Besides having an endless host of options, Columns UI and Album List Panel maintain a clean User Interface, and are dynamically fluid and smooth in their action!

foobar2000 v2.26.2 preview change log​

2026-10-22​

• Changed ARDFTSC resampler profile mapping to quality scale, 0.5 no longer uses modes with large window, which caused issues.
  • This change should fix various "lagging UI" issues apparently inflicted by ARDFTSRC middle mode operating on large blocks of audio.
• Changed resampler_manager default resampler choice if no user preference is set - chooses faster resampler (Speex) for <0.5, slower (ARDFTSRC) for >=0.5.
  • Above doesn't work for legacy get_resampler() method which didn't have a quality value parameter - components using it will get Speex resampler as more compatible.
  • Use resampler_manager::make_chain_() instantiate resamplers programmatically with quality scale value.
• Windows / Default UI: Fixed weird behavior of theme importer - custom columns & grouping values from imported theme are added to your config after approving theme preview, not first time menu showing them is opened.
• Windows: Code signed all utility DLLs bundled (FFmpeg, zlib, sqlite) to prevent foobar2000 being blocked by "Smart App Control".

2026-10-23​

• New additions to saved M3U/M3U8 playtlists: #foo-subsongs - list of subsong/chapter indexes for the next file in playlist.
  • Example: #foo-subsongs:1-10,12,14
  • This allows M3U/M3U8 playlists to retain subsong/chapter info.
  • Also needed by upcoming foobar2000 mobile update to recognize chapters in playlist-referenced media.
• Mac: Updated internal Playback Statistics to latest codebase.

• UPnP: Made send icy-meta style song titles to devices that ask for them.
• UPnP: Attempted fix for playback ending prematurely on Denon devices.

the next full release is out now for Foobar2000 (Windows build)​
