VibeSDR for Android now lives at net.vibesdr.app only.
- VibeSDR-11.0.8-586.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.
VibeSDR 11.0.8 — everything from 11.0.7 plus:
- OpenWebRX+ receivers: the DIGITAL / DECODERS list scrolls again, so all of a server's decoders can be reached, not just the first six (GitHub #53).
- MPX power in Advanced RDS reads in dBr, as MPX meters show it: it is relative to the broadcast limit (BS.412), so 0 is the limit and a figure below it is within it — not a fault.
In VibeServer inside VibeSDR, and every web page it serves:
- A server can no longer be stopped from starting by its own bookmark list. A station name with a stray backslash or quote in it — easily picked up from a weak RDS signal — doubled in size every time the list was saved, until one server's list reached 134 MB and took longer to load than anyone would wait. Names now load back exactly as saved, the list loads in one pass, and it has a size it cannot pass: at most 1,000 stations learned from RDS and DAB (the longest unheard go first) and 21,000 in all. Bookmarks you saved yourself are never removed. A list that is already oversized is set aside, not deleted.
- Web page, game controllers: the sticks tune like a drum. A slow, careful turn moves one step at a time so you stop on the signal; a fast spin covers the band quickly.
VibeSDR 11.0.7 — everything from 11.0.6 plus (in VibeServer inside VibeSDR, and every web page it serves):
- Web page, game controllers: the decoder box works the way it does in the app. Move the highlight onto the box and press enter: it takes the D-pad — up and down through the DAB stations or the decoder's text, left and right to its buttons, enter to pick — and back hands the controls back to the radio. On DAB the box takes the D-pad by itself, since the station list is how you tune.
- The server admin panel works with a controller, and back closes it.
VibeSDR 11.0.6 — everything from 11.0.5 plus:
- A radio another program is using now says so. If OpenWebRX, SDR++ or rtl_tcp has the radio on a server's computer, the server list shows that radio as "in use by another app" instead of a radio that looked free and then never started. VibeServer now notices this on SDRplay RSPs too, and picks the radio up again by itself when the other program lets go.
- Servers with a locked centre frequency: the app no longer tunes past the edge of what the receiver covers. Typing a frequency outside it now says "This receiver covers … MHz" instead of tuning somewhere you could not hear.
- VibeServer for Linux (apt 11.0.6): installs on Ubuntu 22.04, needs nothing else besides FFmpeg for DAB+, installs or updates with one line —
curl -fsSL https://apt.vibesdr.net/install.sh | sudo bash— and runs lighter on old Atom netbooks.
