Fidelizer 7.3 released – Improved compatibility with Hysolid and hyper-threading

I’ve heard about Hysolid news for a while but I was too busy to test it until recently. After testing Hysolid software, I realized it runs as music server platform without frontend so it’ll run on startup. As a result, Fidelizer will treat Hysolid processes as non-audio affecting audio performance. Now I’ve improved compatibility with Hysolid software.

I also improved hyper-threading mechanisms to detect actual FPU cores instead of physical processors. In some architecture like AMD FX that I’m using, it works like hyper-threading with two processor cores sharing the same FPU unit. This should improve audio and system performance better for Fidelizer Plus/Pro.

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.

There’s some news about changes in repository platform. I received news about MediaFire Desktop being shutdown soon so I can’t maintain updating software like before. So I’ve merged repository with main website now. Due to certain limitations, I can’t host past versions so please forgive me if you’re troubled with this change.

Fidelizer review on Alpha Audio

This review was actually published months ago in late February 2016. Jaap Veenstra contacted me about using Fidelizer software in his audio workshop and I gave him Fidelizer Pro license for demonstration. I was too occupied by Fidelizer 7 development and forgot about publishing his result in website. Here’s what he says about Fidelizer Pro in his workshop.

We have, of course, with and without twisted Fidelizer. And the difference is just audible: more peace, more flexibility, more detail and a bigger, better focused stereo image. Undoubtedly a package that does a good job. And his money’s worth.

And here’s the original message in German.

We hebben natuurlijk mét en zonder Fidelizer gedraaid. En het verschil is gewoon goed hoorbaar: meer rust, meer souplesse, meer detail én een groter, beter gefocusseerd stereobeeld. Zonder twijfel een pakket dat zijn werk goed doet. En zijn geld waard is.

He also review other interesting software products like Kodi and foobar2000 on Windows 10. There’s also Daphile in his workshop too so be sure to check it out.

Fidelizer review on Quotidiano Audio

Quotidiano Audio is growing audiophile online media in Italy since 2012. This software review was written on 8th April 2016 but I discovered this review only recently so forgive me for not finding you sooner. This review is written in Italian so I’ll copy the translate core messages here.

Looking more specifically, Fidelizer Pro v7 reduces latency, improves the performance of the clock, optimizes MMCSS (Multimedia Class Scheduler Service), no island-sound processes on a single core, run the audio player software with the highest possible priority, optimizes the kernel timers and audio files priorities; Some of these performances are unique in their kind (= software competitors do not have all these features).

You can do all that manually intervening? Probably yes, but at costs of several sleepless nights and probably not with the same results.

And here’s the original message in Italian.

Andando più nello specifico, Fidelizer Pro v7 riduce la latenza, migliora le prestazioni del clock, ottimizza il MMCSS (Multimedia Class Scheduler Service),isola processi non-audio su un singolo core, lancia il software player audio con la priorità più alta possibile, ottimizza il timer del kernel e le priorità dei file audio; alcune di queste performance sono uniche nel loro genere (=software concorrenti non hanno tutte queste funzioni).

È possibile fare tutto ciò intervenendo manualmente? Probabilmente sì, ma a costi di diverse notti insonni e probabilmente non con gli stessi risultati.

The reviewer Massimo Garofalo is also the founder of Quotidiano Audio and is quite knowledgeable about computer audio so I recommend to read full review for better understanding about computer audio.

Fidelizer 7.2 released – Improved compatibility with Roon 1.2 Update and others

It’s been a month since releasing version 7.1 to public. I received some reports related to AirPlay stability issues so I did some investigation and found AirPlay is relying on Bonjour service. So, I added its process into audio category to fix this problem and hopefully it’ll work fine now.

Also, Roon 1.2 Update was released recently so I tested some new components and updated more Roon apps into audio category along with HQPlayer that is used by a few Roon users.
