foobar2000 without gapless playback would be a joke, so yes it's supported. If not, it's a bug.

MediaStreamSource (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/windows.media.core.mediastreamsource.aspx)
MediaStreamSource seems to be designed for the playback of all kinds of media in general and also supports DRM.

Xaudio2 (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh405049%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396)
Xaudio2 seems suited more for games.

Post by: Chibisteven on 2016-05-03 22:00:25
Whatever one works right on your mobile hardware and the nature of what you're trying to play (which is irrelevant with foobar2000 mobile because it doesn't support DRM).  Stick with the default option.  If it works poorly or not at all use the other one.

For the record I don't have a Windows 10 phone.  I simply tried it out on my Windows 10 Pro 64-bit Tower PC which is a 5 year old Windows 7 era machine.  :)

microSDXC card. Mine is just 64GB but you can get 128GB/200GB variants now.

I suppose streaming is an option if you have the data allowance or have access to wifi but I generally don't.

Google Play Music works pretty well for me, I haven't used anywhere near the 20GB/month my subscription includes.

I could fit my entire collection on a 256GB SDXC card, though, with plenty of room to spare.

  • No network support for internet radio streams (private home servers be damned), VLC for Android does support this.
  • Some album art doesn't load in the mobile version where in the desktop version it does.
Non loading album art - send details in a private message please.
Private home servers, I know this may not be the most convenient option, but it can talk to foo_upnp over the internet - just publish your foo_upnp service by configuring user/password and forwarding the port, then specify http://user:password@server-address/ in user specified UPnP servers.

Neither is higher quality. If either was inherently better, the other would come with a big fat warning or be unavailable.

The reason why the modes are switchable is that each is broken differently on different Windows devices. I made the known working configuration the default, but the ability to switch might be helpful when testing insider builds of Windows, in case the default configuration quits working properly.

XAudio2: Do not use on phones. Stops playing when the app is no longer in foreground.

MediaStreamSource: Works OK on phones but broken on regular Windows 10 (desktop/tablet) - lags and causes extreme memory usage if the PCM stream format matches windows mixer format.

All formats are played gaplessly. We use own demuxers for most formats - just like in regular foobar2000 for Windows desktop. Only packet-to-PCM decoding is handled by Microsoft codecs instead of FFmpeg.

Note that Microsoft codec interop code was copied over from Boom (http://perkele.cc/software/boom) so it's pretty well tested.

Icecast + Shoutcast (enough to cover the bases).

Not sure how the client side works for these.  Although it be nice if there was another streaming protocol in existence that supported multi-channel audio like 7.1 and functioned as a broadcasting stream like Icecast and Shoutcast do.  Seems only UPnP allows it but it's not really a broadcast type of thing as a device getting disconnected stops the streaming which is impractical for multiple devices in different rooms.

Not exactly streaming but it would be really interesting to be able to use google drive; dropbox; etc. servers as content providers to listen to music; reading the files directly from the user accounts. There are other android players out there featuring that although really limited in other fields.

I had problems submitting 6.1.6 compatible build to the appstore due to some nonsensical startup screen compliance issues and moved up to 8.0 which simplifies things. I'll figure it out eventually, it's just an extremely tedious task, as the error messages are cryptic and every submission attempt requires full recompile of the app which takes quite a few minutes.

If your album art is folder.jpg and marked as hidden+system, Universal Windows Apps cannot access it, and there's no way around it becuase someone at Microsoft thought it was a cool idea.

Honestly, I was a long-time Microsoft supporter before I wrote this app, now I'm a sworn enemy of Microsoft and anything they released after 2010.

Hi

great, thanks.

What I noticed:
In settings/Media Library I can't scroll down when I have more directories than the display height can show
(in my case I have different library folders for: Deutsch, Krautrock, Klassik, Folkrock, Rock, Ital./Franz., Soundtracks, Eigenes Zeug, Hörspiele.)
I have spread them over two cards, that is the reason I made spearate entries for each style, otherwise I had two groups, one for the internal card and one for the external)

A question: is it possible to go back to the playing screen from the library without playing another file ?

Cheers
Alex

Hi,

I used the Android version for about an hour and had 3 or 4 dropouts so far.

this is an Samsung Galaxy S3 with Android 4.1.2, 64 GB internal memory and an external 200 GB sd card. I was listening to something from the external card. I have not listened so far to something from the internal card, so I can't say if that happens there too.

I've noticed that the decode speed test auto-detects the number of cores - and ignores cores that were disabled at some point in the installation process (I guess). enabling all 8 cores on my phone increases all of the decode rates by a factor of between 9 and 10, I have not conducted a "proper" test yet though.

Thanks to silence I'll let myself answer my own question then. Android version can play these streams, but one have to go to "Tools" => "Playback controls" => "Play location". Hopefully in the future I will be able to manage streams in the playlists and not play them in this very odd way.

Just trying it now.

Android 4.1.2 on an old Samsung SIII Mini and a 32GB SD card. ~3200 tracks in different formats. (mostly mp3 and m4a)
Library scan was quite fast and seems to appear correctly, except one thing:
- In the Genre category, it seems that I cannot see any track that doesn't belong to an album. Basically, that option only lists albums and tracks of those albums. I tend to use this option to play random tracks of a style, depending of my mood.
In contrast, the advanced search for year (btw, nice that it also groups by decades), has the option to see "all tracks" and then these no-album tracks appear.

Also, I would like to mention that I initially didn't know how to return to the playback controls when going back to the browser while the song is playing. It seems the correct option is going to the tools screen, and there locating the "show playback controls". But since the launching screen is the browser, and that it's the place where one usually is, I missed it.
Maybe it is that I am used to the Android version of Rockbox where the initial screen is a menu with several options, including going to the playback controls.

And since I'm mentioning Rockbox, another feature that I use a lot is changing the song speed. In foobar2000 desktop i have the soundtouch dsp (UI could be better but it generally fulfills my needs). Do you think that a similar DSP could be built into foobar2000 Mobile? (And being able to access it in as few clicks as possible).

Hello,

Thanks for the excelent app.

I am testing on Android.

Please let me start thanking again for the excelent accessibility support in the desktop version. Foobar 2000 is keyboard accessible on all the desktop version of Windows I know of, the playlist view features custom accessibility implementation so except of enhancing performance of super class ATL controls it not only preserves its accessibility support but making it work as good as possible.

Most of the accessibility stuff has been transfered to the Android app as well.
Majority of the controls are clearly labeled, however there are a few exceptions where image buttons don't have textual so called contentDescriptions.
This includes Search and Tools buttons on the main window where library browser is displayed.
The same can be said about lockscreen notification controls. I guess these are iconized buttons missing textual contentDescriptions.
Similarly some buttons on the Tools window mainly in the Settings and the DSP manager where they are expanding more settings are lacking this textual contentDescription.
These are all minor nits and I believe these can be easily addressed. If it may help, I can be more concrete here.

However either I am not clever enough or there are more serious issues when showing now playing screen (the screen which shows when tapping show play controls on the Tools window). This does not appear to be standard Android window and I don't appear to be able to navigate it using built-in android screen reader Google Talkback.
Can you please try to describe this screen to me a bit so I can at least find out what I might be missing?

Up to now I was only able to discover a library with its multiple views and search.
Is there a way to display the current playlist or multiple playlists like on the desktop version or this has been reworked to fit more with the mobile experience?

Have you formed an opinion on the accessibility topic such as what I'm trying to talk about here? Is it likelly you will be able to address some of the accessibility issues in the future?
Have you received some accessibility related feetback or am I the first one bringing it up?

Generally speaking all three platforms, IOS, Windows and Android have built-in accessibility support, IOS and Android devices are very popular among blind users and people with other impairments I would say.
If there is a way to cooperate here please do count me in.

Finally I have sent a crash report. I have launched the app, realized there are no tracks in my /sdcard/music folder, I've browsed by looking at file system tree to the /sdcard/Downloads folder, started to play a single not tagged MP3 file from there. After listening for a short while I have stopped the playback by using the Stop button found on the Tools window (the Window which shows up when tapping the next button on the top to the right of the Search). When the playback was stopped from the Tools window I have attempted to inwoke a context menu and right at this point Foobar 2000 has crashed. I'm running Android 6 on an LG G3.

Greetings

Peter

iOS Testing, iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.1

I have a question regarding the use of UPnP Server and playing files from the Documents Folder.

When playing music sent to the Documents Folder, the App only shows the filename. No artwork or tags show up. Is this a limitation of the software or is it a UPnP Server issue? The file was transcoded from lossless ALAC to mp3 and downloaded to the iPhone. Does UPnP not carry the mp3 tags over or is the issue the App not reading tags in files stored in the Documents Folder?

The music file plays perfectly.

I am very interested in that too.

Will the Universal App replace the Win32 version at some point? or have more of the desktop features? I would love to run a RaspberryPI Windows MiniPC with Foobar2000 as the Music Server and playback statistics synced across all devices.

Universal will not replace the desktop version, they are quite different, not a one fits all design.

The syncing app is undecided at the moment.

So, Foobar2000 has no streaming support other than UPnP?  If I want to access my music when I am not at home, I need a different solution?
The feature set is not frozen yet.

Feel free to suggest what streaming protocol you'd like us to support, it will be looked into.

It's a feature used on a lot of Android devices in this household to access music files shared from network attached storage.  Neutron Music Player allows this.  Most Android File Managers can access the NAS.  Hopefully you can find a library that would do a lot of the work in making this feature possible.

A little addendum to the reply #50. It appears now playing screen is not very accessible with a screen reader when running IOS version (http://forum.foobar2000.com/forum/showthread.php?160-VoiceOver-and-Foobar-on-IOS) as well.
I believe this is something that will be eventually looked into after more critical issues affecting more people will be addressed.

Two remarks: Using the Android version, the things I miss most (obviously) is a 'now playing' view (the context -> last list view doesn't get me back there, but leads to something that looks like a crash), and the ability to display and sort by non-standard performer information fields (such as %performer%, %conductor%, %ensemble%, etc.)

Perhaps the version of android matters? FWIW, I'm on lollipop 5.1.1.

edit: I do have an annoyance with the album browser which seems to be a design choice. Why is an album title like The Greatest filed under G ?? I guess you're sorting using something like $stripprefix from the desktop version and while I can understand why some users might like it for artists, it makes no sense for albums at all.

Hi, thanks for the free app!

I just tested it 10min for fun on my Galaxy S3 (CyanogenMod 13), it worked nicely with opus, apple aac, flac & wv ... it worked flawlessly with splitted files with tags but I think the library relies too much on tags, as at first I had trouble to find the flac CDImage+cue without tag metadata that I scanned ... it took me a while to realize it was in the "unknown" category (... which is logical as it didn't browse the CUE sheet but not intuitive ... I first thought it didn't find my CDImage.flac at all & was wondering if it was a bug until I finally found it).

So far I was an AIMP4 user & I will keep using AIMP for now because from what I have seen I badly miss the CUE sheet support.

Is CUE sheet support planned ? Is it a feature of the Pro version ? (Sorry I didn't follow the development closely, I was already happy with AIMP for my basic use) ... I mean on desktop, the advanced CUE sheet support is the very reason why I switched from Winamp 5 to F2K ten years ago ... so I was slightly disapointed by the apparent lack of CUE sheet support personnaly.

Also when F2K Mobile will grow mature & become stable & complete, will there be a website with links to download the APK outside the store ?

Finally, how do you pin the widget (if there is one) on the wallpaper ? It's not in the widget list. I mean a "sort of widget" appears in the top menu & in the front page when you wake it up from sleep. But that is not really a traditional widget, it's more a control bar integrated to the system.

Anyway thks again. I will definitely check how it evolves in the future.

Private home servers, I know this may not be the most convenient option, but it can talk to foo_upnp over the internet - just publish your foo_upnp service by configuring user/password and forwarding the port, then specify http://user:password@server-address/ in user specified UPnP servers.

I tried this and it connected to the instance but threw a DNS error for me when I attempted to play something.  Initially tried with a URL, but it did the same using the IP.

Thanks for all your efforts.

In the times of common 32-128 gb cards I do not think that massive streaming support over internet is important. Can be used at home for WiFi playback, though. Still, using memory card is probably safer in terms of playback quality and better for battery life.

Yes spoon has guessed it correctly. Occassionally playing files where there are no tags. Also browsing internal / external storage file systems would be enough, I'm not looking for ability to browse the root file system if it makes a difference.
Perhaps in the future there will be a way to share a file or a folder to Foobar 2000 or even share m3u playlist from a web browser to Foobar 2000 via standard Android share menu. In that case ability to browse the file system won't be needed at least I won't miss it.

I don't like to sound like troll, but I would be extremelly happy to hear you are at least able to acknowledge my earlier posts on accessibility. Might you be able to look into that later on please or is further input from me or anyone with more expertise needed?

Well, I answered my own question. UPnP will send mp3 files over with tags, but does not transfer tags when transcoding from ALAC to MP3.

Thank you for your hard work on the Android app. Could I please ask the following two questions, which pertain to features I use frequently in the main desktop application:

1. Do you intend to add support for Foobar Title Formatting language in the future? Will it be possible to customise how track information is displayed in a way similar to the desktop application?

2. Do you intend to add support for organising tracks by tags other than artist, song, genre, etc? I ask as some of my music uses custom tags -- these can be searched/filtered within the desktop application, but it would seem not within the Android app?

First of all, congrats and thanks!

I played a bit with the Android version (on CM12.1/Android5.1) and here are my findings/questions:

1. I noticed that gapless works flawlessly, which is great and not typical for Android players. Does it come at the cost of higher CPU/battery use?

2. If I (1) browse with the folder structure, (2) play a song and then (3) go back to the list of folders and then (4) go back to the folder that has the playing song... there's no playback sign next to the playing track and if I tap on the track it starts from the beginning. Same if it's paused.
This seems like a bug (or at least it's not consistent with the tag based browsing).

3. Feature request: It would be nice if (optionally) the track number was shown on the main playing screen and on the lock screen.

I'm enjoying the app. One problem is that in Windows 10's All Apps list, the UWA and Win32 versions both show "foobar2000", and it's difficult to distinguish between them. Happily, when both are added to the Start menu, the icons are different. Perhaps the All Apps listing should show something different for each version?

I rarely listen to music on any mobile device but since it is foobar2000 and AFAIK it is the only free app to play wavpack files on SD card on my non windows 10 upgradable Lumia 520 I decided to give it a try.

It even has the DSP manager similar to the desktop version! Knowing my Lumia resamples everything to 48k like those ancient Creative cards I added a resampler and here is the RMAA results.

As usual I will not talk about audio quality without doing any ABX test. I am just curious to see the graphs ;)  The frequency response ripples in "src on" is not caused by the resampler since it happens with native 48k tests and other media player apps as well.

What a great measurement of Lumia! Thank you! If I read the results correctly it makes sense to use the resampler on Lumias. Do you know what is the cause for worse DAC performance at 44.1 without DSP? The fact that Lumias resample everything to 48k - how have you determined it and does it mean that WASAPI kind of interface is not available there, e.g. output from foobar at 44.1 gets resampled by Windows Mobile/Lumia engine if not resampled by foobar itself?

Not just Lumia most of the devices with telephony uses 48k as are most bluetooth headphones. WASAPI is available in both Windows phone 8 and Windows 10 Mobile though only shared mode as exclusive mode wont make sense in a communication device.

Then it however kind of decreases the importance of WASAPI as if shared mode is set to 48k by default then 44.1k content cannot be played without resampling as on desktop through exclusive WASAPI can.

Resample or not depends on the hardware's clocking capability, not depends the API. In fact I can let my X-Fi card resample even when using WASAPI exclusive mode so I don't even think it is as "bullet proof" as some people think. The same applies to ASIO and KS mode as well.

Yes I know. But if Lumia hardware is set to 48k by default (as far as I know it cannot be set by the user the same way as it can be set in desktop W10) and WASAPI exclusive is not available, then WASAPI shared and also common playback (MME or DS or whatever) will resample to that rate. That is why was asking my last question.

I'm using it on Android device. Before I used Poweramp, but not anymore! I'm happy with the mobile Foobar, but of course there's more to be wants. As I wrote at the Google play store, the sound is amazing. It's closer to sounding of my cd player Phillips. I'm using it, when I run at the stadium, as well. The simple interface and the big simbols are very usefull when i'm running and my hand is shaking. Adore the Replay gain control, it's very usefull during the cardio training because it unifies the sound levels of all my tracks, and it is not nessesary to touch the volume control constantly.

Just a suggestion, I can't see the "repeat" option! It will be nice if this option will be available. Also "A-B repeat" could be very useful. Often I like to listen only certain part of the track. Also, it will be good to have a "reset" button at the Replay gain menu. When I adjust the pregain slider, it is difficult to turn back it to zero.

And again, would like to say a big Thanks to the developers  :)

Seems logical. However, on desktop windows you can to some extent bypass the Windows  resampler by setting sound card and wasapi shared to the same frequency as the majority of the content you have (typically 44.1 kHz). On Lumia - if what the others measured is true - it is fixed to 48 kHz by default, so to play without Windows  resample, you have to utilize foobar with DSP Foobar/SSRC resampling to 48 kHz.

Pretty useless but since it can at least play flac, a basic requirement for running RMAA (lossless) I also tested it two years ago. It doesn't have a DSP manager like foobar but it's 44.1k result is obviously different from foobar.

This makes me think about some of the ridiculously poor results from GSMArena are not related to incompetent hardware, they can be OS or app specific. Also I hope they can benchmark the actual output level or voltage of different devices. Now my Xiaomi's RMAA result seems prettier than the Lumia but in fact the Xiaomi is so quiet which is a big disadvantage. They also mentioned it in their review but without actual figure it is hard to compare with other devices.

Thank you for analysis. Still it seems to have higher intermodulation distortion at 44.1 kHz than at 48 kHz, but has better parameters than foobar at 44.1 kHz. Maybe has default internal resampler, or it utilizes different interface ?

It would be interesting also to test default Groove player for those values.

My Lumia 520 is the oldest Lumia only has 512MB RAM and it cannot be upgraded to windows 10, the build-in music app doesn't support any lossless format so I can't even measure anything with meaningful result.

Thanks for all the feedback.

Regarding bad output on Lumia devices-

Starting with the current version - 1.0.23/1.0.24 - we only use XAudio2 output, as the other mode - MediaStreamSource - turned out to have massive bugs. However XAudio2 seems to have been made primarily for games, so I would not be surprised if it has other behaviors that are undesirable for us.
There's still the WASAPI option that has not yet been enabled in a public build because it requires app-side resampling. I'll look into enabling it for the next update.

Thanks for all the effort!!! And the output with resample to 48k is already very good. Only 44.1 according to measurements of the others is worse.

By the way, if using WASAPI does Lumia support 44.1 natively ?

I checked out the windows version and was hoping for EQ to be present in the dsp. Unfortunately it isn't.
So... a feature request
please put a custom EQ, at least in the windows version, if it's even possible.

Windows 8.1/10 mobile has an EQ which goes only up to 7kHz. Which is bullshit in my honest opinion, and i have no idea why it's even there.
I don't usually listen to music on my winphone, but if there was a proper EQ, i might start doing that.

Will the ability to sync files/playlists/playback statistics/ratings with the desktop app be implemented in the final feature set?

This is also utterly essential for my usage. I am thankful for everything you have done so far and don't want to sound demanding, just letting you know what some desktop users are looking for in a mobile app. I have been maintaining the same playback statistics for six years due to foobar desktop's excellent functionality for such. But since there is no plugin or app anywhere to sync between Android and foobar, I am totally screwed over in ever being able to conveniently listen to music on my phone, and have been stuck either buying old iPods to use with foo_dop or manually adding playcounts to every song I have listened to on my phone, neither of which is a pleasant solution. I would pay so much money for foobar mobile playback statistics syncing in relation to my income that it's embarrassing how badly I want it.

Please help,

I am now using Mobile FooBar 2000 on my windows 8.1 Lumina 520 phone  . This is so superior to all the previous media players I've tried . I have a mix of FLAC / WMA lossless 16/44.1 and 24/192 Hi-Rez audio on my 64 GB micro SD card ( next phone Win 10 model 650 will have 200GB micro SD slot ).
The next purchase will be a headphone DAC amp with external battery combo for using USB output bypassing headphone jack.
This will allow me to listen to 24/192 through my NAD HP50 Viso headphones...

And does Lumia's DAC support 44.1 KHz through WASAPI at the same quality as 48 kHz? Or does it play through "WASAPI shared" to 48 kHz hardware sampling rate?

@lido

If your tracks have no album artist, yet different artists, then you need to have the compilation tag set to 1, this will group all those tracks to the single album. Why does the player not do this automatically? because if you had 'Greatest Hits' (multiple albums) then they will correctly be listed separately, even without album artist set.

How do I get album art for my albums in an automatized way?
I converted a bunch of music. Only two have album art after I copied the folder to my phone. (On of them happens to have a folder.jpg or such, the other doesn't but I guess the m4a-s might have album art embedded)

I have album art for most of my music, which I have in a dedicated folder. Both default UI and columns UI is set to find them. So they're readily available. Apparently transfer attached pictures doesn't work in this case, for whatever reason.
I imagine that's what copied the album art for that single album. Although I have no idea where it was transferred. It's not in the folder of the album.

That's a really unfortunate limitation, in this case.

That's too bad also. I expected foobar to be able to transfer the album-art it's already able to load and show.

Unlike the desktop version there doesn't seem to be a feature to define where to load album art from. So nothing left but copying every single image file one-by one?
Title: Re: Foobar2000 (Mobile Edition)
Post by: marc2003 on 2016-06-16 01:32:22
Well it's no accident your image files live in an entirely different folder structure away from your audio files. This is something you must have been very conscious of when doing it??? You can hardly bemoan foobar not being able to manage these non-audio files.

Anyway, you could batch attach the art to all files as the dialog supports the same patterns as the artwork preferences OR you could probably knock up a batch file using Copy names on the playlist right click menu. If you don't see it when right clicking, hold Shift first. You can configure the text generated for each playlist entry under File>Preferences>Advanced>Display>Legacy title formatting settings>Copy command. Here you could use the windows copy command with the artwork preferences as the source and the containing folder of the audio file as the destination - $directory_path(%path%).

edit: I'd test this on just a few entries first and limit the playlist to one track per album. A query using tracknumber IS 1 should do.

Naturally. It's the only practical way of having album art. (They're in a single folder though, not a structure)

You can hardly bemoan foobar not being able to manage these non-audio files.
And why is that? It's a built in feature. It could just as wall copy album art that it already knows where to find and how to load with the "transfer attached picture" option.
Or at least not make the "Copy other files" files feature so crippled to not support absolute paths. That way I could use the stuff I have set in the album art section separated by a ";". It's almost as if hindering copying album art was a goal... :)

Anyway, you could batch attach the art to all files as the dialog supports the same patterns as the artwork preferences
Could you elaborate on this? How do you propose I do that? Which dialog? I found nothing in the converter setup that can do this.

I'll investigate this. Although the last part I don't understand. So I should add stuff to the "copy command" section. But doesn't that just copy text on the clipboard? Also how to handle multiple output folders for all the albums?

Sane people, like me, are not averse to putting album art in each folder alongside each album. Obviously that's what the current converter options for copying files are for. If you use file operations, you'll also notice it has options to move/copy all non-audio files in all folders that contain your music files. May I remind you of your "only practical" comment?

Sorry I wasn't more clear. Yes, this puts text on the clipboard. It would be up to you to save it in notepad with a .bat/.cmd extension. You'd be looking at generating text for each entry something like...

Code: [Select]
copy "source" "destination"

Title formatting here is fully supported so "source" would be your album art pattern and "destination" would be $directory_path(%path%) - which always gives the full path to the containing folder for the current file. Whether this would work or not might depend on you not having an insane filing system which I dare not ask about...

Foremost it requires extra work, especially when you have multiple variants of the same album. This way any file, anywhere on the system will have it's album art showing if it's present in the album art folder.
Obviously. Also obviously this feature was ignored or forgotten.
I fail to see while copying couldn't work for an arbitrary folder. Also it could be problematic when you don't have all the albums in separate folders, for whatever reason.

This doesn't seem to work either. It claims the syntax is the same as "Display Preferences", but it isn't.
It won't even allow me to paste all the stuff, only one line. If have have to do this process for every line I'll die of old age (slight exaggeration) before I'm finished.
Enter just starts the process, which is also horrible since it claimed the same syntax one would expect to be able to start a new line in the text field.
There's no hint provided for adding multiple entries, if it's even possible.

My search patterns section is like this:

Alright, it come to trying this, it seems. What do you mean by insane filing system?
Anyway It looks like something that should work, provided cmd doesn't fail me with non-latin characters as it usually does.

Edit:
On second thought... This would also require me to run it for every entry of the album art section. A new batch file for every one.

I've just written a script for the foo_jscript_panel component that could do what you want but it requires any version of windows vista or later. XP/2003 users need not apply.

The one requirement is that the output filename is a constant like cover/front/etc...

Follow the component installation instructions here and add a panel to your layout.

https://github.com/19379/foo-jscript-panel/wiki/Requirements-&-Installation

Now right click the panel>Configure and add this code.

Code: [Select]
var filename = "cover.jpg"; //Static filename only. Title formatting is NOT SUPPORTED. Must end .jpg
var folder = "$directory_path(%path%)\\";
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");

function on_mouse_lbtn_dblclk() {
var items = plman.GetPlaylistItems(plman.ActivePlaylist);
var count = items.Count;
if (count == 0)
return;
items.OrderByPath();
var current = "";
for (var i = 0; i < count; i++) {
var temp = fb.TitleFormat(folder).EvalWithMetadb(items.Item(i));
if (current != temp) {
current = temp;
var f = current + filename;
var img = utils.GetAlbumArtV2(items.Item(i), 0);
if (img && !fso.FileExists(f))
img.SaveAs(f, "image/jpeg");
}
}
fb.ShowPopupMessage("Done!");
}

It is blank white panel with no UI. Just double click to run and it should popup a message when done. Test on small subset of files first. It may appear foobar is not responding if testing with large collections so be patient and wait.

Because it uses the same core functions as the default artwork panel, you don't need to worry about configuring it with any of your patterns.

Assumptions:

all files you want to process are in the active playlist
one image per destination folder
you don't want to overwrite existing images

png files will be saved as jpg no problem. The only issue would be loss of transparency but I'd hope you don't have that in album covers.

edit: just realised the script wil save your stub image if you have one defined, You can prevent that by replacing this line of code...

Code: [Select]
var img = utils.GetAlbumArtV2(items.Item(i), 0);

with

var img = utils.GetAlbumArtV2(items.Item(i), 0, false);

BASSMIDI would require both BASS and BASSMIDI to be licensed for this project, for all supported platforms. Since this will (eventually) be a commercial product, but we don't know whether it will exceed the shareware product license, and since that license only covers one platform at a time anyway, we're talking multiple licenses, or one expensive all platforms license. And I think that licensing also is limited to a single developer.

libfluidsynth, and glib, and gthread. I already danced that way before I discovered BASSMIDI, years ago. Plus, I don't think they ever integrated my dynamic sample loading support. And they definitely do not support compressed SoundFonts. So you're talking loading a unique, full copy of your one SoundFont into memory for each MIDI file you play, then unloading it again between files. I'm sure there's a better way, but I don't think their code supports multiple instances sharing the same SoundFonts, or carefully threading the load/unload cycles. Plus, the last time I used it, I had to hack around because the reference counters on the samples got incremented one too many times somewhere in the myriad of routines, so it wouldn't unload the sample data on close and required further hacks to forcibly unload sample data.

I was trying to use SWYH http://www.streamwhatyouhear.com/
This is software to stream sound from PC to mobile device via UPNP.
foobar2000 mobile (android) displayed streams but was unable to connect and play. Other upnp players works, but with significant buffering delay, I was hoping foobar2000 would allow me to use my android phone as remote headphones when watching movies from PC. Obviously that would require minimal buffering delay and I believe foobar2000 is capable to have these setting :) Thank you.

Hi!

If anyone has album art in a dedicated folder and you feel neglected by foobar like me, here's a (somewhat crappy) way to transfer album art.

With foo_textools, you can add something like this:
Code: [Select]
XCOPY /Y "e:\albumart folder\%artist% - %album%.png" "d:\destination folder\folder structure added in converter\cover.png*" & XCOPY /Y "e:\albumart folder\%artist% - %album%.jpg" "d:\android-albumart\folder structure added in converter\cover.jpg*" & XCOPY /Y "e:\albumart folder\%artist% - %album%.jpeg" "d:\android-albumart\folder structure added in converter\cover.jpeg*"

Then paste the whole lot in a .bat file add appropriate codepage in the first line with "chcp". Then run it. Then copy them to the music folder
It won't work however if you have characters outside the codepage you're using. (also it'll pointlessly copy the same thing a bunch of times)

So I'm trying to get mobile foobar-android to connect to my desktop foobar using bubbleupnp server. This does not seem to work although I've had it working for years using the awesome bubbleupnp app.

I can go into settings and add my external facing IP address and port number, but nothing happens. There's no way to test the connection and it never shows up in the list of UPNP servers. I'm not actually sure if it's doing anything in that dialog. There's also not a way to specify a l/p which I think would be needed in some cases.

I also added the server like:
http://mordred:password@mordredfoobar.com:58050 and still nothing happens.

Any ideas? Is this feature just not fully implemented yet?

BubbleUPnP Internet connection does not work with stock UPnP clients like foobar2000 Mobile. You'll probably have to use Bubbleguuum's Android app to connect to that.

I may be wrong. You'll have to wait for a definite answer, and if it's not supported, I'm sure Bubbleguuum will help, if it's in his interest.

I think the DSP chain order is inverted on the android app. I noticed some clipping despite having advanced limiter enabled. I moved it from the top (where it was by default) to the the bottom of the chain and the clipping was gone.
Title: Re: Foobar2000 (Mobile Edition)
Post by: Nimos on 2016-11-03 22:28:18
Isn't that how its supposed to be? Limiter at the end of the pipeline and the audio flows from top to bottom?

Post by: Northpack on 2016-11-03 22:42:33
I think on the PC it is the other way arround. Moreover, it wouldn't make any sense to put the limiter on top by default if that would be the case.

It's the same on PC as mobile is.

Like the PC version the start of the DSP chain is at the top and the end of it is on the bottom.  There's no difference here and most other audio players that allow multiple DSPs work this way as well.

You are confused.

If you noticed that the chains are arranged in alphabetical order by default, you would've figured out why "Advanced Limiter" is at the top.

Microsoft, Google, Apple prohibit app makers from letting user created code being used in their apps.

1. Probably not possible due to legal reasons.
2. Doable.
3. Not possible without a decent tagging standard for downmixing across multiple formats or configurable options.  Issues can actually be created if used incorrectly.

Hi,
Those 3 "would be nice"-s are available for foobar2000 on windows OS.
I thought it would be nice for small android device [smartphone] users to gain access ,using the analog stereo out,to the "surround world".....kinda:
multichannel file--downmix to stereo DPL II---output to analog stereo--decode in a surround receiver[device] at home or in  car using the build-in DPL II decoder[this one is present in 99% of surround receivers].
Actually all this is available if using a windows 8 or 10 tablet as playing device.

If I recall correctly, %added% is provided by the Playback Statistics component.

iOS Testing, iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.1

I have a question regarding the use of UPnP Server and playing files from the Documents Folder.

Any solution for this!!!!!!

When playing music sent to the Documents Folder, the App only shows the filename. No artwork or tags show up. Is this a limitation of the software or is it a UPnP Server issue? The file was transcoded from lossless ALAC to mp3 and downloaded to the iPhone. Does UPnP not carry the mp3 tags over or is the issue the App not reading tags in files stored in the Documents Folder?

The music file plays perfectly.
Title: Re: Foobar2000 (Mobile Edition)
Post by: spoon on 2017-03-09 09:42:43
If your upnp server is transcoding, it is likely the ID Tags are not being written to the transcoded file.

I love this app but there are some problems:
- when disc number file tag is set to letter (to represent vinyl LP side on vinyl rips) only tracks from one side are in read library
- I use 200x200 png images for album covers and when this app converts them with some lossy compression for preview it adds very noticeable artifacts
Title: Re: Foobar2000 (Mobile Edition)
Post by: spoon on 2017-05-23 07:06:47
Disc number will held internally as a number, you are best sticking to non-letters for disc numbers.

The preview titles will be much higher resolution than 200x200, so they are scaled up. You are best to get decent album art.

I use m3u playlists on my Android because they're easy to generate from my desktop database (since they consist of only a relative path and file name). Foobar plays them but, regardless of whether I browse to a playlist file from the music folder, or specifically by adding the playlist folder to the list of playlist folders, the files are not sorted and do not play in the order in which they are listed, nor are they sorted by track number.

Example (omitting relative path names):

1 Andante - Allegro Non Troppo.mp3
2 Andante Con Moto.mp3
3 Scherzo--Allegro Vivace.mp3
4 Finale--Allegro Vivace.mp3


Foobar displays and plays the list in this order:

1 Andante - Allegro Non Troppo.mp3
3 Scherzo--Allegro Vivace.mp3
2 Andante Con Moto.mp3
4 Finale--Allegro Vivace.mp3

Post by: kode54 on 2018-04-10 04:52:40
The resolution you see in specific locations of the program is hard coded in the program. The reason for this, is because the resized images are cached in memory for a while, and larger sizes with large libraries tends to lead to the player running out of memory.

Maybe you can convince Peter to try a mode that does no image caching whatsoever, and instead just loads images to memory as-is only when they are being displayed, then immediately disposes of them when they leave the screen. You may experience noticeable load time hitching as it reads the artwork, but you'll have your full resolution 300dpi artwork!
Title: re
Post by: Peter on 2018-04-10 08:24:17
foobar2000 mobile resizes each image to the intended resolution and saves the resized version into its application data for future reuse, so next time the image loads near instantly. I chose to use JPEG for images with no alpha channel and PNG for images with alpha channel, which seems like a sensible tradeoff to me. Going 100% PNG will cause considerably higher CPU usage - but it may not result in a noticeable performance drop on today's high end devices. I'll provide an option to use only lossless formats (PNG) for rescaled images in a future update.

EDIT
Tested what happens if I go 100% PNG on my current low-anchor device, nothing particularly horrible, so here we go, from the next beta - 1.1.13 - no more intermediate JPEG.

1.1.13 beta is available on Android.

They initially developed a "Windows App" version of the mobile fb2k, but I believe they stopped further development because it was the platform they had more problems on maintaining it. I really haven't followed the development, so I might be wrong in this regard, but it's your best hope. Following the link on the first page of this thread still points to a valid application.
Using an Android emulator is not really a good option, because you would have to emulate the storage, and that would complicate things too much probably.

Anyone know how to change preferences in which foobar2000 sorts albums? 

Unlike Windows 7 and Android, Foobar 2000 mobile seems to sort albums by letters first than numbers.  I'd rather if it sorted by numbers first than letters like windows and android, as this is the way I have my library numbering sorted, and the different sorting system messes up how the library is viewed.  Only other alternative is having to retag all 580 albums. :( which I prefer not to do.
