<p>178.74.41.22: &#039;they&#039; rather than &#039;s/he&#039; as non-binary inclusive language use.</p> <hr /> <div>'''Seek (foo_seek)''', developed by Hydrogenaudio user ''grimes'', is a component that offers different ways of seeking inside one or more tracks.<br /> <br /> ==Features==<br /> <br /> The component provides three features:<br /> <br /> '''Preview'''&lt;br /&gt;<br /> Seek lets the user play their tracks as previews, whose length can be chosen in the options from several lengths (in seconds); there is also a default length defined in the preferences. Therefore, in contrast to [[Foobar2000:Components/Preview (foo preview)|foo_preview]], the user can quickly change the preview length on-the-fly whilst listening to the previews. Furthermore, the user has the option to begin the preview from a given point where they have clicked or dragged the seekbar, rather than from a fixed point.<br /> <br /> '''Fast Forward/Rewind'''&lt;br /&gt;<br /> This feature imitates the behaviour of seeking inside an analogue tape: a part of the track is played, then the playback jumps to a position further ahead or behind to play another part, and so on. The periods for both playback time and moving forward/backward are definable in Seek’s preferences.<br /> <br /> '''Loop'''&lt;br /&gt;<br /> Here the user can create a loop, whose length is again selectable in foo_seek’s preferences. Also, they can change the looped part of a track simply by dragging the seekbar. The preferences offer the option to start the loop in the next track either on a fixed point, or from a point where the user has clicked or dropped the seekbar. In the latter case, the user is able to compare the same part of a piece of music between different versions: by simply pressing the Next button, the loop repeats between the same time-points as for the previous track. Last but not least, there is a mode that offers a '''Repeat A–B''' functionality.<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=88654 foo_seek.dll] at Hydrogenaudio forums<br /> * [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=89964 q_stankovic’s topic], upon which this article is based</div>
