As Monkey's Audio is under rapid development, it's once again available as a separate component that can be updated separately from foobar2000 itself. The component has just been updated to latest Monkey's Audio library and fully supports modern CPU architectures.
  • Added extra sanity checks to tag update operations in built-in codecs: made sure that attempts to remove covers from files that didn't have them in first place don't alter files at all.

Changelog v2.0:
  • Now available as x86 32-bit (legacy), x86 64-bit, ARM 64-bit.

  • 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 6.0.
  • Improved Properties behavior if 'reload info' detects a change in number of chapters etc.

  • 64-bit version no longer moves user-components folder to user-components-x64 on first run.
  • Fixed playback of 8-channel Vorbis, beta 17 regression.

Beta 19:
  • Crash regression fix.

Beta 20:
  • Added "low memory mode" in 32-bit build, restoring pre-beta18 style tag caching semantics.
    - Located in advanced preferences / general.
    - If foobar2000 cannot start up due to memory usage, it can be emergency-enabled by putting "enable_low_mem_mode" file in the profile folder.
  • Misc search bug fixes.
  • Playlist group layout optimizations reverted (no more scrollbar jumping around stupidly), unless in the new low memory mode.
  • Fixed various RIFF64 WAV reading bugs.
  • Fixed blank edit menu shown when no items are enabled.

Beta 21:
  • Fixed accidental twin Peak Meters.
  • Fixed a bug resulting in nonsensical channel mask being passed around.
  • No longer recreates all DSPs when manually cycling tracks in playlist.
  • Removed untested code for float16 & float24 audio reading. If you run into actual samples of such files, please let me know.
  • Worked around ages old problem with external changes to file tags causing loss of foo_playcount data (needs new foo_playcount).
  • Added 'icon' column in default playlist view.

Beta 22:
  • Fixed total playback time not being remembered since beta 18.
  • Fixed problems with accessing some non-UTF8-compliant FTP servers.
  • DSP bug fixes.
  • Fixed FPL writer regression causing some of written playlists to be unreadable.
  • Fixed a bug that prevented some internet radio station names from being shown.

Beta 23:
  • Fixed missing CListControl accessibility support in 64-bit version.
  • Fixed crash after loss of audio output device while playing.
  • Fixed random shutdown crash when using Album List or ReFacets with filters.
  • Fixed wrong content shown in left pane of File Operations pattern picker.

Beta 24:
  • Made fast DSP reset (introduced in previous version) opt-in, as it breaks certain third party DSPs.
  • File Operations: Dark mode bug fixes.
  • Preferences / Shell: changed default target playlist name.
  • Fixed outdated info shown after editing tags in low-memory mode.
  • Properties Autofill logic amended.
  • Album List & ReFacets: improved handling of | character in tags.

Beta 25:
  • Fixed portable mode relative paths not being respected by playlist load/save operations.
  • Fixed bad MD5 verification of AIFF sourced WavPacks.
  • Reworked fb2k::configStore, now less prone to silly errors saving random configuration bits, should recover from momentary problems with the configuration file instead of crashing.
  • Slightly better communication between output device checkboxes vs output picker toolbar.
  • Better console logging if internet stream reconnect events.
  • Workaround for disappearing windows when dismissing certain DSP dialogs.
  • Dark Mode: Fixed some prompt headers having odd color.
  • Dark Mode: Fixed tri-state checkboxes.
  • Darkened classic MP3 utility dialogs.
  • Reworked first run & import of old foobar2000 settings. Import of old foobar2000 configuration is now optional.

Beta 26:
  • Portable install playlist save lag regression from beta 25 fixed.
  • Made more edit boxes recognize ctrl+backspace.
  • Better info reporting for lossless DTS files.

Beta 27:
  • Fixed playlist layout glitch causing unwanted scrolling during certain events.
  • Implemented fb2k::playlistColumnProvider::flag_alignCenter, was missing until now.
  • Disabled slow meta autocomplete in low-memory mode.
  • Properties: Log tag update errors to console.
  • Dark mode: fixed listbox scrollbars.
  • Worked around foo_input_dvda bugs, no longer crashes on null album art data returned.
  • Disabled behind-the-scenes unicode normalization of metadata, caused bugs with playback statistics pinning.
  • First run will rebuild index for playback statistics, might stall for a few seconds on startup. This is due to the above, corrects potential bad data.
  • New API: metadb_pre_update_callback, mainly intended to reliably notify foo_playcount about meta changes preventing data loss in corner cases.
  • ReFactes: Added multi value columns similar to original Facets.
  • ReFacets: Enter key in search box sends results to playlist.

Beta 28:
  • Native foobar2000 for ARM is finally available.
  • Supports ARM builds of components but doesn't actually require them, can transparently load x64 code.
  • Native ARM version requires Windows 11. If you run Windows 10, you can still run legacy 32-bit foobar2000 through x86 emulation.
  • FFmpeg updated to 6.0.
  • Built-in Monkey's Audio support now uses FFmpeg. As Monkey's Audio is under rapid development, it's once again available as a separate component that can be updated separately from foobar2000 itself. The component has just been updated to latest Monkey's Audio library and fully supports modern CPU architectures.
  • Added extra sanity checks to tag update operations in built-in codecs: made sure that attempts to remove covers from files that didn't have them in first place don't alter files at all.

Beta 29:
  • Converter fixes in 64-bit build, made possible to write 32-bit fixed-point and 64-bit floating-point output.
  • Converter vs LAME: allowed 32-bit floating-point pass-thru, as current LAME version supports it.
  • Fixed Windows logoff/shutdown causing foobar2000 not to save playback position.
  • Fixed main window position/size not respecting system DPI settings.
  • Updated exclusive output device-specific workarounds.

Beta 30:
  • Fixed beta 29 regression, maximized main window state is remembered again.

Changelog v2.0:
  • Now available as x86 32-bit (legacy), x86 64-bit, ARM 64-bit.
  • 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%.
  • Playback Statistics functionality is now built-in. Old foo_playcount data gets imported on first run. Please remove foo_playcount as instructed.
  • 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 6.0.
  • Improved Properties behavior if 'reload info' detects a change in number of chapters etc.

  • 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
