VibeSDR 11 RC14 (541)

pre-release4 hours ago

VibeSDR for Android now lives at net.vibesdr.app only.

  • VibeSDR-11.0-RC14-541.apk — the app. All updates come here.
  • VibeSDR-legacy-11.0-RC5-531.apk — the final build of the old app (com.vibesdr.app), kept here so you can
    still get your bookmarks out: its VibeSDR has a new home notice has an EXPORT MY BOOKMARKS button; in the new
    app open the frequency card → BOOKMARKS → IMPORT. Then uninstall "VibeSDR (legacy)" — with both installed, Android
    has to choose which app gets a plugged-in SDR.

V11 Release Candidate 14

Decoders — measured on real off-air recordings, before and after

  • WEFAX: every chart's slant is measured from the chart itself, so it is straight on any radio; DDK's white border
    stays where it belongs, and a chart you join half way is cut in its border instead of wrapping; the status holds
    "receiving" through DDK's long steady tone; a lost line is filled from the one above.
  • NAVTEX: a new receiver based on fldigi's (43 of 43 messages on a two-hour test, against 33 before), and a message
    box — standing by, one message at a time with station, subject and how many characters were repaired or lost,
    SAVE as a text file, and PREV / LIVE like WEFAX.
  • Time signals: shrug off lightning, combine several weak minutes into one time, handle leap seconds, tell WWV
    from WWVH and show DUT1; the live line shows ?? instead of a wrong year while a minute is still unconfirmed.
  • RTTY: follows a drifting station.
  • SSTV: PD-50, PD-90 and Robot 72 decode properly; pictures whose start announcement was lost are found; a
    false start no longer swallows the next picture.
  • FT8: about 40 % more decodes, with extra passes only while the server has time to spare.

DAB

  • In DAB the tune control is always the ‹ › keys, one multiplex per press, with the multiplex shown above them.
  • A server set to start in DAB now does, and the station name clears from the display when you leave DAB.

Servers (VibeServer in the app)

  • A server with one channel per listener keeps your audio and decoder running while the app is in the background,
    and puts you back on your own frequency when you return.
  • Busy servers pace bursts of tuning so a small machine is never flooded.
  • An Airspy HF+, Airspy R2/Mini, HackRF or RTL dongle that hangs or is unplugged now recovers by itself when it comes
    back — or says plainly that it needs unplugging and plugging back in.
  • The admin page counts every CPU core a TV box has, not just the ones awake.

Everything else

  • The icon and the Now Playing art follow your colour (Control Customisation → ICON & ART); the home-screen icon
    changes when you leave the app.
  • Diagnostics now records an app crash (with private details removed) so it can be sent.
  • Long-press a chat message to hide that user for the rest of your visit.
  • A listed server's position is published as the centre of its grid square, as the privacy policy says.
