General - (fb2k) / Re: How to output to 2 different headphones with different EQ presets ?

Last post by wcs13 - Today at 02:28

For the record I have just realized one thing: why would I need Matrix Mixer when foobar's DSP Manager gives me already the option "Convert stereo to 4 channels" which is exactly what I need?

Makes things even simpler.

I still don't know which one of the 3 Process Modes I should choose within QRange though.

Support - (fb2k) / 1.6+: Support for Windows spatial audio enhancement?

Last post by x0 - Today at 02:05

I seem to recall when foobar was using direct sound that the spatial audio enhancements would work just fine if you played multichannel files, and would just give you plain stereo if you played stereo files, which is good. I like having my stereo not be virtualized, but 5.1 and 7.1 content to be, since I don't have a system. I also have options on Windows 10 now, the likes of DTS Headphone:X and Dolby Atmos. Now I've noticed that when I play some test files, a channel identification test for example, that Windows spatial audio is not being applied, instead in the case of 5.1 center is properly center, both front and back sides are pure sides, and the sub doesn't exist. I should be hearing the area and other virtualization of spatial audio when I have it enabled, but only if using a channel count that would require it. Can this be done?

Not much that can be done then, I didn't test that but thought it may work.

Pity there's no character set that the user could use for the replacement of each illegal character.

You also could do this:

Code: [Select]
$replace($replace($replace('a_string',_,mytempunderscorefix),_,-),mytempunderscorefix,_)
This way you retain any underscores.

I thought this was brilliant but it actually doesn't work, as the pipes are replaced with underscores before the pattern is even matched.

You're right. What I actually did was: (Not ideal I know but this mimics the behaviour I had before)

Code: [Select]
$replace('a_string',_,-)

Thanks for this. Simple, but it never occurred to me this would work on illegal character replacements.

Scrambles, I just wrapped the $replace around the whole file name pattern and it addressed artist and album tags just fine.

foobar2000 mobile / Feature Request: Swipe left to go back on any screen with a back button

It would be nice if there was an option that let users swipe left in place of using the back button.

The attached image displays as a small thumbnail when looking at the contents of a playlist but doesn't display on the now playing screen.

That's a damn good workaround, thank you for the suggestion. Files with artist or album tags that include a pipe are still going to be updated but that's a handful vs tens of thousands, so calling it a good solution.
