Help needed on foobar

[ranjeetrain]

As I described earlier,foobar in my windows 8 is working perfectly and in windows 7 not.
This problem is not related to version of windows rather it is related to drivers of your laptop. either you have to reinstall drivers or reinstall windows that is the only solution IMO.

I was saying DPC latency checker has issues on Windows 8 (not foobar). Foobar works equally well for me on both Win 7 and 8 (discounting OS differences).

I can see this laptop is so slow even scrolling through menus, start bar and changing mouse position takes time. May be I need another system. I have a mac too, any player I can use in Mac that won't screw things up like iTunes ? iTunes can't play FLAC

Then it's not a foobar specific problem. Laptop is too old perhaps. I'd still suggest before giving up do a fresh installation from the original disk that came with the laptop and try again. And don't install anti-virus if you'd only use it as a music PC. The laptop should still be more than enough for playing music.

I tried installing foobar in my another windows laptop and is working fine this time that's a good news however some of te tracks when I play I am getting below error
Unsupported stream format: 192000 Hz/16-bit/2 channel
I'm playing flac file from HDtracks, any one faced this issue ?

This isn't a Foobar error either. The source of this error is the hardware capability. The output device (soundcard/DAC wherever the output is going) isn't 192k capable. The solution would be to use a higher spec DAC. Another thing you can try is:

• Press <Ctrl+P>
• Go to Playback > Output
• Try to select a lower resolution in the "Output data format"
• Also try playing with "Dither" setting to see which one works
