This page contains various technical options meant for advanced users.

Audio

Use OpenSL audio output (Android only)

By default, foobar2000 mobile uses AudioTrack interface to play audio.

Toggling this option causes another method, OpenSL, to be used. It's known to work better on some devices, but also breaks on some others (most notably old HTC phones).

High-definition audio output (iOS only)

Asks the system to enable output of high-definition audio streams (24-bit, high sample rates). Without this option, the system may downsample relevant content.

This option is intended for mainly for use with USB audio devices connected.

Null audio output

Disables audio output. For testing only.

Smooth seeking/pausing/volume

Same as equivalent feature of desktop foobar2000.

Introduces short fades when changing volume, seeking or pausing.

Causes output engine to run at low latency, may be more prone to glitches if your CPU is under load.

Display

Use grid view for albums

Self-explanatory.

Album grid view image-only

Alters behavior of the above, shows covers only without text labels.

Sort albums by date

Self-explanatory.

Show non-audio files in folders

When browsing filesystem folders (not library views), causes files that are not recognized as audio to be shown also.

Hide duplicate tracks when browsing

Suppresses display of apparent duplicate tracks in library views - for an example, if you have an album in two different audio formats (such as lossless+lossy), apparent-higher-quality copy will be shown only.

Show playback screen upon selecting track to play

Self-explanatory.

Show next track info on playback screen

Self-explanatory.

Show auto-detected storage devices in main page (Android only)

Self-explanatory.

Library

Exclude mask

New in v1.3.1.

Exclude specific file types (wildcard mask) from being indexed.

Example: *.mp3;*.m4a - this will HIDE all MP3 and M4A files.

Same as desktop foobar2000 Media Library "exclude" setting.

Restrict mask

New in v1.3.1.

Restrict library indexing to specific file types (wildcard mask).

Example: *.mp3;*.m4a - this will hide ALL OTHER files but MP3 and M4A.

Same as desktop foobar2000 Media Library "restrict to" setting.
