foobar2000 2.0 beta 27
  • Now available as x86 32-bit (legacy), x86 64-bit. ARM 64-bit version coming soon. 64-bit versions require updated versions of add-on components.
  • Dark mode support on Windows 10 and 11. Add-on components need to be updated to utilize it.
  • Entirely new media library engine, backed by SQLite. Much faster startup and shutdown with large libraries, greatly reduced memory usage.
  • Greatly improved performance of media library search queries that don't use %patterns%.
  • Added album art in Default User Interface playlist view.
  • Clickable rating stars in Default User Interface playlist view.
  • New Default UI element: ReFacets, reimplementing most of Facets functionality. Old Facets component doesn't work with new 64-bit foobar2000.
  • Improved Default UI splitter, now allows any number of panes.
  • Added 'remember per playlist layout' to Default User Interface playlist view.
  • Added 'stream selector' element to Default User Interface toolbar.
  • New audio output device management features - unwanted devices can be disabled, bit depth and DSP can be configured per-device.
  • New internal playlist format, changes instantly saved to disk, no more recent changes lost on crash.
  • New configuration data format, changes instantly saved to disk, no more recent changes lost on crash.
  • Can display file creation time (%file_created%) and attributes (%file_attributes%).
  • For non-portable installs, profile folder is now %appdata%\foobar2000-v2. There is no need to back up old profile before upgrading, your foobar2000 v1.x profile will be left untouched.
  • First run performs import of old configuration data (playlists, library).
  • More audio formats supported out of the box: TAK, APE, AC3, DTS.
  • Updated FFmpeg to version 5.1.
  • Improved Properties behavior if 'reload info' detects a change in number of chapters etc.
  • Rewritten built-in visualisations (VU/peak meters, spectrum, oscilloscope), now using hardware accelerated rendering.
  • Some Default UI Elements (ReFacets, Equalizer, visualisations) now also accessible as Columns UI panels.
  • Internet Radio dialog (File menu), remembers previously played Internet radio streams.
  • Modernized Explorer integration, no longer needs separate 32bit/64bit shell extension DLLs.
  • Properties dialog now follows theme colors of the active UI.
  • Utilized Windows Imaging Component for image parsing, removed libwebp dependency. Album covers in HEIF, AVIF, etc can now be viewed if system codecs are present.
  • Added %year% mapping, takes year part of %date%, discarding content past first four digits.
  • Changed default Album List patterns to use %year%.
  • Added sample rate exclusions to SSRC resampler.
  • Added crossfeed DSP from foobar2000 mobile.
  • New console logging system, writes per-instance log files to the specified folder.
  • New full config reset semantics - now clears profile folder (optionally leaving user-components intact) instead of asking all components to reset themselves.
  • These add-on components are now obsolete as their functionality is available out of the box: foo_benchmark, foo_bitcompare, foo_verifier, foo_input_monkey, foo_ac3, foo_sanitizer, foo_input_dts.
  • These components previously included with the installer are no longer optional (features always enabled): foo_rgscan, foo_cdda, foo_albumlist
  • libFLAC 1.4.2, made possible to decode 32 bits per sample FLAC file.
  • Worked around FLAC files with ID3 tags being reported as corrupted by new libFLAC.
  • zlib 1.2.13.
  • Fixed incorrect handling of M4A itunescompilation=0.
  • WavPack 5.5.0.
  • Compiled with Visual Studio 2022.
  • Made possible to apply DSP config changes without reinitializing affected DSPs.
  • Allowed DSPs to manipulate their shown name depending on preset data.
  • Added mitigations for apparent random crash on Wine (less C++ exceptions thrown when dealing with media indexing errors).
