hi everyone!

so, what i would like is to make foobar act like winamp when loading a playlist of a still incoming album. meaning, when i start downloading an album, i'd like to load its playlist in foobar right away (as soon as the first song completes), so the songs are being played as they're downloaded. in a way - set it and forget it.

to give an example, this is what happens when i do it in winamp;

and this is what happens in foobar;

as you can see, the 'problem' here is that foobar doesnt want load 'unexisting' files although they are on the playlist. anyone knows how can i make it work the way i'd like to?


sorry if there already was a topic regarding my query, but i couldnt find anything when i searched.


btw, is it really that neccessary to have to wait for 5! days to be able to post? sad.gif

No it is not possible to do this in foobar since foobar needs to read the entire metadata from the file tags and some info from the file header on first load and not just when the file starts playing.
