Foobar alternative asio Pc#
I havent tested single PC hibernate mode yet, but I may soon. It automates launching Foobar, and the sound seems better (slight improvement in clarity). One change I made last night was to run Foobar as a shell in Core mode. I still have to get used to things, but all is working well. I haven't experience any glitches or issues with playback using Foobar or MonkeyMote HD. I haven't determined which one is better, but Foobar is worth tweaking on. Sound quality is very close to J.River with the exact same settings, but there are small differences. I haven't tried other JPLAY engines, but River is by far the best sounding for me with AO 1.30. I will try tweaking settings a bit more and will listen to determine the best final setup. While the user interface of foobar2000/MonkeyMote is not as pleasing as JRMC/JRemote, the combination now works reliably and ias sounding good. Remote control is from my iPad using MonkeyMote for foobar2000.

I use Windows Server 2012 Server R2 and having got everything working in GUI Mode, I switched to Core Mode and ran Audiophile Optimizer. Under Output-ASIO I have 'Use 64-bit ASIO Drivers' and 'Run with high process priority' selected. I have buffer length set to 50 in foobar2000. I am now using River engine in JPLAY with all buffers in JPLAY settings set to Direct Link. I researched the subject online and wondered if changing the JPLAY engine might bring about an improvement in both reliability and sound. No adjustment in buffer sizes would correct the problem. Bass was ill defined, there was a lack of separation and instruments in the higher frequency range were harsh. I could play an album from start to finish but was unable to move between tracks on a given album or change albums without getting the 'Unrecoverable playback error: Timeout' message. When I installed foobar2000 and used it with JPLAY, track switching was highly unreliable. Remote control for this system was achieved using JRemote. I also used JRMC to play DSD files on the fly, converting them to 176.4kHz output. With JRMC running I used the Xtream engine in JPLAY with all buffer settings set to Direct Link. I always liked JRMC but the removal of JPLAY functionality made the change necessary. I have recently changed from JRMC20 to foobar2000.
