Thoughts On Living A Very Long Life

Posted by tom2tec on

  • The candle that burns twice as bright, burns but half as long.
  • What good is a long life, if that life is not lived to the fullest?
  • A life of suffering is not likely to be that long, a life without suffering, not that worthwhile.
  • A life without self-examination is not really growing, which is not really living.
  • A life without conscious self-reflection leads nowhere. A lack of conscience leads to a lack of consciousness, many people are blissfully unaware of the reality around them and smothered in delusions of self-aggrandizement and self-gratification. One cannot truly be alive if one is not truly aware.

Adding Songs To Foobar2000’s Media Library

Posted by tom2tec on

When you first install Foobar2000, you’ll need to set up the Media Library. The library function monitors your music folders and allows you to access and manage your audio files. The better the accuracy of the filenames and the metadata, the more accurate the library catalog functions will work. You only need to add the main top folder. You can also add additional main folders in other locations.

File > Preferences > Media Library > Music Folders > Add…



Adding audio files to your Music folder will automatically be included into your library. You can also directly point Foobar2000 to new folders or files via the Files menu.

SMPlayer ~ Media Player With Built-in CODECS

Posted by tom2tec on

SMPlayer is a free media player for Windows and Linux with built-in codecs that can play virtually all video and audio formats. It doesn’t need any external codecs. Just install SMPlayer and you’ll be able to play all formats without the hassle to find and install codec packs.

One of the most interesting features of SMPlayer: it remembers the settings of all files you play. So you start to watch a movie but you have to leave… don’t worry, when you open that movie again it will be resumed at the same point you left it, and with the same settings: audio track, subtitles, volume…

SMPlayer is a graphical user interface (GUI) for the award-winning MPlayer, which is capable of playing almost all known video and audio formats. But apart from providing access for the most common and useful options of MPlayer, SMPlayer adds other interesting features like the possibility to play Youtube videos or download subtitles.

foo_dsp_stereoconv ~ Natural Headphone Crossfeed

Posted by tom2tec on

​Natural crossfeed Foobar2000 component designed to give a realistic crossfeed / speaker simulation effect on headphones or earphones while producing a wide soundstage and zero sound coloration.

Simulates speakers spaced 30+30 degrees apart (classic stereo setup with better front projection of imaging) or 50+50 degrees apart (widened stereo setup with more similarity to classic headphone soundstage width)

Update 2016-07-26: I’ve put the “secret” update in public as v2.1, containing a new set of impulses. They also come in 30+30 degree and 50+50 degree versions but are derived from actual measurements around my head.
