Introducing foobar2000 setup assistant, turning your computer into a streamer with a single click

After releasing Fidelizer 8.10 for a while, I noticed something about computer audio setup. It’s not easy to setup computer as a streamer for most people. Even Roon or Audirvana need some configuration to use Tidal / Qobuz and can be quite complicated for end user. foobar2000 is free to be downloaded and installed to use. But to…

Fidelizer 6.13 released – On-demand fixes and enhancements

Windows X — Wed, 06 Jan 2016 05:58:31 +0000

After releasing 6.12 for a while, I received reports about breaking some processes that require Task Scheduler like Process Lasso for an example. Process Lasso is one of famous audiophile tweaks so This won’t do. So I reverted the changes related to Task Scheduler for “EnableLUA = 0” customers. I also received another request to keep JPLAY clock settings other…

Fidelizer 6.12 released – Major fixes with process optimizations

Windows X — Tue, 08 Dec 2015 19:51:59 +0000

Lately I received more reports about playback issues with multi-core optimizations so I re-evaluated the core optimizations and realized that I left a critical bug there. In reserved process list, I accidently added one more space making the reserved process list not working properly. As a result, some audio processes got affected by this. I thought they worked before because…

Fidelizer 6.11 released – Fixing some user experience and security glitches

Windows X — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 10:27:22 +0000

It appeared I left some troublesome bugs for new users in 6.10 that doesn’t seem to work like Workstation on default configuration. Now I solved this issue for good. It doesn’t take too much time fixing it but I was occupied with other projects and only have time to finish 6.11 recently. I also aligned Security Center service to be…

Fidelizer 6.10 released – Improving user experience

Windows X — Thu, 17 Sep 2015 17:03:08 +0000

Next to version 6.9 should be 7.0? Too bad, I can’t leave my customers with unfinished business and here’s version 6.10 fixing some usability issues I found after previous update. In this version, “Customize” optimization level is now removed for better uses. I revised optimization level acting as preset instead so you can freely select options after choosing optimization level. Now JPLAY…

Fidelizer 6.9 released – Big maintenance update

Windows X — Fri, 21 Aug 2015 06:34:41 +0000

I said I’ll add option to support 15.6ms clock with JPLAY request but it took longer than expected with some other changes to improve. This version shouldn’t be sonically better than version 6.8 since most changes aren’t related to audio playback. But if you’re using JPLAY, it may improve JPLAY’s effectiveness because Fidelizer won’t touch JPLAY processes so it won’t…

Fidelizer 6.8 released – Best of both worlds

Windows X — Thu, 18 Jun 2015 07:59:51 +0000

Since releasing Fidelizer 6.7, I noticed there’re two types of computer audio setup. The first one is ordinary computer setup for better sound like most of normal people would. So Fidelizer 6.7 improves optimizations with consideration of common environment where security and user account control are working. For another type of computer audio setup, it does nothing but playing audio. No security…

Fidelizer 6.7 released – Some fixes with security and audio improvements

Windows X — Wed, 13 May 2015 07:59:34 +0000

After releasing version 6.6 for a while, I’ve been monitoring for issues to be fixed in next release. In these times, I received some mixed feelings comments of feedback from free Fidelizer users that need explanation here. Fidelizer is malicious software because I got backdoor trojan attacks after running Fidelizer in Extremist level so it’s not safe anymore. Dear…
