    I'll need to work on upgrading the app to support Flexlib 4.2. In the mean time I will add ability for the streamer to check for updates in the next release.

    Just released v0.1.10b (beta 10) with some minor cleanup and the automatic update check function.

    SmartStreamer4 v0.1.11b has been released. Within the app, press the check for updates button, or grab the lates from github: https://github.com/cdub89/SDR-IQ-Streamer/releases/tag/v0.1.11b

    Note: The next release will focus on testing and compatibility for SmartSDR 4.2.x. If there's enough interest I'll also try to include support for digital modes and WSJTx.

    v0.1.11b Highlights
    -Stabilizes CW Skimmer channel configuration with a calibration-first workflow based on a manually validated IQ1/Audio1 baseline.
    -Preserves operator audio endpoint corrections by writing channel INI audio settings only on first channel file creation.
    -Adds a Config-tab reset action for channel INI files, including a safety block when CW Skimmer is running.
    -Rebrands the application and metadata to SmartStreamer4 with publisher metadata set to ARS WX7V.

    Included Assets
    SmartStreamer4-v0.1.11b-win-x64.zip
    SHA256SUMS.txt
    Operator Notes
    After resetting channel config files, run CW Skimmer manually and verify Audio tab selections are calibrated to DAX IQ RX 1 and DAX Audio RX 1 before restarting normal automation.

    Hi Chris.

    I will load it tomorrow and test it out and advise.

    Dave WO2X - I did get a new version out quickly to support SmartSDR 4.2.x. I've got it running on two machines - one with v4.1.5 and the other at 4.2.18. Good luck and let me know how the set up and testing goes!

    I did a quick test and CW Skimmer showed panadapter center frequency but the slice and smiler were in sync only when slice was in the center of the panadapter. I may be missing a setting.

    Great job, Chris!

    Audio Device endpoint enumeration is still buggy so I'm working on a new design for the next beta release. I need to ensure the 4.1.5 DAX v1 support still works for MME and WDM, while also supporting the new enumeration model with DAX v2 for both MME and WDM. So 4 possible combinations to try and guess the right audio devices just for 1 stream. Then apply that from 1-4 streams!

    I'll continue to iterate thru the revised cw skimmer audio setup design. Progress will be tracked in the github issue 19.

    SmartStreamer4 v0.1.17b has been released this evening. Mostly bug fixes including a clean rewrite of the CW Skimmer sync path. Resolves the symptom where CW Skimmer needed a manual "jiggle" of the panadapter or slice frequency before it would start tracking after startup or band change.

    Also includes a new interactive Set Up Wizard to help accurately enumerate audio device end points (Config tab) and a revised Help Guide.
