Support - (fb2k) / foobar2000 don't search subfolders of ..\..\music\mods folder ???
Last post by Skybuck -
This mods folder was kinda old, I just re-0created a new one, however foobar2000 refuses to scan the subfolders ?!

Isn't this weird ?! Anyway to make foobar2000 scan subfolders as well ?

Like I "sorted" some mods based on type/kind of music...

This is kinda pissing me off...

Basically there is a VHD mounted as J:\

And it contains J:\Music

and also J:\Music\Mods

and also

J:\Tools\Foobar2000\

So... doesn't matter if it scan J:\Music or ..\..\Music...

It refuses to scan anything behind J:\Music\Mods

Does foobar2000 only scan two layers deep by default ?!

How to make it scan deeper ?!?

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: JScript Panel script discussion/help

Hello @marc2k3 I've backed up my system and restored foobar2k with all my plugins to my new install, it was all good till I updated from 3.4.17 to 3.5.1... This piece of code seems to be broken which I'm not sure why?

Code: [Select]
if (currentPlaylist === 1) { command = "File/Random pools/Assign keyboard shortcuts/GensokyoRadio Algorithm [Favourites]: All pools"; }
else { command = "File/Random pools/Assign keyboard shortcuts/GensokyoRadio Algorithm [All]: All pools"; }
fb.RunMainMenuCommand(command);

This exact piece of code worked before and the Random pools plugin hasn't changed at all. I've attached an image to show it's at the same location. I've even discussed this setup over here before as well https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,110516.msg1036207.html#msg1036207

Also I wanted to let you know that while I downgraded to an older version to check, I've lost all my tags set by JScript3... Luckily I have a backup of my old foobar2k but it would be better if you could put a huge red box to prevent users from downgrading... it looks like when I downgraded in Playback Statistics page you mentioned about how changing the title formatting will just erase the entire database, looks like downgrading did exactly that which caused this issue... Any idea what could be the reason behind this as well?

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: NEW ESLyric v0.5 - an alternative lyric show component
Last post by ngs428 -
This would seem to me to be a bug specific to the Plex player (omitting the first line of lyrics saved with BOM) that should be addressed by the Plex developer, and not a cause for alarm for anyone who "accidentally" saved their embedded lyrics fom ESLyric that way.  I let ESLyric save into tag on a test leaving the BOM box checked (its default setting), and the lyrics were all there and perfectly readable starting with the first line of the panels in the AIMP and MusicBee players as well as the standards-picky Kid3 tagger.

Correct, it is a bug in Plex, but others may be using Plex and experience the same behavior.  I don't see it as an issue with ESLyrics, just more of an FYI for those who saved as +BOM and are using Plex. 

An issue was opened on their fourms at: https://forums.plex.tv/t/1st-line-of-sidecar-lyrics-omitted-when-lrc-file-saved-as-utf-8-bom/878789

A quick note for anyone who accidentally saved their lyric files as UTF-8-BOM.  In the lyric save settings page there is a check box for encoding saved files as "+BOM".  Can't remember if it was set that way as default, but the lyrics I saved that way were not showing properly in my Plex media player.  The first lyric line was being omitted

Validated News / Re: FFmpeg 7.0 "Dijkstra" released 2024-04-05
Last post by mycroft -
Could someone please explain what is wrong with new versions of ffmpeg? Should we use 6.1 or 7.0 or 7.0.1 or older versions? I heard that there were/are some personal issues but do those affect the product in any way?

It goes more into corporate network bubble with making personal networking between current devs and their business and various corporations.
Its mostly now low-effort, by state sponsored maintenance work over auto-detected issues in source code - of questionable outcomes and benefit.
Still extreme low effort is taken on fixing user reported regressions and bug fix/feature requests reports. And new features are limited or buggy in some usecases.
There is some cool and nice stuff, like cleanups and refactoring but net results is still negative.

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: Columns UI
Last post by musicmusic -
Thanks. As you stated, the configuration in the file still seems to be intact. That somewhat implies the problem is happening when reading the settings, rather than when writing them.

Could you provide a little bit more information about your hardware (e.g. what CPU do you have)? Could you also check if it still happens with a new portable installation of foobar2000 (with Columns UI and Album list panel as the only additional components)? (You can copy your foo_uie_albumlist.dll.cfg over to it when foobar2000 is closed.)

3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / crash with mixed file types
Last post by OtherSteve -
Hello,

Thank you very much for making a 64-bit version of this.  Installed and used it extensively this past weekend, and it performed extremely well with one exception:  if a folder contained files of mixed type (FLAC + MP3, for example), it crashed foobar2000.  Though probably not very common with single albums, I have multiple folders of mixed files downloaded from various online sellers that would love it if this could be corrected.  Appreciate the consideration.

Thanks,

Steve
