Changing configuration of vgmstream plugin in foobar? by cooljacker at 2:42 PM EDT on March 31, 2011
This can be a stupid question, but whatever. So, if I use vgmstream plugin for winamp, I can easily change settings through winamp interface, but foobar plugin isn't configurable. I tried editing vgmstream cfg file in appdata/roaming with hex editor and also with win default notepad, (i only change loop value and nothing else because that's all I need) and when I try to start foobar after modification, it says the cfg file is corrupted and takes me back to default values.
foobar2000 uses a hash on the cfg files (stored in them from what i remember reading) to ensure they remain valid and to prevent manual tinkering with things. so unless the plug-in provides a way to change things / someone who knows where things are hidden (if they are) then you're basically stuck with things as they are.
File > Preferences and then Playback > Input > vgmstream should give you some options. But it seems to be a little buggy if you change values without restarting.
