Fidelizer 8.3 released – Improved hardware key’s compatibility on dual boot and Windows Update, AudiophileRenderer and JPLAY Femto support, and 32-core AMD Ryzen Threadripper fix

 

Fidelizer Pro

 

Hello everyone. After releasing version 8.2, I spent most of my time fixing the remaining issues with fidelizer.key generation algorithm. I’m truly sorry for the trouble all these times but version 8.3 will have full coverage of fidelizer key data fixes now.

In this release, the older keys you got before will still work as long as associated hardware is still present. This will fix issues with Windows Update and different hardware device order issues on dual boot for good.

While fixing the key generation algorithm, I also realized the root cause with Windows Server in core mode. The reason is fidelizer as a shell may run before important services sometimes and I made sure they’ll run properly now.

I also fixed 32-core processor bug issue that happen after releasing version 8.2 too. This issue has been fixed internally for a long while because it breaks functionality and I’m glad to see it’s officially addressed and resolved in 8.3.

Download: Fidelizer 8.3
Upgrade: Fidelizer Upgrade Program

 

Fidelizer Plus/Pro users should be received a mail about update and download link by now. If you somehow didn’t receive an update notification as I received some delivery failure message too, please contact me for an update with your customer data to verify.

 

Last month I found a rare gem called Audiophile uPNP Renderer. It’s true audiophile uPNP streaming platform playing only FLAC/WAV/AIFF format. It sounds really good for free software. Sadly, it doesn’t support DSD and ASIO but you can mix with VST too.

I also added new applications into compatibility list including new JPLAY Femto release and some new apps requested from clients. Windows 10 updates that have more processes related to audio performance will be handled properly now too. 🙂

 

Fidelizer Pro purchase options bugs are now fixed

After ending 3,300th purchase offer campaign. I wondered why people kept ordering Plus version and not a single person bought Pro version recently. Today I received a message from client saying he can’t purchase Pro version today. It seems WordPress auto text correction bug strikes again.

Now I’ve fixed Fidelizer Pro purchase options and you should be able to purchase Fidelizer Pro license and other upgrade options as before. If you purchase Fidelizer Plus recently and want to upgrade to Pro version, you can purchase “From Plus to Pro” option at $30 USD in Fidelizer Pro’s section.

I’m truly sorry for this bug to happen again. I wonder if it’s possible to disable auto text correction feature in editor. I tried to change in text mode only every time now but sometimes it still cut options in form.

Fidelizer Nimitra Firmware 3.0 Update and purchase offers for 3,200th license

 

Nimitra Firmware 3.0 Updater

 

And now we reached 3,200th milestone. As a reminder to inform customers that they receive refund for returning customer purchase, I’m running purchase offer again in this week.  I also sent partial refund back for customer who placed an order on 2nd September 2018.

 

Fidelizer Plus: US $39.95 —> $34.95 (Expired)
Fidelizer Pro: US $69.95 —> $59.95 (Expired)

 

This offer will last until 2nd September 2018. Discount rate is the same as purchasing Fidelizer software again so new customer and returning customer will get the same price. You may order again anytime and receive partial-refund as discount later after this campaign is over.

 

I also finished  a new firmware update for Nimitra/NimitraS Computer Audio Server. Firmware 3.0 comes with changes and adjustments through the year with the following updates:

 

-Added JRiver integration support with Nimitra optimizations
-Added MinimServer integration support
-Added sound notification whenever connection is established
-Fixed JRiver library update not removing removed files
-Fixed Windows 10 forcing Windows Update through hidden protocols
-Improved Asset uPNP database re-initialization compatibility
-Improved over all sound quality optimizations and 64-bit audio performance
-Upgraded HQPlayer NAA software and compatibility with both x86/x64

 

Nimitra will receive significant sound quality improvement tuned specially for Nimitra device after Fidelizer 8 release. This optimization is completely separated from Fidelizer 8 optimizations making 64-bit version sounding better too.

Nimitra also handled the case of some USB DAC using its own power supply and when Nimitra can’t recognize audio output after turning on before DAC. Whenever audio output is recognized, Nimitra will re-initialize audio services and notify to fix this case for JPLAY.

After offering JRiver option in Nimitra, I started working on JRiver integration with auto library update similar to Asset uPNP. All drives will be scanned in JRiver also with Fidelizer optimizations in JRiver software including Fidelizer WebRemote UI.

For customers preferring MinimServer with JPLAY for DSD128 support, Nimitra also support MinimServer as part of Nimitra platform now including library auto update feature.

Some customers may see Windows 10 being pushed with Windows Update since last year. It took me a long while to completely disable Windows Update enforcement in Nimitra. If you accidently updated Windows 10 platform before, you can rollback and apply this update to disable Windows Update enforcement.

Nimitra/NimitraS customers can send request for firmware update and I’ll update Nimitra firmware through Teamviewer or request download link for applying update manually. If you already upgraded Windows 10 and can’t rollback, you can Nimitra back for reinstallation or possibly NimitraS upgrade too.

 

I hope this will be good chance for you to consider upgrading Fidelizer software and happy listening. 🙂

Fidelizer 8.2 released – Introducing multiple media player applications and resolve adding new network card

 

Fidelizer Pro

 

I promised before to release upcoming version with multiple media player application feature making setup like Roon/HQPlayer becoming much easier to implement. Now it’s finally here.

It took me a long while to implement this feature due to designing user experience and fixing glitches in UI changes. I need to make a lot of changes to make things work as designed.

Also, I received more requests about fidelizer.key being changed after installing new JCAT NET Card Femto. I made some adjustments to fidelizer.key generation so it won’t change the key after adding new card.

 

Changelog for version 8.2

Free
-Added additional page for media player application supporting up to 3 apps
-Improved core optimizations reliability

Plus
-Added additional page for media player application supporting up to 3 apps
-Improved core optimizations reliability

Pro
-Added additional page for media player application supporting up to 3 apps
-Improved core optimizations reliability
-Restricting network speed and force direct memory access will only apply to Audio Player/Renderer audio profiles

 

Download: Fidelizer 8.2
Upgrade: Fidelizer Upgrade Program

 

It took a while to properly resolving the case of changes in hardware key generation and I needed to fix 8.2 release and send again so I can officially release it today after confirming. This is the first release with multiple media player applications support and I’ll polish this feature better in future.
