Вышел foobar2000 v2.25! Предыдущая версия: foobar2000 v2.24.

• Built-in UPnP media renderer, both client (play to another device) and server (be controlled by another device).
  
  • Other foobar2000 instances on your local network, with UPnP remote control feature active, will be listed as output devices.
  • foobar2000-to-foobar2000 playback shows tags with album covers on the other end, using Ogg FLAC as stream container.
• Media Library improvements, most notably:
  
  • Can natively index FTP/WebDAV/SMB network shares.
  • Improved response to enabling/disabling/installing/uninstalling decoders - only reloads info from affected music files.
• Codecs, most notably:
  
  • FFmpeg updated to 8.0, added native support for xHE-AAC decoding.
  • Rewritten Ogg FLAC tag handling, properly implemented embedded album art.
  • Fixed ReplayGain tags not being saved in multichapter Ogg/Opus files.
• Portable install improvements
  
  • Changed the way relative paths are handled, so cached tags are no longer forgotten after relaunching from a different path.
  • Made possible so specify no-cover pics as relative path to install location.
• Converter:
  
  • Enabled RF64 writing.
  • Fixed Converter failing to function until foobar2000 restart after removal of %TEMP%\foo_converter.
• Other
  
  • Added preferences page for network share credentials so you don't have to place them in URLs anymore.
  • Made editing DSP settings momentarily lower output latency to make DSPs appear more responsive.
  • Fixed Properties 'rewrite tags' not working if nothing has been edited.
