Which ID3? foobar only supports ID3v1. It doesn't support ID3v2.

ID3v1

I`ve nuked them and rewrote it. No change.

Kind of minor bug introduced sometime between betas 21 and 30 (didn't happen to grab any builds in between; sorry) and still occurring with beta 32 -

When foobar opens a file that is shorter than the length of the output buffer, it stops playback well before the end. I've reproduced this with some short clips I downloaded, the Windows system sound files, and with a really short module file I had lying around. In the case of the module file, which is 7.992 seconds long, almost a second gets played back before it gets cut off, although the status in the corner never gets passed "Opening..." and the Status Display in the Preferences menu only shows 0's for all values.

I'm using an SBLive! and WinMe (yes, I know) and it happens using both waveOut and DirectSound.

use ape2

Fixed for next beta, thanks.

Sounds more like another person needs to be educated to use "reload info" command.

Odd crash under XP SP1, nForce audio, foobar b31.

I went to ABX a Quicktime MP4 file against an AIFF file, replaygained both and noticed that the AIFF file didn't gain. I shrugged and tried to hit ABX without really thinking. Foobar crashed and gave me this:



Happens everytime with those two files. They're here if you want them:

The AIFF won't play in foobar, however it works fine in winamp. I used the disk writer to decode it and then loaded the resulting wav file with foobar's ABX tool just fine.

Thanks

Edit: DON'T EAT MY CODE YOU HORRID FORUM BUG


<edit by="zZzZzZz" reason="removed flooding xml">

Seems like some forum software developers have been smoking too much crack.
See if you can extract raw crash address from this mess, and the dll it crashed in (and hex code bytes it crashed at, to make the work faster for me).
[edit] erm, AIFF isn't supported.

Crap I can't get that bug to go away, but its close to correct now. The first nine lines of that log are duplicated, but its still readable, which is better then the last few edits so I'm leaving it.

Hrrm, sounds like a simple crash when trying to run ABX on unsupported file format. No need to do further research then.
(I edited the XML flood out)

Beta35 up.

NICE! :-) Working transport buttons(black), rearangable toolbars, and more.... gotta love it - thank you!

Case: since you're including a DSP in your version of the installer to ADD silence between tracks, wouldn't it make sense to also include the gap killer in your custom installer? I mean, it's okay to me to download it seperatly - just a thought.

EDIT: okay, not so fast..... noticed the following bug with the toolbars.

Steps to reproduce:
1.move the "buttons"-toolbar to the top
2."seekbar"-toolbar one row below.
3.deactivate all other toolbars, including "order"
4.close foobar
5.open foobar again

the "order" toolbar and the "button" toolbar should now both be at the same position and cause ugly distortions since they occupy the same space. activating the "order" toolbar again gets rid of the bug.

Is there a way to bring back the buttons and the slider of the new interface, once i have chosen to hide them all?

Slight bug with the configurable toolbar in Beta 35:
I've configured it (from left to right) to only show buttons and the seekbar. After restarting foobar2000 the order component (though disabled) gets drawn behind the buttons. When hovering the mouse over the buttons the order component pops into foreground.

Thanks for foobar2000, and I like the improved UI a lot.

Lodgikal

get this - http://foobar2000.org/foo_ui_std.dll - should fix weird issues with disabled parts reappearing after restart.

Man, you're lightning fast!
Thanks a lot, that fixed it.

"order" dropdown-menu doesn't work on my machine - using the updated UI you posted. It does show the correct value when choosing i.e. "repeat" from the menu's but the dropdown-menu from the toolbar appears empty - or am i too stupid and doing something wrong?

yes, a small empty space stays. select it and you will get them back.

a little glitch stays: if you hide all toolbars and then get buttons and vis back (vis has to be next to buttons and in the same line) a little glitch appears on the stop button. does not happen when toolbars are locked

Like the new GUI. I don't seem tho be able to drag the toolbars to the bottom of the Foobar window. Would be quite nice if that was possible.

Another thing is that it seems to be possible (all FB versions) to drag most of the Foobar components windows (ie., masstagger, show file info, etc) below the windows Taskbar (XP). Wich kind of makes them dissapear of the screen completely. That is especially a nuisance if you drag windows quickly to the bottom of the screen.

Would be convenient if they simply treat the taskbar as screen border like most windows.

New GUI is very good.It is usuful.

But, if the color of the window is set black, the buttons cannot be seen.
There seems to be many people who set the color dark.
If possible, please add some option to change the color of the buttons.

By the way, It would be nice if it's able to hide taskbar button, I think.
I always run fb2k and do some work, so I don't like to be occupied taskber by fb2k.
I would like fb2k to be in only system tray.

And last, I would like to set only the buttons and the seek bar of the new GUI to be shown.
Becaouse I don't chage the settings often, so the menu is not so needed.
But, if standard menu is hidden, I can't change settings when need.
If I click the icon in the left of window title and the standard menu appear on the list, I think it is very useful.
But, this is my very very personal wish, so it not so important.

Thanks

i have the order bar disabled

when disabled everything of the new menu stuff it looks strange too. looks like there are 3-4 frames

This has been possible since the old user interface - Preferences/Display/Default User Interface/System tray/Minimize to system tray checkmark .

If i dont understand you wrong, this can already be done - at least for the time fb being minimized - if the window is open, its still in the taskbar right now.


implemented already


sorry, but - i don't understand you? seems to me that you first state that you don't need to change settings, and in the next sentence you say its annoying that you CAN'T change settings? *looks puzzled*

However - it would be nice to hide the menu's and still being able to access the prefs..... maybe an additional command in the context-menu would be the solution?

- Lyx

i can confirm it.

As you say, fb2k is in system tray when it is minimized.
But I want fb2k to be in system tray even when it is on the desktop.
In shrot, I want fb2k to be system tray always.



Yes. I set so.



What I wanted to say is following,
I don't use the menu normally, so the menu is not needed.
but, when I have to change some settings - this is rare instances - , It is bother to
show menu.

I'm sorry for my bad English and using this thread for feature requests.

Pardon me, but where would the empty space be?
I can't seem to bring back the toolbars anymore.

Is there a way (besides deleting the cfg file)?

Would it be possible to add an option in Preferences to toggle the toolbars on or off?

Sounds to me that a simple shortcut key would solve your problem.
Preferences->Core->Keyboard Shortcuts
Personally I have assigned preferences to the letter p

Me too, with standard UI or update

I got rid off all the toolbars (by accident), i dont have that.

A button to reset toolbars in prefs (or menu) would do.

musicmusic> I too don't have this little thin bar to right-click on to re-enable the toolbars...

I asked Peter about this and showed him a screenshot... It seems that it's Microsoft Windows XP Theme's fault

Just try to use the "Classic Windows Theme" (old windows theme) in the theme selection and load foobar... the bar will be there...

i dont think Im going to do that... Could the right click menu be put into the foobar2000 menu also, probably a better idea than the reset toolbars one.

Oh i see what you mean, switch themes, get toolbar back, switch back.. thats ok then.

I hope too there'll be a new place to "right click" or an option in the preferences to enable/disable toolbars...

"switch themes, get toolbar back, switch back" works... but I too find it quite boring just to activate a single toolbar...

I just wanted them back for now, though, I cant see myself getting rid off them by accident again..

Beta36 uploaded along with new SDK, component compatibility wasn't broken though.

I like the new UI, but some minor improvements would be nice.
There is really no need for the "Order" drop down list to be resizable, as it's more than big enough at its minimum size. I would also appreciate a maximum size for the seekbar, as it gets too big at times. The only workaround is to place it between two other components.

i think it is no need to set the "order" on the bar

i agree with u , i also think that it need't the "order" .

BTW , i am a student in China . foobar2000 is the best player , hope that it can be better ......

waiting ......

So right click and remove it.

Yup it worked .
I would never have guessed that it was a problem with using fanciful themes.
Thanks Ghim (and Peter for telling him).
Would there be a workaround for this, besides changing theme modes?

There seems to be a sever bug in fb2k beta 36, the processor utilization is very high about 16% for mp3 @ 128 on my celeron 266. Well the bug is there in beta 32 also but the processor usge is 8% for the same file. On a comparison to the fb2k 0.667 version it is only 4%. Is this severe or what?

Beta37 uploaded.

Yes, I can use shortcut key. But it is also little bother to move my fingars to key board.
Anyway, this ploblem can be solved by alternative solution. So my wish to add a new function is not so important. This wish is only " if possible "


I think, this bar bother men who not use the new GUI. It would be nice if wheter show GUI or not can be selected in Preferences.

btw, I think the seek bar and the buttons are too big compared with the font on the menu or playlist. So new GUI seems to stick out in the window. Personally, I like the size of seekbar of "jump to time".

In the new Toolbar Menu one has to click every menu item individually to make the menu drop down. If one wants the next menu category one has to deactivate the current and reactivate the next one.

In the normal Menu one only has to click one menu item to activate the menu and the rest will react on mouse over. Would be nice if this was also possible for the Toolbar Menu.

EDIT:

Also get strange glitches occasionally when moving or sizing toolbars around.

ie.:multiple seekbars (strangely displayed), multiple vis windows, seekbar slider inside vis window, etc.

Usually solves itself though after a few seconds, though not always.

When I call up Foobar from beeing minimized to system tray it shows the "order" window in the GUI completely black until I mouse over it for the first time.

Strangely this does not happen when it's minimized to the task bar.

Beta 37 (Win XP)

About tollbar visualisation:

It display the spectrum LINEARLY according to the frequency.

If it were made by OCTAVES displayed spectrum would be much more "natural" and pleasant to see.

Bug: Internet shortcuts dragged from Mozilla are accepted, but improperly parsed.

EDIT:

Here's log for <a href="http://www.dziwnonoc.pr.pl/snd/bk-dominejesu.mp3">Domine Jesu</a> link. First one is dragged from IE, second one from Mozilla. In Mozilla shortcut linked text is glued to url after newline character.

I told you that the more accurate way of watching Foobar's memory usage is the 'VM Size' in Task Manager. What more do you want?

And anyway about the 'stupid coments (sic)', speak for yourself .
