VibeServer for macOS 11.0.6

VibeServer for macOS 11.0.6 — notarised by Apple. Unzip and drag VibeServer to Applications (it replaces 11.0.5 and keeps your settings).

• A radio another program is using now says so. If SDRconnect, SDR++ or another app on this Mac has the radio, the directory, the apps and the web page show it as "in use by another app" instead of a radio that looked free and then never started; the setup page tells you which radio it is, and VibeServer picks it up again by itself when the other app lets go.
• In the browser: game controllers reach the frequency box, mode and signal reading, and holding START (about a second) switches the controller layout.

• Shared listening: the passband follows the room. When one listener moves the passband, everyone else's sliders follow — in the browser and the apps. A mode change on the same frequency shows too.
• Its .local name answers iPhones, iPads and Macs reliably on a busy network.
• The setup page shows the settings as they are now, not as they were when the server started.

Everything since 11.0.3:

• In the browser: FM de-emphasis showed OFF to a new visitor while the server ran 50 µs. It now shows what the server runs, and de-emphasis and stereo follow the server when another listener changes them.
• The server now reports its de-emphasis and stereo, so apps show the real setting instead of the last one they saved.
• The band plan below medium wave is corrected (VLF/LF on CW 500 Hz, long wave AM 9/10 kHz, NAVTEX and beacons USB 500 Hz) — in the browser and the apps.

Everything since 11.0.2:

• The receiver spreads over the processor's cores, and the waterfall keeps its full frame rate.
• SDRplay RF gain no longer runs to maximum (and into overload) when the radio's own gain reading freezes — every step must show in the signal we measure, and a frozen climb is undone.
• Advanced RDS: left/right deviation meters read true on weak, noisy stations; healthy readings are green.
• A radio stopped just as a listener switches to DAB no longer hangs; an 8 s shutdown watchdog names anything stuck.
• In the browser: the frequency at the mouse pointer, snapped to the tuning step (menu: FREQUENCY AT POINTER).
• Connecting to OpenWebRX servers with their own HTTPS on port 8073 works again (Fixes #52).

VibeServer for macOS 11.0.2, 11.0.1 and 11.0

11.0.2

• RDS station names that scroll read cleanly on the served web page. Many US stations send the song title through the 8-character station name a few letters at a time: the line now shows the call letters until the name settles instead of a jumble of pieces, a scrolling name starts at the beginning of a word, and letters repeated from one frame to the next are no longer doubled.

11.0.1

• The owner can use the radio's own controls when the AGC is locked. With "Lock the AGC on" set, the Airspy HF+ attenuator, preamp and AGC switch (and the SDRplay and Airspy AGC switches) refused the owner even after the admin password, so they appeared to do nothing. Listeners are still held by the lock.
• Squelch works at every level. A threshold below -100 dBFS — where a quiet Airspy HF+ airband or SDRplay MW channel sits — used to read as "off", so auto squelch drew its line and never closed, and the bottom third of the squelch bar switched it off.
• VibeServer Portable Wi-Fi: a phone hotspot whose name was typed with a different apostrophe (iPhone: "’") is now found; switching to a phone hotspot from the box's own Wi-Fi works; the server's .local name answers on the box's own Wi-Fi (served setup page and Portable tools).

11.0 — the final V11 release: everything from the release candidates, plus, since RC42: RTTY on the served web page no longer prints the next word in figures when a short fade swallowed a shift (synop number groups still survive fades); the served web page's PORTABLE SERVER WI-FI menu hides itself on a pocket box whose Wi-Fi is switched off.
