Title: Foobar & File Integrity?
Post by: rigpimp on November 11, 2023, 02:16:45 PM
There appears to have been a file integrity component that stopped being used when 2.0 rolled out. Am I correct to presume that if I load files into Foobar I will be notified if they are bad or do I actually need to PLAY the file? Is there a component that I can add where I can right-click many loaded files and have Foobar check the file integrity?

I ask because TLH says all the high-res albums I have fail integrity checks but they play fine in Foobar. Mediainfo also reads them fine and if something is corrupt it would not load file info.

I think there is a version of FLAC.exe that was showing errors on 24 bit files. You might want to be sure TLH is using the most current version of FLAC.

^ I think you are right. The latest update of xACT, from October, was to implement the latest version of FLAC ("Updated flac to 1.4.3").

Most current version still has the bug.  See my post here....

Rory, this is great info and important for TLH users to know. Any time I wipe C: I am pretty good about updating flac.exe in TLH since it is no longer updated or supported. I updated to 1.4.3 on 10/24/2023

I still get this error (attached)

Thanks Gordon. I will hang loose for now
