Is there some way to get the Opus Viewer Panel to play .FLAC audio files, as it does with .mp3 and .wma files ?
I'm going through a very large collection of music, and setting 'Ratings' for each song. I'm currently using Dopus with VLC media player to do this, but it's a less than ideal process for a number of reasons (which I won't get into).
If the Dopus Viewer Panel could play (or be made to play) .FLAC audio files, this would be ideal. On the right side of the lister, I could open the Viewer Panel (to play the .FLAC audio file) and open the Metadata Pane below it (to set the song Rating). On the left side of the lister, I would simply use the down arrow key to move from song to song (where each song would play automatically as it was made active), and then select a Rating in the Meta Pane for each playing song.
I'm running Windows 7 Pro, and have the Xiph.Org Open Codecs installed, to provide .FLAC support in Windows 7.
That works in Windows 10 which plays FLAC out of the box, and should work in Windows 7 as long as Windows Media Player is set up to play FLAC files and the appropriate ActiveX/MIME mappings are in the registry.
.flac or .mp3 (only ones tested) doesn't appear to be working for me either way also.
No change after a restart of Opus.
The Internet Explorer plugin does appear to work, assuming it's not using another plugin.
Also, a little off-topic - but do i need to worry about a security risk of using this?
