foo_touchremote - Remote control for iPhone/iPod Touch, [Not my release] Options

[Littlesloth]

Foo_Touchremote 0.2.5 + foobar 1.1.2 + Windows7 starter/Netbook

a) Foobar consumes a LOT of memory, although I thought foobar 1.1.2 has improvement for that?!?
Foobar after start, approx 200MB, after connecting with Remote 2.1 (from Ipod) memory goes up to 500MB
after loading playlist (10000 songs) memory climbs to 900MB OK, foobar database is approx. 100MB, but that is far too big and too slow (takes a minute to display)

Any idea if another plugin might cause that?

b) Remote gets often disconnected (timeout because of a) ?)

Overall impression ist that everything gets realy slow... selecting a song takes 10s to play...

Any idea?

0.2.6 is out. Try it to see if it fixes your issues. foobar is sitting at around 60mb of memory for me with 0.2.6. The component seems to be working great.

[metal_termite]

Littlesloth,

Same behavior happens to me. With each track change the memory usage increments between 10MB-40MB.

[Littlesloth]

Update, still consumes memory with foo_touchremote 0.2.6

(First of all Thank you for the good work

What other plugins are you guys using? Even after loading a playlist with ~3000 songs, I don't see the memory go above 65k. foobar at start uses about 20k for me. The only plugins I have are foo_audioscrobbler and foo_dop in addition to this one. Perhaps some other component is causing your issues?

[metal_termite]

Fangs404: I removed all the non core plugins and the component was still a memory hog when the Remote app was activated. It works fine on a fresh install of foobar2000, but I'm not going re-customize all of foobar2000 and the third party components just for this. All .NET versions are up-to-date.

Update2, still consumes memory with foo_touchremote 0.2.6 + I removed ALL additional components


a) Foobar consumes a LOT of memory
Foobar after start 100MB,
after plugin Foo_touchremote installed approx 200MB,
after connecting with Remote 2.1 (from Ipod) memory goes up to 300MB
after loading playlist (10000 songs) memory climbs to 400...700MB
OK, foobar database is approx. 100MB, but that is far too big and too slow (takes a 15sec to switch a song)

Any idea if another plugin might cause that?

Do you know a forum to contact the developer of the component?

Config:
Foo_Touchremote 0.2.6 + foobar 1.1.2 + Windows7 starter/Netbook, .net 4, .net 3.5 Sp1, Bonjour 2.02

[Fangs404]

Has anyone messed with the "enable network traffic compression" option in the newest version? I guess it just gzips the HTTP traffic? I don't really see the point since you can only use this over a LAN, but I'm curious why he included this.

Just a small bump to say that it's worth trying 0.2.7.2 to see if it fixes your issue. The fact that your foobar database is 100mb is really concerning, and that's probably why you're experiencing massive memory usage. I have ~15k songs (about 100gb of music), and my database is 4.6mb. Unless you have 326000 songs, something's gotta be filling up your database with random crap.

[Jaekus]

Can someone please tell me how I can make this work?

I've paired my iPhone in iTunes Apple Remote.
I've downloaded and extracted the .dll files and put them into the components folder.
...and now I do not know what to do?

[Subjugater]

Hi,
I've got a problem with the plug-in.
First: My iOS device is an iPod Touch 4G. The Remote app is installed. The foobar2000 version is the newest stable, 1.1.7 as well as the foo_touch plug-in (0.2.7.2). On my PC the COMODO Free Firewall is installed. I also tried the MonkeyMate iPod app. The firewall blocked the connection, but I created a secure exception, so it works now. As a result of this experience I've done a similar exception for foo_touch, and the protocol says that the firewall allowed the connection. I'm sure, this is not the problem. If I turn the firewall off, the problem is the same.
The problem is: I can not connect. If I start the DACP server and the remote app as described, the server does nothing. The green bar runs through the window nothing else. I've no idea what's the matter. But there is one interesting aspect. The firewall protocol says that the remote app tries to reach Port 9, whereas the plug-in runs on Port 7000.
Can anybody help? It would be nice if I could try the plug-in!

[leland]

I use my HTPC headless a lot (or like to), and love using this plugin with Remote and my iPad 2.

Unfortunately I seem to get a foobar crash regularly after 10 tracks and can't seem to track it down. Any tips on where to start? I've uninstalled a lot of other crud, but still have issues.

[somy]

Hi,

Thank you for the wonderful plugin! It works almost perfect for me.
The only problem I have is when pause a song, WASAPI outputs repeating sound which is very annoying. I know the bug has nothing to do with Foo_touchremote, but is there a way to configure Foo_touchremote to STOP instead of PAUSE?

Thank you very much in advance!!!

[distill]

Has anyone tried foo_touchremote in a home network with multiple computers having their own Foobar2000 installations? I'm fine with only one computer paired with my iPad, but as soon as I try to pair other computers, it apparently thinks it's the same installation and conflicts with no connection error. By the way, multiple works fine if Foobar2000 + iTunes on another computer (but not Foobar2000 + Foobar2000). How can I fix this? (I have made unique names for each computer and the pairing code is different for each computer.)

[distill]

Answering to myself on the previous message: The fix is simple, just change the Service name from <unset> to a unique service name (TouchRemote DACP server options). That fixes the conflict problem.

Hello,
Here on XP SP3 & .NET 4.0, I've tried all possible versions of foo_touchremote, and the only one which is "working" (which means, foobar is starting properly, without crashing nor displaying error), is the very old one v0.1.2.1 aka "special XP fix". Even the 0.1.2.1 v2 is not working.
The current version 0.2.8 is not working, displaying error "Failed to load DLL: foo_touchremote.dll Reason: This component is missing a required dependency, or was made for different version of foobar2000."

Is there any plan to support windows XP in the near future, or should I search for an alternative software ?

thanks, cheers

[sonvolt]

Have you installed Bonjour ? if you don't have Itunes on your system?

[guix314]

Problem solved, thanks to the developer himself :
So with latest version 0.2.8, which requires .NET 4.0, another requirement on XP is to have VC++ redistributable libraries, could be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5555

Now it's working perfectly.

hello,

can't get this plugin working. installed net4 and net3.5. Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64).

crash report says:

Recent events:

Error: foobar will now crash
mscorlib.resources.dll not found

anyone a clue on that?

[muenstereifel]

solved by using the "install..."-option in foobar, not copying components by hand.

works great!

Still don't work

[swiharta]

Is this known to work with the iPhone 4S / iOS5 / iTunes 10.5? I get this error when trying to pair the iPhone (I do have VC++10 and .NET 4.0 installed):
