A foobar2000 component decodes AdLib series formats. Based on AdPlug f8386a0, customized a little. Some formats needs companion file(s). If you find the output is adnormal, please check foobar console. You may miss companion file(s) and file provider will send errors to the console.

Compatibility

• foobar2000 v2.0 or newer, Windows, 32-bit and 64-bit.
• Built against the foobar2000 SDK (2025-03-07).

Building from source

Prerequisites

• Visual Studio 2022 with the Desktop development with C++ workload (and a Windows 10/11 SDK).
• The official foobar2000 SDK (2025-03-07 or compatible).
• WTL 10 (Windows Template Library).

Directory layout

The project files reference the SDK with system environment variable FB2KSDK. So, you just need to add the variable with SDK loacation to your system then the project will recognize it.

WTL MUST be placed as below:

├─ Foobar2000SDK-2025\
│  ├─ foobar2000\
│  │  ├─ SDK\
│  │  ├─ helpers\
│  │  ├─ shared\
│  │  └─ foobar2000_component_client\
│  ├─ libPPUI\
│  ├─ pfc\
│  └─ WTL10_01_Release\Include\        <- WTL goes here

Build steps

1. Open Adlib_Decoder.sln.
2. Add all .vcxproj in foobar2000SDK (except foo_sample) to the solution. Then add all these as references to foo_input_adlib_opl.
3. Build Release | Win32 and Release | x64 (both are required to package).
4. The Release|x64 post-build step runs fb2k_component_pack.ps1, producing dist\foo_input_adlib_opl.fb2k-component
