Hi, i think there's a graphic (fonts) bug with the memory when handling quite a lot of files (like 4000 items and more approx) in a playlist after some long period of passed time like a couple of days or so.
It's a visual thing, the fonts change from some selected to the "system font" like the old times in PC with programs with very limited RAM and speeds...

I'm on windows 10 22h2.

Here in the pic of the glitch

I tried what you said with v2 x86_32bit and it works fine as far as I could try..
so it would be a x86_64bit issue.

I'll wait for someone to confirm or totally decline this - if my case is local - I will try and reinstall the player again from scratch (this one is updated from beta versions).
Also forgot to mention - Windows 11 64-bit.

Switching between outputs restores the volume until seekbar is touched.

In Preferences/Playback/Output, under "Fading" is there anything enabled for "Seek"?  If so, zero it out, or uncheck the "Enable" box altogether.

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)

@watcherhd - this is random but you don't happen to use some loudness-enhancing VSTs? In other threads people have complained that seeking causes VST to get bypassed.

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

Too bad - on 1.6.16 with very old VST 2.4 adapter - © 2011 Yegor Petrov it doesn't happen.

But at least we know that it's not new Foobar's poblem.

Unfortunately I had to return to v1.6.16 as v2.0 never loaded my whole music library, even after several attempts to rescan, the status of my drive F remained “Reading tags…”, actually I haven’t noticed this status in the previous versions of foobar2000, this might be a culprit.

@grimes - it was VST - but not in device list - just in general DSP chain :)

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.

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....

Thanks, Ok, I did it for the first folder column where my watched folder is D:\Musikbibliothek.
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.

Re: foobar2000 v2.0 bugs

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.  :))

Having my own issues with foobar... some plugins won't work with the 64bit v2.0 like WSH panel mod, I have included an image of my layout. i use DUI and would really appreciate this kind of simpler look and feel. Don't really need anything more advanced than this. I am also attaching the list of plugins I use. Thanks. I have attempted to use 2.0 32 bit as well and get some odd behavior with the items listed in my library. Others have noted this as well. Thanks.

My sacd 5.1 map only became visible when I put it in a extra folder.
Ie; f:\sacd\sacd 5.1

Thanks for the explanation, too bad.., back to Facets...
But why is there in ReFacets: Folder=$directory(%path%)?

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.

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.

This works for me: $directory(%path%,$sub($sub($len(%path%),$len($replace(%path%,\,))),N)).

Have you perhaps changed foobar2000 to be run under compatibility mode of some older OS version?
