Release v3.7: device-change smoothing, auto-tune spike rejection, wider mic detector, forensic logging
Coalesce capture-engine rebuilds (CompositeCaptureBackend): a swap-triggering source change now arms a 250ms debounce timer and re-arms on each further change, so a flap or quick reconfiguration produces ONE rebuild to the final state instead of a burst (Andre's 16:40 four-rebuilds-in-33s crackle). In-place updates still apply immediately; a pending rebuild whose target flaps back is cancelled. Auto-tune (TickRoute) now keys off the SECOND-highest arrival-gap/render-gap second in the lookback window instead of the single worst, so a lone ~1s OS/driver stall no longer balloons the buffer to the 200ms cap (the 16:51 trim burst); sustained jitter still reacts at full speed. Logs both gap-max (true peak) and gap-used (value acted on). Mic-privacy detector widened: also catches a per-app Deny aimed at this exe under ConsentStore\microphone\NonPackaged\<exe>, the HKLM NonPackaged gate, and the Group-Policy/MDM force-deny (AppPrivacy LetAppsAccessMicrophone=2) — the block shapes that silence WASAPI capture while ASIO sails past, and that the old three-value check missed. Forensic instrumentation so the next log proves what happened: capPeak= (loudest pre-encode sample, per lane, on the diag line), mic-privacy verdict logged at startup, ui: capture tick/untick events, and device-event: lines for Windows endpoint changes. Docs: mic-privacy + auto-tune sections updated in readme.html, MANUAL.md regenerated, About-box changelog and RELEASE_NOTES for v3.7. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

<strong>If your microphone sends silence:</strong> Windows can block desktop apps from using the microphone, and when it does, RemSound's mic capture still switches on but only sends silence — so you look like you're sending, but the other person hears nothing. RemSound watches for this: when you tick a microphone in <strong>WASAPI inputs to send</strong> while Windows is blocking it — or load a profile that already has one ticked — a message pops up telling you, with the exact two settings to turn on — open Windows Settings → Privacy & security → Microphone, then turn on both <em>Microphone access</em> and <em>Let desktop apps access your microphone</em>. (ASIO inputs aren't affected, because ASIO talks straight to the hardware and bypasses that Windows privacy gate.) It doesn't change anything you receive — only sending your own mic.

The check also catches the sneakier kinds of block: one aimed at RemSound alone in that same Settings page's per-app list, and one set by an administrator or workplace policy — that last kind doesn't show up as a switch you can flip, so if the warning says a policy is involved, it needs whoever manages the computer to lift it.

<h3>Continuous auto-tune</h3>
|

<p>The <strong>Continuous auto-tune latency</strong> checkbox hands the latency value over to RemSound itself. When it's on, RemSound watches how evenly packets are arriving, every few seconds, and nudges the latency target up if it's seeing late packets, or down if the network has been calm. The companion <strong>Auto-tune latency interval (Alt+I)</strong> combo box sets how often it re-checks — <strong>3, 5, 10, 15, or 30 seconds</strong>. Faster values react quickly to a change in the network but can feel a bit twitchy. Think of continuous auto-tune as a hands-off way to keep the cushion the right size as your network changes through the session.</p>

When it's on, RemSound watches how evenly packets are arriving, every few seconds, and nudges the latency target up if it's seeing late packets, or down if the network has been calm. It deliberately ignores a single one-off stall — the kind a driver or Windows hiccup causes once and never again — and only raises the cushion when late audio keeps arriving, so one brief blip doesn't balloon your latency for the rest of the session.
