Summary: Foobar2000 won't watch folders Product: Wine Version: 1.3.7 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: lucisandor@gmail.com

Foobar2000 is a media player with an automatically updated media library. The library updates correctly when updates are triggered manually, but, under Wine, it does not detect changes in folders. Moreover, Foobar2000 provides for such cases a "polling" function, but that is useless too. The most upsetting is that changes in watched folders are not detected even when they were produced by Fooobar2000, e.g., by using the menu option "move file". If I move a file from one watched folder to another, the media library will not be aware of the changes in any of the two locations.

--- Comment #1 from Matt Lichtenberg kerobaros@gmail.com 2010-11-22 23:42:55 CST --- Confirming this bug report. I use foobar2000 1.1 on Wine 1.3.7, on Arch Linux, x86_64. Library does not update on anything but a restart, even when changes are made by foobar2000 itself.

--- Comment #2 from Dan Kegel dank@kegel.com 2010-11-23 05:57:40 CST --- IIRC, the FindFirstChange function in Wine has a known limitation: it won't set linux watches on subdirectories if the calling app doesn't explore the directories once itself after calling FindFirstChange. This could be related.

--- Comment #3 from Michael Pujos pujos.michael@laposte.net 2011-01-22 06:21:25 CST --- Folder watching do not work in foobar 2000 because ReadDirectoryChangesW() implementation in wine is horribly broken. In 2008 I did a patch that fixed it, but it didn't get accepted because it was not a trivial patch, was modifying wine server protocol, and was my first submitted patch and I was recommended to breakdown the patch into several sub-patches, which didn't make sense at all. Not having the patience to wait for an eventual approval by 2015 if lucky, I abandonned.

The problem in ReadDirectoryChangesW() is the following:

"1. move and rename of files and directories in a monitored directory are not notified 2. the current implementation allow to only get one change (FILE_NOTIFY_INFORMATION structure) at a time. No change is actually lost but the calling application using ReadDirectoryChangesW() expect to retrieve all changes since the last call. With the current implementation it would only get the first and would have to call ReadDirectoryChangesW() again to get the other. With this patch , it gets all notification (as many consecutive FILE_NOTIFY_INFORMATION structs) since the last call to ReadDirectoryChangesW().

These move operations are implemented by this patch and conform to what win32 does:

- Moving a directory or a file inside the monitored directory. A FILE_NOTIFY_INFORMATION structure with action FILE_ACTION_ADDED

is returned

- Moving a directory or a file out of the monitored directory. A FILE_NOTIFY_INFORMATION structure with action FILE_ACTION_REMOVED

is returned

- Renaming a directory or a file in the monitored directory. Two consecutive FILE_NOTIFY_INFORMATION structures with actions FILE_ACTION_RENAMED_OLD_NAME and FILE_ACTION_RENAMED_NEW_NAME are returned within the same reply. This can actually be done because issue 2

above is corrected."

The original patch addressing problems above can be found here:

http://bubbleguuum.free.fr/0001-server-implement-move-rename-change-notifica...

It would be great if a high profile wine developper would take on it, as this really needs to be fixed.

Hi,

Would simply applying this 3 year old patch still work or were there too many changes to the Wine server files to make it work at all?

Cheers

@Bazily Patch would need some bit of adaptation to be integrated into current wine I think. It already needed some last I looked, 1.5 years ago.

--- Comment #17 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,

this was fixed a long time ago in Wine 1.3 series.

* https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commitdiff/b614a15328b05d962c31b54b7e... ("server: Return multiple events in read_changes.")

* https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commitdiff/be5a757c7acaa83cd651e5e043... ("server: Don't report rename events when file is moved between directories.")

Part of Wine 1.3.12 release

Thanks Piotr.

The testing was done incorrectly (including myself in comment #7). The main UI (default playlist listview) won't show anything. You have to open 'Library' -> 'Album List' and keep watching there for folder content changes.
