  • Auto select default device if the preferred device is not present or hasn't been set
Minor changes and bug fixes:
  • Show menu automatically on first load
  • Uncheck "Use Maximum Device Buffer Size" by default
  • Add log message for CPU overload
  • Fix potential crash on 32-bit systems when the buffer size is too big
  • Fix distortion on certain devices (ex: EMU-0404)
  • Fix gapless playback problem on nuForce Icon HD
  • Fix attempting to upsample over the maximum supported rate (192 kHz)
  • Fix crash on complex DACs
  • Fix sample rate read incorrectly on certain files

Thanks to Larry from Light Harmonic for the test device that allowed me to fix Integer Mode problems on the DaVinci DAC.
