== Description ==
This is vgmstream, a library for playing streamed (prerecorded) video game audio. 

== Usage ==
[https://github.com/vgmstream/vgmstream/blob/master/doc/USAGE.md#foo_input_vgmstream-foobar2000-plugin Usage Info]

== Features ==
* [https://github.com/vgmstream/vgmstream/blob/master/doc/FORMATS.md List of supported formats]

Some of vgmstream's features:
* Hundreds of video game music formats and codecs, from typical game engine files to obscure single-game codecs, aiming for high accuracy and compatibility.
* Support for looped BGM, using file's internal metadata for smooth transitions, with accurate sample counts.
* Subsongs, playing a format's multiple internal songs separately.
* Many types of companion files (data split into multiple files) and custom containers.
* Encryption keys, internal stream names, and many other unusual cases found in game audio.
* TXTH function, to add external support for extra formats, including raw audio in many forms.
* TXTP function, for real-time and per-file config, like forced looping, removing channels, playing certain subsong, or fusing multiple files into a single one.
* Simple external tagging via .m3u files.
