MIDI player's config dialog doesn't fit properly into foobar2000's UI. Perhaps the issue relates to using a 4K monitor with an increased scaling of 175%?
Blame Microsoft. The whole dialog uses Device Independent coordinates and leaves the scaling in the hands of the Windows dialog manager.

Except for rebuilding the preferences as a separate dialog I don't see another option. Eventually it'll have to happen but I've been avoiding it because it is not a fun job.

Hi, I just checked out your plugin foo_vis_milk2. It appears that custom font settings are saved but don't get applied.

Side note: The release page on GitHub hasn't been updated since v0.2.0.0 from November, 17th 2024.

I'd appreciate if there can be an optional delay for the ReFacets search functionality. Especially when there's just a few characters in the field, which currently trigger a search each time I'm in doubt while typing the query

# 1.62.25.05.13
-Add `FbMetadbHandleList` `SaveAs`. Saves using native `.fpl`
format so you should use that as the file extension. The
parent folder must already exist.
Finally can save into fpl playlists. Is it possible to load a fpl playlist as a handle list (skipping the UI)?

-Add `fb.ShowPictureViewer(image_path)`. This uses the image
viewer built in to `foobar2000`.
Will add that one to biography, which was the missing bit for art.

Thanks for both!

The sample Brand linked is interesting, though the claim that higher the bitrate the worse it sounds isn't entirely correct.
At certain bitrates Opus refrains from trying to encode the noise between ~12 kHz and ~15 kHz, but once bitrate increases above those thresholds it stupidly encodes parts of that frequency range. For example 128 kbps is worse than 150 kbps, and while 256 kbps sounds worse than 150 kbps, 320 kbps is once again better than 150 kbps.
It's not doing a worse job because bitrate increases, it just doesn't seem to understand what it's encoding and sprinkles the extra bits randomly leading to awful artifacting.

Do you have a source for this?
Don't understand the question. He's done his homework!
