foobar2000 v2 x64 component for exposing a configured Google Drive folder as a playlist/feed item, similar to source components such as YouTube Source.
Playback prioritizes stability: the component downloads a selected Drive file to a local cache on first playback, then delegates decoding to foobar2000’s normal input components using the cached local file.
Features:
- Google OAuth desktop flow with system browser, localhost redirect, and PKCE.
- OAuth token saved under the foobar2000 profile and protected with Windows DPAPI when available.
- Preferences page for OAuth client JSON, Drive folder ID/URL, cache directory, cache size limit, and saved token removal.
- Recursive file listing from Google Drive
files.list, limited to downloadable audio-looking blob files.- Playlist insertion using
gdrive://<fileId>/<encoded filename>.- Playlist/feed track support using
gdrive://folder/<folderId>/<encoded name>.- File menu integration under
File > Google Drive Stream, including folder URL/ID loading into a new playlist.- Front cover artwork support from image files in the same Drive folder, preferring names such as
cover,folder,front,album, orartwork.- Artwork inheritance for nested folders,
Album/cover.jpgcan apply to tracks underAlbum/Disc 1.- Context menu expansion of a selected folder feed into its current Drive audio files.
- Context menu refresh that replaces the already-expanded
gdrive://file tracks immediately after the folder feed.- First-play cache download through Drive
files.get?alt=media.
