I've been using the modified foo_input_std.dll file for some time now to get the LAME profile and version information. I've been using that information in my track info panel. But now that I've started encoding with the new 3.97b1 LAME that info isn't being displayed. The version will display fine but the profile (preset) is blank and the index is always 0.

So, what I would like to do is set-up an $if command that will display the LAME version and if there is a profile display that as well in (). So, I would get either of these 2 results
LAME 3.96 (aps)
LAME 3.97

Here is the string I have been using.

CODE

$if(%__lame_profile%,$get(head)Preset: $get(info)%__lame_version%' ('%__lame_profile%')'$char(10),)

When using that string, if the %_lame_profile% isn't there it will display this:
LAME 3.97 (?)
I've tried messing around with the string to splitt it up into 2 $if statements. One for the version and one for the profile, but I can't get it to work properly. Here's what I have so far.

CODE

$if(%__lame_version%,$get(head)Preset: $get(info)%__lame_version%,)
$if(%__lame_profile%,$get(info)' ('%_lame_profile%')'$char(10),)

But when using that string it will always give me LAME 3.9x (?) no matter if the profile info is present or not. I'm still somewhat a noob at configuring foobar and would really appreciate a push in the right direction.
Oh, and is there a way to display the full LAME version (3.96.1, 3.90.3 or 3.97b1) instead of just 3.9x?
Thx,
J

What about %__lame_version%[ '('%__lame_profile%')']?

Cool thanks...That did the trick

Here's what my new string looks like now.

CODE

$if(%__lame_version%,$get(head)Encoder: $get(info)%__lame_version%[ '('%__lame_profile%')']$char(10),)

Which will result in this for the previous LAME versions
Preset: LAME 3.96 (aps) [or whichever preset you used]

And for 3.97b1 I'm getting this
Preset: LAME 3.97

I'll look into that plugin you linked to. It still seems a bit unstable, but when I have a few minutes I'll check it out.
Thanks again,
J
