Frequently Asked Questions
| Q: | Files and folders appear unsorted on my player / car navigation. |
|---|---|
| A: | Some older devices don't sort but read files as they come from the filesystem. Maybe I will implement file/folder-sorting later. For the meantime use FolderSort v1.1 (download here). It does the job from Windows NT up to Windows7 (beyond may work. Please report, didn't test it). Does somebody know another command line tool for folder sorting ??? |
| Q: | Some items get synchronized every time I run FoobarSync, but I changed nothing! |
| A: | There are three possible reasons for that: 1. Some files have the wrong length in their header: For MP3 try foobar2000 -> right-click -> Utilities -> Fix MP3 VBR header and/or Rebuild MP3 stream. 2. The corresponding ConvertFormats section in your configuration file has a wrong bitrate information (Parameter 4), while bitrate estimation is used. 3. The target format is quality based, so a size estimation on average bitrate is not possible: Use _suffix or FFprobe (Parameter 5). |
| Q: | What about Unicode characters? |
| A: | Unicode should work! Let me know if not. I didn't test. |
| Q: | Can you implement feature X ? |
| A: | Depends on the benefit of the feature. Post your request in the FoobarSync thread on Hydrogenaudio Forums for discussion. |
| Q: | What is the answer to life, the universe and everything? |
| A: | 42 as you can google by yourself... |
