There's certainly a problem with this line:

Command line: "C:\"Program Files"\lossyWAV.exe" /d /c c:\"program files"\bin\lossywav - --standard --silent

You're telling foobar2000 to look in two places for lossyWAV at once:

Replace:

Code: [Select]
"C:\"Program Files"\lossyWAV.exe" /d /c c:\"program files"\bin\lossywav - --standard --silent --stdout|


with:

Code: [Select]
/d /c C:\"Program Files"\lossywav - --standard --silent --stdout|


From the wiki:
Quote
Encoder: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
Extension : lossy.wv
Parameters: /d /c C:\"Program Files"\bin\lossywav - --standard --silent --stdout|
            C:\"Program Files"\bin\wavpack -hm --blocksize=512 --merge-blocks -i - %d
Format is : lossless or hybrid
Highest BPS mode supported: 24


C.
PC = TAK + LossyWAV  ::  Portable = Opus (130)

By the way, flac -5 usually compresses lossywav'ed files better than wavpack.

There should be a pointer to the Wavpack executable after "--stdout|" and before "-hm" - at the moment there is no reference to Wavpack!
lossyWAV -q X -a 4 -s h -A --feedback 2 --limit 15848 --scale 0.5 | FLAC -5 -e -p -b 512 -P=4096 -S- (having set foobar to output 24-bit PCM; scaling by 0.5 gives the ANS headroom to work)
