foobar2000 configuration strings

A bunch of random stuff I keep stored to make setup faster. Signed so anyone can see when the last mod time was. Unless otherwise noted: Canar 05:19, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

Canar 21:03, 10 April 2011 (UTC) -- FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU screwed up spacing

capitalization and normalization

This is not exhaustive nor canonical; sometimes it will decapitalize things that I think should be capitalized. Furthermore, due to the nuances of $replace, using this in a masstagger script successfully means running data through it twice.

$replace($caps2(%title%), A , a , An , an , The , the , And , and , But , but , Or , or , Nor , nor , At , at , By , by , For , for , From , from , In , in , Into , into , Of , of , Off , off , On , on , Onto , onto , Out , out , Over , over , To , to , Up , up , With , with , As , as , & , and )

cd sourced

prints cd if likely cd-sourced, ie. number of samples is a multiple of 588, the cd sector size. ~0.2% chance of false positives

$ifequal($mod(%length_samples%,588),0,CD,?)

mp3 sourced

prints mp3 if likely unaccurate-length mp3-sourced, ie. number of samples is a multiple of 1152. ~0.1% chance of false positives. Canar 21:06, 10 April 2011 (UTC) -- fixed incorrect output
