foobar not playing

Postby fje00 on Sat Jan 20, 2007 6:17 am

I am having trouble getting foobar to play my music. I just installed xlobby last week and foobar about 5 min ago. So I have latest versions.

I added the path to foobar in the zone on the general tab. foobar starts up at xlobby startup. I imported all my music into xlobby and cover art is being displayed. Yet when I try to play a song or album nothing happens.

I have looked through the threads and it sounds like it should be pretty straight forward. One thing I was wondering though, because I haven't seen it discussed anywhere, my music is all in wma format. I know foobar will play it, but does it present a problem for xlobby for some reason?

Two things:

1) Do you have the Foobar plugin installed? (Go here for installation instructions, but I think the link in that topic is a plugin for pre-.9 foobar versions)

2) I assume either you've added "wma" to your list of music import extensions, or it was there in the first place? (To double-check, go into Setup (F2) > Databases > Import tab and choose Music from the drop-down list. Check the extensions field).

Thanks. It was the missing DLL plugin. Plays fine now. :D
