Вопросы / Questions / Re: DirectSound
« on: December 08, 2021, 11:46:44 »Really?Well, on my PC with an i7-11800H TaskManager will report 1 - 1.3% CPU usage while AIMP is using the built in anticlipping. Relying on 32-bit float audio for anticlipping AIMP uses less than 0.1%. It's not much, but I think 32-bit float is more efficient.

« on: December 08, 2021, 11:25:30 »But our resampler has better quality than DirectSound's oneI am not arguing that. Personally I can't hear a difference. It just makes no sense to me as to why this option needs to be removed in W11. It works perftectly, even in W11.

Soolo, I am not claiming to hear any difference, because I cannot. That is not my problem, I don't want AIMP to do the resampling, and I also want 32-bit float audio. DirectSound is perfectly functional on Windows 10 21h2 and Windows 11 21h2, I don't understand why is it even a debate whether to remove a perfectly functional option.

« on: December 08, 2021, 10:57:56 »DirectSound is unavailable in Windows 11Is there a reason for this? Because AIMP runs just fine with DirectSound on Windows 11 under compatibility mode.
Surface Pro 7 cannot change the output to 44.1KHz, so I rely on DirectSound in order to avoid having AIMP to resample everything to 48KHz. I know the device will resample everything to 48KHz before the final output, but I don't want AIMP to do this resampling.

Maybe I'll end up using that if I have no other choice. It's still adjusting the volume slower than 32f.

For sound processing, without 32f you may end up with audio clipping.

Soolo, but the system panel won't allow me to use 32-bit float. I get to choose only between 16-bit and 24-bit, which for output both are fine, but for mixing not the best.

But is there a way to change the parameters to 44.1KHz and 32-bit float now? I never had any problems with DirectSound on Windows 10. Without 32-bit float I get sound clipping whenever using any DSP, and the volume normalization feature adjusts the volume too slow. 32-bit float was doing a perfect job here.
For now the solution seems to run AIMP in compatibility mode, it brings back that ability on Windows 10, but it's nnot a great solution.

I just updated to 2334 from 2324, and found that DirectSound output device is missing.

« on: October 12, 2021, 18:40:04 »
AIMP v3.20 is very slow at accessing files within a large folder compared to v3.10. It takes half a second to a second to start playing the selected file.
Path is "/*sd card*/Music/Music 2/", the folder "Music 2" contains 1056 .mp3 files.
The phone is a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra (N9860), running Android 11 with August 1st 2021 security patch.
The SD card is a Samsung EVO Plus 512GB (2020 model).
v3.20 RC2, build 1155 https://i.imgur.com/eNQyQi4.mp4
v3.10, build 1052 https://i.imgur.com/8DzcxFD.mp4
I assume this is due to scoped storage, so it may not be fixable.

Вопросы / Questions / Windows 10 native looking buttons
« on: June 21, 2021, 17:07:02 »
Shouldn't the buttons throughout AIMP windows (Preferences, DSP, Advanced/Tag Editor, Converter, etc) match Windows 10 design? Now they seem to match Windows 8 aesthetic, with the sliders looking like Windows 7.
Windows 10's buttons have a solid #E1E1E1 background while AIMP still has a gradient to them, both on bright and dark theme. That is for bright theme, I don't think Windows 10 natively has dark controls for Win32 programs. The slider controls are blue in Windows 10, in AIMP they could match the accent colour.

Вопросы / Questions / Re: playlist when disk changes
« on: November 09, 2020, 16:22:30 »
I don't know if there is a nicer way of doing this, but one possible solution is to open all playlists in a text editor and replace all (Ctrl+H) "D:\" with "C:\".
You can use something like Notepad++ and do this, at the same time, for all playlists. Notepad++ offers a portable version which does not require installation, if you don't want to install it.
Of course, if your path was something like "D:\Music\" and now you have "C:\Uers\username\Music\" then replace the whole modified path. Process is the same. Just create a backup of your playlist files before you do this. Also close AIMP while you modify them.
