bug with folder names including brakets "[]"?

recreate:
- name a folder "[folder 01]"
- inside create another folder "folder 02" without brakets
- point foo_sendtodevice to that folder (D:\[folder 01]\folder 02\)
- send a file to "folder 02"

> in my case foo_sendtodevice created a new folder in the root directory  ignoring the "[folder 01]" (D:\folder 02\filename.ext).

Can anyone confirm this?

I can confirm this...

then, I've tried with D:\'['folder1']'\folder2\filename.ext and it works like you want.

Well. It is perfectly normal behavior so just do as kabuki said.

(in foobar titleformatting brackets means "show this text if the tags that are between the brackets exists", in your case no tags so no text)

Hi cwbowron,

Is it possible to create scripts that convert APE tags into ID3V2 tags on the destination files? Would be great for the mp3 files managed by foobar that have no readable meta data in the mp3 players...

With using Y:\%artist%\%album%\%tracknumber% - %title%.$ext(%_path%) and trying to send multiple files foo_sendtodevice first creates a new directory in %artist\%album% (i.e. Linkin Park\Meteora) that is called for example "01 - Foreword.ogg". That is annoying.

What I want to have is:
Create for each album a new folder. Put the songs in the respective folders.

What am I doing wrong?

There could be a problem with some of the titles containing the | character.

Do you need more information? Can I help somehow?

Apart from that: Are you willing to improve this?

Well, if its the | problem, its been fixed in the dev version, but I havent released a new version lately.

And if it is that problem, just wrap your whole target device inside a replace function like this: $replace(old_string,|,-)

This is actually an unecessary plugin if you use copy, move or rename feature this can be set up to do the very same thing, I use foobar to copy my music to my Rio Carbon, it works a treat and you can save the preset.

Can copy, move or rename output a m3u along with the files or transcoded to mp3 on the fly?

sendtodevice copies the files in the same order as they are sorted in the playlist. Since 0.9 the f2k build in copy funktion handles the files in alphabetical order. My old mp3 porty and my Nokia mobile both play the files in the order they where copied to the flash storage.

Just because you don't need it, this plugin is not unnecessary!

Sorry guys didn't realise it actually transcodes as well, seems like a good plugin  sorry

under feature request on your website you list copying of albumart if your going to add that to future versions will you allow the user to set the name/size/format or just copy the art as is?

Is any way to use environment variables to set default mp3 conversion location?

Example:

%UserProfile%\Desktop\Music\Conversion

Thx!

Would there be a way to export a certain tag(s) to an external file?  Clearly if you are able to transcode then it would be trivial to pass other arguments for output.

Basically, I have a portable mp3 player that supports scrolling lyrics, but cannot read them when they are embedded in file tags, but only when it exists in an external *.lrc file.  I do not want to store lyrics in external files on my master audio library, so only want to pull that field out upon copying to my portable device.

Any suggestions?

I have a HUGE feature request - support for devices that doesn't get a drive letter. My Creative Zen Touch doesn't get a drive letter, and is instead only listed as the name I've configured it with. I think it has to do with the PlaysForSure firmware. Is this possible at all? I see it's been up before...

I have a request:
It would be pretty cool if you plugin could check if marked files have a special Codec and settings.
Maybe all files which are not mp3, V2 could be converted to the MP3-Player folder?
It would be cool if you could set those settings.

I created a button to send my files to my mp3-player.
But somehow it just works for the active file not for selected files.

Here's my code:

Code: [Select]
//added MP3-Player option

            $button2(10,$eval($getpvar(TopAlign1)+$getpvar(TopAlign2)+110),0,0,180,20,
            '$font($getpvar(font),$getpvar(fontsize),$getpvar(shcolor),$getpvar(color1))$ifequal($getpvar(lang),1,Send Active File to Mp3-Player,Insert Spanish Text here)',
            '$font($getpvar(font),$getpvar(fontsize),$getpvar(shcolor2),$getpvar(color2))$ifequal($getpvar(lang),1,Send Active File to Mp3-Player,Insert Spanish Text here)',Send to Device/Default,TOOLTIP:""

Hi!

I might be looking into the MTP issue the next days. I won't make any promises - but if somebody else tries to do the same thing: Please contact me, maybe we can learn from each other

Thanks!

Hi!

So now I have looked into the MTP issue for a few hours... It is WAY more complicated than usual file copying.
I see no justification for putting so much effort into something for achieving such a simple goal (like copying a file from A to B).

I can see why many manufacturers prefer the MTP approach. It takes the burden of tag scanning, cover art, folder traversing, playlist parsing, etc. from the player to the application.

I can also see now, why MTP is not especially liked around here

Bad news then....
I was really exited when I saw your first post.

Question: is this so much different from the iPod?. There is a foo_pod plugin available, thay may be help tfor inspiration.

Great plugin !! I use it to copy and transcode files to my PSP.

Minor request: make the call to lame for transcode not block foobar UI

cwbowron, would it be possible to add an option to copy the picture from the folder to the device?
I used this external application http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7228 but will simplify dramatically the process to have it integrated.
Basic idea is to copy folder.jpg to same folder where music is been copied.
