Release v4.7: keep trying your configured peer after a reboot (#15)
Removes the heartbeat "adopt a live address" feature (added v1.6). On a LAN with more than one RemSound machine it could latch a receiver onto an unrelated sender that happened to be pinging the audio port — then never recover to the real peer, needing a manual restart (the singer's #15, with log). The feature guessed peer identity from an untracked ping source with no way to verify it was the same peer; on the stable VPN/LAN addresses RemSound is actually used with, it only ever caused harm, since same-address reconnect already works via the continuous heartbeat. Removed TryAdoptLiveHeartbeatAddress + IsPrivateLanAddress (MainForm) and GetUntrackedPingSources + recentPingSources (HeartbeatService); the identity-safe discovery-based following (by verified peer ID) stays. Manual troubleshooting entry rewritten to match. Also bundles the held changes since v4.6: status reads line-by-line with GB totals and double-press-to-copy, CPU/memory in the status, the Install Scripts folder, and the what's-new-after-failed-update fix. Version 4.7; About + RELEASE_NOTES updated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

### A peer rebooted or changed address and the sound didn't come back
|
||||
|
||||
RemSound follows a peer to its new address on its own. If the address you connected to stops responding but the same peer is still reaching you from a different address on your network — because they rebooted onto a new address, for example — RemSound re-points to the live address within a few seconds and the sound resumes without you doing anything. If it doesn't recover, the peer is genuinely unreachable (off, asleep, or a firewall is blocking the new path).
|
||||
RemSound keeps trying the address you connected to, so when a peer comes back at the same address — the usual case after a reboot — the sound returns on its own within a few seconds, with nothing for you to do. If the peer comes back at a _different_ address (a new DHCP lease, say), reconnect to it: pick it again from **Discovered peers** , or enter its new address with **Add peer by IP** (Connectivity tab, Alt+A). If the sound still doesn't return, the peer is genuinely unreachable — off, asleep, or a firewall is blocking the path.
