Support .cue files #15

Open digimezzo opened 8 years ago

digimezzo commented 8 years ago

User question : Is it in the plan for Dopamine to support .CUE file? I've got a couple of CD's in one big FLAC with .CUE file.

Foobar can handle it. Check how Foobar does it.

@digimezzo You should have realized that .cue files are essentially text. It records starting and ending timestamps of every tracks containing in the big file, which can be also .WAC/.APE.

When foobar2000/AIMP splits them, they simply "cut" tracks out.

You may comprehend .CUE as a disk "index", very similar to a playlist but just aiming to a single file.

For me support for Cue sheets would be great- most of my audio collection consists of single lossless files (APE, FLAC, WV) plus Cue sheets that describe these lossless audio files. So support for Cue sheets is essential for me- it would load the separate tracks inside a single lossless file and thus facilitate navigation.

Off-topic I have just noticed that the portable release of Dopamine version 1.5.4.0 creates Playlists folder in user folder C:\Users\UserName\Music\Dopamine\Playlists To be strictly portable Dopamine should not write outside its program folder and this Playlists folder should be created inside program folder (perhaps in Dopamine data and settings sub-folder).

I recently started using Dopamine and I quite like it. The lack of CUE support though has been a real problem as most of my albums are in the single track + cue format. This feature would be greatly appreciate it.
