Download: Fidelizer – foobar2000 setup assistant 3.0

Recommended apps: BubbleuPNP, (Android), JPLAY (iOS), mConnect Player Lite (Android), mConnect Player Lite (iOS)

 

If you use legacy device that doesn’t support 24-bit, you can click on File > Preferences > Playback > Output > Devices and change Bits on “Primary Sound Driver” to 16. I considered changing default bits to 16 but that’d ruin most people’s experience with hires DAC in market right now.

You can select native ASIO output by clicking on File > Preferences > Playback > Output menu and select ASIO output device for your DAC. You can use recommended apps in mobile/tablet device to stream Tidal/Qobuz and music files in local network to FidelizerRenderer.

Re-enabling WMIC to keep Fidelizer working on Windows 11 version 24H2

After Microsoft released Windows 11 version 24H2 on 1st October 2024, I start getting reports about Fidelizer failing to generate the key or not working after updates. After investigation, it appeared Microsoft will remove WMIC after updating Windows 11 to version 24H2.

To resolve the incompatibility issue, user needs to re-enable WMIC feature again by opening command prompt as administrator and enter the following command below.

 

DISM /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:WMIC~~~~

 

This command will bring back WMIC and allow Fidelizer to work as designed again. If you have any question, please contact through support channel for assistance.

Fidelizer 8.11 released – Improved compatibility with Windows 11, processor with efficient cores, and MajiorityCamisole

 

Fidelizer Pro

 

Due to new changes in hardware and software, Windows 11 with new updates caused Teamviewer failing to work in Purist user level, Intel’s new generation processor with efficient cores messed up hyper-threading detection and have stability issues with some options.

To resolve this problem, I bought Intel’s latest generation NUC with efficient cores to test on Windows 11 environment and resolved reported issues now. Since efficient cores are counted as physical cores, hyper-threading detection algorithm was revised to handle these cases better.

Rather than assigning non-audio processes to logical cores, Fidelizer will assign cores to latter part of processors with efficient cores leaving more room to physical cores unless user chooses to force only one last core for non-audio process.

This version is tested in NUC PC with Windows 11 and client’s machines to make sure everything is working fine and MajiorityCamisole is also recognized by Fidelizer now. If you use Windows 11 or have processor with efficient cores, version 8.11 is highly recommended.

I got everything working! My network setup –

All on dedicated LPS. It really sounds great, the sound stage has more depth and everything is just more solid. Thank you.
