foo_cuefixer

Simple component for foobar2000 to fix CUE/FLAC problems

• Removes duplicate song entries that appear when adding adirectory containing a .cue file that links to timestamps in a base .flac/.wav/.ape file.
• Removes such duplicates also when adding tracks from media library.
• Removes broken .cue files that point to missing files (.flac/.wav/.ape etc).

Supported platforms

Windows x86, x64, ARM

Building

1. Download the foobar2000 SDK, extract its contents to path\to\sdk and open the single solution file, path\to\sdk\foobar2000\foo_sample\foo_sample.sln.

   WTL 10 is needed, extracted at a location such as other\path\to\wtl\. For every one of the:

   • foo_sample
   • foobar2000_sdk_helpers
   • libPPUI

   subprojects, edit in Visual Studio the properties for All Configurations/All Platforms under Configuration Properties -> C/C++ -> General and add the WTL headers path, other\path\to\wtl\Include, to Additional Include Directories.

2. Build the foobar2000 sample project for Debug and Release. The included settings target x86. It's fine to generate configurations for x64 and ARM64 based on x86.

   Project pfc is special: for Debug and, respectively, Release, for any Active solution platform, select Debug FB2k and, respectively, Release FB2K in the Visual Studio Configuration Manager.

3. Switch to the foo_cuefixer directory and generate the Visual Studio solution, explicitly referencing the Win32, x64 or ARM64 architecture and the foobar2000sdk path:

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake .. -AWin32 -Dfoobar2000sdk="path\to\sdk"

4. Open the generated foo_cuefixer.sln solution, build it and use the resulting build\src\<Debug|Release>\foo_cuefixer.dll in foobar2000, under the user-components directory.
