I think the update doesn't really get lost, it should still get updated next time playback stops as long as you don't reload info (for technical reasons I made it not flush update queue when advancing tracks, I think I'm going to change this).

Ahh, I see, and you're correct about the update happening on playing stopped. I ran a test letting the album play to end and stop by itself, the file was updated.

3 small problems:
1) playlist search: when i search for exemple " Björk " or "Noir Désir" no results are found because ö é characters aren't recognized.
2) when seeking , flickering of status bar (sometime, very clear with complicated formatting, less clear with standard formatting.)
3) when "skip silence" is activated, when silence is skipped, time displayed in status bar isn't true.

.7b9, XP: Replaygain scanner causes error when scanning one (mp3) file with track gain:

"An error occured while processing files."

The progressbar stops near the end (99%), then the error is displayed. Can be reproduced, even with a fresh download and all defaults.

Can't reproduce (file-specific ?)

Found the problem: the Replaygain scanner seems to be dependant on foo_dsp_extra.dll. I didn't install the extra DSP components, so RG scan didn't work (I assume this dependancy is normal behavoir?).

That would be a bug then (rgscan uses resampler for unsupported samplerates), but it should still work without foo_dsp_extra.

It doesn't work with any file and any pls. Here's a simple sample PLS playlist :

<snip>

Music\Dark + Gothic + Mittelalter\Obsidian Voice\Taste of Night\05 - Requiem.ogg

<snip>

or

<snip>

05 - Requiem.ogg

<snip>

After double clicking the PLS file fb2k starts and the playlist window is empty. Dragging a PLS file to the playlist window doesn't work too.

Should work with "proper" .pls files written by Winamp, which have slightly different syntax.

Beta12 with new SDK posted, components made with older 0.7 SDKs no longer work.

Replaygain scan dependancy fixed, thanks.

Foobar now crashes when connecting to a shoutcast mp3 stream. according to winamp: SHOUTcast Distributed Network Audio Server/win32 v1.9.2.

It happens with two shoutcast streams I tried. I haven't tried more. One is: http://66.28.68.70:8005

Known/fixed, try this.

Just upgraded to beta 12, no longer able to reproduce...

Sorry but I saved the PLS files with fb2k and I think it should be able to load its own playlist files.
BTW: 0.7beta12 doesn't fixed this bug.

I have the same problem. I use fb2k to save the playlist on a .pls and when I add the .pls, it doesn't load the playlist.

I have this problem:

Update: When i try play track 24 with foobar2000 0.7b12

There is no problem with other tracks.

Still not fixed in Beta 12.

Hmm, forgot that fb2k itself writes .pls too (or rather, writes m3u files with pls extension).

Can't reproduce.

Bug in 0.7 beta 12?

Using the masstagger's rename files ability the following code produces an error:
\%artist%\$if(%album%,%artist% - %album%\)%artist%[ - Disc %disc%][ - %tracknumber%] - %title%

The previev looks something like:
\'artist'\[SYNTAX ERROR...]\[SYNTAX ERROR...]...

If I remove the \ from inside the $if(..) part of the code it works but that's not what I want :-). The same problem occurs if I put the \ inside brackets, [ ], or whatever they are called. For example [ - %album%\] also produce an error

I tried using / instead of \ but that doesn't work either...

This problem has never occured before in 0.6x or 0.7b9 or earlier...

Not a bug, title formatting strings are now split into directory/file names before processing, to prevent path separator chars inside tags from causing trouble.

Ha, you're right...renaming the PLS files to M3U extension make the playlists work again =).

See what error message you get when you use this test decoder.

I try to compress flac with 7 and 5 settings, always the same
I don't know why is that happend
My cue is ok, as i write before in winamp with mp3cue or compressed with other loseless codec.

beta13 posted, see links in first post.

works perfect
thanks peter

getting better and better!

yeah,Perfect everytime.


---Advice:

When I minimize the foobar window,the visualization window also minimized.I just want to show it always.And I can't find a "close" on the visualization window,while I have to re-select "Test visualization".

---Advice

That plugin's just meant to show that the vis system works, not to be a fully-fledged vis plugin. Wait until more people code some visualizations and this problem ought to fix itself.

As a side (and perhaps technical) note: Why does the spectrum drop off the way it does in the vis plugin?

It displays full spectrum it gets from FFT, droput indicates lowpassing in lossy formats (doesn't occur with losslessly-encoded files).

Hm strange. I now installed Beta 13. On all three computers I have the same bug. On one of them this is a clean install of the foobar2000. What could I be doing wrong? Is there any way to completely delete all foobar2000 file associations and create totaly new ones or is this overwrite already done with installer?

Are the files associated with foobar at all? Does foobar launch properly when you double click one of the files in that directory?


No need to delete anything in registry, that fooassoc program takes care of everything.

Yup I selected all files to be associated with foobar2000 and they all open properly if i double click them. They also open if I just select ONLY ONE file and then in the context menu select Play with foobar 2000 or Enqueue. But if I select multiple files none of this context menu commands work. And also the Play All comand in Windows Explorer doesn't work. Foobar2000 doesn't even open in these cases.

*finally clues in*

So it's not a logarithmic display? That would explain what I see...

bug already present in .667 :
when scan replaygain per file on the whole playlist and some entry are dead, it crashes f2k (no error message, just disapear)

I also have this problem. My os is winxp pro sp1. Same problem with Zoom Player. However, winamp 2.81 works fine.

http://www.beatkings-onair.de:8000/listen.pls dont work for me :/

Multimedia key does not work properly in FB2k v0.7 beta 13. Using a Microsoft Natural Multimedia Keyboard, key works fine in Winamp and other applications.

The Play/Pause key does not work properly. It appears as if pressing the key results in the file being paused then unpaused (if the file is already playing). If nothing is playing, hitting the play/pause key results in the file being started to play, then pausing immediately (there is no noise, but Fb2k says it is being played and the current position of the file stays at 0:00)

dont we have wma plugin for this version yet ??

I use this WMA plugin from Case's foobar2000 directory that works with v0.7beta13

Can't reproduce, please check your settings.

Beta 15 uploaded.

bug in beta15: when adding files by doubleclicking on them in the explorer it gets added to the playlist (replaces the currect playlist in my configuration), loads the file infos but doesn't start to play.

known/fixed

Beta 16 uploaded. The links are probably not working at the moment so you may need to download big installer.

bug in beta16 big installer version
when opening m3u playlists every file gets imported twice and everything seems to be very slow and delayed

There was a problem with file associations, fixed installers are uploaded and fixed fooassoc is also available.

While I was trying to solve the Play All and context menu problem with multiple files (still doesn't work properly with foobar2000 even in beta 16 and I tried almost anything I could think of) I found some Microsoft document that could be of use in another problem I had:
Error Message "Unable to Find Playable File" in Windows Media Player for Windows XP
I think this should be handled when making file associations for audio file during foobar2000 installation.
