Peter has updated the foobar2000 SDK. There is only one change: invalid data handling bugs in string manipulation helpers have been fixed. Download the new foobar2000 SDK from the foobar2000 website.
lvgcl has released a new version of his high-quality resampler based on the SoX “rate” algorithm. Visual comparisons of competing sample rate conversion (SRC) algorithms are available if you wish to compare this resampler with others.
Please note that the obvious differences in these visual representations of audio will probably not be audible in most cases. The differences are mostly below both the human threshold of hearing and the noise floor of most audio equipment.
You can download the component and its source code at the foobar2000 forums.

bubbleguuum has released a new version of his discogs-querying tagging component.
Changes:
- Fixed: “move the at beginning” setting was not honored in all credit tags + other artists field (members, anvs, aliases, groups) and numeric suffix found in artist names where not removed for those tags.
- Added: Release and track credits as a multi-value field in DISCOGS_RELEASE_CREDITS_MULTI and DISCOGS_TRACK_CREDITS_MULTI.
- Changed: “Label” and “Remix track credit” are now mapped to the PUBLISHER and REMIXED BY fields by default to allow foobar2000 to write those tags to the dedicated ID3v2 frame.
- Source code released.
