The full version of a feature-packed media player
foobar2000 is an advanced yet easy-to-use audio player. The name foobar is derived from a common placeholder name used in computer programming.
foobar2000 is known for its highly modular design and extensive SDK that will help developers completely intervene into the software's source code. foobar2000 supports a vast array of audio file formats and comes with features for metadata support and file organization.
It also has a converter interface for use with command line encoders and noise shaping and dithering for maximization of audio fidelity of consumer-grade equipment.
Note: To prevent people from running outdated beta versions, every beta version expires after four weeks from the original release.
