foobar2000 rc15 foo_mod error?

I'm not sure how long this bug has existed, but since I seem to be one of the few that still listens to the occasional tracker song, I've found it.  On both of my machines, space.mod (Space Debris) runs without end.  The seekbar finds the length of the song fine, but once it reaches the end of the song, the song repeats, and keeps going; the seekbar sits at the end - not moving - since it can't display any increments anymore.  You would think the latest BASS.dll would fix this, but seeing as foobar already installs this, it doesn't make much sense why the error persists.

I had this happen to me, but surprisingly enough it stopped when I found and unchecked the "looping" property of the foo_mod input property dialog.

...not to assume you're as silly as I am.

It's my fault that it's enabled by default. Yes. Sometimes, I like to listen to the same song on loop, sometimes for hours.


Hmm, strangely, that reminds me that I was going to implement a default length option in foo_spc. I'll repost when I make it happen.

Stripe, you were absolutely right, and even though I've probably looked at the options pages a hundred times, I managed to glaze over the fact that looping was enabled.

Also, kode54, you're right in that it's enabled by default.  As much as it's nice to listen to the same mod forever, it does get tiresome.  Thanks for looking into fixing it.

I think too that the looping option should be unchecked by default in foo_mod with fresh install of foobar2000.
It's a playlist based player so I think it's the most logical behavior.
New users won't be confused by this option anymore and users that know enough about modules and how to configure this player can easily change it

kode54, thanks for fixing the bug but...

Although in the options page for the Module Decoder it has the flag disabled by default on install, the operation of the flag is now opposite of what is expected.  When the flag is off, module files loop.  When the flag is on, they don't.  Perhaps version 0.86.1 is in order?

Way ahead of you.
