VibeServer Lite 11 B6 (11.0.0~b6) — the sixth beta of V11. Installs over B5 as an update (same signing key) and keeps your settings. Supersedes 11 B5.

New since B5

  • Decoders of your own. On a server where every listener has their own dial, each listener now runs their own decoder (RTTY, NAVTEX, weather fax, SSTV, time signals, FT8/FT4) on their own frequency. Before, the last listener to open a decoder took it over for everyone, and FT8 decoded the wrong audio.
  • A decoder limit the server sizes for itself. The first-run benchmark times every decoder on your hardware and sets how many can run at once; owners can change it (setup page, admin page, app). When it is full, a listener is told clearly ("All 8 decoder slots on this server are in use — try again shortly") instead of getting a broken decoder.

Fixed since B5

  • Every mode has a maximum width. A listener (or a faulty client) could ask for an enormous passband and make the server build a filter dozens of times too expensive, slowing it for everyone. Each mode now has a sensible ceiling, and the owner's bandwidth cap applies to every listener.
  • Wide FM widened back really is wide again — after narrowing and widening, the audio could stay narrower than the display showed.
  • Advanced RDS goes only to listeners who open it, and one listener opening or closing it never changes anything for another. Its measuring path is also about 10–15 % lighter, with every figure unchanged.
  • Listeners on a multi-dial radio get Opus audio again — some were sent uncompressed audio at eight times the bandwidth.
  • Quieter logs: repeated warnings (such as silent audio on a closed squelch) are logged when they start, once a minute while they last, and when they end — so the log keeps the evidence of a real fault.

Supported radios

  • RTL-SDR dongles (including the RTL-SDR Blog V3/V4)
  • Airspy HF+ (Discovery / Dual Port)
  • Airspy R2 / Mini
  • HackRF One (experimental)
  • SDRplay RSPs are not supported on Android — SDRplay's API does not exist for it (they work on the Linux VibeServer).

Requirements

  • Android 5.0 (Lollipop) or newer, 32-bit or 64-bit ARM (armeabi-v7a), a supported SDR and a USB OTG adapter/cable. Designed for about 1 GB of RAM.

Installing

  1. Download VibeServer-Lite-11.0.0-b6.apk below onto the device.
  2. Allow installs from your browser or file manager when Android asks ("Install unknown apps").
  3. Open it, plug in the SDR, and follow the setup.
