How did you manage that? It's not optional and is installed for everyone.

If you have multiple installs of v1 and v2, check you launched the right one???

This is probably a known issue, but I didn't see it mentioned.
The built in dark color themes (in Quick Setup) have poor visibility of the "arrows" in the media library. They're often not visible unless you hover over them with the mouse pointer:

X

It looks fine if "Dark Mode" is enabled, however.

EDIT: In dark mode, the light colored themes have worse visibility:

It does here. Maybe you didn't notice, but a fresh portable install now has a "profile" folder. 1.6 didn't have it.

The profile folder for portable installs was introduced with 1.6. It's always there for clean installs.

If you didn't have one, it's because you upgraded from an older version.

Beta 3.

Console UI element doesn't use color settings from "DUI->Colors and Fonts" anymore. Is this intended?

Converter's presets that use *.bat files don't work anymore.
Example of preset:

You need to update it to

Code: [Select]
rating IS 5

Without the %%, it uses metadata directly from your files.

With fb2k v2, it has playback statistics built in (previously foo_playcount) and this takes over %rating% for its own internal database.

Help. Error in the Media Library.

I have updated to version 2.0 Betta 3, 32bits and something that had never happened to me has happened to me since Foobar, more than 10 years ago.

If I open Foobar without having connected the external hard drive my music offers me at the Album List Panel all my music and in the Library View when I select an artist offers me all the albumes of her. And the following occurs:
- The first time offers albumes correctly
- Change to another artist and when I return to the previous one, all the tracks of all the albums have doubled.
- If I do this operation 10 times I double them 10 times, if I do 50 I duplicate them 50.

The attached image reflects the problem.

As the tracks duplicate, it takes more to respond to all actions.

The only solution is to click the hard drive and wait for monitoring (8 TB hard drive).

It has also happened to me with the connected hard drive, after using Re-Facets. Logically, it has been slowed in such a way that it did not respond and I had to stop the process. But when Foobar launched again, he did not respond and had to disconnect the hard drive to load the foobar and monitor the hard drive.
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: josemescud on 2022-09-02 20:41:01
I just realized that after being without using Foobar, he has continued to double every track with which he has become so slow that he hardly responds.

Deleted about ~10 files in Autoplaylist (about 400,000 items). (File Operations - Delete file)
Until I noticed (about 5-10 minutes) fb2k 2.0 beta 3 was using 100% CPU(1 core) and was constantly writing disks to a specific .tmp file. (loop)
It looks like there is something wrong with sqlite processing.

  • Artwork panel flickers when resizing

I'm sure this will be fixed soon enough but I might as well pimp my album art replacement while I can.

It doesn't flicker
Uses the same preferences.
Shows tooltips with size/path info...

Customisable double click action and other bits available on the menu...

(https://i.imgur.com/ADiuFq5.png)

Like the new DUI panel, it uses WIC for handling exotic image formats (ignore if you have no idea what this is) and can also display album art from certain radio streams.

One thing it does not do is display library viewer selections. That was a conscious choice by me as I don't like it. It tracks playlist items only - preferring the playing item if playing, selected item if not. Can be configured to always track the selected item if you want.

JScript Panel 3, link in sig. 32bit/64bit available. Add to layout as usual, right click>Configure. Click the Samples button>Album Art.

Class not registered for aif files

I installed v2 32bit beta 3
when using aif files I get class not registered
then i'm back at 1.6.12 it handles .aif files normally

I think a little bit more info is needed. AIFF is a container and can contain data compressed with several different methods. A sample file would be great but telling what type of compression is used may be minimum requirement.

1) Some items when selected in Preferences turn the whole preferences window into "Light" mode even when the system is running in "dark" mode. Selecting unaffected options return the window to dark mode.

Notable examples in the the whole "Columns UI" section and sub-options below it, others option do it also including options added by some plugins.

2) Selecting the Advanced preference and typing something into the filter will often (but not always) cause foobar to CTD a few seconds after finishing typing.  Doing this while a track is playing seems to increase the chance (but again not always).
 

This is on 32 bit version of v2 beta 3.

Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: marc2k3 on 2022-09-05 06:52:15
Components with preference pages are entirely responsible for rendering the area marked with the rectangle. fb2k can't take it over and automagically apply dark mode.

(https://i.imgur.com/EFDWC5J.png)

fb2k renders the rest and components have to advertise they are dark mode capable. This is because many components will never be updated.

If fb2k assumed all components were dark mode capable and rendered the bits it is responsible in dark mode while the components themselves are not updated, you'd end up with a terrible situation like this...

(https://i.imgur.com/nfTWq8m.png)

This is why the whole window changes to match what the component is capable of.

And just because the entire CUI layout/playlist/panels supports dark mode, it doesn't mean the preferences are dark mode capable (yet). We'll have to wait. Remember CUI 2.0 is still marked as alpha.

Just for fun, components can update their own area but not tell fb2k they are dark mode capable and this happens...

(https://i.imgur.com/ajouzgz.png)

I assume there is a special place in hell for anyone who released a component abusing these options.  :))

Hello, thank you for 2.0 version, Peter.

32-bit version works well with my portable DarkOne installation which I have backed up on 1.6 version. Then foo_input_monkey and foo_playcount remained and caused error and were uninstallable - uninstall option faded out. I returned to backed up 1.6 version and uninstalled these two, then upgraded without any error, everything is running well - skin, playback, all settings and playlist too.

One note though. There should be some speed up coming from used SQlite DB. I can't confirm that. Foobar start is significantly longer, pasting folders from explorer, sorting playlist and removing duplicates is taking up more time too and now I have faded out window with hourglass and waiting time about 15s even when switching between playlists, which was under one second in 1.6. I don't use library or watched folder at all, only one huge whole collection playlist consisting of 11TB and almost half million tracks from my NAS and one temporary playlist for converting etc.

I also hoped for native .webp cover art, but it's not so important.
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: Case on 2022-09-05 15:45:59
About .webp cover art support, foobar2000 v2.0 uses Windows Imaging Component interface that allows it to support all image formats that your OS supports. You can for example download HEIC and WEBP support codecs from the Microsoft Store to get them working instantly.

I see that portable install using the old way without "profile" subdirectory causes the component uninstall to be disabled.

All the slow operations you talk about point that you have pre-2.0 UI components active that do some heavy metadata displaying or processing. For reference over here v1.6.12 console reports "Startup time : 0:00.306176" and v2.0 beta 3 reports "Startup time : 0:00.125752". Autoplaylists or library monitoring are not supposed to be a problem, the player is meant to start practically instantly.
Perhaps keeping compatibility with the old components was a mistake.

I presume this displayed fine on v1.6.1.2? There have been changes in image handling with v2 where the windows imaging component (WIC) is used for loading images. If you could put the image inside a zip and attach it, I could test it with other components.

Just to be clear, I can't do anything about it. I'm just curious.

The performance of version 2.0 is inadmissible. I don't know if it will be a problem of Columns UI or Foobar.

The problem appears when you have an external hard drive connected by USB. Mine has 5 tb of music

- If I have the external hard drive off and open foobar the tracks multiply continuously in the Playlist View (see image) and you cannot get well because it takes a long time to respond as the tracks multiply. You change to another artist and continue to multiply. In the Album List Panel the tracks appear correctly without multiplication.

- You have no choice but to plug the hard drive that had already been monitored the previous day. It takes to monitor 50 minutes. And until the monitoring ends any album that you put new on the hard disk the album list panel does not recognize it.

I have also experienced this problem in my wife's portatile and fails the same. So I think it's not difficult to check the problem by developers.

Yeah, like I said in my post, I had 2 installs running. One was fine, the other was not. I think somehow I inadvertently selected "Default Playlist" from the "Layout>Quick setup" dialog - I don't consciously remember doing it but choosing "Album art in playlist" restored the columns again. Odd.

I think the columns should be selectable regardless of which quick setup option you choose.

I don't think so. webp is very much a Google thing so that's why they've provided that for many years. HEIC support only comes in windows 10 and later via the store. Someone may correct me on that.

Not 100% sure, but I seem to get crashes when moving around or resizing items on the toolbar, especially if I have toolbar visualizations are enabled. (specifically I usually use spectrum and oscilloscope).

I've pressed "send report" on such crashes a few times. Happened while remaking my usual layout on a fresh install, for now I've had to leave my toolbar visualizations disabled, but I figured I'd report it here in case it's not an issue that's been noticed.

fb2k 2.0 UI responsive too slow.
I have about 400,000 items in my playlist, and from 260,000 onwards, pressing and holding the up/down arrow keys will teleport without seeing movement.
It also uses too much CPU.
Look at the captured video file.
My CPU has 12 threads so 8.3% utilization equals 100%.

Hello, the following notes just to seek for feedbacks / share my data in case others may have noticed the same CPU usage increase.

As I started testing FB v2 Alpha I did NOT notice any relevant CPU usage increase vs. previous v1.6.
Over the time I did not performe other comparison because I was not having performance problem, thereof I believe the CPU usage remained quite same until Beta 4.

As I installed Beta 4 I started noticing some CPU resource issue (to know that I am running a 32bit Win 10 old PC ... 2GHz 2 cores).
However, last time I made CPU check with v2 Alpha, with regular FLAC audio, I recorded 50% of CPU usage, while yesterday, with Bet 4, I had to record 80% of CPU usage.

Is it only me or also others have noticed this CPU usage increase?

Regards, Andrea

Please test beta 5 which has fixes for high cpu usage.

I've noticed that 2.0 can stutter and struggle if the CPU is under a heavier load like running Stereo Tool in VST Wrapper being one of the more extreme things you can do.  I haven't observed any increases in CPU usages though as it remains about the same.  In lighter CPU loads remains about the same as before as well.

1,6.12 handles the same heavy CPU load being generated just fine without stutters or struggles.

Thanks. I tested the new Beta 6 and it is somehow better than the Beta 4: approximatively 10% less CPU usage.
But I am still having big problems... I cannot play SACD anymore because running out of CPU power.

I have to investigate because no such kind of issues until recently (from Beta 4)...

All the best, Andrea

Not 100% sure, but I seem to get crashes when moving around or resizing items on the toolbar, especially if I have toolbar visualizations are enabled. (specifically I usually use spectrum and oscilloscope).

I've pressed "send report" on such crashes a few times. Happened while remaking my usual layout on a fresh install, for now I've had to leave my toolbar visualizations disabled, but I figured I'd report it here in case it's not an issue that's been noticed.

on fb2k 2.0, 32-bit

Update on this problem, turns out these issues are likely due to MSI Afterburner and RivaTunerStatisticsServer trying to hook into the the program- so users of MSI Afterburner and RivaTuner, to fix this, you need to open RivaTuner's GUI and add foobar2000.exe to the application profile list, and set detection for it to "None" to prevent it from trying to hook into foobar2000s video buffers, which is what was leading to all of the crashes for whatever reason.

I probably should've noticed this sooner, but it just didn't occur to me that RivaTuner would be trying to hook Foobar2000 at all, since it never did before, I assume this is due to the shift from software to hardware rendering for the visualizations. I only caught onto it being a RivaTuner thing due to a random crash I had not even opening the foobar error reporter and instead dumping the error into Windows Reliability History, with the faulting module being "dxgi.dll" in Windows.

  • Layout splitters can't be locked anymore (to prevent accidental panel resizing) in layout editing mode
    • 1.6 menu (https://www.stfcc.org/pics/i/ec8e395cc44de13d7951a9d746f63149.png)
    • 2.0 menu (https://www.stfcc.org/pics/i/adf67f6c20c04fb9c19b0289c4f78c54.png)
Man this one is a real nuisance. I hope this is not intended... because previously in another thread @Case wrote -

Size locking is still there, see the various scale options. But you can't lock all sizes anymore, you have to pick which side of a splitter remains resizable.
The problem is the middle ones are not locked, they stay resizable. The "Scale left/right/top/bottom" options are fine in terms of not moving the splitters when the window dimensions change (I like that), but the splitter bars themselves can still be accidentally resized. And even worse with lots of splitters in play, rolling the mouse over the layout changes the mouse cursor to arrows constantly. <argh>

A single "Lock splitter" option (edit: to lock all panes at once) could still work together with the "Scale left/right/top/bottom" options - simply preventing the mouse cursor changing and accidental resizing. (It could be dimmed out with "Scale proportionally")

Please for the love of gods consider bringing back the option, Peter. Or Case, whisper in his ear. :D

Ha, it's exactly that knowledge that tipped me off that it was RivaTuner, it was just surprising, because RivaTuner very rarely causes any problems just by it's hooking action on it's own, I think the actual cause is RivaTuner hooking every individual visualization on the main window and constantly rapidly rotating between them until it somehow corrupts the memory of the program or something like that.

I guess that's a worthwhile note though, Foobar2000 2.0+ and RivaTuner will not play nice with eachother.

"RivaTuner" sounds like a nice little program to give you that VAC ban you'll always wanted to have playing a Steam game (and those are delayed).  Please don't complain on the Counter-Strike forums either.  See enough of that stuff already.

Your status bar appears bugged otherwise too. There should be numerical volume level after the volume icon. Do you perhaps run ui_hacks component or have you modified the bundled files?
If you can reproduce such issue on a clean portable install, then it's worth reporting. Or it might be worth reporting if you spend the time to figure out what component in your install causes it.

foobar2000 v2.0 nukes incorrectly installed components without questions. The 'components' directory inside main install dir is only for the bundled first party components. Nothing else has business being there and it will be nuked clean on each install or update.

Ok, but I confess I can't guess why that's necessary.  Even a simple, benign component like Timebomb (used all the time), which is still listed as an official component? What does "incorrectly installed"
 mean?

It has nothing to do with component simplicity. The components directory has been reserved for bundled components at least since foobar2000 v1.1.
I suppose you have never seen https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:How_to_install_a_component (https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:How_to_install_a_component). And with installed foobar2000 instance things are even simpler. Just double click the .fb2k-component file.

I don't know if that is related.
In Foobar 1.6 when I chose a genre in the first column in Facets all 6 following columns are updated in a fraction of a second.
In Foobar 2 b7 and all previous betas and using only reFacets when I chose a genre with many albums it takes nearly a second until the remaining columns are updated with the right entries.

Post by: BeLu on 2022-09-13 15:18:48
Maybe not a bug -   but an unpleasant feature:
As far as I see you can't switch off the newly integrated Playback Statistics functionality. So each time you play a file the the '%last-modified%' field is set to the LAST_PLAYED_TIMESTAMP - unless you generally activate "preserve creation/modification-time when retagging" (since vers 1.5). That makes no sense (playing a file should not count as a full-fledged modification of its tags). For me  playback statitics should be only an option - or statistics-retagging should not affect  modification time.

The process of creating playlists in v2.0 seems to be very inefficient.

Create playlist-*.fplite.new.tmp file -> change to playlist-*.fplite file

It seems to repeat this behavior over and over again. The problem is that there is a lot of writing to disk because this process repeats every few seconds until it's finished.

I tried adding 407,705 items to the playlist(media library rescan), and the created playlist file(.fplite) was only 31.2 MB, but 12.6 GB of disk write operation occurred during processing.
(This is my observation. This excludes .sqlite file writes performed by the system process by foobar2000. Only .fplite file writes performed by the foobar2000.exe process are counted.)

FB v2 Beta 7, 32bit version, strange crashes

Hello, just to report to you these 2 cases:
1) After 4-5 minutes of a regular 44kHz 16bit FLAC the CPU usage went up to 99%, FB Beta 7 crashes, disappeared from the running task, but eventually CPU resources were not released: CPU usage remained 99%. I had to reboot the PC. Crash report generated and sent as usual.
2) After having paused Beta 7 for some time (almost 1h), on restart audio had problem, not smooth play, cuts, high CPU usage and, most strange thing, Foobar entry disappeared from the Task Manager list of running applications.
Putting FB on pause again, it popped-up again among the running tasks. Restarting it, it disappeared again. PC rebooted again. No crash report generated.

I'm talking about Library Search.
I found out what's going on: The file has no title metadata, so its filename appears in foobar as the title.
It seems the old version of foobar could find the track by filename, but the new version cannot.

That has nothing to do with layout editing mode. You can move the splitters even if you skip that part. That is how they currently work, Peter is aware of the request to restore old locking behavior. I can't comment if things will change.

Can we have a better Unicode alias for '/' , right now it's like this 'Fate⁄Stay Night' as you can see the alias for '/' covers the name of the album a little , recommendations - '/'   'Ⳇ'  '〳'  '᜵'   '∕ '   '⧸'
It's only that way on Segoe UI as far as I can tell. The first replacement character you suggest is the actual forward slash that the replacement character replaces. That is an illegal character on Windows filesystems and can't be used.
Out of the suggestions '∕' is ok. It's actually a slash, the others are not and depending on the font they don't either show up at all or don't look like a slash.

hahaha. sorry.

"Album List" is case insensitive (normal).
Sending to "Playlist Manager" displayed the combined number of uppercase and lowercase letters.
Not normal since Beta 7.

I have artistname "Taeyeon" and TAEYEON.
91 in total. Only uppercase numbers are displayed (20).

FB v2 Beta 8 not appearing in Task Manager among the running applications

Hello, I don't know if relevant, but in my Windows 10, 32bit, with all the new patches available as of today, as I updated from Beta 7 to Beta 8, FB v2 started running, and even played for over 1h but no "trace" of it in the Task Manager among the running applications (while it is playing audio).

Browsing all the items listed in Task Manager, no reference found for Foobar while it is really playing audio.
Stopping the audio stream / stopping Foobar play, then the Task Manager shows-up Foobar entry...

Anyway, no crash had. It is still working so... if you need a memory dump, let me know quickly

Cheers, Andrea

The Layout Editing Mode can't be finished completely.
After switching it off the blue splitters indeed turn to grey ...
but even locked (the new method) splitters stay movable.
Since this isn't corrected until beta 8: Isn't this a bug?  :o
That has nothing to do with layout editing mode. You can move the splitters even if you skip that part. That is how they currently work, Peter is aware of the request to restore old locking behavior. I can't comment if things will change.
I support this request!

"Album Art View" not scanning sub-folders for images

Hello, in FB v1.6.x and older I was used to have Album Art View fetching images (like "folder.jpg" and the like) also from any subfolder of the played audio parent directory.

Now, in FB v2 I cannot have this. I tried and re-tried, but no way (for me) to have the subfolder scanned and the wanted images displayed (in my case I am searching for front.jpg and back.jpg.

Not a bug as it works for me.

To include sub-folder, in your case you should use ..\front.jpg and ..\back.jpg at front and back artwork configuration respectfully at Preferences / Display

Edit: This is for up folder

Hi @marc2k3 and all,

my big big big problem is that all the images are in subfolders having different names (:->), so I cannot specify a subfolder in the setting.

I tried with *\front.jpg and also with *.*\front.jpg and the like, but they were not working.

However, I remember well, 100% sure (even because I used FB 1.6 for over 10 years!) I was able to display all well with the v.1.6 of Album Art View.

I cannot believe to be only one having Album Arts in subfolders...
Anyone else here is having my same problem?

I never knew wildcards were supported in folder names so that's something new I've learned today.

And this works in fb2k v2...

Code: [Select]
*\*.*

No image alongside the audio tracks but inside a random folder...

Note: Because of fb2k always caching album art for its own panel/playlist, you always have to restart after changing settings.

You'll need update any custom column to use $meta(rating) instead of %rating%.

Pretty sure the new clickable rating column is for playback statistics only, not file tags.

  • Beta 8 did not import any playback stats at all.

I'd assume you can export from a working 1.6 setup via the Library menu to an XML file and import the file via the Library menu in v2.

If you don't have a backup of your 1.6 install, look inside your profile folder for a folder named index-data - this contains playback stats from 1.6 (assuming it survived the upgrade??). You should be able to transfer that to a portable 1.6 install to get the data.

Thank you for rebuilding Facets, much appreciated! I'd like to share a few pieces of feedback.

Two potential bugs:

1. The ReFacets checkbox option "Start playback when sending selection to playlist" doesn't work in combination with ReFacets' Double-click action "Add to current playlist".

If I use those two together, the selection does get added to the playlist, but it doesn't start playing; I expect it to (it's actually how I prefer to use Foobar). The checkbox option does does work in combination with "Send to current playlist (default)" though.

2. In Preferences>Display, set Selection Viewers to "Prefer current selection". Then, in ReFacets, with the selection also present in the current playlist (let's say one album), click on a song with the left mouse button to select it. Nothing happens in the playlist.

Expected behavior: like in Facets, if I do those same actions, the active selection in the playlist follows what I select in Facets.

Aesthetics:

3. I can't unlock the toolbar (same as mentioned above).

4. ReFacets' search bar, compared to Facets, has an additional and unnecessary black/white 1px (?) border around it. See attached screenshot. It turns blue (same color as the volume switch) when searching something.

5. Refacts' buttons in the UI ("Library", "Filters") appear to be uncentered vertically, or otherwise need some more spacing below the strings. See attached screenshot.

6. The X-button to clear a search is very small, making it a bit harder to click compared to in Facets. See attached screenshot.

7. When mouse-hovering the X-button to clear a search, the mouse-hover animation is a white square.

No playlist related mods installed, portable fresh Foobar 2000 v2 b8 install.

Looking forward to using ReFacets for years to come! :) Hope this helps.

foo_quicktagger 1.1 (2022-09-16)
- Preferences window doesn't completely honor Windows dark mode (See attached screenshot)

Properties dialog window
- Not sure if this is a bug per se but the font size on the tabs is larger than the other default font sizes in the rest of the ui. See attached screenshot for comparison between the tab font sizes on the foobar2000 properties dialog window and stock Windows 11 22H2 properties window.

Windows 11 (22H2) notification area
- There's a visual glitch. I'm not sure what text is supposed to be displayed in this area, but I doubt it's a path to the foobar2000.exe file. (See attached screenshot)
- The playback buttons do nothing when pressed

Foobar2000 2.0 beta 9 32bit

Playback statistics

1. %rating_stars%. %rating_stars% displays the correct rating (solid stars) but an additional empty star is displayed. See below example where %rating% is 2. The left column displays the built-in playlist view rating, the right column displays [%rating_stars%].

(https://i.imgur.com/xsU0w4L.png)

However, this issue goes away if you update the track's %rating%.

2. Import statistics from file tags. This correctly imports playback statistics from tags, but where those statistics do not exist as tags, the database playback stats get reset. This is not how the feature worked in version 1.6. In 1.6 if the stats were not present in the tags, the database playback stats would not be reset.

3. %play_count%. %play_count% does not get incremented at all after a track is listened to.

Tried to update to v2.0 (x86 so far). The installer says that since the install directory contains configuration data, but foobar2000 is not using portable mode, this is no longer supported in v2.0.

I've checked the Roaming folder -- it doesn't have anything newer than 2015. Seems someday I managed to keep both program, plugins and configs in the same folder somehow, which was probably useful.

What should I move to %appdata%\roaming\foobar2000 to make it "unportable" but still working with all configs?

Foobar2000 2.0 beta 9 32bit

Playlist view
1. Custom column sizes and positions for views marked remember layout for this playlist are not persistent between sessions, nor when switching between playlists. The column sizes/positions will just reset.

2. The built-in clickable rating stars that essentially display %rating_stars_fixed% are visually difficult to discern. There isn't much contrast between the solid stars (★) and outlined stars (☆) so the rating column just looks like a massive block of stars and the actual ratings are difficult to distinguish. I'd strongly suggest making the outlined stars (☆) a dimmer color than the solid stars (★) as foo_simplaylist did, such as <<<☆>>> or add the ability to let the end-user customize the colors for solid and outlined stars.

foo_plorg
Obviously not a core Foobar2000 issue, but the playlist often auto-scrolls up or down whenever focus leaves the component and there's mouse movement  on another component 🥴. I would put up with the lack of dark mode but it's just not as usable on fb2k v2 with this auto-scrolling glitch unfortunately. I'm sure this third-party component is now abandoned, and I'm only mentioning it because it would be great if the maintained DUI playlist manager incorporated the use of custom nodes/leafs with drag-and-drop sorting of nodes/playlists for better organization of playlists.

[attach type=image]23418[/attach]
Move these to "%appdata%\roaming\foobar2000"
Folders: "AccurateRip", "configuration", "index-data", "library", "playlists", "playlists-v1.3", "playlists-v1.4", "user-components"
Files: "LargeFieldsConfig.txt", "theme.fth", "version.txt"

Make sure you have no nonbundled components installed in the "components" folder.  You can run an older installer such as 1.6.12 and have it move components for you.  However you may lose some components that the installer won't move, it will list them so you can attempt to manually move them, once you hit "OK" it'll delate those if you haven't move them.  You can manually move components the installer doesn't like into "user-components" directory by using the name of said component as the folder name and dropping the component and all of it's dependencies in it.  It's tedious process but one that isn't too difficult to do.

Yeah, it sees DB updates the same as tag updates which isn't right. I can fix that but it will take component changes in the next release.

Foobar v2 32-bit beta 10
Foobar v2 portable and default installation on startup is taking up to 15-25 seconds before fully loaded where as v1 takes 4-10 seconds and in general everything goes slower but can't really give anything about it because there's nothing in the console about it.

Replacing a comma with semicolon in %artist% is instead of showing a comma in playlist view it's showing a semicolon, while if you mannually replace it it will change into a comma in playlist view. It can be do with mp3tag but prefer it with foobar

Refacets
Most of the time it's just not working or it takes 30+ seconds upon using search, with a smaller library it ofcourse goes a bit faster but still not optimal, both default and portable.
In fb v1 facets you could right click enable/disable "library, filters, source, help" would like to see that again.
Would also like album art view to make a comeback.

Not a bug
with fb v1 you could lock left/rights borders in DUI layout editing which is really usefull because you lock some while still be able to move others, hopefully this makes a comeback aswell.

File operation/Move to/... replacing characters in filenames
Could it be made possible to be able to replace these "| /" to "│ /, the replacements can be done manually but not through foobar.
But these ": ? < > " for some reason can be replaced to "꞉ ? < >" while it should be having the same problem.

Thanks to all developers for all your efforts in creating an even better foobar it's really appreciated, have a wonderful day/night!

1. %rating_stars%. %rating_stars% displays the correct rating (solid stars) but an additional empty star is displayed. See below example where %rating% is 2. The left column displays the built-in playlist view rating, the right column displays [%rating_stars%].

Just playing around with the beta again. More insight here into the above issue. All tracks that were imported from version 1.6.x now have a fractional %rating% except if the %rating% was 5. See the table below.

Beta 10: Media Library Search of "NOT somefield IS 1 AND NOT someotherfield IS 1" now gives empty result. The logical equivalent "NOT (somefield IS 1 OR someotherfield IS 1)" works as expected.

Doesn't happen on Beta 8. Playlist search also not affected.

I played around a bit more and it looks like the resulting logic is "somefield IS 1 AND someotherfield IS 1" (which in my previous test happened to match nothing)

There appears to be a freezing problem with the "Album List" UI Element... when I add my library on my desktop it always freezes the entire UI when the Album list tries to update after some time. music keeps playing, at least for a little bit. and it continues to scan and read the network? but even leaving it like this for a day it does not fix itself. (I have about 300,000 tracks living on network storage, fwiw)

if I cut the element out, add in my library, let it scan, and add the element back in, all is fine. but it seems like there's possibly some race condition I am encountering from the initial add

Folders with dsf files do not show up in the album list.  So if you have the same album in redbook as flac and DSD as dsf files in two separate directories only the redbook directory shows up in the album list.  The dsf files play fine when dragged into the playlist from Windows Explorer.  I do have foo_input_sacd installed, which I assume is required for the files to play.

Beta 10:
Selecting several files in Directory Opus and hitting Enter briefly shows them in the playlist one by one, and only retains the very last file and start playing it.

1.6.12 - works fine - selecting several files in Directory Opus and hitting Enter shows them all in foobar2000 and starts playing the very first one.

If instead of hitting Enter - right clicking and selecting "Open in foobar2000" in the context menu - works fine in beta 10 - shows them all in foobar2000 and starts playing the very first one.

If you are using ASIO as output, first try these 3 components:
Official: https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_asio
Unofficial: https://sourceforge.net/projects/sacddecoder/files/foo_out_asio%2Bdsd/
Unofficial: https://sourceforge.net/projects/foobar2000-wasap2-output/files/
It could be a driver or output issue. Have you also tried the Default outputs (WASAPI shared and exclusive)?

What CPU does your computer use?

The 32-bit build of foobaf2000 v2.0 runs fine for me on my Windows 10 Professional x64 machine using my Intel Core i5 7500.  CPU usage is about 0% average playing FLAC with about spike to about 1-3% from time-to-time.  WavPack being slightly more demanding at 0.5% average.  All considered normal on my end.  And that's with the normal DSP usage for me as well.

Hello @Gus., @Chibisteven , I think the problem was not completely due to Foobar v2.
I rebooted the PC and the CPU load went down by itself. Probably something was leftover from the previous MS Win update.

Moreover, I found that my buffering settings were all 0. Thereof I set these to my so far used sizes (see attached).

Doing so, Foobar v2 can now play smoothly comparable with previous v1.6.
Due to my quite demanding audio setup and relatively low performance 32bit PC, the CPU usage is so:
- 44kHz 16bit FLAC => 50% CPU
- SACD ISO => 70% CPU
This is fine for me now. I can play anything.

If anyone has / knows a better/optimal Buffer setting, please let me know.

Thanks for your support

I find that leaving the file buffering at defaults is best.  Output buffer usually has more impact against drop outs as everything has time to be fully processed through the whole foobar2000 chain, especially on really old, slow computers, on more modern, faster ones like mine it makes no difference at all where things are set but can provide some protection if a mechanical hard drive is put under a continuous heavy load.

The network buffering might be fine to adjust if your internet connection isn't very stable but I leave the file buffering at it's defaults.

I switch between 1 and 30 seconds depending on what I'm doing.  If I'm playing a whole playlist nonstop then exclusive mode works best so I set it to 30 seconds and leave it running.  Otherwise I use shared mode with 1 second as it's much more responsive when making changes in the DSP area for example as I don't have to wait long for changes to take effect.

As for your settings: Change your full file buffering to 0 KB.  500 MB will put a huge load on your CPU and consume a large amount of RAM.  Instead adjust only the read ahead until it plays smoothly or increase the output buffer.

I get the error "Unable to open item for playback (24-bit WMA Lossless decoding is broken on Windows 10, use foo_input_ffmpeg to decode this file): "xxxx.wma"

Now, the problem is that even with foo_input_ffmpeg these files cannot be played, while other players like the same Windows 10 Groove and JRiver MC29 can play without problems.

In my FB v2 I have installed obviously also the default FFmpeg decoder foo_input_std v5.1

I tried converting a 16-bit FLAC to a 24-bit WMA Lossless using WMAEncode64.exe with the options:

--silent --codec lossless --out-bitdepth 24 - %d

The resulting file will not play in either Foobar v1 or v2 resulting in the same error message as AndreaT about needing foo_input_ffmpeg.  I did not add that plugin to try, but noted that the file will play fine in both MusicBee and AIMP which use the bass_wma.dll as a plugin.  Forcing both to use system codecs resulted in no-play.  Windows 10 21H2 x64.

Edit:  forgot to add that Window Media Payer is not "activated" on my system, which may explain the no-plays when AIMP and MusicBee were forced to use system codecs.

Hello @gus. and @Bogozo , thanks a lot for your kind and prompt follow-up on my reported issue.
Well, if I have correctly understood, there is no solution right now available for Foobar (please correct me if I am wrong).

Thant's not a big issue for me, I have just a few WMA files and I can use other players.
At this point, do you recommend me to remove FFmpeg wrapper (foo_imput_FFmpeg)?
I will keep only the default foo_input_std.

The problem about WMAL playback is that ... it isn't lossless if the output signal isn't correct.
And for an application that is often used for lossless conversion, it does not really make sense to take responsibility for converting that. With WMAL being a dying format, people would be tempted to convert their WMAL files to something better, and with the output possibly being broken ... one should at least be warned from here to Hades. Don't throw away the original.

I suppose you want to do the following.
(1) Convert them "as losslessly as seems possible". I guess you would try those different decoders that are around? (You can try to bitcompare afterwards.)
(2) Stuff your WMALs away in a backup.
(3) Tag those converted files, or keep them in a way that distinguish them. (Say, using a different codec/setting than you would otherwise use.)

Microsoft was about to scrap WMAL already with Vista , https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-do-you-convert-wma-lossless-to-wav/15dabe00-ef24-4f7e-811f-a4ae4855b916 - I don't know if the XP decoding "is known as reliable" nor whether it is available without firing up an old XP. (And even then ... how?)

@AndreaT  Solution is to use foo_input_ffmpeg. Why there is problem with running ffmpeg binaries on your system, this is another question.
Is your windows 32-bit or 64-bit ? If it is 32-bit, you need 32-bit ffmpeg, not 64-bit that @Gus. gave link to. 32-bit ffmpeg can be downloaded from here - https://github.com/sudo-nautilus/FFmpeg-Builds-Win32/releases/download/latest/ffmpeg-master-latest-win32-gpl.zip

The Layout Editing Mode can't be finished completely.
After switching it off the blue splitters indeed turn to grey ...
but even locked (the new method) splitters stay movable.
Since this isn't corrected until beta 8: Isn't this a bug?  :o
That has nothing to do with layout editing mode. You can move the splitters even if you skip that part. That is how they currently work, Peter is aware of the request to restore old locking behavior. I can't comment if things will change.
I support this request!

Re: Playlist view > right click a column header > columns

If one has many custom columns that cannot all be displayed within the context menu, an up button and down button appear respectively.

1. It doesn't look like the aforementioned buttons don't respect dark mode (see attached image)
2. Using these buttons actually becomes very cumbersome when repeatedly clicking the down button to navigate to the bottom of the context menu. I think it would be a lot more elegant to replace this behaviour with a scrollbar on the context menu when it's required.

FB v2 reoports "Unable to open item for playback (Could not start the decoder: could not start the worker process):..."
Maybe your windows is blocking ffmpeg.exe/ffprobe.exe somehow. You know, there is such thing in windows: "This File Came From Another Computer And Might be Blocked to help protect this computer"

I'm guessing FFMPEG doesn't support the format
Your guess is wrong.

For those who forgot why fb2k on windows 10 refuses to play wma lossless by default - https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,117275.0.html , https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,117578.0.html

Hello @gus. and @Bogozo , thanks a lot for your kind and prompt follow-up on my reported issue.
Well, if I have correctly understood, there is no solution right now available for Foobar (please correct me if I am wrong).

Thant's not a big issue for me, I have just a few WMA files and I can use other players.
At this point, do you recommend me to remove FFmpeg wrapper (foo_imput_FFmpeg)?
I will keep only the default foo_input_std.

Thanks again and kind regards, Andrea


I keep both FFMPEG Wrapper and FFMPEG up to date.  I have both of those but I seldom use them.  Usually when an operating system is blocking something it's that something is too new and antivirus doesn't like it.  You can try whitelisting stuff antivirus don't like.  I have a fair amount trust in both foobar2000's developer and FFMPEG's developer to know their stuff is safe and reputable.  WMA sucks overall mainly because it's maker, Microsoft more or less abandoned it.  If you have the original sources somewhere else such as a CD you ripped it from, you can re-encode it to a different format.

I'm using Windows with Loudness Equalization turned on.
foobar2000 2.0 beta 12 x64 uses Playback - Output - Device: Primary Sound Driver.
If you check Fading (Enable smooth seeking, pause and volume changes) option, Loudness Equalization DSP is used normally.
By the way, if it is unchecked, the volume will be reduced as if Loudness Equalization is not used.

Never mind this was probably due to installing the 64bit version then reinstalling 32bit afterwards due to missing components. I clean reinstalled with a backup of my library and everything worked fine.

I have to say so far so good with v2 I love the new covert art addtion in playlist view and the fluid spectrum visualization with HW acceleration it's a lot smoother.  Now I'd love to be able to modify ratings using stars while writing to tag in the playlist view instead of needing a right click with quicktagger...

Great! If you're running a 32-bit OS, then yes, you'll need 32-bit builds of ffmpeg, most builds nowadays are 64-bit only.

[Repeat of this post (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123229.new.html) I made a couple of days ago. Maybe this thread is the best place to post it?]

I can't use search when a filter including "NOT" is applied.

I use default UI and facets.

When I've got a filter like "NOT %genre% HAS Live" active, as soon as I type anything in the search box (even just "a"), nothing shows up. All the facets panels go completely blank.

It looks like this only happens when the filter includes "NOT".

I have two filters:

1. Live: %genre% HAS Live
and
2. Not Live: NOT %genre% HAS Live.

The first one works as expected (search is possible when the filter is applied) but the second one returns nothing when anything is typed in the search box.

It's the same in v2 beta 11 and v2 beta 12. But the issue doesn't exist in v1.

I presume this is a (major) bug but perhaps I'm doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Statistics such as rating is now hard linked to the file path, which means if the file is moved, the rating is loss.

Please add an option to use the old Playback Statistics (foo_playcount) behavior. While this may not be as accurate, it is good enough for me.

If not, please allow the use of the old foo_playcount component, and recompile it for 64 bit.

That's not true. Beside the Playback Statistics database, the data (rating etc.) can be written to file tags. This can be done automatically by store playback statistics in file tags in Preferences or manually by Write statistics to file tags in context menu. If you loose the playback statistics database, restore it with Import statistics from file tags in context menu.

You can try it yourself, just add a random song file, rate it, move it to a different folder, add that song again, you can see that the rating is lost. The rating is tied to the original location so the rating is only for that exact location. The old foo_playcount does't have this issue.

I do not want to write anything to tag.

Data from the official playback statistics component is preserved when moving files.

The old foo_playcount can rate and preserve data for song not in the library as well, and if the file is moved, whether it is monitored or not, the data is still there for it.

The one in 2.0 cannot do any of that, even for song in the folder monitored by the library.

If this is really not a bug, I hope the old foo_playcount will be allowed to function again because it has exactly what I need.

Beta 12 - High CPU usage on my old 32bit Windows 10 fully patched

Hello, I am sorry I didn't extensively tested beta 11, however, this new Beta 12 along with the last Windows 10 updates (I don't know which one is the main responsible) make my old 32bit Windows 10 PC unusable.
Over 80% of CPU usage reported and continuous audio cuts and whistles (also updated Behringer UMC ASIO driver).

Regards, Andrea




Hello @Gus., @Chibisteven , I think the problem was not completely due to Foobar v2.
I rebooted the PC and the CPU load went down by itself. Probably something was leftover from the previous MS Win update.

Moreover, I found that my buffering settings were all 0. Thereof I set these to my so far used sizes (see attached).

Doing so, Foobar v2 can now play smoothly comparable with previous v1.6.
Due to my quite demanding audio setup and relatively low performance 32bit PC, the CPU usage is so:
- 44kHz 16bit FLAC => 50% CPU
- SACD ISO => 70% CPU
This is fine for me now. I can play anything.

If anyone has / knows a better/optimal Buffer setting, please let me know.

Thanks for your support
Regards, Andrea

I find that leaving the file buffering at defaults is best.  Output buffer usually has more impact against drop outs as everything has time to be fully processed through the whole foobar2000 chain, especially on really old, slow computers, on more modern, faster ones like mine it makes no difference at all where things are set but can provide some protection if a mechanical hard drive is put under a continuous heavy load.

The network buffering might be fine to adjust if your internet connection isn't very stable but I leave the file buffering at it's defaults.

I switch between 1 and 30 seconds depending on what I'm doing.  If I'm playing a whole playlist nonstop then exclusive mode works best so I set it to 30 seconds and leave it running.  Otherwise I use shared mode with 1 second as it's much more responsive when making changes in the DSP area for example as I don't have to wait long for changes to take effect.

As for your settings: Change your full file buffering to 0 KB.  500 MB will put a huge load on your CPU and consume a large amount of RAM.  Instead adjust only the read ahead until it plays smoothly or increase the output buffer.

I had stutter issues on an old Intel Core 2 Quad Q660/P5Q Mobo with Wasapi, ASIO and ASIO+DSD.  I need ASIO for my Exasound DAC which doesn't support WASAPI.  I'm still using an Old M-Audio 192 and resolved WASAPI stutter on this one by changing the Hardware buffer to 50ms as per pic below.  For ASIO thx to Andrea and Chibisteven the Read-Ahead increase for local files was mostly the culprit in my case.  I had a very large full file buffering and not sure why this should be left at zero if I have plenty of RAM on the PC...Anyway still playing with this but so far so good.  For casual listening while working I resample everything with Sox to 384 KHz and use the old continuator DSP as I have all kinds of files (lossy,redbook, Hi-Res and DSD)... Usually works fine but has been a bit of a challenge on this Old PC but makes me see where the bottlenecks are!!

I'm also getting extremely high CPU usage on occasion, no clues as to why. Granted I also have an older processor (Core i3 2100), but I am not used to seeing foobar2000 using 70% CPU while idle/monitoring, I'm used to seeing single figures even with my admittedly bloated setup ~ a large library (six figures) and a lot of playlists, some of which I could dispense with, minibar, rainbow spectrum visible at all times, and I'm also using JS Smooth Browser which to be honest hasn't been working well ever since upgrading either, with regular crashes especially with larger playlists, so I may just give it the bum's rush since I rarely use it anyway.

On the plus side, memory use actually seems to have gone down. May just make a few adjustments to see if I can improve performance.

Well that's nonsensical. Smooth Browser is a library viewer. The size of your playlists will have zero affect on it

 (edit: i guess you could be using older versions with playlist supprt but they were buggy as hell and should be avoided - and I'd assume most playlists are going to be smaller than an entire library??)

BTW, the latest version JScript Panel 3 is optimised for fb2k v2 and has lots of performance tweaks and fixes for the included smooth scripts. Performance still might suck for large collections but I would fix any errors if there were reported.

Anyone using SMP versions should seriously consider switching or not using. They haven't been updated in years and are unlikely to be,

True...But it's OC'd from 2.4 to 3.2GHz, has been stable like this for years and working just fine however yes the P5Q Mobo, memory etc... may come at play here too...And I'm running W11 on it so I'm pushing my luck!!

But back to my point, if I can make it play just fine with my other Player it should also play fine with Foobar ASIO?... Any thoughts on my parameters? CPU usage of Foobar V2 is always below 5-10 percent with memory usage of around 100 to 300 MB depending on the file played.

Maybe your luck ran out?  Running Windows 11 on an unsupported CPU that is really too old, I mean what on Earth could go wrong there?  Honestly it be a waste of my time to figure out exactly what is going wrong here because you have all the red flags of a very risky and potentially very problematic system configuration.  Just because other applications are running fine at the moment doesn't mean that they'll continue to do so in the future.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/sacddecoder/files/foo_out_asio%2Bdsd/
https://sourceforge.net/projects/foobar2000-wasap2-output/
If none of them are working properly with high buffers, maybe you should consider trying alternative ASIO drivers:
https://github.com/dechamps/FlexASIO
https://www.asio4all.org/
Also try the Thread Priority settings in Foobar, maybe disable MMCSS...

Tried the latest Beta 12.

Bug 1: Media Library "Simple Search" is a bit broken.
Simple search was supposed to search matching text among metadata OR FILEPATH. Now the FILEPATH part doesn't work.

Bug 2: Refacet's search textbox size limits how many characters you can type per search??
If the textbox (searchbox? Just the place where I type search keywords) is too small, you can only type a few characters at max.
This bug only happens with Refacet searchbox. (The Facets search box isn't having this problem.)

Imagine trying to walk around Bug 1 by searching "%path% HAS whatiwant" instead of "whatiwant", only to encounter bug 2 which prevents me from typing this many characters in one search.

Not a bug 3: The sort by name behavior changed.
In 2.0 Beta 12, names start with numbers (eg. 1,2,3) is sorted before names start with [.
Back in 1.x version, [, and even 【 (which is a 2 byte character) is sorted before numbers.
Now in 2.0 Beta 12, 【, as well as all other 2 byte characters, are sorted after all 1 byte characters.

Apply to 32 bit version since supporting components for the following don't seem to be supported

All ISO files will play etc when file>open but none of them appear in FB album or folder listings and wont be found with text searches

I didn't say you were making it up. I just suggested using the latest version and reporting bugs as you encounter them. Common sense is not so common these days.

I'm not using J Script Panel 3, I am using Spider Monkey Panel. I say "using", I'm not really using it/can live without it. If I needed to switch to this component that is news to me. In any case, it is very likely unrelated to the main issue I'm struggling with - foobar spiking to and then idling at over 70% CPU usage and staying there indefinitely. It's basically unusable software until I can figure out what is causing this or what's happening. I'm keeping my task manager open while using foobar to try and find any rhyme or reason. It'd be good if there was some way I could see what internal processes are active in foobar because I am left completely guessing at it.

Just a reminder from the release notes (https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Version_2.0_Release_Notes#Before_reporting_bugs...) ...

Quote
Before reporting bugs...
Please verify that any bugs can be recreated WITHOUT ANY COMPONENTS first. ESPECIALLY without any components that have not yet been specifically updated for foobar2000 v2.0. Due to design changes, many components will suffer from performance issues until refactored for the new database system.

UI Element "Tabs" related

Hi All, I just noticed that UI elements associated to tabs are usig significant CPU resources also wheno not in focus (not the active tab).

To be more precise, let me give you a real case on my 32bit Windows 10 running FB v2 beta 12:

Case 1 (optimal):
- FB setup as per my baseline config
- Added a UI Tabs having only 1 tab associated with the UI element Console (all time in focuse / visible)
- Overal CPU usage playing a regular FLAC 44kHz 16bit => 25%

Case 2 (the bad case):
- FB setup as per my baseline config
- Added a UI Tabs having 3 tabs associated with the UI elements Console, Peak Meter, Spectrum
- Overal CPU usage playing a regular FLAC 44kHz 16bit:
     - having focus on Console tab (the only visible) => 47%
     - having focus on Spectrum tab (the only visible) => 65%
     - having focus on Feak meter tab (the only visible) => 55%

Is it normal this behavior? I mean, is it by design?
I would expect that UI elements in the backgroud (not in focus) should not use so much CPU resource.

All the best, Andrea

FB v2 Beta 12 - BUG: False "file corrupted error" reported on restart from long pause

Hi All, I think this is a bug because never seen before with FB v1.6

Anytime I put on pause any audio file for at least 30minutes, then on restart the audio stream works fine for 10-20 seconds and then stops reporting something like "corrupted file".

It is a false error becaure file verifier reports file OK and also because replaying it again it plays perfectly until its end.

I'm not sure exactly how to describe this but ratings in v2 beta just don't seem to work properly.

When I filter by the built-in "Top rated" (i.e. %rating% IS 5) I get a random selection of tracks with different ratings from 0 to 5.

Is this a but or am I doing something wrong?

In Settings>Advanced>Display>Properties dialog>Standard fields I have: Track title=TITLE;Album title=ALBUM;Artist name=ARTIST;Album artist=ALBUM ARTIST;Date=DATE;Orig year=ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE;Genre=GENRE;Composer=COMPOSER;Performer=PERFORMER;Track Number=TRACKNUMBER;Total Tracks=TOTALTRACKS;Disc Number=DISCNUMBER;Total Discs=TOTALDISCS;Comment=COMMENT;Rating=RATING;Copyright=COPYRIGHT;

I use Quick tagger to set the rating: https://i.imgur.com/2dxkzNK.png

And in Preferences>Display>Default User Interface>Playlist View I have this custom column: Name = Rating Pattern= $pad($repeat(★,$meta(rating)), 5,) so I can display the ratings as stars.

Am I writing to the wrong field or something?

I'd really like to be able to filter by rating. Please can someone help? Thanks.

The rating are stored in an own database and in the tags. With Quicktagger you are writing in the tags.. The metadata has to be transferred to the database with Import statistics from file tags or use $meta(rating).
Normal procedure is, to create ratings with context menu playlist | Playback Statistics | Rating | 1-5 and activate the checkbox Store playback statistics in file tags in Preferences.

Thanks very much, grimes.

But I'm still horribly confused lol.

OK. I've checked the box Store playback statistics in file tags in Preferences.

But I don't know how to rate the tracks without doing context menu playlist | Playback Statistics | Rating | 1-5.

I've made shortcut keys to rate tracks. Ctrl+2 for a 2 rating, for example. But when I then right click the track (that has been rated 2), in context menu playlist | Playback Statistics | Rating it says the rating is 5 (screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/grFyE6h.png) even though in Properties it says the Rating is 2.

And if I right click a track that I haven't rated, it says that it's rated 5. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/TD3lzX4.png There's no rating for that track in Properties. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/OA6TOeu.png

And I thought I was using $meta(rating). In Preferences>Display>Default User Interface>Playlist View I have this custom column: Name = Rating Pattern= $pad($repeat(★,$meta(rating)), 5,)

And when I use the shortcut keys to rate songs, the rating shows up fine in Properties, it just doesn't seem to be understood by fb2k.

I don't really know what checking the box Store playback statistics in file tags in Preferences is doing, to be honest. And I don't understand why tracks that I haven't rated have this hidden 5 rating when I look in the context menu but nothing shows up in Properties.

And if I choose a track with no rating and do context menu playlist | Playback Statistics | Rating and click on Write statistics to file tags the hidden 5 rating gets put into my Rating column. It's clearly using the same field as I'm already using when I use the shortcut keys to rate tracks, as you can see here: https://i.imgur.com/DCj8bSP.png Also, why does it add that ADDED TIMESTAMP field to the tag when I do that?

I'm really bewildered! Can you help me more please. I'd really appreciate it.

EDIT:
The metadata has to be transferred to the database with Import statistics from file tags or use $meta(rating).
How do I do Import statistics from file tags? And do I want to? I've spent a lot of time rating tracks and I'd cry if they got overwritten by the hidden 5 ratings that I've only just found out about. What does Import statistics from file tags do?
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: grimes on 2022-11-06 15:53:11
%rating% displays the database value 5, $meta(rating) the tag value 2.

Backup your database with Library | Playback Statistics | Export Statistics
Import statistics from file tags overwrites your statistics database with the tag values.

What I don't understand: You set the database to 5, so immediately the tag value should update to 5

Your keyboard shortcut doesn't work. (See attachment)

I recommend to use Playback Statistics to set ratings, not the tagger. The tagger writes the tag only and not the database and the tag. That's the cause for your confusion.

Getting there.

1. How do I set the Playback statistics rating to 0 or not rated?

When I try to change it to not rated, it stays the same.

So I tried changing all my unrated tracks to a 1 rating and then doing Rating - (minus) but again it stayed the same.

Then I tried deleting the rating from Properties but again they all still say 1 in my new %rating% column.

EDIT: And setting the rating to 0 in Properties doesn't change the rating either.

2. And, by the way, is my Rating field in Properties wrong? I have it as Rating=RATING in Preferences. But as I say, I've just made that field empty via Properties but the %rating% column says they are all rated 1.

Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: grimes on 2022-11-06 16:48:29
Rating 0 or -1 doesn't exist. To remove rating, use context menu playlist | Playback Statistics | Rating | <not set>

Rating=RATING works here.
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: InchPerfect on 2022-11-06 17:00:34
As I said, I tried that but it doesn't work.

It has a dot next to "not set" in the context menu thing but it still says 1 in the %rating% column. This may be a bug I suppose?

EDIT; Here's a couple of screenshots. Before and after. They're the same (except that when I set it to "not set", one star gets added to my $pad($repeat(★,$meta(rating)), 5,) column - strangely).

Post by: InchPerfect on 2022-11-07 03:27:52
OK, grimes, my old friend. I had to take a break but here's an update.

I did a completely fresh install of fb2k v2 beta 12 (portable).

When I use context menu playlist | Playback Statistics | Rating | <not set> on fewer than 100 tracks (that are currently tagged with one star), it works fine. The rating gets removed.

When I do it on 100 tracks or more, it doesn't work.

I've tried it on several amounts between 1 and 99 and it always works fine. Any number I've tried over 99, it always fails.

All my tracks are mp3s with only ID3v2.3 tags.

My best guess is that fb2k wants to send me a warning that I'm about to tag 100 tracks or more, but there's a bug which doesn't throw up the warning and therefore fb2k doesn't run the task.

Hope that helps.

Post by: InchPerfect on 2022-11-07 04:00:40
Rather than edit my previous post, I'll put this here because I think it's a separate issue.

I wanted to save time changing my 1-star ratings to "not set". So rather than doing them 99 tracks at a time, I did a fresh install of v1 latest.

I installed Facets (because I couldn't work out how to get the Playlist viewer to populate with all my tracks without it) and installed Playlist statistics (to set the ratings).

But then, when I added a Rating column (%rating%), all my tracks have a question mark in that column. It's infuriating lol!

Attached is a screenshot of one track that is rated 4 as you can see in Properties on the left, but shows a question mark in the Rating column on the right.

As a reminder, I rated the tracks using context menu playlist | Playback Statistics | Rating | <not set> in v2 beta 12 as suggested by you, so the ratings should be in the database and the tags, I believe.

What's going on? Why don't the ratings show up in the rating column?

Thanks yet again. So sorry to bother you with this rather trivial stuff.
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: InchPerfect on 2022-11-07 05:51:52
Ratings are not displayed properly. Track shows 4, context menu 5 and Properties 4.5. 4.5 was the result of conversion from 1.6.12 to 2.0, should be 4
On another note. Not sure if this is related ...

Why do the ratings (which hopefully I've done right now* as per our discussion above) not show up in mp3tag?

I have more than a thousand rated tracks but only 34 have ratings according to mp3tag. (All my tracks have ID3v2.3 tags.)

*[I now have a custom column using $pad($repeat(★,%rating%), 5,) and my keyboard shortcuts use  Playback Statistics>Rating instead of Quick Tagger.

The vast majority are OK.

This fairly simple query (I created a Filter) doesn't seem to work in v2 but does work in v1.

(NOT %genre% HAS Compilation) AND (album artist HAS Various)

Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

[Also, I don't understand whether I should be writing %genre% or genre, and %album artist% or album artist? (but, as I say, this works as it is in v1. I'd just like to know for future reference please. I couldn't work it out by reading this page: https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Query_syntax)]

[Also, there doesn't seem to be any mention of %play_count% on this page: https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Title_Formatting_Reference. It's used in the built-in Filters like %play_count% MISSING. Is that just because it's still in beta?]

TAK md5 sum not shown; a query for %__md5sum% MISSING returns all TAK files.
It was like that in 1.6 as well, but 2.0 is supposed to support TAK out-of-the-box, so now it isn't a component issue.

takc -fi gives information comparable to WavPack codec profile and version. Like this:
Code: [Select]
  Encoder:                 V 2.3.2, -p4m
  Codec:                   4 Integer 24 bit MC (TAK 2.2)
  Wave file meta data:     Not available
  MD5:                     2204d09a890b8211f0d1329adc1daa8a

... so maybe a suggestion or two:
* What is, say <WAVPACK_VERSION> = 5, make it <FORMAT_VERSION> = WavPack 5. What for .ape is <VERSION> (say 3.99), make it <FORMAT_VERSION> too. Report <FORMAT_VERSION> TAK 2.2 or something for the above.
(I don't know if the <FLAGS> in .ape is used for anything?! Could it be other than 0?)
* %__md5% be remapped to look for MD5 and if "missing", DSD audio MD5.
It does already returns Monkey's checksum on encode, which is something else - so then maybe even consider to include audiomd5 tags as written by the foo_audiomd5 external component (https://foobar.hyv.fi/2.0/?view=foo_audiomd5), since they are computed either the same way as the ape or on the PCM.
* Oh, and WavPack hybrid should be reported as hybrid lossless or hybrid lossy, and transcoding warnings be fixed (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123325.0.html).

Same for me. It seems to be the first part of the string i.e. 'NOT %genre% HAS Compilation' that's causing the issue. It seems to be the NOT that's failing - '%genre% HAS Compilation' works.
Interestingly substituting IS for HAS doesn't cause the same problem, so 'NOT %genre% IS Compilation' works.
It's a different query of course, but is seems to be the combination of NOT and HAS. Works as expected in v 1.6.13

Alright , I know I've brought it up before also but I would like to add something , "⁄" & "∕" , are the current replacement for the solidus foobar2000 , which looks absolute dogwater imho on all mainstream operating systems out of the box , I would like to present two suggestions "⧸" (Big Solidus) and  "/" (Full-width Solidus) , full width solidus looks amazing on all apple devices but looks not so amazing on windows and the big solidus is good everywhere , a replacement that could make the ":" (Colon) look a little better is ":" (Full-Width Colon) it also looks good on most devices , current replacement is "∶" . Please! implement anything except the current replacements.

Statistics such as rating is now hard linked to the file path, which means if the file is moved, the rating is loss.

Please add an option to use the old Playback Statistics (foo_playcount) behavior. While this may not be as accurate, it is good enough for me.

If not, please allow the use of the old foo_playcount component, and recompile it for 64 bit.

Thank you.
That's not true. Beside the Playback Statistics database, the data (rating etc.) can be written to file tags. This can be done automatically by store playback statistics in file tags in Preferences or manually by Write statistics to file tags in context menu. If you loose the playback statistics database, restore it with Import statistics from file tags in context menu.

I can only repeat what the other user said. It IS broken. I experienced this issue with music in a zip archive in beta12. In an old playlist with the old path the statistics were there, but in a new playlist with the new zip path, they were missing. Upgrading to latest beta13 still shows the same error. It also happens with normal files. I'm actually surprised I haven't noticed it before. The "View Report" function in the Playback Statistics settings page also tracks them per-path.

Other problems that exist since at least beta8: File path search is broken in Media Library Search and Playlist Search.

Not to diminish the work of the developers, but if I would have known that this "beta" is still so unpolished and doesn't receive fixes for reported bugs for months, I would have not switched. Even with the enticing dark mode..

I guess there is no way for me to go back to the old version without having to redo all my config changes and statistics changes that happened in the meantime, right? Writing statistics to file tags is not a realistic option..

OK, it gets even better, the whole rating statistics are completely broken. There are "hidden" x.5 ratings, seemingly the ones that got imported from fb2k 1.6. This was also already reported by @metal_termite . It gets even more ridiculous if you play around with this a bit. The sqlite database is very strange with apparently two places with rating saved? Once is normal, but also with these x.5 values, and another is a percentage(?!). This weirdness is also present if you export the stats to xml.

A track matching %rating% IS "1"     becomes RatingPercent="20" Rating="1"
A track matching %rating% IS "1.5"  becomes RatingPercent="30" Rating="2" (gets rounded up)

I can't trust this software anymore. There must be a very lax development process present with a seemingly unfinished software design for v2.0 and numerous undocumented, but conscious, changes. It's grossly irresponsible to release this as "beta"-quality software.

It's beta software.  Exercise some common sense here.  It's for testing purposes, not for regular everyday use.  I'm still using 1.6.14 at the moment as that's the last stable version of the software for regular everyday use.  Only using 2.0 for testing and finding bugs at the moment because it's in beta.  Software can be in beta for months, it's a lot more common than you think it is.

Search index now includes paths by default. Unfortunately this seems to have introduced some quirks. You can turn it off: Advanced Preferences / Tools / Search / Index file paths. This will make %path% behave exactly as before.
Will investigate for next beta.

It means that plaintext searches (ones without expressions/operators) scan file paths.

It also means faster searches including %path%, using full text index instead of testing one-by-one if each track in the library passes criteria. Your search query is internally translated to actual SQL expression if not using anything not supported by search index. Watch console output when performing search to see some basic feedback on library index operations.

- I've got ReFacets set to "Playlist" and this filter:

%path% HAS \Klassik\

Do I need to re-index maybe? (EDIT: No, no change)

When on Linux / wine some components miss foobar color scheme and are using system default.
See attached: "Selection Properties" and "Playlist Manager" properly use Blue color scheme whereas "Console" and "Album List" are not properly painted. The "Album List" seems to have texts properly colored, only the background unused by text remains white.
Same behavior in both 32- and 64-bit versions.

I added splitter locking, but I'm not sure that's what some of you people are after. The ability to lock width/height of stuff was a bit of a side effect of old splitter implementation, I can add some other way to do this, without having to add splitter.

Post by: anamorphic on 2022-12-05 04:42:52
Thanks Peter. The locked splitters work fine that way. I can live with it, though I would point out the new method has disadvantages when resizing the window. i.e. Say you previously had 3x3 element layout, and wanted to lock the outside elements (to say 50px), with only the middle element scaling - this is no longer possible. On resizing / maximizing they all "scale proportionally" whereas previously the locked elements would keep a fixed width / height. (A minor issue I can live with like I said, but the old saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" kind of comes to mind ;) )

A few ReFacets remaining issues (aside from extra feature requests) -

I believe there needs to be a "Default sort order" option box in Preferences > Media Library > ReFacets (like Facets) - column library viewers need a way to sort the playlist. If user wants to auto- sort playlist by %date% for example, this is currently not possible. (Several mentions in ReFacets (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,122835.0.html) topic). ->
Are there plans to add the "Default sort order" option from Facets to Refacets so that the playlist view can be automatically sorted?

Toolbar buttons have black drop arrows. ->
UI glitch: In dark mode the Library and Filters dropdown uses black (=invisible) arrows.

Toolbar does not expand and locked toolbar reverts position on restart. ->
A toolbar glitch: The filter dropdown, selecting a new filter which has a longer character length doesn't increase the size of the box, so the dropdown selector gets hidden. If the width is manually increased (moving the search bar to the right), that's OK until FB2K is restarted, then it reverts back to the width of the currently displayed filter. Locking the toolbar doesn't help, it just makes it impossible to expand the dropdown.

Finally an old curiosity / glitch I noticed - there appear to be two styles of Album List? ... In View > Layout > Quick Setup, clicking through the "Main Layout" options, one Album List has grey background, while the other has white background. Also, add an Album List to a blank splitter = grey. Then use Replace UI Element on it with Tabs = white.

Vote for non path-bounding playback statistics. And I really don't want write ratings to the file.

Yesterday I changed folder name, and found all my song ratings in the folder were lost. Thousands of ratings were made by effort during these years, that was not Foobar2000 1.6 behavior. Please consider undo that.

As to saving ratings to the file tag, that's not a good choice for me at least. I would like foobar2000 to handle my playback statistics, not writing the file tag and change the file everytime I play it or rate it. Otherwise it would brings big trouble for me to do the file incremental backup, the file will be re-backup every it is modified, that's really silly. Please consider.

Hello,

sorry if this has already been covered here. I have happily been using foobar2000 for many years. Unfortunately with the update to v.1.6.14 I was experiencing constant crahes. I have thus decided to upgrade to v2.0 beta16.

It seems if the problem with crashes is now gone, but most of my playback history is gone. I still have a copy of the v.1.6.14 installation. Should I try to install v2.0 again? Is there something I should keep in mind to successfully migrate the playback data to the new version or is this a known issue that will be resolved in future releases?

Very possible, but "their bug" is not present if using Foobar2000 1.6.

Hence something must have changed in Foobar2000 2.0 that specifically results in this "Hitting enter with multi selection = bad behavior, my shell extension is invoked multiple times with single files".

I rewrote the whole shell extension in v2.0, so the shell now talks to foobar2000 using a different protocol: IExecuteCommand instead of IContextMenu. This has many advantages, most importantly avoids unnecessary loading of our code into Explorer.exe and every other app invoking these shell ops.

Mitigation on my side is possible, at cost of degraded performance (wait for more files before taking action).

I already use such workaround when adding files from command-line: foobar2000.exe <path-to-file>. The whole point of implementing the shell extension is being able to reliably send multiple files without hacks or delays.

While Directory Opus is awesome technology, this really looks like their bug. By convention, pressing enter or doubleclicking should perform the same action as the bold command in the context menu, no? Here it clearly does something different.

Hi folks,

Beta 17 32 bit here on Win11 Pro, with the new VST component,  Resampler-V, UPNP, Playlist Attributes and ProjectM vizualizer.

I output to Virtual Audio Cable, and I've discovered that using Default output to the virtual line in is fine, no under or overruns and clear audio, but if I use the Default (Exclusive) I get on the order of about 150 underruns per second and the output is badly distorted. Event mode on or off does not make a difference, though having event mode on in earlier versions (separate WASAPI component) had the same effect. Maybe event mode is hardwired into exclusive Default and it doesn't follow the flag in advanced settings.

<<Update - Found the issue>>
OK, this is probably just a bit of poor UI, you need to check the "Exclusive Output Overrides" checkbox for the "Use event" checkbox to function - clearing this and checking override sorts out the underruns. On uncheck of "Exclusive Output Overrides" the child UI should gray out.

Anyway, thanks for all the hard work, loving this new version!

Upgrading to Beta 17 from 1.6.11 did not import any of my playback statistics. My Library paths were automatically set, but none of my playcount data was transferred over, it had to discover all the files again, and everything has a date added date of today. Not sure what could have gone wrong, but it's pretty bad and I don't know how to fix it.

According to my test it's not possible to play first a DSD128 track and after that a PCM 96 kHz track with Beta 17-64bit, because the playing stops at the beginning of the second track.

However it works perfectly with Beta 17-32bit

Seems files from zip/7z/rar archives fixed in Album List in "by folder structure" view in beta 16.
But not for file types registered in zxtune plugin.
Seems I fugured out how to fix this.
After renaming directory with this archives and then renaming back, zxtune-supported files appeared in Album List view.
Rescan folder in library did not work.
Seems some bug with db info from previous version of foobar2000 (was upgraded from 1.6).

When on Linux / wine some components miss foobar color scheme and are using system default.
See attached: "Selection Properties" and "Playlist Manager" properly use Blue color scheme whereas "Console" and "Album List" are not properly painted. The "Album List" seems to have texts properly colored, only the background unused by text remains white.
Same behavior in both 32- and 64-bit versions.
The bug is present in all betas (15 is the last tested).
Version 17 fixes proper "Console" coloring, both in 32- and 64-bit versions.
The "Album List" UI Element waiting to be fixed.

Found another problem for myself because of the "path bound playback statistics".

Due to my car USB's only-mp3-playable limitation, I keep all my songs in both 2 formats: one Apple Lossless and one MP3 format (MP3 files were kept on another harddisk, converted from the lossless files, so as to have the same tag info).

Before, I listened to and rated lossless songs on PC. Then from time to time I draged my whole MP3 format songs into foobar2000, they would show the same rating-stars which lossless songs had, so that I could easily use foobar2000's build-in File Operation-Copy To... function to copy the 5 star MP3 files to my USB disk for my car.

Now I can't do the same workflow, pity.

foobar2000 v2.0 beta 19 32-bit [Windows 11]

I've noticed item counts for auto-playlists, displayed by foo_plorg, do not update after metadata is changed unless I change the playback state of a track. For instance, an autoplaylist with the query "genre IS synthwave" has an item count of 100. If I delete "synthwave" from the genre of 1 track, the item count will remain 100 until I play a track, stop a track, or change a track.

I've never noticed this behavior before with prior beta versions, and I have skipped the last several.

I don't know if this is a bug but when playing a cue sheet in v2 both 32 bit & 64 bit there is a pause between tracks that is not there in the 1.6 versions. It seems to reset before playing the next track. In the task bar using CUI it says 'Opening' for about a second before beginning to play. In 1.6 it flashes so quick I can't read 'Opening'

When converting to a multi track file from a cue you can see the converter speed drop to zero between tracks. On 1.6 the speed drops a little (ex. from 64x to 59x) but not close to zero.

When string includes specific keywords, the last word (or character) becomes omitted on tooltip.

Example string: "foobar 3rd 123 456 789.mp3"
Tooltip: "foobar 3rd 123 456"
In this case, the string is file name and the keyword is "3rd" then "789" is not show on tooltip.

The tooltip will be shown when you mouse over the string which is partially hidden. I saw such tooltips in file name field as well as playlist name field.
I found several keywords which cause above bug. For example they are "3rd", "4th" and others. In other words, they are lower case substring "rd" following "3", or "th" following any number. ("1st" and "2nd" are no problem.)
Therefore below file name and playlist name also can reproduce this bug.
"foobar2000theme.mp3" -> "foobar2000them"
"foobar2000the best playlist" -> "foobar2000the best"

I have the latest updates and something I'm noticing with foo_stats is that some albums have multiple %added%. I know what the timestamp for the date added should be for the entire album, but i am unable to update it. Resetting stats and importing from file tags or from a .xml file does not correct the date added field.
I even tried to mess with meta data from .sqlite file with no luck. Not sure that to think about this. Thoughts?

[Update]
Something to note with my issue is that albums added to my library before foobarV2 have this issue. Albums (Like the albums I got for Christmas) do not.

However, I installed 2.0 beta 19 over a copy of my 1.6.15 folder, and after several minutes before foobar2000 2.0 finished loading, I can see my playlists, but my autoplaylists and my library are empty.  My library is setup as the relative path "..\Music\", where my foobar2000 folder is at the same level as my Music folder.  Is this expected behavior?

If I right-click that Music folder entry and rescan, then things start appearing, but I would have expected the 2.0 import/first load procedure to have already found the files.

Since foobar V2, I very often get the error "Unsupported format or corrupted file" when loading an fpl playlist (saved with V2).
The playlist is then not complete.
This happens with an existing playlist, a new playlist and with an Album list generated playlist. No console error message.
I attach a m3u playlist as an attachment.
If this m3u playlist is loaded, then saved as an fpl playlist, and the fpl playlist is then loaded again, I get the above error message.
fpl playlists from foobar1.6 can be loaded once without any problems.

is suspect. Taking that long means you're trying to load far too many images or stupidly high resolution ones that are causing a 32bit process to run out of memory. I'll see if I can handle it better but that may be beyond my limited skills. Maybe checking the total file size of all image paths and aborting if it's too much will be the easy way out.

Noted. Are you sure that you have foo_playcount (https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_playcount) installed? It's now required for this functionality.

Since foobar V2, I very often get the error "Unsupported format or corrupted file" when loading an fpl playlist (saved with V2).
The playlist is then not complete.
This happens with an existing playlist, a new playlist and with an Album list generated playlist. No console error message.
I attach a m3u playlist as an attachment.
If this m3u playlist is loaded, then saved as an fpl playlist, and the fpl playlist is then loaded again, I get the above error message.
fpl playlists from foobar1.6 can be loaded once without any problems.

Thanks for the report. I'd like a sample of actual FPL that fails to load. FPL format also saves cached tags, loading M3U and saving to FPL on my system will not produce same results as on yours as my foobar2000 does not know the tags of references files. I could not create a failing FPL this way.

I see in the 2.0 change log that,
Quote
First run performs import of old configuration data (playlists, library).

However, I installed 2.0 beta 19 over a copy of my 1.6.15 folder, and after several minutes before foobar2000 2.0 finished loading, I can see my playlists, but my autoplaylists and my library are empty.  My library is setup as the relative path "..\Music\", where my foobar2000 folder is at the same level as my Music folder.  Is this expected behavior?
Certainly not the expected behavior, will check again, probably a problem with importing of ..\ paths.
Two things I have noticed in Playback Statistics 3.12.

If I change the title tag in Properties I lose playback info for that file. It shows added date as today's date.

Also if I import an XML written by old foobar2000 v2.0 betas the info is properly imported but I get an error box saying incorrect or corrupted file.
I'd like a sample of offending XML that shows error messages, even if it actually imports fine.
Changing tag in Properties - there's a pretty old loophole in foo_playcount logic that results in exactly this in the following scenario:
foo_playcount gets told that file got edited from state B to C, but stats remain pinned to A.
I'm addressing this for the next update.

Cross-posted on the Beta20 thread, but I have some updates and it seems this is the better trafficked thread.

On Beta 20 and 21 VST config is not retained. No changes made in the VST UI is persisted, and there is no audible effect of real-time changes. DMG plugins show signal passing and show effect of changes in the GUI on signal but there are no audible changes. I can drop gain to zero in TrackControl and meters all drop, but there is no effect to the audio being played, gain does not change.

Upon closing and re-opening the VST GUI, it has reverted back to default. I am using the built-in DMG defaults to get around this - whatever is default in the VST does work, just no other changes have any effect.

I have verified the same behavior using Blue Cat Audio's PatchWork product as well, so my correlation with an update applied to the DMG products is by chance. I rolled back my DMG installs to no avail as well.

I have also tried clean install of FB2K 2.0 Beta 21 with the same results.

Thanks!

I have recently upgraded from beta 16 to beta 20 & 21 32-bit version on Windows 11 and after the upgrade Foobar is just closing without any error. The next time I try to start, it asks to go to safe mode which is working fine, but trying to start Foobar normally again keeps on failing. I couldn't find any error log anywhere with more info, so I just went back to beta 16 again which is running fine. I am not sure if this is a known problem yet, so I guess I'll have to try again in a few versions...

From Beta 20,
"Playlist group layout optimizations reverted (no more scrollbar jumping around stupidly), unless in the new low memory mode."

Now beta 21,
there's still the jumping scrollbar issue when in the playlist has a lot of groups and the behavior is triggered by:
1. Drop audio files from explorer
2. undo some changes
3. ... i think, no more.

Automatically fill values in tag editting has different (wrong) logic now. When using commas it fills values before the last comma instead of value before first comma. You can easily try it for yourself in 1.6 and latest 2.0 beta.

foobar 2.0 beta 22 x86
*EDIT* I confirmed these bugs are not present with the same DSPs in foobar 2.0 beta 20 x86, nor in 1.16.10.

I'm now noticing popping sounds at the beginning of tracks when I skip to next track. It isn't every time, but it is very frequent. I seem to have narrowed it to two different DSPs. With either of them active, I get popping. I don't know when this issue was introduced.

Loud popping (click sound) basically every manual track change:
foo_dsp_stereoconv

Quiet popping (bloop sound) randomly on manual track change:
MathAudio Headphone EQ for Foobar2000
(C) 2014-2022  MathAudio.com
https://MathAudio.com

I need both of these DSPs. I don't even know if the stereo convolver is still supported, but I would love to be able to use it on the x64 version since it has a huge impact on my headphone listening - I consider the stereo convolver impulses I use to be the crown jewel of my headphone listening setup for the difference they make.

Regarding DSP changes-
For performance reasons, I made DSPs receive a 'flush' event when cycling tracks instead of total reinit.
This should be the same behavior as when seeking. If some DSPs handle this badly, they also handle seeking badly as far as I know.
Please report this as a bug to DSP authors. If the problem persists, I'll investigate reverting to the old behavior.

Regarding freedb / musicbrainz,
No bug here, please autosubmit any crash reports, I have not been able to find any on the tracker.

For MathAudio, that's a frequently used plugin and I will try to contact the author when I am able.

However, I don't think the other author still supports the Stereo Convolution plugin. The link in the about section is dead. If the new DSP behavior is here to stay, that means I'm effectively stuck on beta 20 forever since the plugin is essential to me.

Regardless, thank you so much for your hard work. I appreciate and value everything you have done to create and support foobar2000.

Has anyone else noticed an issue with seek speed in 2.0? Not seen this happen in the stable version but beta 23 (at least) sometimes has a noticeable pause whilst seeking. A restart sometimes fixes this but not always. Not sure what triggers this as it'll sometimes go away on its own, and it happens with both local files and files on a network drive.

I have just found a workaround for this system error.
During the update e.g. from Version 17-x64 to 24-x64 the optional features must be switched off during the first custom install. Afterwards a second install with activated optional features will complete the install without the shared.dll system error immediately or after the next Foobar start.

Crossposting this possible bug report to this thread, as this may have been the better place to put it:

I'm not exactly sure when this behaviour started (possibly when I switched to foobar2000 v2.0?), but I've noticed that if I modify the %album% tag of an album, then %added% also changes to the date that I modified the tags - I assume because the database sees this as a new entry. Is there a way to disable/fix this?

I thought maybe the playback statistics database would've relied on another way of identifying a track/album instead of by the tags - perhaps by a hash or something like this?

I noticed a typo in an album title, and now %added% shows that the album was added to my library today, instead of back in 2018. I have an autoplaylist which organises my music by %added%, and this then gets messed up.

I can confirm that this is happening with 2.0 beta 24 and foo_playcount 3.1.3.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Change the title of an album (%album%) in the media library (in this case I added "(Test)" to the end of the album name)
2. Playback Statistics field will show an Added date that reflects when you changed the album name.

Changing the album name back to its original value restores the correct playback statistics.

At the end of a big move job, fb2k (edit: x64 beta 24) will for hours and hours stay "unresponsive" but not completely:

* In the alt-tab cycle the main window shows up, but I cannot select it.
* I mouseover the icon in the taskbar it shows that there is a (edit:) File Operations Setup window that I cannot access.
* CPU usage stays at 12 to 15 percent; I have 8 threads, so I can only guess that it occupies one thread doing its thing and then a little bit on something else

But after fighting the task bar a little bit, I get

Another MD5 issue, with WavPack calculating it in the same endianness as the source file. It seems that foobar2000 - like FLAC - calculates it little-endian, and so fails to verify these WavPack files.
The problem has been around ever since WavPack got CAF support, but the combination foobar2000, CAF, WavPack and MD5 is scarce. Now with WavPack supporting AIFF, it could happen more often - indeed this is an issue I discovered upon verifying some of my encodes - some artist gave me something that was in AIFF - not thinking it up first and trying to provoke it (although I should have!).

foobar2000 does handle how FLAC and WavPack differ in MD5 for unsigned signals (that is, 8-bit WAVE), so I guess it is intended to verify the files that are indeed OK.


As for TAK: foo_input_tak makes MD5 show, after reloading tags - and I can then remove the component as long as I don't reload tags from files once again.

Hello
I searched and searched and finally found a thread for Foobar2000 2.0 beta. I forgot to backup and then updated from the 1.6.1 stable version to 2.0 beta 24.
I've lost my last played and play count numbers. Are there issues with Foobar2000 v2 beta 24?
Can anyone help?
Kind Regards
funkyblue and a member since 2001.

I'm using 2.0 beta 17 and probably ought to update, but this once again has implications for playback statistics. Should I reinstall the Playback Statistics component before updating to a new beta, or after? I want to make sure this goes as smoothly as possible, noting some issues people have experienced.

I've installed newest version of foo_playcount after 2.0 beta 24. Without foo_playcount the rating and playcount columns in playlist view showed errors. The Playback Statistics database remains intact.

That seems right. Statistics was removed on beta 18 (?). So anything after that should not retrieve rating or playcount, unless you have the plugin. Correct me if i'm wrong.
https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Version_2.0_Beta_Change_Log#Beta_24

Although I think the plugin should be simply integrated into foobar at this point, with the current behavior (not the one linked to paths). It would put an end to all these problems with ratings, statistics disappearing, mixed versions, tag remaps, etc. And the same for the $meta(), %RATING% inconsistencies... lets simply add a new tag remap called %RATING_FILE% which points to "ratin" tags on files, if it exists, and done. Or just a single setting to either use database or read from files. And all tags pointing to that. Much cleaner.

In any case at least it should be installed by default (and opt-out setting).

I'd have to agree. It should be in the default installation. I do not use much apart from the default plugins.

In the Installed Components window, right-click the ones you don't use and choose "remove."  Then, in the Profile folder, open the Configuration subfolder and delete any existing .cfg files that correspond to the removed plugins.

Built-in DTS decoder doesn't report lossless profile of DTSHDMA nor its bitdepth if it is in *.dts container and thus, when using conversion to other lossless, bitdepth is truncated to 16 bits (unless manually set to 24 bits) even if source DTSHDMA is 24 bit.

You mean the "user-components" directory, right?  If the component folder name is not listed in Preference/Installed Components, I assume that means it is not compatible with v2.0 beta 24 since your upgrade from "1.6.1."  To be on the safe side, why not just move those to some temp folder outside of Foobar and see if Foobar continues to work the way you expect.  If so, you could go ahead and delete them.

The behavior was painful when using nothing but "Refacets + PlaylistView".

Assuming I already selected and was already playing some track, which shows in the PlaylistView.

Correct behavior (when using the old Facets + PlaylistView):

Whenever my current selection in Facets panel changed (by clicking another item in the Facets list, or by searching)...
1. It will switch the PlaylistView to the list with my selection (or search) results. PlaylistView reflects the change, by automatically switch to the playlist called "Library selection".
2. The current playling list will move to the playlist "Library selection (playing)". So I can go back to it anytime.
3. When double clicking an item in Facets, it sends all corresponding tracks to the playlist, and play from the first track.

Problematic behavior (when using Refacets + PlaylistView):

1. When using the Refacet search box. It won't automatically send the search results to the playlist called "Library selection", and activate it. (Selecting an item in the Refacets list works properly, though.)
2. Refacets will never move my current playing list to the playlist "Library selection (playing)". So I can't go back to it by double clicking the status bar. Even worse, the current playing track won't repeat, even if I set the playback order to "Repeat (track)", since it's not in the playlist anymore.
3. When double clicking an item in Facets, it sends all corresponding tracks to the playlist, and... selects all of them??

Suggestions on how to fix Refacets:
1. You basically need to recreate the "Selection action: Send to selection playlist, keep playing playlist" feature in the old Facets. And the "Play" feature right next to it as well. Currently there's only a "Send to selection playlist" option which really couldn't get the job done.
2. Also make sure searching in the searchbox also performs the selection action.

(What version am I using: Was using beta 12, recently updated to beta 24, problem remains the same. I should have reported it back then.)

beta24, 32bit portable.

Since at least Beta17, if I double click or press enter on files in explorer there is a 1.5 second or so lag before Foobar starts playing it. I have it configured not to bring to front, and I usually run Foobar closed out to the tray. Since I'm in the habit of playing many short sounds in sound libraries, this lag every time I do so is pretty huge. Definitely didn't experience this with 1.6.x. I think the only difference is this is installed portable and I used the open with and set it to always open the file type in Foobar with this portable version.

I notice that the current playing sound doesn't stop playing immediately either. It's as though Foobar doesn't start to do anything for at least 1.5 seconds.

If I use the play command while a file was already loaded, it is instantaneous.

I did not upgrade from 1.6, this was a fresh upgrade as of version 2.0beta6 or so iirc.

I second request for %playback_time% (etc) - strange to not have it when every other playlist does. Maybe two decades ago it made sense to only have status bar updates, but nowadays...? (I know however this is the bug reporting thread, not the wishlist (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,116509.msg1022483.html#new) thread!)

"Highlighting" has always been there - see wiki (https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Foobar2000:Preferences:Default_User_Interface:Playlist_View#Dimming_and_Highlighting_Text) or here (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123610.msg1021792.html#msg1021792) for an example.

fb2k beta24+foo_playcount v3.1.3, the song rating is 4, after modifying the album date, the song rating disappeared.
Ratings and all playcount data is lost if you use any program other than the currently running fb2k instance to change: Date, Title, Artist, or Album Name.

However if inside foobar you change say the Date back to what it was before you changed it externally, the ratings and playcounts will return to what they were (so long as you do this within 4 weeks of the last time foobar saw the file). Then you can change the Date back to what it should and the ratings and playcounts will not be lost.


Nevermind, just repro'd this by changing the date from inside foobar too. Oddly it does stick after the first edit, so you can change date from:
2022 -> 2021 playcounts lost
2021 -> 2022 playcounts return
2022 -> 2021 playcounts stick

Only seems to effect foo_playcount's metadb hash though as foo_enhanced_playcount data isn't lost. Definitely appears to be a bug in that component as opposed to foobar itself.

To follow up on the below, it seems that for lossless sources including uncompressed, the verifier component calculates and displays audio MD5s - but apparently only 16 bit and 24 bit, not 8 nor 32 (nor float32/float64).
Another MD5 issue, with WavPack calculating it in the same endianness as the source file. It seems that foobar2000 - like FLAC - calculates it little-endian, and so fails to verify these WavPack files.

Also a wishlist item on the verifier output: yes I can sort by columns (I would have wanted filename with extension) and select, but:
Once there is an option to add to playback queue, surely it should be feasible to send to new playlist?

I have a 192000Hz/24bit 1.7gb flac file.
With foobar vers. 1.5.8 runs fine, with vers. 2.0 beta 24 tells me that the file is corrupt or unsupported format. reference libFLAC 1.2.1 20070917.

I don't know if some flac library needs to be updated.

@ApacheReal : The FLAC library has been updated to one that detects much more errors. There have been a lot of such threads here, the most recent being this: https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123715.0.html

What does the verification say? In v2 it is built-in, the old needs this component: https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_verifier
Are do they report same MD5s?


I wonder if Peter could save himself many quite a lot of questions by including an older FLAC version and whenever a .flac throws an error, run it through the old version to see if the errors are the same, and report an explanation if not.

What I can say that the flac file is not corrupted.

I converted the flac file to wav 24/192 with foobar2000 vers. 1.5.8

Put the wav files in foobar2000 v2.0 beta24 and verified that they were read I proceeded to convert them back to flac 24/192

I don't know more.

I reported the problem, because I think there is something wrong.
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: Porcus on 2023-02-20 20:50:04
Which file did come out corrupted? The one before conversion to WAVE or the one after?

Most of these files that now give errors or warnings, have had ID3 tags written to them by EAC, but this is a high resolution.

Edit: Just because conversion with 1.5.8 does not lead to any objections, it doesn't mean the file is OK - because 1.5.8 uses a FLAC version that does less checks. If you look at https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123219.msg1017891.html#msg1017891 you will see a file that was supposed to be 16 bits, but when you decode it, it turns out one channel needs 18 bits and the other needs even more.

But there it is, at the components list, without a warning. Keep sending reports please, it's really funny. Wonder when we will change the current components model, instead of talking about the philosophy of software.

The bugs I found so far appear to be GUI related.

  • Double clicking on a visualization doesn't go to full screen mode.
  • Double clicking with a full screen visualization doesn't exit full screen mode.
  • Exiting full screen mode with a visualization causes it to reshape to the size of the screen and not remember the size and position of where it was last at.
  • Before the open file box pops up (shortcut CTRL + O) any highlighted items in the playlist disappear completely for a brief second before reappearing.

Would Autoplaylist fit here? Also, compatibility with the remote tool?

Hi,
have a Problem with Beta 25-x64 / Win10 Pro.
When I edit Tags via Properties-Dialog (FLAC FIles) and then save it, Foobar gets unresponsive with 1 Core runs at 100%.
Must kill it with the Taskmanager.
Tags are written.
Problem fixed for the next update, thanks for reporting.

A minor bug, but it seems like the "Visualisation update interval" setting no longer works when the visualiser is put on fullscreen mode. Unfortunately, I'm unable to tell which beta update may have caused the change.

Visualization is offset (probably 2px to the left).

Cue file (multiple tracks onto single FLAC) hangs for ages before playing. Running over a network from a USB2 drive so it's not the fastest but it worked better on the previous version (although that had its own issues in that it paused between tracks - even when playing from the same FLAC - which was why I tried the beta...)

Status bar just shows "Starting playback...", and nothing on the console other than

Opening track for playback: "\\netpath\\Music\StayTheFunkAtHome5.cue" / index: 1

Playing the FLAC file on its own doesn't have nearly as bad a startup time (2 minutes vs <5s). Is FB2k trying to scan every file in the cue before it starts, and doing it multiple times on the same file?

Edit: same pause if I make the mistake of jumping to another track in the cue (so still within the same flac), so it's not just that it's pre-caching some data.

Edit 2: oh, it does it between tracks too.

Hi. I've a bug with foobar2000 beta 26-x86 on Win11 Pro.
When the UAC window opens asking for administrator rights, the player crashes if the main window is not minimized (if it is minimized, crashes happen every other time).
I will attach the last four dumps.

P.S.: nvd3dum.... I assumed that this is due to the included visualizers (and specifically the oscilloscope), but my assumption turned out to be wrong. I do not know what to do.
P.P.S.: My computer has two video adapters, and the player runs on a weaker video adapter. I can't say exactly what version the problems started with, but the first dump was created on January 18th. Then I did not pay attention to it.

Hi. I've a bug with foobar2000 beta 26-x86 on Win11 Pro.
When the UAC window opens asking for administrator rights, the player crashes if the main window is not minimized (if it is minimized, crashes happen every other time).
Moreover, the player crashed after I left the game (closed the application). Both applications are rendered on the same monitor, but through different video accelerators. If necessary, I will send a dump (the program offered to send the report, and I did it).

When you have multiple inputs able to play different file types with the same extension, you can set the priority of one over the other under File>Preferences>Playback>Decoding.

Using the dark theme the status bar fonts sometimes have artifacts in maximized state

(https://i.imgur.com/eGpSAqY.png)

Getting out of maximized, make it return to normal

(https://i.imgur.com/u1cNGSU.png)

With "use system setting" didn't happen.

One way to trigger it is to select Dark mode, maximize the window and open properties dialog.

@ApacheReal: Although you have gotten an answer on how to prioritize the playback chain, your DSD files can be losslessly compressed with WavPack. You cannot use a player like fb2k (nor ffmpeg) to do that, but you can drag and drop it onto wavpack.exe .

Tip: If you prefer drag+drop over command-line, then rename the executable first; this suggestion by the developer will get you better compression, verification, and tags imported:
https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,122626.msg1012159.html#msg1012159
Another option like {--allow-huge-tags} might be necessary if it has biggg album art. ID3v2.4 is at test version stage with an executable posted here: https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123684.0.html

(WavPack will reject DST-compressed DSDIFF files - already compressed heavier than WavPack can - as well as the .wsd file format.)

i run win10 in dark mode on uhd screen scaled 125%. the visibility of everything is worse readable (for me) in v.2 vs. v.1.6.
is there an option to scale up and colour the fonts, also for submenus and preferences? also it would be nice to be able to resize the preferences window when working with advanced options.

When I use 2.0 an dalter any tags, the playback statistics component does not act as expected:
The "date added" info gets updated with the date and time of the tag alteration.

In foobar 1.x, the date added field is not changed.

I use latest versions in both 1 and 2 but will stop using 2 even though I love it...
I really want to keep my original date added info

Beta27 x32 and x64 under WINE/Linux - the only GUI bug I can observe is the Library view in dark mode:

I don't know if It is foobar2000 fault or simply lack of wine support for dark themes but without tweaking the default look of foobar dark mode has some odd looking zones, but my Album List didn't look as bad as yours

(https://i.imgur.com/CQvqRxF.png)

Some can be changed with the winecfg tool, but others like the active tab doesn't obey any of it and the gray background with black text is very hard to read. If someone knows how modified, it will be much appreciated.

One thing that seems like a bug is the status bars (from main window, properties, etc.) that gets all blurry.

(https://i.imgur.com/OX3z2DP.png)

but at the end doesn't look so bad

Beta27x64 still have random crashes.
Open foobar, leave minimized 5+ min. Click play. Crash.
Open foobar, start play immediately play 2 tracks, on 3rd try to delete file via global hotkey. Crash.

So once again I go back to beta24 without crashes.
Also question. Can I disable annoying "this version is over 8 weeks old"?

Looked into matching crash report data, looks like your config.sqlite in foobar2000 profile is corrupted, please make a backup and delete.
A future version will recover from this automatically.

Looks like you were right. Deleted config.sqlite, set settings from scratch (and manually set total time played from old config) and so far no crashes. Will update if something changes in next few days.
Do devs need my old config.sqlite that provokes crashes?

Hello
I believe this is an actual bug in foobar's asio audio routing, but if i have worng you can move it to proper section.
I want to use foobar as upnp renderer/player because Jriver is sometimes resource heavy if you want to surf and listen to music at the same time, it starts to lag both the music and the webbrowser.
I am using dephonica as crossover with my 8-ch dac. But foobar asio wont show all channels, it only shows 6 out of 8 channels.
This crossover is a freeeware now, so the full version is the one we get with all eight channels to use.
But foobar asio messes up all audio routing, it routs all channels wrong, and some channels aren't even there, and some channels dosent even play at all, or some channels play to same channel, this with Dephonica.
And this also applies to asio4all, messed up audio routing, even if all channels are there and plying, but in the wrong order, a little better, but i shouldn't be forced to totally reconfigure Dephonica to use foobar.
It works all correct in all other applications that uses asio. Like Jriver for example.
in dephonica CH-CH2 is used for headphones on Dac CH1-CH2, so no crosseover there.
But here it it all mesed up and actually not really routable eihter, just nameable of what channel it is.
And in dephonica it is channel based from 1-8, and why is foobars channels totally messed up comparing to all other routing programs out there?, i can switch to other programs that uses asio and link to dephonica and it just works as the crossover is preconfigured with slopes on channels 3-8 to an 3-way active setup, but with foobar this seems impossible. Because of wrong channel order and no real way to actually reroute the channel (tested with asio4all, and it just gave it an name, not an actual reroute).

Also tested to downmix 7.1 / 5.1 to stereo, but to no luck, so i am stuck.

My config
Asus Strix X570e-gaming
3600mhz corsair SL Pro 32 GB
EVGA 750 G2 PSU

Windows 11 64bit

I think you have selected a dark theme at you Desktop Environment (DE) level and it looks like foobar is following it.
I have something different: a light theme at my DE and have selected "Dark Blue" colors set in "View > Layout > Quick setup" in foobar directly.
Please try to change your color set in foobar to something different than your DE and check if all foobar elements are painted consistently, differently than the rest of your DE.

A nice view setup, BTW. Everything under control in one screen.

I wish it did. Yes I have a Dark theme in Desktop and I want a Dark foobar, but I'm on Linux, running foobar through wine, and it didn't detect if I have a dark or light theme in my desktop. Selecting "use system setting" only give the old fashion XP style default wine theme. If I want dark foobar I must set Dark mode and here is when not all elements are themed. The same happens with the light foobar theme.

I don't think that it was foobar fault, it searches for one condition that is not meet in my case (no dark theme support in wine). All the correction must be set in wine itself, so in fact, foobar has his own color, independent of my desktop selection.

Will be cool that foobar will gives more customization elements, but I supposed that it is not necessary on Windows.

Hello.

Latest foobar2000 v1.6.16 and foobar2000 v2.0 still can't output 32bit files properly. It playback ok, status bar shows that it is 32bit, but my DAC internal test shows that it is 24bit instead of 32bit. When i test the same files with JRiver Media Center, DAC screen shows it as 32bit.

I use ASIO Output 2.1.2 and my DAC is RME ADI-2 Pro FS. The testing files i use are special wav files for testing bit-perfect playback of RME  ADI-2 Pro FS

Can someone else check if it is possible to output 32bit files properly?

I can't answer your question, but some time ago I checked that Foobar still can't losslessly convert 32 bit file into 32 bit files. If it is still the same.....most probably it also can't play such files losslessly.

fb2k 1.x operates with 32-bit float internally, and so it cannot do 32-bit integer in a lossless manner.

Version 2 is still at beta stage, so I'd be patient. It can verify 32-bit integer FLAC files, but I have no idea what it can output.
(For DACing it doesn't matter, there is still nothing that can deliver the 25th bit, had it even been audible. There is a chip that boasts 140 dB dynamic range (in mono only!) - but in real measured environments it doesn't fully hit 20 bits: http://archimago.blogspot.com/2017/06/measurements-oppo-sonica-dac-ess-sabre.html )

Sorry for that. I asked you personally because you are professional developer and can diagnose this problem.
Porcus is incorrect. When volume in foobar is at max 0dB, foobar does not do internal processing and must output bits as they are in file. (if the intput of dac can accept it)

When  volume in foobar is at max 0dB and the file is 24bit it outputs bit-perfect as in file.
But if the file is 32bit integer foobar outputs it as 24bit simply by trunkating last 8bits. And the output is not bitperfect then.
So my question why it is so?

JRiver Media Center outputs 32bit integer as is at 32bit.

32 bit foobar operates in 32 float so can't losslessly convert or play 32 integers - understandable. But why 64 bit foobar (which operates in 64 float) can't losslesly play or convert 32 integers?

Hi. I've just joined as I have a problem and I'm not sure if it's a bug?

I tried FOO about 7 months ago and I'm now running V 1.6.16. I'm running it on my laptop.
Originally I had it look for folders in 2 locations. One was on my C Drive and the other an external drive that I would switch on before running it and it found data from both sources.
Recently I decided to put all the music on the External Drive and moved the stuff off my C Drive as I wanted to free a bit of space.

It works fine but it's still looking for files from my C Drive. "Unable to open item for playback (Object not found):"

I only have the one set of folders configured and all the music is stored in Sub Folders and again that all works fine as I like random mode a lot and just listen whilst I work.

Why is it still looking for the C Drive as well though. That's what I can figure out. It just skips them when it's randomly looking around, but still looking at C. Can this be fixed, or is it a bug?

Thanks

To me this sounds like you are talking about playlists and not media library. If you had configured an autoplaylist, it would update the playlist with only active files, but most apparently you have just put all your music from your media library as a regular playlist. Go to Edit->Remove dead items.

To have all your library in an autoplaylist go to Library->Album List and right click on your "All Music" and click "Create Autoplaylist" that way your playlist has all your songs from your library and it will update when your library updates.

Porcus is correct, you're wrong.  foobar2000 converts everything to 32-bit floating point in 32-bit versions of the application where 64-bit versions (2.0 or newer) convert everything to 64-bit floating point.  foobar2000 does internal processing at all times regardless of the volume setting.  It's just at 0 dB that this processing is simply a lossless passthrough of sorts for most formats up to 24-bit integers (i.e. reversible) in 32-bit versions.  I know I'm repeating what has been said, but maybe you need to hear it from somebody else.

I understand that internal processing is 32-bit floating point or 64-bit floating point. But the input of my DAC is 32bit. So after processing foobar have to convert the data from 32-bit floating point to 32bit integer. Or to 24bit integer for DAC with 24bit inputs. There is even an option "Output data format" 16/24/32bit to choose.

So i have 3 questions:

1. Why foobar outputs data in 24bit, even if i choose Output data format as 32bit? (My DAC internal test indicates that it is 24bit)
2. If the volume is changed and not 0dB, foobar will process and convert the data from 32-bit floating point to 32bit integer or to 24bit integer?
3. How can i play in foobar 32bit files on a 32bit DAC bit-perfect? Other programs can do this a long ago.

Hello.

Latest foobar2000 v1.6.16 and foobar2000 v2.0 still can't output 32bit files properly. It playback ok, status bar shows that it is 32bit, but my DAC internal test shows that it is 24bit instead of 32bit. When i test the same files with JRiver Media Center, DAC screen shows it as 32bit.

I use ASIO Output 2.1.2 and my DAC is RME ADI-2 Pro FS. The testing files i use are special wav files for testing bit-perfect playback of RME  ADI-2 Pro FS

Can someone else check if it is possible to output 32bit files properly?
It's been mentioned a few times but I'll say it again:

You need 64-bit foobar2000 v2.0 to do what you ask for.

You haven't explicitly said so but from your post I conclude that you're running the 32bit version, because that's the only way you can possibly use ASIO Output v2.1.2, rather than v2.2 with 64bit support.
The reason for this is that ALL components must be rebuilt to operate on 64bit floatingpoint data, I can't just add it without breaking all components, so I decided to introduce it along with another change that requires new builds of all components.
If you're running 64-bit foobar2000 with latest ASIO output and still getting bad behavior, please say so and I'll investigate.

OK, so 64-bit beta now does 64-bit signal path - "no matter what" output? (Presuming that you don't pass it to a Windows 32-bit audio mixer.)
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: Peter on 2023-03-23 14:08:36
Signal path is hardcoded. audio_sample type is defined to float32 for 32bit foobar2000, 64bit for foobar2000. It can't be changed at runtime.

In 64-bit foobar2000:
All decoders output float64 audio.
All DSPs take and produce float64 audio (what they use internally is another story).
All outputs take float64 audio (though all have to downconvert it as no real life device accepts float64 data).

If I changed these audio_sample definitions, it would produce a foobar2000 build that can't run any existing components, because audio_sample format is an essential part of all audio related component interfaces.
That is why I chose to change it for foobar2000 64-bit, since all components needed rebuilding anyway. I'm not entirely sure if it makes sense, but I'll never have a chance to change it again.

I've tested latest beta foobar v2.0 x64 with ASIO driver 2.2 x64
At last foobar can output 32bit files correct and bit-perfect!!!

There is only one problem, there is no option to choose 32bit ASIO devices now. Only 64bit ASIO drivers supported.
On v1.6.16 there was support for both driver versions. And we have to wait for all plugins to be updated to x64. It will take a long time i think.

As far as i remember long ago there was foobar2000 0.8.3 with 64bit internal processing and 32bit ASIO output with Otachan plugin. And foobar2000 0.8.3 was a 32bit prorgam. It was fenomenal for that time! Thank you Peter.

Is it possible to implement 64bit internal processing for 32bit versions v1.6.x and v2.0 too? (at least just for volume control)

Hi @Peter,
I just tested foobar 2 beta 27 64bit and tried to convert 32 bit integer wavpack and flac to flac or wav or wavpack and I got either error or 32 bit float. So is it possible to convert to 32 integer, if so how, if not will it be in the future?
I tried flac 1.4.2, ffmpeg6.0 and wavpack 5.6. Errors or 32 floats.
DBpoweramp does it, foobar does not.

Default: Primay Sound Driver - not bit perfect at all !

Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=off Use event=on in Advanced menu (Default foobar options) - very distorted audio!!!
Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=off Use event=off in Advanced menu - very distorted audio!!!
Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=on Use event=on in Advanced menu - very distorted audio!!!
Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=on Use event=off in Advanced menu  16bit output 16bit file - bit perfect 16bit
Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=on Use event=off in Advanced menu  16bit output 24bit file - bit perfect (but 16bit)
Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=on Use event=off in Advanced menu  24bit output 24bit file - bit perfect 24bit
Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=on Use event=off in Advanced menu  24bit output 32bit file - bit perfect (16bit, not 24bit)

Default: RME DAC (exclusive) - Exclusive output overrides=on Use event=off in Advanced menu  32bit output 32bit file - bit perfect 32bit
ASIO: RME DAC - bit perfect (with all samling rates and bitrates)

So there is only 2 good options:
1. ASIO output
2. WASAPI (exclusive) with special settings: 32bit output, Exclusive output overrides=on, Use event=off in Advanced menu


Peter, if it is impossible to fix all exclusive modes, maybe just set my settings in Advanced menu by default in foobar?

You write that the default WASAPI exlusive settings in foobar work for most cases. I've tested many souncards and DACs with them, and none of them are usable. The settings that i recommend are useable for most cases.

You write that the default WASAPI exlusive settings in foobar work for most cases. I've tested many souncards and DACs with them, and none of them are usable. The settings that i recommend are useable for most cases.

WASAPI (exclusive) settings: Exclusive output overrides=on, Use event=off in Advanced menu

hmm..
 I have Realtek UAD driver v6.0.9492.1 for said audio chipset..
- Realtek® ALC1220A 8-Channel High Definition Audio CODEC for my ASUS PRIME x570-PRO latest BIOS v4602.
for devices I always point to my Realtek (speakers) output and never use the exclusive mode... hmm...
never had any issues as far as I can tell...
but best of luck figuring this out,, or a bug fix..

but my point is, is your drivers up to date?

I've showed with my tests, that the benefit of using WASAPI exclusive or ASIO is only if you want to have bi-perfect playback, i.e. ideal quality as it was recorded.

The default mode that everyone and you uses is all purpose for everething in Windows. But it is not bit-perfect. And of cource this default mode can't switch the sample rate of your souncard. By default windows configure every souncard samplerate at 48kHz and it is fixed for every program that you use. But if you play music files from foobar wich are mostly 44.1kHz, then windows will resamle it from 44.1kHz to default 48kHz, and so the sound will become even worse.

WASAPI exclusive mode in foobar can change this samplerate, and the sound didn't change and that's why it is perfect.
You can check it in settings of your soundcard during playback

I just verified that v2.0 beta 24 doesn't exhibit this behavior. I am using 32-bit Portable, if that matters.
Thanks, looking into it, though I can't recreate it so far.

What about beta 25 and 26?
https://www.foobar2000.org/getfile/foobar2000_v2.0_beta_25.exe
https://www.foobar2000.org/getfile/foobar2000_v2.0_beta_26.exe

What exact audio device are you using?
ASIO etc perhaps?

Sorry for the delay. Difficult days. Anyway...
Same settings were used in all cases. I verified that the behavior only happens with "Enable smooth seeking, pause and volume changes" on (50ms for all except 0ms for fade in on manual track change) in conjunction with certain DSPs (Stereo Convolver and/or MathAudio Headphone EQ will each cause the bug). Audio devices were a Schiit Modius in exclusive mode 24-bit and also my onboard realtek device non-exclusive. Both devices exhibited the behavior. If you want, I can 7z archive my foobar portable install and send it to you with sample tracks which tend to make the bug very audible.

*Edit*
Just did some more tests. Checked and made sure some more settings were the same.
Behavior is there in 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28.
I guess that means I need to test with older versions.
Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: Cannonaire on 2023-03-28 02:17:00
More testing. The bug is present even in beta 20. Same rules apply - turning off "Enable smooth seeking, pause and volume changes" will make it stop, or removing the identified DSPs.
One more test for now. The bug is there even in v1.6.10. I guess it's not a new bug, but a bad interaction between the identified DSPs and smooth seeking.

*Final edit*
I believe my confusion came from the audio devices with "DEFAULT" at the beginning automatically disabling smooth seeking, which prevented the bug in some cases.

Thank you.

*Even more final edit*
On a whim, I decided to also test with 0ms for both fade in and fade out on manual track change, and also 50ms for both. The bug persists in both cases.

I tried a fresh installation, and it didn't have the bug until I also installed and added foo_dsp_stereoconv and Resampler (SRC).

To reproduce the bug:

1. Install foobar2000 beta 28 portable (or really any version even as far back as 1.6.10. I've only tried with portable.)

2. Install these components
Stereo Convolver (linked) (MathAudio Headphone EQ seems to work as well, but I haven't tested it as thoroughly)
https://foobar.hyv.fi/2.0/?view=foo_dsp_stereoconv
Resampler SRC:
https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_dsp_src_resampler

3. Add the two DSPs in order (screenshot included)
Stereo Convolver
Resampler (SRC)

4. Configure Resampler (SRC) with target "Upsample 4x" and Mode "Best Sinc Interpolator". Stereo Convolver can use the default settings and still reproduce the bug, though I normally use different impulses.
*note - My test tracks were both 44100Hz 16-bit and very loud (almost reaching -0dB)

5. Turn On "Enable smooth seeking, pause and volume changes" (I use 50ms for all except fade in on manual track change, but it doesn't seem to matter)

6. Manually change between tracks.

The bug doesn't happen on every manual track change, but it is fairly frequent, and it occurs much more often - almost every time - when more DSPs are added. I realize this is pretty specific and these components are not yours (Peter), but it is a real setup I use, and it still only causes the bug when smooth seeking is enabled. Thank you for reading.

Converter in foobar v2.0 have 3 issues:

1. I have playlist with 32bit int files in wav or flac. If i want to export it to 32bit int wav without bitdepth change, just format conversion, there is no such option. Only 32bit, but it's floating. So the bits in files will be changed. Maybe it's wise to add such an option to choose 32bit or 32bit-float?
2. Even if i press convert, converter doesn't remind of lossy bits operation. I checked foobar v1.6.16, it does remind
3. After conversion there is annoying window 'Converter output'. And there is no option to disable it

Post by: Cannonaire on 2023-03-29 07:15:54
Possible workarounds:
  • Increase output buffer length - smooth mode starts playing after 1/4th of the buffer is ready, that would be 250ms with defaults; if more audio audio doesn't arrive in time after that, glitch happens. Try 5000ms output buffer instead of the default 1000ms please.
  • Change automatic resampling behavior - by default, SSRC is used to resample played audio to match Windows Mixer sample rate. SSRC which isn't very CPU efficient, you can set Advanced Preferences / Tools / Automatic Resampling to "Resampler (RetroArch)", without the quotation marks, or to any other name of DSP which you wish to be used for implicit resampling.
Please report if either of the above helps.
They didn't help. Buffer length didn't seem to affect it at all.
Regarding the resampler I've been using - I've been upsampling to 176400Hz for final output because I recall seeing graphs which showed the DAC handled it more cleanly, however I can't claim that for certain because I can't find said graphs anymore and I don't think I could tell a difference either way. I think for now I'm just going to remove that resampler from the DSP chain and listen at 44100Hz. It's also important to note that this DAC was in exclusive mode, so I don't think the automatic resampler would have been activated during my tests except on the other audio device. Oddly, I use the same resampler earlier in the chain and it never causes a problem unless it comes after the Stereo Convolver or other offending component.

Not sure if this is bug of feature or neither, but anyway:

* Fair enough: If I make changes to a file outside fb2k - keeping time stamp - fb2k does not "see" the change unless I instruct to reload info.
* But: If I even play the file, fb2k does not update. Any reason not to? Obviously it has to read the file (and the files in question are FLAC, with metadata at the beginning.)

There are 32 bit int audio files (maybe not many but still there are) so some people want to use them. If we can play and convert 16bit and 24 bit files properly why make it impossible to play and convert 32 bit int files properly? It was "technically" impossible in 32 bit FB but in 64 bit FB it should be normal - out-of-the-box thing. To be honest I thought that this is the main reason to implement 64 bit FB. I do not need to know how many people and why want to use it. If it will be implemented I surely will use it. Someone said earlier that his DAC can "see" 32bit int file so why not to let him use this feature (and again: I do not need to know why he needs it or does it make any audible difference, it just is possible and FB2.0 64 bit can do it technically, so why not?) If there is any reason to deliberately block such a feature why not also block 24 bit or 16 bit? Or anything else? I do not want to offend you (I am really grateful for your hard work on this program) and I do not know anything about programming - maybe it is very hard to implement such a feature - if so, probably most users will understand why it is not implemented but if it is just a matter of "justification" of someones need to use 32 bit int then I still hope that one day you will implement, even without legitimate purpose.  Especcially that another program of yours can do it already. Once again - big thankyou for your program.

32bit fixedpoint audio only makes sense in DAC design - handling unpadded 24bit data is generally more complex than handling the same data padded to 32bit. However, you're never actually going to hear or measure differences in last 8 bits in analog signal coming out of your DAC.

So, playback of 32bit fixedpoint was working well enough in past foobar2000 versions already - as you can never possibly hear or measure the difference in analog output.

That said, I'm not actively blocking anything, current behavior of Converter is an oversight that is being corrected.

Peter, if it is impossible to fix all exclusive modes, maybe just set my settings in Advanced menu by default in foobar?
Is the device name exactly spelled "RME DAC" ?
I'll add it to internal workarounds list so you no longer need to change advanced settings.

1. The device name is RME ADI-2 Pro FS, but in foobar its name is different for different RME outputs.

Please see my attachment. By the way i will suggest to rename all exlusive outputs from 'Default: Souncard name [exclusive]' to 'Exclusive: Souncard name'. Because WASAPI exclusive output is not a default in Windows and will confuse some users what to choose. And maybe it's possible to display group of the same cards 'RME ADI-2 Pro' first and the name of its output after, so that they will be in correct alphabetical order. I mean like this:

Default: RME ADI-2 Pro: AES
Default: RME ADI-2 Pro: Analog (1+2)
Default: RME ADI-2 Pro: Phones

Exclusive: RME ADI-2 Pro: AES
Exclusive: RME ADI-2 Pro: Analog (1+2)
Exclusive: RME ADI-2 Pro: Phones



2. I have many other different players and DACs, and almost all of them works correct for WASAPI exclusive output with the settings i found.
Exclusive output overrides=on Use event=off in Advanced menu
That's why i thought maybe this settings will be optimal as default for everyone (if one prefer to use WASAPI exclusive output).


3. My third question is why 3 other combination of exclusive output settings don't work?
RME drivers are known to be one of the best and reference among professional DACs and souncards.

PS
I'm still waiting for someone to enlighten me about legitimate purposes of 32bit integer audio. I can't think of any.

The difference in 24bit files and 32bit is unnoticeable for human hearing. But only if there is no processing done with bits. I mean No volume change and resampling in foobar, no digital volume change in DAC.

But if for example you play 24bit file in foobar and change volume -12 or -24 dB, foobar will convert 32bit floating output to 24bit int without dithring, and there will remain only 20bits of data, 4 MSB bits will be lost. The DAC has its own processor and if volume is changed in DAC some information will be lost further.

If foobar will convert 64bit floating output to 32bit int and DAC has 32bit input, then all original 24bits will be preserved and DAC will receive them all, even if foobar change volume down to -48dB (wich is -8bits). Then DAC will process volume control in 42bits internaly, then it will make conversion to final 32bits with special dithering. After that DAC chip will do 16x resampling with full 24bits (not 20bits like in first examle). RME claims that in such a way their digital volume control is one of the best and is even better than analog volume control


Most modern good quality DACs have 32bit input and 32bit D/A chip.

P.S. I've found a link with another good comment about this 32 bit int problem in foobar:

This is RME manual (see attachement pages 89-90)

34.20 Digital Volume Control

The ADI-2 Pro deliberately avoids an analog level adjustment by means of a potentiometer. Its
digital version surpasses an analog one in practically every conceivable point. Typical
disadvantages of setting with potentiometers:
• Synchronicity errors lead to panoramic shifts and significant volume deviations left / right, in
particular near the end points of the adjustment range.
• In the middle setting range, there is an increased crosstalk and changes in the frequency
response. Changes in the frequency response also occur at the end regions of the
adjustment path.
• The setting range for optimum volume adjustment is often too small, or at the lower or
upper end of the potentiometer's adjustment range.
• Non-reproducible settings (except 0 and 11).
• Higher THD/THD+N. A point well known to measurement technicians. As soon as an
analog potentiometer is in the signal path, the unstable contact between wiper and resistive
track causes noise, which contains both THD (distortion) and N (noise), even in the
stationary state. Thus the -110 dB of a DAC quickly gets reduced to for example -80 or -70
dB.

Special volume ICs, which activate different resistance values by means of numerous electronic
switches, avoid some of the above mentioned points. Unfortunately, even the best of these ICs
do not achieve either THD or dynamics of the DACs used in the ADI-2 Pro, thus would affect its
analog output signal.

However, none of this is an issue with RME's digital volume control!
In fact an analog volume control has a (theoretical) advantage in only one point, namely the
maximum signal to noise ratio at a higher level reduction. In reality, current circuitry overturns
the theory, and the SNR at the output of such a device is no better than that of a digitally controlled
one. This is even more true the better the DA converter works and the less noise it has -
just like the ADI-2 Pro, which provides the maximum noise ratio over a wide level range of 20
dB, thanks to its four reference levels realized in the analog domain.

The most often cited issue of a digital volume control is an alleged loss of resolution at higher
attenuation. An example: 117 dB dynamic roughly equals 19 bit resolution. A volume attenuation
of 48 dB (8 bit) leaves 11 bit of resolution. Such a simple, but important details omitting
argumentation, usually ends with: the music must sound distorted in quieter parts, and the signal
to noise ratio is down to a useless 69 dB.

The former is simply wrong, the latter irrelevant in practice. Indeed there is a reduced signal to
noise ratio, but it doesn't matter, as the noise was not audible before (below the hearing threshold),
and is still not audible after lowering the level. And the reduced SNR also applies to
devices with potentiometers, since the potentiometer is never placed at the output, but in the
middle of the circuit, followed by further electronics which also add some basic noise.
The quality of the ADI-2 Pro's digital volume control is best shown by measurements. Hard
times coming up for convinced supporters of the analog control, because here it is very clear
that the disadvantages of a digital volume adjustment, such as roughness and distortions at
higher attenuation, simply do not exist - at least with RME.

The following measurement shows a digital full-scale sine of 1 kHz, 16 bits without dither, which
is reduced in level by 40 dB. Also shown are a full-scale sine of 1 kHz with 24 bit, at 60 dB and
96.3 dB level attenuation, which is the lowest volume setting the ADI-2 Pro offers.
A high-resolution FFT like HpW Works makes it possible to disassemble the signal into
individual frequencies, and to identify unwanted components down to a level of -190 dBFS. The
measurement shows that the undithered 16 bit signal does not produce any distortion or other
tones above -170 dBFS. So at a volume setting of -40 dB the measurable THD is -130 dB. At 24
bit a volume setting of -60 dB also achieves -130 dB without distortion. And at a volume setting
of -96.3 dB there are still -93 dB THD measurable.

These results clearly show that distortion products of the digital volume control are not drowned
by the DAC's noise, but are not generated at all. It works perfectly even with an undithered 16
bit signal, no detectable distortion products are produced.

If the volume control is measured at the analog output, the demonstrable THD is reduced to
around -100 dB at a volume setting of -60 dB, by the self-noise of the DAC (SNR 117 dB RMS
unweighted). In the above measurement that would be seen as straight noise floor at -160
dBFS. The digital volume control of the ADI-2 Pro therefore works much more precisely and
cleaner than required for current top-level DACs.

In summary:
RME's digital volume control in 42 bit TotalMix technology avoids all the disadvantages of
analog level control via pots, is easy to use, offers reproducible settings, and the highest sound
quality.

Beta 29 x64, portable.
Upon opening FB2K window is not maximized. If I maximize the window, exit, restart, the window is not maximized again. Does not happen in Beta 27 (haven't tested Beta 28).
29 too.

F2K v2.0 beta 29
Two playlist annoyances:
-it does still have those abrupt jumps to anywhere when changing something that can alter the name of the group.
-it's very slow switch from tab to tab that it has a lot of content (more than 500 items and up), and the situation gets worse the more number of items.
Tested on 100k tracks in multiple tabs, everything works for me.

Maybe this is reported before, but I did not find it:

In Foobar2000 V2.0 beta 30 64 bits version: On a large library when right clicking in the Album List (Folder view) on a large folder or the root folder Foobar freezes (gets unresponsive) for several minutes before showing the context menu,

In the  V2 beta 30 32 bits version the context menu appears much quicker, but is still slower than in Foobar 1.6.

I noticed this problem since (around) V2.0 beta 26.

I will try to remove and rebuild the library in the 64 bits version. In all other versions of Foobar (1.6 and v2 32 bits) it works fine with the same source files.

Thanks. Will do and let you know.

- deleted the metadb.sqlite file
- removed the music folders in Preferences|Media libray
- Added them again
- Pressed Apply and waited until Foobar was completely ready with scanning the library

Still the same problem. Right clicking in the Album list on the root folder (large library around 9000 albums) freezes V2 64 bits for several minutes (none responding) before showing the context menu.
I have a portable install of all Foobars (V2 64 and 32bit and V1.6) on a NUC with internal M.2 Samsung SSD. As said, no problem with the V2 32 bit version and no problem with the 1.6 version. All use the same source folders.

It almost seems if the 64 bit version is doing an unindexed search in the database for all the properties before showing the context menu. If I right click in the Album List on a folder with fewer albums the context menu appears quicker. It seems directly related to the number of albums/tracks. As said; V2 32 bits and V1.6 work fine.

As I understand now this is not a common problem or bug in the V2 beta version, but more an individual problem on my side.

I must say I have exactly the same components installed in the 32 bits and 64 bits version, but I will remove them from the 64 bit version and see what happens.

I can concur. If I download the 32 bits version with Edge I always had to choose 'run anyway' because of a smartscreen warning, but now it won't download at all ('Can not download. Virus detected'). This is coming from the standard Windows Defender. No other anti virus programs installed.

Now this is a newer Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml virus compared to the  Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.A!ml in Beta 29

What the hell is going on here? I mean sure defender can make one false alarm, but that's two different trojans in 2 setups and unless something drastic was done to the program, it is practically impossible to detect a whole new trojan, unless it's actually there...

Could the dev please take a look at the malware protection on their build PC? and maybe add MD5 checksums, Virus Total with the download links now?

I'm not downloading this version or running the newer Beta 29/30 now, I'm backing up my settings, scan them to ensure 0 malware, and downgrading the program until this situation is responded properly and solved.

2 different trojans in 2 consecutive builds with minor changes... something's off...

Please look this up dev, thank you very much

yes, it needs to be updated. However i never had a problem with it.
edit: wrong response cause wrong thread.


1. The abrupt changes is mostly triggered when there's a lot of groups in a scroll-able playlist
X

2. For the bad performance on playlist tabs, just simply switch from one to another playlist tab in which at least one of them has more than x00 elements, but you can test it for  better proof with more than 3000 elements with or without the "cover" columns in it.
It's like some recalculations is done behind the scenes every time the tab is showed.
I had the old stable version too (v1.6.14) with the (almost) same columns and tabs with the (again almost) same number of items in it, and i hadn't those issues.
on the changelog, in the beta 20 there's a mention that it was fixed but is partial
Playlist group layout optimizations reverted (no more scrollbar jumping around stupidly), unless in the new low memory mode.
and
Fixed playlist layout glitch causing unwanted scrolling during certain events. on beta 27
that's a partial solution, i understand, it's a beta yet.
For people that use this program, have you seen this bug?

File Integrity Verifier 1.4.2 and integrted version in foobar 2.0 has a bug:
When using "Verify album with acurate rip" shows that disc is not acurate if the whole disc or some of the tracks are HDCD and foo_hdcd.dll is installed
If i remove foo_hdcd.dll, then "Verify album with acurate rip" shows that disc is acurate.
The same problem is when CD is tagged as Pre-emphasis and foo_deemph.dll 0.1.1 is installed, "Verify album with acurate rip" shows that disc is not acurate

So i think File Integrity Verifier must ignore all postprocessing decoders, like foo_hdcd.dll, foo_deemph.dll and others


@Peter, why there is no option in foobar to temporary disable installed postprocessors, like the checkbox options in 'Playback > Decoding' menu?

Bug acknowledged and fixed for the next update, normal Verifier suppresses postprocessing, I forgot to do this for AccurateRip checking.
I don't think a global switch for it is feasible, it's something negotiated between decoders and frontends.
Though individual postprocessing components could implement their own switches.

Some discs play incorrect with HDCD decoder, some with De-emphasis. And to check it or playback without errors i have to completely uninstall this foobar components. And then install them again for normal discs. It's unconvinient.

1. I will suggest to add checkboxes in 'Preferences: Installed components' menu to enable or disable any component without uninstalling.
2. Or add a checkboxes in 'Preferences: Playback > Postprocessors' menu with all installed postprocessors in it.

Any chance of taking another look at the Playback Statistics issue of tag writes interrupting playback (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,122553.0.html)? IIRC changes were made in the first 2.0 beta so that tag writes didn't apply until track stop or change (perfect), but AFAIK they were rolled back when the component was separated out again. Possibly an oversight?

(sorry if this is in the wrong place, there isn't a Playback Statistics thread listed on the component repository (https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_playcount).)

I had the same experience that in the middle of some songs I had just noise. Songs work fine in 1.6.16.
I converted the container (Monkey's audio) to Flac. Resulting flac play fine on fb2k beta 31 x86.
I installed Monkey's audio component 10.07 to fb2k x86 and now also the original Monkey's audio files play fine.

Seems as if the internal fb2k beta 31 x86 Monkey's audio component is the culprit.

Seems as if the internal fb2k beta 31 x86 Monkey's audio component is the culprit.
With or without the component?
Monkey's is changing quickly at the moment - sometimes several new versions a day - so from beta 28, fb2k switched to using ffmpeg to decode. But there is a component that tries to stay a bit more up-to-date.

If you didn't use that component - just to play without - then probably it is an ffmpeg issue.
Try the same file with ffplay and see what happens? ffmpeg has chosen to leave a few features completely out of their Monkey's decoder. But, even for "supported" signals, ffmpeg isn't always doing the right thing. (Bug in its WavPack decoder (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,122810), bug in its MPEG-2 decoder (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,123198.0.html), and ffplay chokes on FLAC files with (stupidly) small block sizes and the dev doesn't care (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,121478.msg1020251.html#msg1020251).)

If you did use the component ... try to update it. And/or stay patient, depending on what signal you tried to ape-compress - you cannot expect not-yet-stable codec features to be supported from day one.

Did some experimenting with DTS within a MKV container.
On 1.6.16 I need external ffmpeg decoder wrapper to play/list it and everything works as intended (correct codec and bitrate reported).

On fb2k beta 31 x86 things are different. Whether I use the external ffmpeg decoder or not for MKV results are the same.
Upon listing fb2k beta 31 x86 reports the correct codec (DTS in this case) but the overall bitrate of the container MKV.
Upon playing fb2k beta 31 x86 reports the wrong codec (MKV) but the correct bitrate of the playing DTS stream.

The new foobar2000 version (specifically, 64bit foobar2000) reports accurate results. The old version can't possibly report these because it converts int32 to float32 internally before comparing, so it reads the same data from both of these files.

I'll look again for version 2.1, at this point I just want 2.0 out with no glaring bugs.

foobar2000 2.0 beta 32 x86
It seems to have stopped ordering DSP chains by name and reverted to former behavior of ordering by when they were created.
If this was intentional, I need to say that ordering by name is more intuitive and saves time. I renamed all of my chains to have numbers at the beginning so that they would always be in the correct order.

**Edit**
Never mind. Seems closing and reopening is what makes them reorder. No problem here!

what types of Component addons are you perhaps using?
standard install or portable?

Portable install.

OK, I've upgraded again from beta 31 and the problem hasn't appeared. Must have been a random thing - I did restart and test again before reporting last time!
Sorry for the red herring. Thanks for your work 🙏🏼

Hi, I'm still receiving the following start error message after the clean installation of v2.0 beta 33 64bit Win 10:

(https://www.dropbox.com/s/qdhninszqefwi5h/Capture.PNG?dl=1)

Since version 31 the same error happens also for version 27 - 32.
I'm able to get a functioning Foobar installation with a workaround but I think it would be better to fix this error as I have read that the version 33 is a release candidate build.

@beat8000 - the function uPrintCrashInfo_StartLogging that you are missing is in shared.dll. Do you somehow have an old version of that dll file in the foobar2000 directory? Replacing shared.dll with an old version creates that exact problem.

I'd be curious to know how you created this bugged situation and what your workaround is.

Hi @Case
For a clean installation I always delete the two indicated Foobar folders during the uninstall.
Therefore the file shared.dll will be newly created but the timestamp is now older (16.04. -19:44) than the one of foobar2000.exe (16.4. - 19.45).

As a workaround I have used the same fix as I have described for the "missing shared.dll error" in my previous post
https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,122847.msg1021504.html#msg1021504:

During the update e.g. from Version 17-x64 to 24-x64 the optional features must be switched off during the first custom install. Afterwards a second install with activated optional features will complete the install without the shared.dll system error immediately or after the next Foobar start.

1. foobar can not remember a window with a playlist view that is less than 8 rows long. I set it to one row only to get foobar window as little as possible, but when I restart it, it goes to a default of 8 rows.
2. On columns ribbon the letters are light gray on white, so I can not see anything.

Hello,
I use Foobar 2000 V2 beta 31 (32 bits).
I use an auto playlist to select classic tracks not yet played
My filter pattern is:
genre LESS "8" AND ((%play_count% LESS 1) OR ((%play_count% LESS 2) AND (%last_played%  DURING LAST 1 HOURS))) AND %discnumber% LESS 6000 AND NOT %rating% IS 1
Comment:
Genre less “8” = tracks of classical music
A track read for the first time must disappear from the auto playlist after one hour
Tracks with rating=1 do not appear in the playlist

Since the installation of Foobar 2000 V2 this auto-playlist is no longer updated in real time.

To force the update you must either relaunch foobar or revalidate the filter pattern.

According to my tests:
Field-based auto-playlists update in real time when the value of the field is changed.
The auto-playlist based on time criteria does not update in real time when time criterion is checked.

thanks for your help

How do i get exclusive output on my HDMI output without craks and extreme distortion.
Whithout exclusive it all seems to work without distortion but then the output does not switch from stereo to surround and vise versa

Now i'm running the 32 bit V2.0 beta 33
I'm running the 32bit version because 1 plugin is not willing to go 64 bit.

I hav tried some of the advanced settings in foobar. 
Advanced > Playback > exclusive  output overrides on and off with diffent values. (can not go higher 100ms ??)
Advanced > Playback > Buffering some diffeent values

I tried: In Windows running the Foobar2000.exe in realtime priority ( helped in win 7 and 8 with asio ticks and pops)

Anyone any trick op there sleeves?

I think it was an issue in the Windows registry because some Volume7 and Volume8 Foobar2000 keys were locked in the registry and couldn't be deleted anymore. Therefore I have made a save of this probably invalid system and I have restored one of my valid system images.

re: time based queries...

The easiest thing to test with is the Library menu>Playback statistics>Show recently played. This opens a library search window. Now click the button on the extreme right with 3 dots>Create autoplaylist.

Now listen as normal and find tracks getting added as you listen. Works for me (tm).

thank you for your answers.
Here is a simpler example:

Query pattern:
%last_played% DURING LAST 5 MINUTES

On the screenshots below we see:
At 10:19 am we see that the playlist is well updated and real time according to the tracks played
But it is not updated to remove tracks read more than 5 minutes ago (it still contains tracks read from 9h20).

At 10;20 I revalidated the filter manually which causes the expected result

The playlist with the filter pattern
genre LESS "8" AND ((%play_count% LESS 1) OR ((%play_count% LESS 2) AND (%last_played%  DURING LAST 1 HOURS))) AND %discnumber% LESS 6000 AND NOT %rating% IS 1
cited in my first post is intended to contain unread classic tracks.
(tracks read must disappear with a one-hour latency to allow full playback before erasing).
With the V1 this mechanism worked correctly, since the V2 the tracks read for more than an hour no longer disappear in real time.

Hi Peter,

Re-Facets freezes foobar on start-up, if Re-Facets mode is set to Library and a search query is present (like "%style% HAS rock"). Freeze eats no CPU.

My config:
- beta 34, 64bit
- 40.000+ tracks
- 8 facets, 4 of them multi-value: language, genre, style, mood (a lot to compute/filter^^")

Workaround:
Setting Re-Facets mode to Playlist.

Related observation:
While updating, Re-Facet is blocking other operations. Re-Facets is very slow compared to old (in-memory) Facets. A query on my machine takes roughly 1 sec per 10k items, while old one updates almost instantly.

"Show errors" listed 14 file not found errors (guess they were from early beta, when I accidentally used 1.6 foobar to move some folders).

I cleared that error list. No new errors after restarting foobar. Button greyed out.

Forgot to mention that the freeze bug appeared in previous betas as well.

Sometimes the start-up freeze did not happen with new betas, but eventually reappeared, as my collection grew or changed my re-facets setup

Hi Peter,

First congratulations for your fantastic audio player and your constant work to continuously improve it. I use it daily to automatically choose the tracks to listen according to multicriteria (rating, playback history and so on...) among my 75,000 classical music tracks.

Since the upgrade to V2.0 the boot time has changed from 15 s to 1mn 30s.
By analysing the activity of the computer with the resource monitor (see attachment 1) we see that the slowdown is caused by very high disk activity on the system disk that contains the profile file of foobar and on the disk Z: which contains my music library.
The main disk activity takes place on the playlist files in the profile folder (...Appdata/roaming/foobar2000-v2).
I use many playlists, the largest of which contains 59,000 tracks.

Apart from this small problem during cold start, I have no other problem with response time.
The most complicated requests are executed at lightning speed.

I also noticed a spike in CPU activity every minute when foobar is running (already present with v1) (see attachment 2).
May be caused by the refresh of playlists depending on time parameter.
If so, I would have a suggestion: allow users to define the refresh period of each playlists (for some of my playlists a refresh of an hour or even a day would be enough).
Thank you for your attention

Hi Grimes,
Thanks , I had never used the console view. It contains insightful information (in particular: a corrupt file, an unexpected resampling on one of my output devices).
Attached are two console views:
one for the first foobar boot (cold boot)
the other for a foobar restart (stop and restart of foobar). (warm boot).
Warm boot is very fast because the data of the files are still present in the cache.

In my previous post I forgot to specify that all my playlists are auto playlists.
The purpose of my post was to report a slower start in V2 than in V1.  The difference is even greater because I have a large dicotheque and I use a lot of playlists.
This is not a critical issue as it only happens once a day when foobar starts cold.

Except that random instance. Which I cannot reproduce. Grey is back.

Startup seems to be fine, except Library. Please remove that corrupt Ravel FLAC from Media Library, the loading may be time-consuming. Just move the file to a directory not monitored by Media Library.
Additional you can do my recommendations for Newron's problem, a few posts above: Rebuild Library and File Integrity check.
Then post again Console output (cold/warm).

The construction architecture of the Media Library has changed fundamentally from v1 to v2.

Can you please post specifications of your computer? Most importantly, is your operating system (and foobar2000 profile) on a spinning hard disk drive, or a solid state drive?
If it's a hard disk drive, I can add mitigations for this exact case (ordered database read might help here), but you really but really want to get upgrade to *any* solid state drive, even a 10 years old one.

Hm ... tested more, and got closer to the bug - I am fairly sure it is. It is Selection:
I actually got the Selection colour "working" in ReFacets by changing it "from blue to a different blue"; I think the blue it was was the default-if-checkboxed. The "highlighting" was by doing the following:

In the playlist I then see "stripes" for the ones matched. Now they are "a different blue", but for months they have been grey. Certainly visible in light mode, not in dark mode. But then for sudden it turned blue, and by changing the blue tint ... blue it is.
By reverting to default (and closing playlist and reopening blah blah blah) and checking the Selection box to get up the "default blue" ... grey reproduced. And it is a darker grey than when Selection wasn't checked! So checking off the Selection

Thanks for the bug report.
I made a special component to turn these into crash reports:
https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_crash
Please use its deadlock troubleshooting tool to produce and submit crash reports, I'll look into them.

Edit: I just updated the component so the feature can be used even if foobar2000 locks up during early startup before you can get to relevant menu.

My computer running foobar is not connected to the internet. How do I (preferably not publically) submit the crash report?

Startup seems to be fine, except Library. Please remove that corrupt Ravel FLAC from Media Library, the loading may be time-consuming.
The construction architecture of the Media Library has changed fundamentally from v1 to v2.
Hi
Thank you for your answer.
- I replaced the corrupted file with a healthy version that brings a gain of nearly 40s to start-up time!
- I reinstalled V1.6.16 to observe the console view.

Cold starts
With V1 the Start-up time is identical to that of the V2.
But the global startup time in V1 is shorter because the playlists initialize during the start-up
while with V2 the initialization of the library continues after the startup phase
Global startup time: V2 48s vs V1 22s

Warm start V2 1s

Can you please post specifications of your computer? Most importantly, is your operating system (and foobar2000 profile) on a spinning hard disk drive, or a solid state drive?
If it's a hard disk drive, I can add mitigations for this exact case (ordered database read might help here), but you really but really want to get upgrade to *any* solid state drive, even a 10 years old one.

My configuration:
Windows Home Premium edition SP1 64bits
Processor Intel Core is-3450 3.10GHz
Windows Performance Index:
CPU: 7.5
Memory:7.6
Transfer rate of the system: 5.9 (hard Disk)

My system hard Disk is the weak point of my configuration.

After fixing the corrupted track, the cold boot time of the V2 is significantly reduced. See my answer to Grimes above.

Scroll bar is wrong in dark mode in the DSP dropdown in the top toolbar. 2.0 Beta 34 x86. I don't know if this pertains to foobar itself or ColumnsUI. I'm using ColumnsUI.
Noted, thanks.
Looks like most or all of the dropdowns on the toolbar have light mode highlight and scrollbar.

- V2 beta 8 with foo_upnp 70K tracks: 120 secs. + Startup time : 0:45 = 3 min total of startup (unresponsive UI full time)
- V2 beta 34 with foo_upnp 70K tracks: 88 secs + Startup time : 0:23 = 1:40 min  total of startup (unresponsive UI full time)
- V1.6 with foo_upnp 70K tracks: 10 secs + Startup time : 0:26 = 30 secs total of startup (but UI is responsive at ~20 s)

An improvement, but really far from v1.6 performance.

But I don’t understand how this change could improve Foobar’s startup time

Thanks for the information. Then the option is useless for you. I thought, that the spin-up of the hard disc causes the spikes. Are these spikes only with foobar2000? Possible is also a processor defect. Are these spikes really at 80% CPU? Unusable! Your computer is 13 years old. I recommend a new computer with SSD.

Hi,

fooBar 2.0 beta (until and including) 31 x86 %bitrate% show overall bitrate for MKV instead of the bitrate for the playing audiostream.
fooBar 1,6.16 %bitrate% shows the correct audiostream bitrate.

Is there some other tag for audiostream bitrate in 2.0 beta that I am unaware of?



Did some experimenting with DTS within a MKV container.
On 1.6.16 I need external ffmpeg decoder wrapper to play/list it and everything works as intended (correct codec and bitrate reported).

On fb2k beta 31 x86 things are different. Whether I use the external ffmpeg decoder or not for MKV results are the same.
Upon listing fb2k beta 31 x86 reports the correct codec (DTS in this case) but the overall bitrate of the container MKV.
Upon playing fb2k beta 31 x86 reports the wrong codec (MKV) but the correct bitrate of the playing DTS stream.

Things improved a lot in beta 35 x86. The correct kbps is reported.

Bit weird that in case of lossless DTS-HD the correct __bitspersample is reported which is not available in lossy DTS (16/20/24 bit).
I would also prefer that in codec or codec_profile the difference between DTS and DTS-HD would be reported.

Maybe beta 36 :-) ?

Ha, thanks for pointing that out.

Apparently only the lossy DTS 96/24 format is actuallly 96kHz / 24bit on compatible devices and has an embedded fallback core of 48/16 on non compatible devices.
Is that correct?

Everything below checked on beta 35.

Analogue to this E-AC3 also reports (windows/mediainfo) having a bitdepth of 32 (which doesn't show in foobar). Is this also incorrect since it is a lossy format?

About codec field within foobar (container MKV):
Sometimes foobar properties have %codec% E-AC3 and sometimes %codec%  EAC3.
In case of lossless DTS:X the %codec% field is not set (%video codec% is set correctly to H.265).

Hm ... tested more, and got closer to the bug - I am fairly sure it is. It is Selection:
I actually got the Selection colour "working" in ReFacets by changing it "from blue to a different blue"; I think the blue it was was the default-if-checkboxed. The "highlighting" was by doing the following:
* A ReFacets search in Playlist,
* then click "all".
In the playlist I then see "stripes" for the ones matched. Now they are "a different blue", but for months they have been grey. Certainly visible in light mode, not in dark mode. But then for sudden it turned blue, and by changing the blue tint ... blue it is.
By reverting to default (and closing playlist and reopening blah blah blah) and checking the Selection box to get up the "default blue" ... grey reproduced. And it is a darker grey than when Selection wasn't checked! So checking off the Selection
* should have turned it blue,
but
* does turn it to a different grey.

Weird behavior noted, thanks.
Selection color behaviors are indeed nonsensical, will be looked into for the next update after 2.0.

Update, anyway, because I upgraded to beta 35 yesterday.
But first, I had reset the page at Preferences -> Display -> Default User Interface -> Colors and Fonts.
Then upgrade to beta 35.
And grey works as should. Every time!
Then, right now I see how I could trigger the behaviour:
Just enter the same page and hit the "Selection" checkbox. Grey goes "wrong grey instead of blue".
How to fix it? As above: On the page, click on the blue and drag the slider ever so slightly, changing the colour to something different.
How to break it? Reset page again and hit the "Selection" checkbox.

In the light theme, as soon as you click on a track in the "Libraly Viewer Selection" window, the album or track selection in the Album List window disappears, and when there is a selection, for some reason it is dark blue and its color cannot be changed. It's very inconvenient, you can't see from which album the track is playing, in 1.6.16... everything is fine, the gray selection darkens a little but remains gray. In a dark theme, the gray selection remains at least a little bit visible, but in a light one, you can’t see what is playing at all.
The GIF video shows what it looks like.

Any advice out there?

1. Run the 1.6.16 installer and have it move all user components to the correct place.  For ones it refuses to move, manually move them as well as their dependencies.
2. Now create a separate portable install of 1.6.16 of that same configuration and setup and use that to test your 2.0 upgrades on.  Once you get things working you can convert back to a system install of 2.0.

TIP: If you want to test system installs, use the Windows Sandbox feature if your version of Windows supports it.  Alternately, you can use a virtual machine or a different computer to test system installs.

Be sure you have "view hidden files" enabled:
For 1.6 system installs your configuration and users components will be at "C:\Users\-USER NAME HERE-\AppData\Roaming\foobar2000\"
For 2.0 system installs your configuration and users components will be at "C:\Users\-USER NAME HERE-\AppData\Roaming\foobar2000-v2\"
For portable installs it's always "ROOT FOLDER\profile\".  If you're missing a "profile" folder don't upgrade, run the 1.6.16 installer to migrate stuff to the correct place then upgrade.

Thanks, all, for the input.

1. Run the 1.6.16 installer and have it move all user components to the correct place.  For ones it refuses to move, manually move them as well as their dependencies.
I made sure that all the components are in "...\AppData\Roaming\foobar2000", but I don't know how to check the relative dependencies.  (I did not see any option from the installer to move anything.)

2. Now create a separate portable install of 1.6.16 of that same configuration and setup...
I am able create a portable install of v1.6.16 with my config, but when I upgrade to v2.0, all settings and components are again lost.

(btw, the portable install defaulted to "Desktop"; I'm using Windows 10, and Columns UI.)

Maybe the problem lies in the dependencies you mentioned, but if everything works fine as a portable install for v1.6 on the desktop, why wouldn't a portable install of v2.0 into the same folder carry over all the settings?

Thanks, again!

You are upgrading to 32bit 2.0 right? 64bit is never going to work. A 64bit install loads components from user-components-x64 and will ignore anything in the old user-components folder.

This is not a foobar2000 limitation, just general computing. Just like you cannot upgrade 32bit windows to 64bit without zapping your entire OS partition and starting again from scratch.

edit: I've not tested this but it might be possible to retain settings going from 32bit -> 64bit if you try this...

-Install 64bit portable in a pristine brand new folder.
-Do not attempt to use it as such or make any configuration changes.
-Go and acquire 64bit versions of all your components, assuming they are available. There is no alternative to finding and installing them manually. Do it the usual way via the components dialog in fb2k.
-Once you're happy the contents of the user-components-x64 folder in this new portable install match the contents of your old user-components folder, close the new fb2k 64bit instance.
-Now browse the profile and delete everything EXCEPT the user-components-x64 folder.
-Now browse your old 32bit profile and copy all the contents to the 64bit profile.
-Run and see what happens....  :P

@pulbitz, care to create a Process Monitor log showing what goes on over there? It's highly unlikely that foobar2000 locks the database form itself, I'd suspect that is done by some other application. But just in case it is locked by foobar2000 process you may want to share some configuration details. Perhaps there is some component out there that can do it.

Thanks @pulbitz. I could replicate the error messages in the console by using your config files, but only with foo_discogger installed. It seems to do some SQLite accessing of its own too.

Thanks for the test.
However, I found it odd that uninstalling foo_discogger didn't fix the problem, so I tested again.

I deleted the foobar2000-v2 folder in its entirety, so it was completely defaulted.
I then recreated just the media library and playlists and tested them.
This didn't cause any problems.

However, if I change the "Playback | Order | Default" to "Shuffle (albums)", I get the "database is locked" issue!

Hi @pulbitz @case

IMHO it would be useful to clone the fb2k installation, reducing the library size (maybe by halfs) checking if the log still reports the same error.

From what I've been able to test, the problem is not related to foo_discogger.
It happens even with a clean foobar2000.
I've written down my tests below to make it more clear.

1. Run a completely clean foobar2000 (%APPDATA%foobar2000-v2 folder doesn't exist)
2. Close foobar2000 (%APPDATA%foobar2000-v2 folder created)

3. Unpack and copy the attached library-v2.0.7z file to %APPDATA%foobar2000-v2 folder
https://www.mediafire.com/file/s8aewprg8xjn4h4/library-v2.0.7z/file

4. Once again, run foobar2000
5. Library - Album List, Right-click on "All Music" and click "Create Autoplaylist"

Up to this point, everything is fine.

6. Playback - Order - Shuffle (albums) or Shuffle (folders)

View - Console, The "database is locked" message is repeating.
Code: [Select]
could not compile SQL:
SELECT info, infoBrowse, size, lastModified, infoBrowseTime, created, attribs, attribsValid FROM metadb WHERE name = ?
database is locked

One thing I noticed with 2.0 is that the album list doesn't swap between light/dark font when text is highlighted based on how dark your background color is?

This is how it used to look: https://i.imgur.com/vTFDDkc.png
This is how it looks now: https://i.imgur.com/wElxea4.png

If I make the background any darker it's really hard to read the text in the album list because it's black instead of white, also when anything is clicked in the playlist the highlight color is removed and turns black so it's black on black and I can't read it at all.

Yes, the color of the selection is not adjustable, and on a black background in the "Album List" window, the selection is not visible at all, in all beta versions it is, everything was waiting for it to be fixed, but not yet.

Hi,
probably not a bug per se but: I have FB1.16 - normal install and FB2x64 normal install. I checked shell integration and all associations, context menus and all in FB2 and unchecked all of those in 1.16. The Enquenue and play with show wher I right click...but the files and folders play or que in old FB1.16 instead of FB2. I already checked the registry entries and they show the path to FB2.0 (Program files not ProgramFiles(86)). So the context menu does work but with wrong version of FB. How to fix this???

Code: [Select]
Extra Prince, His Majesty Prince, P. Rince, Princ, Prince & Prince, Prince Jackson, Princes, Принс, פרינס, プリンス, 普林斯, 王子, 프린스

In some cases, foobar display it right and in other show squares.

For example, in properties main window show squares

I really like the possibility that you can convert and save files in 64 bit floating point but I have a case of when I convert a 6 channel 24 bit 48 KHz WAV-file into a stereo 64 bit floating point 48 KHz WAV-file the resulting max amplitude becomes infinite (VERY) large. There is no problem when I convert it in 32 bit floating point. How can that happen and will you please correct that issue? It could potentially damage electronics and loudspeakers...! If you have a file-hotel, I could send you the original 6 channel file.

Always check the result before you play it on your sound system! Regards Brian.

Hello!
I have one problem since I have installed fb2k 2.0 (32-bit), my media library is not being populated with files using other extensions such as s3m, vgm, mid, etc...
I have the extensions installed and up-to-date.
Does anyone know what the problem could be?

EDIT: Apparently setting the "restrict to" option to *.* instead of the original * fixes it.

Not 100% sure, but 2.0 64-bit may not be able to handle components using windows "\" style paths (incorrectly unpacked into {settings dir}/user-components-x64).

This has x64/*.dll and works: https://www.foobar2000.org/getcomponent/7e6c5ce77cd445493206b263f9b9697c/foo_input_vgmstream.fb2k-component

While this has x64\*.dll and doesn't: https://github.com/vgmstream/vgmstream-releases/releases/download/nightly/foo_input_vgmstream.fb2k-component

If I re-compress the later with 7-zip (that creates linux "/" style paths) works fine. Powershell creates win style paths so it's a bit inconvenient foobar can't handle them (since it's the only default win cmd tool that can make zips).

ReFacets bug? -

Double-click action: 'Send to new playlist' + 'Start playback when sending selection to playlist', does not start playback. Then, Middle-click action: 'Add to current playlist', playback starts, and continued middle-clicks start the new track.

(Typically the reverse in previous years, 'Send' actions can start playback while 'Add' actions do not)

Hello,

I have raised an issue  https://github.com/mmtrt/foobar2000/issues/4 regarding change in CUE sheet functionality in foobar2000 V2.0, where foobar2000 v2.0 does not understand CUE sheets, which in v1.16.1 worked just fine.

I'll cross post it the into this 'upstream' site.

Hello,

(Sorry for my bad English)

Today I noticed that my foobar2000 cue sheets did not work in my Ubuntu 22.02 system after snap forced installation to version 2.0. I was able to resume cue sheet functionality by reverting back to v1.16.1 and disabling snap updates for foobar2000.

My use case: I have used cue sheet to index a number FLAC files converted from old recordings in reel tape, C-casette and MD-disks formats. Some of the FLAC file content is not of interest, and I have been able to (ab)use foobar2000 cue sheets to skip irrelevant sections in these FLAC files by assigning non-interesting sections to track 99. In v1.16.1, only last of the number 99 tracks (very short one) was present in the playlist loaded for the cue - effectively dropping non-interesting sections in the FLAC files.

Is it possible to have v2.0 re-implement the functionality, which we had in v1.16.1?

Thank You for this wonderful player - I have been using it I think over 10 years!

Best Regards Jukka

Below is an example for one of my cue sheets

My title formatting code for the Album List in 1.6.16 contained CR/LF's to make it easier to edit them in an external editor. They get imported in 2.0 and converted to two underscore ('_') characters.

Not a biggy but it took me a few moments to determine why underscores appeared and removed them from the 2.0 code.

The graphical glitches in the first image suggest you've got a gdi handle leak. It could be refacets or it could be something else entirely that was to blame. IIRC, there is a per app limit of 10,000 and it could have been interacting with refacets pushed it over the edge.

You can enable a gdi object column in task manager in the details tab or use Process Explorer to check if it happens again.

Hi,
Windows 10, Foobar2.0x64
two bugs:
 1. when switching stream using new swithcer the audio stream changes but the display on bottom bar and in colums remains unchanged. When changed using old method (right click...) everything changes instantly.
2. Sometimes (in fact quite often) when manually closing foobar everything seems ok but can't restart (reopen) it. After PC restart I get something like "foobar closed with error last time - open in safe mode or normally or ignore" It also appies to 32bit version. Never happened in 1.6.16.

I just noticed 2.0 being out of beta today. Congrats! Just wondering if this Playback Statistics issue could be investigated?

Any chance of taking another look at the Playback Statistics issue of tag writes interrupting playback (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,122553.0.html)? IIRC changes were made in the first 2.0 beta so that tag writes didn't apply until track stop or change (perfect), but AFAIK they were rolled back when the component was separated out again. Possibly an oversight?

So the only way to install/update component is manually from the library/components/install. How to fix the association?

I am reporting a bug related to keyboard focus.

1. Copy music files from explorer (Ctrl+C)

2. Paste into foobar2000's playlist window (Ctrl+V)

3. Invoke context menu (Shift+F10) -> The context menu is invoked as if the keyboard focus is on the playlist tab title. In beta versions prior to the 2.0 final version, the context menu was invoked from the playlist.

Right-click on the fb2k-component file, "Open with" select foobar2000, check "Always open this application for fb2k-component", or Find another application on this computer, find foobar2000.exe open in it. Everything must open, the association must be preserved.

No, it does not. That way foobar puts a component in a playlist and says it can't play it (because it is not an audio file). It does not treat it as a component and does not try to install it.

Yes, I know how to install component from the library/componets..... but it used to work by just doubleclicking on a component...not it does not. That is why I reported a bug in FB2.0. I hope it was not deliberately changed because it was easier to just click on sometimes many new components than soing it all the long way.

New Facets UI seems to completey lock up the UI when returning a large amount of search results.  Also seems to happen with the regular media search but not to the same extent as this.  Collection is roughly 1.26tb, 82k tracks.  32bit version.  I recorded a gif, added a visualizer so you can see it lock up:

So the only way to install/update component is manually from the library/components/install. How to fix the association?

The component installation from shell by double click requires special parameters to foobar2000. I suspect people having problems with it have used portable foobar2000 installations and have manually tried to associate .fb2k-component. Doing that writes invalid registry keys that prevent the proper parameters from getting passed to the player. I'll try to make future foobar2000 installer able to fix the registration automatically.

But for now you should be able to fix it manually with Registry Editor (regedit.exe) by deleting the following registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.fb2k-component
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\fb2k-component_auto_file
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.fb2k-component

I have had a deadlock of foobar2000 using ReFacets. I clicked first item of a column. Playlist view was flickering. No bad shutdown menu, no crash report. Adding "running" file and starting foobar2000 in safe mode didn't solve the problem. Had to replace configuration folder with a backup. Can't reproduce the bug anymore.
Further investigation: Seems to be a problem after resizing Album cover column in playlist viewer.

Do you not have standard installation of foobar2000? The installer writes association keys to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and the existing associations should now be used when the incorrect values from current user's keys are gone.
Run the installer and just install the player again. That will recreate the associations.

No - fading is off an volume goes down and not coming back until you switch output device and back (or maybe the next track is playing - I should check)

@Case, you are right - it's VST EasyQ_v10.07 connected with new VST adapter plugin by Peter that seeking causes to get bypassed.

What’s going on with ReFacets "Folder"?

ReFacets "Folder" = $directory(%path%)
doesn’t work anymore like Facets, shows pointless or a mix of folders and albums!  :(
All tests were made with clean installed portable installations (V.2 32bit on Win11).
I restructured, used fewer folders, the result was always a mess.

ReFacets "Genre" works perfect. But this is unusable for me because there are hundreds or maybe thousand of different genres.

I have about 100000 song titles sorted into Albums.  Is that too much for V.2.0? It was from the beginning, has affected all beta versions until V. 2.0.

Post by: marc2k3 on 2023-05-07 18:42:52
The folder columns in original facets never used title formatting. You won't find a preference where you can edit them.

It's just like you can't edit the folder structure view in album list either. A special API for getting the relative path of a track which discards your watched folder(s) from the beginning is used and there is no title formatting equivalent to this. You can probably hack around with $replace and $substr and maybe achieve something similar.

edit: as an example this works for the first folder column where my watched folder is E:\Music

Code: [Select]
$puts(relative_path,$replace(%path%,E:\Music\,))$substr($get(relative_path),0,$sub($strstr($get(relative_path),\),1))

Now you figure out the code for the 2nd column and so on....

Code: [Select]
$puts(relative_path,$replace(%path%,D:\Musikbiliothek\,))$substr($get(relative_path),0,$sub($strstr($get(relative_path),\),1))
But when I go to a folder, only the name of the same folder minus 1 letter appears in the second folder column.
Code: [Select]
$puts(relative_path,$replace(%path%,D:\Musikbiliothek\,))$substr($get(relative_path),0,$sub($strstr($get(relative_path),\),2))
And in the third folder column only the name of the same folder minus 2 letters appears.
Code: [Select]
$puts(relative_path,$replace(%path%,D:\Musikbiliothek\,))$substr($get(relative_path),0,$sub($strstr($get(relative_path),\),3))

What can I do? For a normal user this is a horror code. I only can copy and paste. ;-)
This Facets-Folder-Thing is the only reason why I use Foobar2000 since 15 years  :-((((

I just can't imagine being the only one who sorts by at least 2 or 3 folders.

Post by: marc2k3 on 2023-05-07 21:25:16
Yeah, you'll never figure it out when you don't even understand what the code does. First it has to discard the watched folder path. It then had to look for the first \ in the resulting string and then that has to be discarded by subtracting 1 from its position.

The 2nd pane has to discard the watched folder and the entire folder name displayed in the first pane And then of course you have to find the next slash and discard the text after it. I can hardly blame anyone for not knowing how to do this. It's not easy.

But it does highlight the vast difference between the super-magic folder columns in original facets compared to title formatting. I feel I've made that point.  :))

Post by: Case on 2023-05-09 06:24:40
I wonder if I'm missing something, but you should be able to achieve what you are after quite easily with ReFacets, @Erich_2.

The pre-existing Folder definition "$directory(%path%)" gives just the exact folder name the track is in. To get the name of the folder higher up in the path tree, you can use string "$directory(%path%,2)". And to get the parent folder of that, use "$directory(%path%,3)", and so on. Just define as many folder depths as you need.

As an example if you have the following file:
Code: [Select]
D:\Musikbiliothek\Neue Deutsche Welle\Falco\1985\Falco 3\01. Rock Me Amadeus.flac
$directory(%path%) will return "Falco 3"
$directory(%path%,2) will return "1985"
$directory(%path%,3) will return "Falco"
$directory(%path%,4) will return "Neue Deutsche Welle"
$directory(%path%,5) will return "Musikbiliothek"
$directory(%path%,6) would return "Missing tag" as you are out of folders.

Post by: marc2k3 on 2023-05-09 07:23:30

That could work but walking up the path from right to left does depend on the folder structure being X folders deep for every single track in the library otherwise it's going to break down.

Till beta 26 ReFacets I used Folders with „SpecialFolder“ as a workaround: N= 2,3,4,5,6 or 7
SpecialFolder = $directory(%path%,$sub($len(%path%),$len($replace(%path%,\,,|,,/,)),N))
From Beta 27 on it didn't work anymore.

$directory(%path%) - $directory(%path%,2) - $directory(%path%,x) etc. also brings a confusion.
The only thing what really works, is (only in the first column):
$puts(relative_path,$replace(%path%,D:\Musikbiliothek\,))$substr($get(relative_path),0,$sub($strstr($get(relative_path),\),1))

But like Mick Jagger sings: I can't get no Satisfaction.
There is a Path in "Media Library". Putting this path back into a formula is not acceptable to the user.

Using v. 2.0 (stable) or 2.1 beta (64 bits), interface is temporarily freezing on my side when I update tags, while music is still playing flawlessly. It can last from a few seconds (if I update tags of a single album) to a few minutes (for a bunch of albums using masstager) and everything will be fine again after all operations are completed. Meanwhile CPU usage is somewhere between 20 and 50 %. Same thing happens while new music is being downloaded and automatically scanned for being added in media library. My computer is "a bit" old (see specs below) and music library quite big.

This didn't happen with previous versions. I don't know anything about computing, but I guess this has something to do with foobar now being unable to forget new tag updates after crash (which is nice) and that this is not a bug but a consequence of choices made. Hence I'd like to know if there were ways to shorten this temporary freeze for old computers ran by old people like me... Any help appreciated!

Of course I use some components, mostly JScript Panel samples, but I guess they affect RAM more than CPU, and problems were similar without them installed.

Here's my configuration:

CPU   Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz   3.60 GHz
RAM   16,0 Go
Foobar on SDD
Music library (over 18,000 albums; 8 TB data) on 3 different supposedly healthy HDD

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, but the music folder path (with V2.0 in portable mode) becomes corrupt if you move the FB2K folder to another directory. It will say "The system cannot find the path specified." 

My music folder is in D:\Music but it actually added another folder to the path when I moved FB2K. So the path became D:\Darkone\Music.

Post by: Majestyk on 2023-05-17 00:05:46
Ok, it turns out the problem might be my end and I can't figure out why. Something is corrupting the path of one of my portable themes, whenever I move the FB2K portable folder to another directory. Even if I copy it and paste it in the same dir, it becomes corrupt.  But it doesn't do this on the older Foobar (V1.6.16). Only V2.

So all my themes are fine on both 32Bit versions of FB2K when moving them  But one theme does not on V2.0, only.

I don't know how I'm going to begin trouble shooting this.

Update: Ok, so I made a fresh portable install of V2 32 bit and copied the profile files of my 'tainted' theme to the new install. (I did not copy files like playlists-v2.0). And now it works fine when moving around.  I'm still going to play around with the 'tainted' version and see why it's doing that.

Update 2: I spoke to soon. It's doing it again.

One more update. The "bug" seems to happen randomly. When it happens , the path shows up as "...\...\Music Files". When it doesn't, the path shows up as "D:\Music Files". I don't think it has anything to do with my theme (IE: components).

Using v. 2.0 (stable) or 2.1 beta (64 bits), interface is temporarily freezing on my side when I update tags, while music is still playing flawlessly. It can last from a few seconds (if I update tags of a single album) to a few minutes (for a bunch of albums using masstager) and everything will be fine again after all operations are completed. Meanwhile CPU usage is somewhere between 20 and 50 %. Same thing happens while new music is being downloaded and automatically scanned for being added in media library. My computer is "a bit" old (see specs below) and music library quite big.

This didn't happen with previous versions. I don't know anything about computing, but I guess this has something to do with foobar now being unable to forget new tag updates after crash (which is nice) and that this is not a bug but a consequence of choices made. Hence I'd like to know if there were ways to shorten this temporary freeze for old computers ran by old people like me... Any help appreciated!

Of course I use some components, mostly JScript Panel samples, but I guess they affect RAM more than CPU, and problems were similar without them installed.

Here's my configuration:

CPU   Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790 CPU @ 3.60GHz   3.60 GHz
RAM   16,0 Go
Foobar on SDD
Music library (over 18,000 albums; 8 TB data) on 3 different supposedly healthy HDD
Windows 10

Coming back on this... It seems that foobar is rebuilding the entire library each time I make any change on the metadatas or doing anything else that could affect the library (adding an album for instance). It is pretty annoying since heavy changes can freeze the program for tenth of minutes. Tasks manager tells me that foobar uses up to 40 % of CPU ressources (usually 25-30 % and less than 1 % in normal use). I tried everything I could with Windows, such as giving foobar "real time access" with no results. I'm a bit desperate about this...

Did a perfectly clean portable install of v. 2.1. Library scan has been quite fast (maybe 20-30 minutes) but problem remains the same: foobar freezes after editing tags, adding albums, etc...

I also notice that RAM use is quite high... 1200 to 2300 MB but that might be because I use Smooth Browser.

FB2K 2.0 is missing the option to specify push or event for exclusive mode. Push was useful for use with older asynchronous DAC processors.

Overall, my view of 2.0 is that it lacks polish and has a unattractive GUI. It looks like a step backwards for Foobar development. Not sure what the goal of 2.0 or what purpose the project's existence serves. I hope version 1.0 continues to see updates. 2.0 should be shelved for now.

There is a feature (Default UI, Playlist View) from 1.X that's gone missing as far as I can tell.

In 1.6.16 and earlier, if I drag a playlist selection to the column header bar (as in the attached screenshot), it will remove the selected tracks from their position in the playlist and drop them at the end of the playlist.  I'd very much like to see this functionality return, it is super useful in curating playlists - e.g., after having just listened to an album and deciding you want to keep it "on rotation."

Was there any change with how foobar deals with relative file paths in the fpl files with v2.0?  I always keep my foobar2000.exe in the root directory of my music folder, this way I could just sync my music with OneDrive between computers.  Once I upgraded to v2.0, when I try to add the .\ path to the monitoring folders it always just fills in an absolute path.

I have Windows 7 (64-bit).

I upgraded Foobar to 2.1 (64-bit) from 1.16.

Foobar cannot load now George Yohng's VST Wrapper (http://www.yohng.com/software/foobarvst.html).
The error message says: "Failed to load DLL: foo_dsp_vstwrap.dll.  Reason: Not a valid Win32 application."

What should I do? How to make this VST wrapper compatible with the newest version of Foobar? I need this plugin very much as I used it to connect to a VST host program in which I used lots of VST plugins.

Thank you for any advice.

PS: I wish Foobar had a way to connect to VST plugins as one of its standard features to harness the power of a multitude of VST plugins that are out there...

Title: Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs
Post by: Gus. on 2023-05-30 04:01:33
That VST Wrapper is 32-bit, try it on a 32-bit version of foobar2000.
Also try this component: https://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_dsp_vst3
Allows VST effects to be used as DSPs in foobar2000. Supported processor architectures: x86 32-bit, x86 64-bit.

Get the new VST host plugin linked to by Gus, it blows the old Yohng one out of the water.  Written by Peter, can host 32 or 64-bit VST2/3 plugins independent of the player architecture, etc.  Basically uncrashable.

i don't know if this is a bug or intentional but updating to 2.0 64 bit stable appears to leave the old 1.6.x version folders/shortcuts/etc. intact though you can no longer uninstall it from windows' app list. is it safe to delete the old folders or best to just leave them alone? i guess future releases will clear them eventually?

The 64-bit foobar2000 installer intentionally doesn't touch the 32-bit installation. Though shortcut icons obviously get overwritten by the latest installation.

It would be best to uninstall the 32-bit version before installing the 64-bit player. But you can still do it later. Unfortunately I learned too late that the modern side "Apps and Features" doesn't list both bitness variants, but the "Programs and Features" option in Control Panel can do it just fine.
Alternatively you can enter the old directory under Program Files and manually launch the uninstall.exe from there.
Do not just delete the directory, otherwise the registry will be left with unwanted and invalid entries.

ah, that's why. i forgot the original control panel shows a more complete list. I can confirm this works, 1.6 is removed and the 64-bit 2.0 version is unaffected. I also realized the separate installs would help some people with 32-bit only plugins, not realizing the 64-bit version don't work with them, and can promptly revert versions. I installed the 64-bit version even while the old version was still installed because it was recommended to do so by the official wiki and the change log implied it didn't really matter. and also it would save time by being able to import settings, keyboard shortcuts and playlists. just glad i don't have to wrangle regedit and figure out how to clean things there again

thanks a lot

hmm.. I use a portable style install for easier backups...
if Peter can get the few Kode54 components I use up to speed for 64bit I will upgrade to it.
he did so for foo_gep renaming it to

I intend to install right over the 32bit version if possible,
to keep all my playlists and components intact but for components I will have to do that reinstall and hope it takes the 64bit versions this time...

I installed 2.0 (Windows 10) over the previous version. Unlike prior updates, 2.0 did not install over the older version. Instead, I ended up with two separate installations of foobar2000, and 2.0 didn't retain preferences and settings from the prior version, including the ASIO driver and SACD settings.   How about warning users in advance when an update is going to cause this situation?

You don't consider a zero-width space character an illegal character in tags? (You cannot even see it's there).
Same as Character Right-To-Left Override and Character Left-To-Right Override.

IMO it should be stripped on the lowest level (foobar itself), so it does not have to be done in all (third party) plugins and your own code.

From what I've been able to test, the problem is not related to foo_discogger.
It happens even with a clean foobar2000.
I've written down my tests below to make it more clear.

1. Run a completely clean foobar2000 (%APPDATA%foobar2000-v2 folder doesn't exist)
2. Close foobar2000 (%APPDATA%foobar2000-v2 folder created)

3. Unpack and copy the attached library-v2.0.7z file to %APPDATA%foobar2000-v2 folder
https://www.mediafire.com/file/s8aewprg8xjn4h4/library-v2.0.7z/file

4. Once again, run foobar2000
5. Library - Album List, Right-click on "All Music" and click "Create Autoplaylist"

Up to this point, everything is fine.

6. Playback - Order - Shuffle (albums) or Shuffle (folders)

View - Console, The "database is locked" message is repeating.
Code: [Select]
could not compile SQL:
SELECT info, infoBrowse, size, lastModified, infoBrowseTime, created, attribs, attribsValid FROM metadb WHERE name = ?

bump

The bug is still there.
I reduced about 100,000 songs from the media library.
I also cleaned up a lot of tags in the files (deleted lyrics, cue data, etc.)
I deleted the existing files. Below are the newly created metadb and playlist files.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/bzqd2osxm3p4xcb/foobar2000-v2.7z/file

There seems to be something that the foobar2000 v2 DB can't handle and is causing errors.
file name too long?
some unicode it can't handle?
I have my suspicions, but there's nothing more I can do in the real world.

How did you reach that conclusion? The actions work exactly as they should here both in foobar2000 v2.0 and in the latest 2.1 preview. Both in 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

@josemescud - Have you perhaps edited the "Volume step (dB)" setting found under Preferences -> Advanced -> Playback? It currently doesn't prevent you from entering negative values. If you enter a negative value there that will reverse the adjustment direction.

Thank you very much for your help.

You were right. The Volume Step value I don't think I ever modified it. The current value was -5. I changed it = 2 and the keyboard shortcuts for volume up and volume down work perfectly.

I don't know if it's intended, in 1.6.x I can ctrl-f (on playlist) -> type thing -> press enter to play the first hit but I can't do that anymore in beta 10.
just want to report that this is still the case in 2.0 🥲
at least I can work it around by closing the find window first (by pressing esc) and then press enter.

Dear Community, I like to report that iPod manager 0.7.2 does not work properly with foobar v. 2.0. The device is recognized but "send playlist" leads to "foobar2000 afcfileref open" error which states that the divice is locked. Uninstall foobar v.2 and restinstall v.1.6.16 fixed the problem.

Sorry if this was posted....

Library not showing DFF or DSF (DSD) files.  In WIndows, I set the file type to be foobar and foobar icon shows in windows explorer.   Win 11 all updates.  Had to move back to 1.6.17...  Both 2.0 and beta has issue.

Otherwise, a great build... thanx... I love the hide devices... I switch devices all the time... just great.

I did, nothing...

Yea, I saw that on some other forum... didn't work.   Of course I could have done something wrong but I don't think so... are you sure that will work?  If you are sure, I will re-load 2.0 and try it again... but I am 99% sure I did.

I just ensured that another PC I have in my home has Foobar 2.0 and has the foo_input_sacd compoent installed.... no go... not picking it up in the library.   So that is two machines, one with Win 10 and other 11 that wont see DSF or DFF files.  Again, I these file types assigned in windows to foobar.

I just re-read your post....  The issue isn't playing these files, it is just that Foobar doesn't recognize their existence.  I don't want them converted or "played", just passed through to my DAC bit-for-bit.   The bug in Foobar is a library issue.

@Air Ken

I guess my wired setup might be the reason but it worked for several years. I use an ipod touch 2G and I love the playlist features which help me to teach my sport lessons. I know that sounds strange but I do not like the idea of streaming. I own the music and I can use it when I want to use it. Anyway

when I connect my ipod touch 2G it will be recognized by win11 under usb-devices (apple mobile device usb composite device). In this state I cannot use the ipod manager 0.7.2 because the device can not be found. It is every time the same procedure. Now I need to uninstall the apple mobile device usb composite device driver and also set unistall driver. After that I need to rediscover all changed devices. Now the ipod touch 2G is recognized as USB-Controller device (apple mobile device usb driver ver 6.0.9999.67 from 18.05.2015). In this state ipod manger 0.7.2. finds my ipod touch 2G and can be synced. I know it sounds rediclious but this worked for me several years since the 2.0 update appeared. What I am looking for is a configuration without the whole itunes package, just the drivers to get foobar running. I spended so my hours in the past to get it running and I really fear the effort again to set it up working. May you or others had the same issue and can provide a setup that is foolproof.

Many thanks.

I own two iPod touch 7th 32GB.
iPod touch is not supported.
I was thinking how much I wish I could use it.
Currently, it is connected to foobar2000 v2.0 32bit as foobar2000 mobile iOS.
Or as a device controller...

I didn't know there was such a trick.
But this can't be helped.
This is not a bug in foobar2000 v2.0.
We can use any supported iPod, so it's not a bug.

Did you perhaps add your DSD collection path to media library before you installed foo_input_sacd component? It seems foobar2000 v2.x remembers all the files it sees when library is initialized and it will keep ignoring all old files it didn't recognize during initial scan even if you later add components that can handle them.
You should be able to work aroud this issue by removing the media library path from Media Library configuration, restart foobar2000, then add the path back.

@Air Ken

In my humble opinion there has to be any connection with the new version. I reinstalled foobar2000_v2.0 (32bit) in a different directory and ran it. The ipod touch 2g is support (https://wiki.yuo.be/dop:start at least for my software version) and was recognized. I used File->iPod->manage contents, where a window appeard, curiously since some update in the past "genius playlists" appeard several time on my device, but I don't want to complain about it, if the whole device still syncs. Now I tried to remove some old playlist and all of these genius playlists. Finally I hit "save and close" and following error appeard

I/O Error: AFCFileRefOpen returned: 2 Path was: /com.apple.itunes.lock_sync

So I closed foobar2.0 and reopened directly the old version 1.6.16 and did the same steps above, but this time it worked. So in my humble opinion something is not right aligned between these two versions. Does anybody has any ideas about it?

Many thanks.

I did this... no go.   BTW, if one should need to do this, then what happens when you copy new DFF files to the music directory?  Delete and restart again?  No, 1.x versions worked fine... no hoops to jump through.  Foobar has always been great... i have just one directory (and only one path in foobar) on a NAS called Music.  Under that is a folder for each band or artist, under that a folder for each album, and under that, the tunes.   Always worked really well and pretty fast too.  When I buy new files, I just copy, via Windows, to the music folder.   If Foobar is running, it finds it almost immediately... if not running, it will maybe 5 - 10 minutes after firing it up (I have a huge library).  It just worked.  Been using it for what... now over 20 years or so???  I dunno for ever...

That initial scan issue is the absolutely only problem I can trigger. And it is a bug. But even if you suffered from that problem any new added files would be visible just like with the old foobar.
Note that this issue is super easy to avoid for you: once you install foobar2000 v2.x, install foo_input_sacd first. After it is installed, configure media library paths.

Are you certain you restarted foobar2000 after you removed the configured media library paths? Without this step the previously ignored entries will not be cleared.
Perhaps I should suggest you to remove the "library-v2.0" directory under the foobar's profile path. That will achieve the same plus it will reset the exclude filter to default.

PS: this thread is scarily titled foobar2000 v2.0 bugs. Everyone should be using the v2.1 previews as that is where all the recent developments and fixes have happened. The 2.0 "stable" is half a year behind on fixes.

Ok, here is what I am about to do....

I am going to download and run 2.1 (have 2.0 on my test machine).  Then I will ensure foo_input_sacd is active... it should as it is already there.   Then I will delete the path to my music folder.   Then I will shut down foobar... reopen.. then initialize the path to the folder and I will report what happens.

Update:   OK.... did the deeds.... now waiting for library to build.....

Update: WOOOHOO!!! it worked.  Thanx so much.  Yep a bug, but now I am back in business.

Yes the latest 2.1 preview is actually more stable than the 2.0 "stable" release. I think Peter has specific issues in his backlog that he wants to fix before releasing 2.1

Post by: LeVvE on 2023-12-21 10:01:54
One thing I noticed with 2.0 is that the album list doesn't swap between light/dark font when text is highlighted based on how dark your background color is?

This is how it used to look: https://i.imgur.com/vTFDDkc.png
This is how it looks now: https://i.imgur.com/wElxea4.png

If I make the background any darker it's really hard to read the text in the album list because it's black instead of white, also when anything is clicked in the playlist the highlight color is removed and turns black so it's black on black and I can't read it at all.
Just installed the new 2.1 release, I really like the new radio interface stuff. Internet Radio looks the same as the playlist with correct? highlight and text color.

Internet radio white text on blue selection: https://i.imgur.com/ium2Oh8.png

Album list still shows weird colors with dark selection/highlight color and black instead of white text, the "box" around the text also has rounded edges compared to everywhere else: https://i.imgur.com/ePKIKZf.png

Thanks.

Album list being borked has been reported many times but nothing has been done (yet). :P

It seems like it's because windows theming APIs are being used but they should not be when custom colours are active.

Semi off topic, but can someone tell me the color codes for the default dark theme in 2.1? I'd like to use them in 1.6.17 as well, but selecting Dark Mode doesn't display the individual colors anywhere.

i run win10 in dark mode on uhd screen scaled 125%. the visibility of everything is worse readable (for me) in v.2 vs. v.1.6.
is there an option to scale up and colour the fonts, also for submenus and preferences? also it would be nice to be able to resize the preferences window when working with advanced options.
one year later the gui scales + views ok, but preferences window still shows in 100% only. running v.2.1.2. unusable for bad eyeview.
