11.3.10 VBRfix
This function scans a VBR (Variable Bitrate) MP3 file and updates/creates the Xing
VBR header. The Xing header contains information about the VBR stream used to
calculate average bit rate, time information and to more accurately fwd/rew in the
stream. This function is especially useful when the playback of a file skips, fwd/rew
does not work correctly or the time display is incorrect.
Note:
VBRfix can only run when music is turned off (since it uses the same memory as
b
the player) and can take a while to complete if run on big files.
11.3.11 Wavplay
Figure 11.38: Wavplay
This plugin is for demo purposes only. It is planned to have Wavplay as part of the
normal playback engine later.
At the moment it is only possible to start playing one
.wav
-file at a time. Therefore
playlists are impossible. As every other viewer plugin, Wavplay is associated with the
specific files. Playing a
.wav
-file starts the plugin automatically and the Wavplay screen
appears. This screen gives information about samplerate and length of the playing file.
Note:
Seeking within the
.wav
-file or changing the volume once the plugin is running is
b
not possible. Wavplay uses the sound settings that were used before (except for pitch).
The only action that can be performed is to stop by pressing
Off
, and Wavplay will
be exited and you are returned to the filebrowser. If the end of the file has been reached,
you will also be returned to the filebrowser.
