make foobar to automatically chose an audio device by a priority list:
https://regorxxx.github.io/foobar2000-SMP.github.io/scripts/device-priority-smp/
For ex: use Blueetooth speaker if available, otherwise headphones, otherwise speakers, ...
There are also ways to assign an specific button to a dsp preset, but it involves SMP and I will not explain it. It can be done with this:
https://regorxxx.github.io/foobar2000-SMP.github.io/scripts/playlist-tools-smp/
So there is no need to manually select device/dsp at all.

DSP chain preset for normal listening may be saved as empy, or include some DSPs if needed.

It's possible to compare any audio codec to another one, regardless of technology.
