Re: Loading entire music file onto RAM before playback

TIA.

I do not use foobar any longer!

However:

Foobar loads a file into RAM, if the file-size
is smaller than the configured full-file-buffer.

As far as I can recall it, you can check this with the
taskmanager. It'll show how much RAM is allocated by foobar.
If the file is loaded the shown size should have been grown accordingly.

There were certain foobar revisions, which had a problem with
the buffer config. The buffer size had to be filled in in bytes instead of kbytes. Instead of e.g. 50.000 (for 50 MB) you had to fill
in 50.000.000 instead.


If you want foobar to run from RAMDISK. You need to copy your files
over there and you got to open up a new playlist.
