6. Configuring the player for Kernel Streaming: some examples

6.1. FooBar

To use FooBar in KS mode it is necessary to download the DLL for Kernel Streaming from
the FooBar2000 website and install it in the Components sub-folder inside FooBar2000
main folder in your hard disk. The DLL can be found at

http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_ks

(click on Download). It is a zip

folder which contains the DLL. Extract it from the zip and copy to the Components folder.
Then, restart FooBar, go to the File/Preferences/Playback/Output window and set
parameters as in figure 15.

6.2. Winamp and MediaMonkey

These two players are actually the same player with different skins, so they can share the
same plug-ins. A freeware plug-in for Kernel Streaming by Steve Monks is available on the
Internet (

http://www.stevemonks.com/ksplugin/

) that can be used to enable Kernel

Streaming operation with these players.
Download the zip file, extract the dll file and copy it into the Plugins folder inside Winamp
main folder.
With hiFace Evo connected, right-click on Winamp and select Display/Select Plug-ins. The
Preferences window of Winamp will open (see figure 16).
