In all these cases it's not so difficult to allow freewheeling. Jconvolver for example should not have problems with it even when using a number of lower-priority threads to do most of the work. Any convolution app using zita-convolver can do the same, it's just a boolean argument to process(). Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
