Test suite: add --config-dir isolation, --smoke-test alias, and a cold-start/close gate step
Adopted from Andre's RemSound-smoke-test-agent-brief.md - the gaps our pack didn't already cover: - --config-dir <folder>: redirect ALL user state (config, profiles, logs, cue sounds) to an explicit folder for this process only, applied at the very start of Program.Main before the layout migration runs. Lets a test exercise a real build without touching the user's live settings (the brief's safety rule 1). Works with every command. AppConfig gains SetUserDataDirectoryOverride / an override on UserDataDirectory; CommandLine.TryGetConfigDir parses it early. - --smoke-test / --smoketest: alias for --selftest, matching the brief's vocabulary. - run-tests.ps1: a cold-start + clean-close smoke (brief baseline steps 3-4) - launches the GUI minimized against an isolated --config-dir, confirms it stays up, that it used the isolated folder (real settings untouched), and that --close shuts it down with no orphan process. SKIPs cleanly if a RemSound instance is already running (machine-wide single-instance lock). Manual + --help updated for both switches. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Add build-and-test suite (in-app self-test + publish gate); fix release-zip missing sounds
The test suite, modelled on Andre's Sensor Readout (an in-app self-test + a build script), runnable as one step before every publish. Part 1 - in-app multi-step self-test (SelfTest.cs), run by --selftest: audio round-trip (PCM + Opus over localhost, dedicated test port so it never clashes with a running instance), encryption right/wrong-password + fingerprint, packet framing + malformed rejection, client<->server wire-format compatibility, settings save/reload, profile save/reload (temp folder), diagnostics-report privacy (never leaks a password), and bundled-resources present. Each step is timed and reported PASS/FAIL/SKIP; exit 0 only if nothing failed. Replaces the old single-shot --selftest. RunDiagnostics refactored to expose BuildDiagnosticsReport(AppConfig) for the privacy step. Part 2 - run-tests.ps1: builds, then checks the package (sounds, readme, native opus, framework-dependent, dll version == csproj), the About-box changelog, the client/server wire contract (relay magic/version/port still match RemPacket), the CLI surface, and runs --selftest. build-release.ps1 now runs this gate first and aborts the release if it fails. Bug caught + fixed: the published release zip carried ZERO cue sounds (startup sound + connect/disconnect/etc.) - MSBuild's incremental Content-copy marker skipped sounds\ on a fresh publish. Added an AfterTargets=Publish copy in the csproj that lands every cue WAV in the published sounds\ folder regardless of the marker. Verified: a staging publish now contains all 9 cue WAVs. Manual/help: --selftest description updated (readme.html + MANUAL.md). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Release v3.9: silent-mic fix, buffer drain, idle-send guard, start-up sound, command-line
- Receiver: a plain (Mixed) stream now renders on an active lane when the
receiver is in two-lane (ASIO) mode, instead of being decoded into a ring
nothing reads. Fixes one-way silence ("my mic works for me but not for them").
- Receiver: drift resampler gains a buffer-depth correction term so a bloated
standing buffer eases back to the latency target over a long session.
- App: don't send audio until a peer is genuinely reachable (issue #8); status
no longer shows phantom send traffic with nobody connected.
- App: start-up cue sound (machine-wide toggle + custom path in Preferences).
- App: command-line options (CommandLine.cs) -- --devices, --selftest,
--diagnostics, --log, --close, --profile, --connect, --minimized, --version,
--help. New "Command-line options" manual section (readme.html + MANUAL.md).
- Version 3.9; About-dialog and RELEASE_NOTES updated.

Release v3.8: New profile (blank template renamed), password-mismatch warning stays up, IP-pinning docs
New profile: a File-menu item + Ctrl+N that loads a fresh blank template as a new unsaved session via a LoadBlankTemplateNext handoff to Program.cs's relaunch loop — reachable even when "start with a specific profile" boots past the picker (issue #6). Offers to save the current profile first if dirty; deliberately silent (no profile-switch cue). Renamed the user-facing "blank template" to "New profile": the picker's synthetic entry (now a distinct marker TYPE, collision-safe against a real profile named "New profile"), the window title ("RemSound — New profile"), and the manual. Fixed the password-mismatch warning flashing away: it's raised from the 1 Hz statusTimer, which kept firing into the modal loop and rebuilt the peer lists (SyncAllPeerLists) under the dialog, knocking it out of the foreground. Now the tick is frozen while it's up, it's routed through ForegroundDialog, and a re-entry guard ensures one warning that stays put. Audited: it was the only popup raised from a recurring timer. Docs: manual section "Connecting to one specific IP address (and only that one)" explaining by-name vs by-fixed-IP and that a profile saves the exact address (issue #7 — functionality already existed); About box + RELEASE_NOTES for v3.8; MANUAL.md regenerated.

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> |

Release v3.6: rebuild the self-updater (in-app, rollback-safe); warnings to front
Replace the generated cmd.exe + robocopy update helper — which silently
failed on some machines — with an in-app C# installer:
* Stage the new version to a per-user temp folder off the install and run
the new RemSound.exe from there, so nothing in the install is locked by
the updater itself.
* Wait for the old process to fully exit (real WaitForExit), then
back-up-and-swap files in C# with retry + rename-aside; roll the install
back to the previous version on any failure, so a failed update can never
leave a half-installed RemSound.
* Log every step to updater.log; clean up old stages and legacy batch
artefacts on launch. Removed the old BuildInstallScript batch generator.
Route the "RemSound is already running" dialog and its follow-up message
through ForegroundDialog so they surface in front from a background-relaunched
copy, matching the earlier post-update fix.
Docs: rewrite the readme update sections for the new mechanism, regenerate
MANUAL.md, refresh the About-box changelog and RELEASE_NOTES.

Release v3.5: USB-card recovery, per-card adaptive buffer, one user folder, audit fixes
- Recover an unplugged/replugged output sound card automatically (issue #5): detect the dead WASAPI device and remember the receive-output selection so it re-ticks and re-opens when the card returns. - Adaptive per-card WASAPI buffer target sized to each card's pull chunk, held stable so it never flits about under CPU/network load. - Consolidate all per-user data (config, profiles, logs, sounds) into one "user settings and logs" folder; migrate every older layout; exclude it from the updater so custom cue sounds now survive updates. - Mic-privacy detector: warn once when a Windows-blocked mic is switched on, or a profile loads with one already on. - All warning/notice dialogs now come to the foreground even when minimised. - Apply volume + mute on profile load (were saved but not restored). - Crash-safe (atomic) profile/config saves. - Fix two resource leaks (push-mode capture MMDevice; UPnP DeviceFound handler). - Remove dead code (baseline-diff machinery, dead ASIO probes, no-op stubs). - Docs: readme.html, MANUAL.md, About-box changelog and release notes for v3.5.

v3.4: handle-leak fix, Realtek ASIO block, device notifications, quick profile switch, hotkey announcements
Freezes the v3.4 feature set (everything since the v3.3 public release): - Fix the receiver handle leak: the 3-second device-refresh timer reopened the configured ASIO driver every tick, and Realtek's ASIO driver leaks Event+Mutant handles on every open. Cache the ASIO probe per driver so it is opened once. - Realtek ASIO block: detect a Realtek ASIO driver, offer once to disable it, and never touch it again if disabled; Options-menu toggle to reverse. Global config. - Device hot-plug is event-driven (AudioDeviceChangeNotifier) instead of a 3s poll; debounced refresh, falls back to polling if registration fails. - Quick profile switch: new global hotkey opens an NVDA-friendly popup of all profiles (current marked); Enter/click switches; plays a new "profile menu open" cue with Preferences mute + custom-sound. - Announce assigned global hotkeys on the controls/menu items they drive (NVDA reads "press X anywhere"). File > Open already had Ctrl+O. - Held-back changes folded in: config-folder migration, codec-column fix, Tailscale endpoint network-prune, empty-password guard, and the handle-leak diagnostics (ProcessSelfMeter, HandleTypeProbe). Version bumped to 3.4.0. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Release v3.3: end-to-end encrypted audio, plus cue and reliability fixes
Headline: all audio is now encrypted (AES-256-GCM), keyed by a per-profile password. Mandatory — v3.3 only interoperates with v3.3+. Encryption - RemSoundCrypto (Core): PBKDF2 key derivation, AES-GCM encrypt/decrypt (low-alloc, into-span), password fingerprint, light on-disk obfuscation. - Wire: SenderLane encrypts the audio payload (PCM split across parts when the +28 overhead crosses MTU); AudioReceiver/StreamSession decrypt via a shared single-thread AudioDecryptor. Fingerprint piggybacks on the Format packet (offset 36, backward-compatible) so a peer can detect a password mismatch. - Profile.Password (scrambled), carried through BuildCurrentProfile; MainForm derives + pushes the key/fingerprint to sender + receiver (RecomputeAudioCrypto). - UX: ask-for-password on profile create; File -> Change this profile's password (ProfilePasswordDialog); Options -> Profile passwords (manager); a gate that prompts before streaming without a password; and a clear "passwords don't match" / "peer needs to update" message driven by the fingerprint. Cue fixes - CuePlayer (NAudio) replaces System.Media.SoundPlayer, which silently failed on the 96 kHz/24-bit cue WAVs (and any custom file) — cues now play reliably, resampled to 48 kHz/16-bit. Also fixes the Preferences preview button. - Connect/disconnect cues now audio-gated with hysteresis: connected when audio flows OR heartbeat healthy; lost only when audio stops AND heartbeat unreachable. Kills false disconnects and the receive-only "no cues" case. - Honest cue logging (played / muted / not loaded). Smaller - Endpoint stickiness: keep the audio target pinned to the heartbeat-proven address instead of chasing a multi-homed peer's other (unreachable) address. - "Online/offline" label now audio+heartbeat aware, not discovery-only. - "Show what's new after each update" preference (on by default). Docs: About v3.3 block, RELEASE_NOTES, README (encryption as a headline), manual section 12 "Passwords and encryption" (+ renumber), MANUAL.md regenerated. Version 3.2.0 -> 3.3.0.

Release v3.2: update sound cue + single-instance bring-to-front fix
- New "Update sound" cue (CueId.Update / update.wav). Plays just before an
update starts installing, on every path (manual, background-silent,
startup-silent), so a silent background update gives an audible heads-up
before RemSound closes to restart. Per-profile mute + custom-sound override
in Preferences, same infrastructure as the other cues:
* Profile.EnableUpdateCue + RemSoundSettingsStore Load/Save + round-trip
* MainForm updateSound field, TryLoadCueSound, play in InstallUpdateAsync
gated by LoadEnableUpdateCue
* PreferencesDialog "Update sound" CueRow + ResolveCueFilePath mapping
* update.wav shipped in sounds\ via csproj Content
- Single-instance "switch to the running copy" now actually brings the window
to the front. The second copy grants the running copy foreground rights via
AllowSetForegroundWindow before signalling, and lingers briefly so it can
raise itself before we exit — without this, Windows' foreground lock left
the running window only flashing in the taskbar (Ed's report).
- Docs: About box v3.2 block, RELEASE_NOTES.md, manual cue section (now seven
cues, with the update cue described), MANUAL.md regenerated.
- Version bumped 3.1.3 -> 3.2.0.

Bump to v3.1.3: single-instance lock + update/read-only reliability fixes
Fixes the chained-fault runaway Andre hit after an update (multiple copies
stacking, audio climbing to deafening, terminal kill to recover).
- Single-instance lock (SingleInstanceCoordinator + SingleInstanceDialog,
wired in Program.Main). A named mutex makes two copies impossible. A second
launch offers: switch to the running copy (default; surfaces it from the
tray via a named activation event), or force the running copy closed and
start fresh (Process.Kill, retried elevated if the target is elevated).
This is the structural fix that makes the stacking runaway impossible.
- Prompt-free update exit. InstallUpdateAsync sets updatingInProgress before
Application.Exit(); the close path's skipPrompt now honours it, so no
unsaved-changes dialog (whose default button is Cancel) can abort the
update's restart.
- Read-only persistence fix. BuildCurrentProfile now carries
currentProfileReadOnly into the saved snapshot. Previously a deliberate
save of a locked profile wrote ReadOnly=false, silently unlocking it on
disk — which re-armed the save prompt that then blocked the update.
- In-process double-install guard. updateInstallStarted stops the ~4 s
startup check and the background poll both staging an install + helper.
- Docs: About box, RELEASE_NOTES.md, readme.html + MANUAL.md ("Only one copy
of RemSound runs at a time").

Bump to v3.1.2: tray icon re-stamps on state change, recording shows as a flag
- Tray icon now re-registers itself (hide+re-show) whenever the meaningful
state changes — peer connect/drop, send/receive toggle, recording
start/stop — so the name a screen reader announces stays in step with
the live state. Fixes the persistent "no peers" then "1 peer" double
announcement that the old "show window then minimise again" trick used
to clear by hand. Same root cause as the v3.1.1 stuck-tooltip fix, just
exposed when the state changes a moment after the icon appears.
- Recording shows as a plain "recording" flag in the tray rather than a
live timer. A ticking timer would have either flickered the icon once a
second or left a screen reader announcing a stale time next to the live
one. Removed the now-dead FormatRecordingElapsed helper.
- Bundles the earlier Win7 updater fix (

Bump to v3.1.0: new audio cues (save, profile-switch), per-profile custom cue paths, redesigned tray menu
Two new cues join the existing connect / disconnect / record-start /
record-stop set:
* profile-save cue (sounds\save.wav by default) fires in
SaveProfileTo after a successful Save or Save As. Honours the
Profile.EnableSaveCue per-profile flag.
* profile-switch cue (sounds\profile.wav by default) fires in the
MainForm Shown handler after a profile finishes loading - covers
both startup-with-profile and mid-session profile switches.
Honours the Profile.EnableProfileSwitchCue flag. Because cue
loading runs AFTER settings.ApplyProfile in the ctor (line 542),
the profile being entered determines which sound plays - not the
one being left, exactly as Ed asked.
The audio cue UI in PreferencesDialog stays as a CheckedListBox (up /
down navigates, Space toggles) with TWO action buttons below that
operate on whichever cue is selected:
* Play [cue name] (Alt+P) - previews via SoundPlayer.Play on the
resolved path (custom override if set, default in sounds\
otherwise). Independent of the tick state.
* Browse for [cue name]... (Alt+B) - opens a WAV picker. If the
user picks a file inside RemSound's own sounds\ folder, it's
treated as "use default" and the override is cleared - avoids
pinning the user to a specific shipped default that a future
release might replace. Right-click "Use default sound" reverts.
Custom cue paths AND enable flags are per-profile. Lives on
Profile.CustomCuePaths (Dictionary<string,string>) and the per-cue
EnableXxxCue bool? properties. Cache mirror in
RemSoundSettingsStore.Settings.
All default WAVs moved from the install-root flat layout into a
sounds\ subfolder (csproj Content rules updated). save.wav and
profile.wav are bundled defaults.
Tray menu rewritten (MainFormTrayController) per Ed's spec:
* Show RemSound (W) - now uses Win32 SetForegroundWindow after the
standard Activate() because WinForms Activate is blocked by the
foreground-lock when invoked from a tray-menu click, which left
screen-reader users having to Alt+Tab to reach the restored
window.
* Enable sending (S) / Enable receiving (R) - tickable, reflect
current state, TOGGLE rather than always-on.
* Profiles (P) - submenu populated from AppConfig.RecentProfiles
with the same &1..&5 mnemonics the File menu uses. Pre-populated
once at construction so WinForms recognises it as a submenu and
fires DropDownOpening - originally I relied entirely on the
open event, which the framework skipped for items with no
DropDownItems, producing the "Profiles does nothing" bug.
* Exit (X).
Tray tooltip now built dynamically from snapshot tick (1 Hz):
"RemSound - [recording for MM:SS,] N peer(s), sending (lane),
receiving (lane)". Recording timer only included while
RecordingController.IsRecording is true (added
RecordingStartedUtc accessor for the elapsed calculation). Lane is
derived from which device-list ticks are active, not just the audio-
mode setting, so a BothIndependent user with only WASAPI inputs ticked
honestly reads as "sending (WASAPI)".
Fixes:
* Initial tooltip "RemSound" produced a "RemSound RemSound" read on
NVDA because the process name and tooltip matched. Set to
"RemSound - starting up" so the duplicate disappears.
* Recent profile menu items no longer carry a "Recent profile N:"
AccessibleName prefix in either the tray submenu or the File
menu's Recent profiles - now just the profile name. Number-key
mnemonics (&1..&5) untouched.
Manual (readme.html) updated: new section 17 "Audio cue sounds"
documents all six cues, the Play/Browse buttons, the right-click
"Use default sound", and the per-profile semantics. Sections 17-21
renumbered to 18-22. New "System tray icon and its menu" subsection
inside section 4 documents the redesigned right-click menu and the
hover tooltip. MANUAL.md regenerated via sync-manual.py. About box
gets a v3.1 block at the top. RELEASE_NOTES.md fully rewritten for
v3.1.
No wire format change - v3.1 talks to other v3.0.x machines exactly
as before.

Bump to v3.0.0: Opus live latency, codec rename, profile-resume after update, save-through-lock
* New "Opus, live latency" codec mode: 2.5 ms frames (120 samples/ch at 48 kHz)
via the float-input encode path. End-to-end codec delay drops to ~5 ms (vs
~12.5 ms at standard 10 ms Opus). Test on LAN: 400 pps/lane, zero missed /
reordered / duplicate packets, ~15 ms one-way saved end-to-end.
* Wire-format change: AudioFormatInfo.FrameDurationMilliseconds renamed to
FrameSamplesPerChannel (int sample-count at announced sample rate). Removes
the lossy 48000*ms/1000 conversion that couldn't represent 2.5 ms. v3 <-> v3
exact; v3 <-> v2 still passes audio (Opus decoder is self-describing from
packet TOC) but v2 side over-sizes its buffer wildly. v2.x profiles auto-
migrate via <120 sentinel rule in RemSoundSettingsStore (anything below 120
is treated as legacy ms and multiplied by 48). Profile JSON key kept as
OpusFrameMilliseconds via [JsonPropertyName] so old profile files still load.
* Codec dropdown rebuilt with use-case names: "PCM 48K 24 bit - uncompressed",
"Opus, broadcast quality - loss tolerant", "Opus, live latency - for jamming
and monitoring". Middle 10 ms option retired; saved 480-sample profiles
collapse to broadcast quality (safer-side default).
* Profile auto-resume after self-update: RemSoundUpdater writes a one-shot
_resume-after-update.txt sentinel containing the active profile title before
exit; Program.Main reads + deletes it on next start and silently loads that
profile, skipping the picker. Helper batch's robocopy /XF excludes the
sentinel and the failure-branch cleans it up if the install aborts. Falls
through to normal startup behaviour (StartWithProfileTitle or picker) if the
sentinel is missing, empty, or names a profile that no longer exists.
* Read-only profile saves now go through on explicit Ctrl+S / File -> Save
with a one-time TaskDialog warning ("Save anyway" / "Cancel" + Do-not-show-
again). Lock continues to suppress the automatic unsaved-changes prompt on
close / profile switch (its main job). AppConfig.SaveOnReadOnlyMessageSuppressed
renamed to SaveOnReadOnlyWarningSuppressed; v2.x suppression flag is silently
discarded since the behaviour changed and the user needs to see the warning
once on each machine.
* Manual (readme.html) updated: codec table rewritten with the three new
choices and corrected bandwidth figures, send-rate description updated, new
sections "The same profile picks up automatically after an update" and
"Saving on purpose while a profile is locked".
* Subsumes the never-separately-released v2.2 work: native Opus encoder
(~97% less per-second memory churn on Opus send path via Concentus.Native),
efficiency tidy-ups (item 4 ASIO probe rate, item 6 WaitHandle, item 7
snapshot cache, items 14/16 heartbeat + discovery), legacy cleanup
(items 30/34/35/36: KeepAlive infrastructure, drift drop/repeat/accumulator
fields, fan-out cache stat). New diagnostic columns cpu/memMB/wsMB/
allocKBps/captureMs/sendMs/recvMs/renderMs gated on Enable-logs.
About dialog updated with v3.0 block at top; v2.2 block retained for the
subsumed work.

Bump to v2.1.0: UPnP, read-only profile lock, sleep/hibernate audio fix
Headline features: * Automatic router port opening (UPnP / NAT-PMP / PCP). Opt-in via Preferences; surfaces external address + carrier-grade NAT detection. * Lock profile (read-only). New File-menu tick that makes a profile load-only — session changes don't persist, no save prompt on close. Unblocks unattended shutdowns (NVDA gone, remote dropped, hibernate) where the existing save prompt could deadlock. * Check for updates on startup (default on) + brief countdown notice before silent updates install, so a launch-time update doesn't make the app silently vanish. * "Cue sounds" -> "Audio cue sounds" label clarification. Bug fixes: * No sound after the computer wakes from sleep. PowerResumeHandler rebuilds the audio backend automatically on resume; brief "Reconnecting to audio driver" splash during the rebuild. * Receiver audio silent after waking from hibernate. RefreshAudioDeviceLists now treats a transient ASIO probe failure (returns -1/-1 because the driver is mid-teardown / mid-reinit) as "retry next tick" instead of clearing the user's tick selection. Diagnostic-only changes (gated on the existing Enable-logs checkbox, zero cost when off): * AudioStepProbe split into cross-buffer vs within-buffer maxes so log inspection can tell a real-content sharp transient apart from a pipeline-boundary glitch. Plumbed through every probe owner. * New rxNetGapMs + gc0/gc1/gc2 delta columns in the diag log to split receive-side jitter into network-layer vs managed-runtime causes. Files touched: RELEASE_NOTES.md + readme.html + 24 source files across RemSound.Core / RemSound.Sender / RemSound.Receiver / RemSound.App. Three new app files: PowerResumeHandler, RouterPortMapper, UpdateInstallNoticeDialog. Wire format and audio pipeline unchanged from v1.5 onward — v1.5 through v2.1 peers interoperate. |

Bump to v1.8.0: updater hardening + plain-language manual rewrite
Updater (RemSoundUpdater.cs), all from Andre's feedback: * CheckForUpdateAsync now requests /releases?per_page=100 instead of the default 30-item page, so a burst of server-vX.Y relay releases can't push the newest client release off page 1. * The install helper's robocopy now excludes remsound.config.json and the logs / profiles / recordings folders — an update replaces app files only and can never overwrite the user's own config or data. * On a successful update the helper now also deletes _update-helper.log and any stale update-failed.txt (the _update folder was already removed), leaving a tidy install folder. The failure branch still keeps them all for diagnosis. * update-failed.txt rewritten as plain user-facing instructions: numbered steps, no brand names, names the real _update folder, no robocopy jargon. The exit code now goes to _update-helper.log only. Manual (readme.html): rewritten in plain language — developer jargon removed or explained in everyday terms — and a second pass removed the keystroke-navigation choreography and screen-reader narration from the prose. The Keyboard shortcuts section and all shortcut reference are kept intact. No wire-format or audio-pipeline changes — v1.5 through v1.8 interoperate.

Bump to v1.6.0: peer-address recovery, reconnect crash, long-run memory/CPU leak
Three reliability fixes. Wire format and audio pipeline unchanged from v1.4 / v1.5 — all interoperate. Peer address recovery: * When a tracked peer goes Unreachable (its resolved address — often a stale DNS / Pi-hole record, or a peer that rebooted onto a new IP) but the same peer is still heartbeat-pinging us from a different address, RemSound now adopts the live address instead of transmitting to a dead one. HeartbeatService records untracked ping sources; MainForm's TryAdoptLiveHeartbeatAddress (1 Hz) re-points the sender, heartbeat tracking and receiver allow-list. Conservative: fires only on the unambiguous one-unreachable-and-one-source case, private-range (RFC1918) addresses only so a relay can't hijack the sender, 10 s cooldown. Reconnect crash: * Fixed IndexOutOfRangeException in MainForm.SyncConnectedList. A churny peer-list rebuild (peer reboot) left SelectedIndex pointing past the rebuilt item array; the 1 Hz status timer read SelectedItem and crashed the app. New SafeSelectedItem bounds-checks the index; applied to all three timer-driven sync methods. The status tick is also wrapped in try/catch so a transient WinForms hiccup logs instead of crashing. Long-run memory / CPU leak: * A receiver left running for hours grew to gigabytes and climbing CPU. Decoder sessions orphaned by peer reconnects were not reaped — every reconnect mints a fresh (endpoint, streamId) key, and PruneIdleSessions silently skipped sessions whose PlayoutEngine lookup missed. Rewrote it to reap on each session's own LastWriteUtc (no cross-dictionary lookup), added a hard MaxLiveSessions cap as a backstop, and a "stream sessions live: N" diagnostic line. Bounds both memory and render-thread CPU. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Bump to v1.5.0: cross-lane routing fix, recording double-tap fix, menu reorg
Bug fixes: * BothIndependent recording was double-tapped — when both WASAPI and ASIO outputs were ticked, recordings came out garbled and ~2x the expected duration. AudioRecorder now uses four per-lane rings (sent-wasapi, sent-asio, recv-wasapi, recv-asio) plus a writer- thread mix step that drains min(wasapi, asio) frames and sum-mixes with the soft-tanh limiter. Tap signatures gained a RenderRoute parameter; Mixed maps to the wasapi slot. * A peer announcing on the WASAPI lane was inaudible when the receiver only had an ASIO output ticked (and vice versa). The session opened, samples flowed into the SessionPlayout ring, but ReadForRoute(AsioLane) skipped any session whose Route was WasapiLane so nothing drained the ring. PlayoutEngine now tracks per-lane "is this lane backed by a device" via volatile bools settable through SetLaneActive(RenderRoute, bool), called from CompositeRenderBackend.SetOutputDevices whenever the device split changes. ReadForRoute admits orphan sessions when the other lane is inactive. Menu reorganisation: * New Options menu (Alt+O) holds Recording settings (Alt+S), Keyboard shortcuts (Alt+K, Ctrl+K), Startup behaviour (Alt+T), Preferences (Alt+P, Ctrl+P). Pre-v1.5 these were scattered across File menu, Record menu, and inside the Preferences dialog itself. * Record menu mnemonic moved from Alt+O to Alt+K, rendered as "Record (Alt+K)" so the chord is visible despite K not being a letter in "Record". Alt+R is taken by Receive audio. * File menu — new Recent profiles submenu (Alt+F, R) listing the five most-recently-opened profiles. Press 1..5 inside the submenu to jump to a slot. Missing files are skipped from the menu but kept in storage. * Rename current profile moves to Alt+M (was R), Minimise to tray moves to Alt+N (was M). * Lock to audio clock was Alt+K, now Alt+D. UX additions: * Ctrl+O = Open profile (matches the menu chord). * New global hotkey: Start / Stop recording. Pickable from Options -> Keyboard shortcuts. Unbound by default. Works system-wide. Wire format and audio pipeline unchanged from v1.4 — v1.4 and v1.5 peers interoperate. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Recording-settings dialog rework + menu mnemonic clean-up
Recording settings dialog
=========================
Promote what were row attributes inside the format-attributes table
into their own dedicated listboxes. Pre-rework each format's
attribute list contained a row per (quality knob × channel mode)
combination — doubling the row count for no real benefit. WAV had
6 rows, MP3 / OGG-Opus had 8, FLAC had 4. Channel mode is now its
own listbox; per-format attribute lists shrink to 3 (WAV), 4
(MP3 / OGG-Opus), 2 (FLAC).
FLAC compression level was previously a hidden RecordingSettings
field locked at the libFLAC default of 5. Now exposed as its own
conditional listbox with all 9 levels (0..8). Visible only when the
selected file format is FLAC; the column collapses to 0% width
otherwise so the dialog reads cleanly as 4 columns for non-FLAC
formats and 5 for FLAC.
Mnemonics:
* Source Alt+S (unchanged)
* File format Alt+F (unchanged)
* Attributes Alt+A (unchanged)
* Compression Alt+L (new, FLAC-only visible)
* Channels Alt+C (new)
* OK Alt+O (unchanged)
* Cancel Alt+N (was Alt+C — moved to free C for Channels)
Record menu mnemonics
=====================
Item mnemonics inside the Record menu reorganised so the keystroke
inside the menu matches the same letter used for Ctrl+R outside it,
and Settings reads naturally:
* Start recording / Stop recording Alt+R (was Alt+S)
* Recording settings Alt+S (was Alt+T)
* Open recordings folder Alt+O (unchanged)
* Change recordings folder Alt+C (unchanged)
UpdateStartStopRecordingMenuLabel keeps the underline on a literal
R in both states ("Sta&rt recording" → "Stop &recording") so the
keystroke does the same job regardless of which label is active.
No version bump — the running version stays at 1.3.0. These changes
will be bundled with the next public release alongside whatever else
is in flight.

Bump to v1.3.0: harden updater helper for Dropbox-installed copies
v1.2's self-updater silently failed when the install folder lived inside a Dropbox sync path. Dropbox held write locks on the existing RemSound.exe / DLLs during the brief window between the parent exiting and the helper script copying the new files in. The helper's robocopy (/R:5 /W:1) gave up after 5 seconds, and the helper then unconditionally relaunched the OLD binary — so the user saw the same version they started with after pressing "Yes" on the install prompt, with no visible error. Helper script (BuildInstallScript) changes: * Robocopy retries bumped to /R:60 /W:1 — up to 60 seconds per file. Dropbox lock release happens reliably within that window in practice. * Robocopy exit code is captured and checked. Codes >= 8 are real failures. On a failure the helper writes update-failed.txt to the install folder with the cause + recovery steps, leaves the staging folder intact, and does NOT relaunch the old binary. Earlier versions silently relaunched the unmodified old binary, hiding the failure. * Helper appends a step-by-step trace to _update-helper.log (in the install folder), with robocopy's own output included via /LOG+:. * update-failed.txt, _update-helper.log, and _apply-update.cmd are added to the /XF exclusion list so the helper's own state files don't get copied to themselves on a repeat update run. DownloadAndStageInstallAsync also clears any stale update-failed.txt at the start of every new attempt, so a successful run leaves the install folder clean. readme.html "If install fails" section expanded with the new update-failed.txt marker file behaviour and the _update-helper.log location. Wire format, audio pipeline, and recording feature unchanged from v1.2 — this is updater-machinery-only. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Bump to v1.2.0: recording, sound cues, drift compensation, diagnostics
New user-facing features:
* Recording. Dedicated Record menu (Alt+O — moved from Alt+R to
avoid clashing with the Receive audio checkbox), Start/Stop on
Ctrl+R, settings dialog, per-profile source / format / bit-depth /
channel-mode / folder. Three source modes (received only, sent
only, both). Files are crash-resilient — a process crash
mid-recording leaves a playable file containing everything up to
the last header refresh (~5 seconds).
* Four output formats, all functional:
- WAV: 16/24-bit PCM or 32-bit float, custom writer with
periodic RIFF re-patching.
- MP3: LAME 128–320 kbps CBR (via NAudio.Lame).
- OGG-Opus: 96–256 kbps VBR (via Concentus.Oggfile, reusing the
Concentus encoder from the wire path).
- FLAC: 16/24-bit lossless (via CUETools.Codecs.FLAKE — pure
managed, no native DLL).
* Recording start/stop sound cues. record start.wav and
record stop.wav play around the recording transition. Played via
System.Media.SoundPlayer to the default Windows output, separate
from the recording pipeline so a normal recording does not contain
the cue.
* Per-cue Preferences. The old single "Mute connect/disconnect
sounds" checkbox is replaced by a CheckedListBox: Connect /
Disconnect / Recording start / Recording stop. Old profiles with
the legacy MuteConnectionCues=true are honoured on first load via
a migration path in the new Load* helpers.
* Receiver-side drift compensation switched from discrete
single-frame splices to a continuous WdlResampler at a smoothed
rate ratio. SessionPlayout.cs rewrite.
Diagnostics (only active with Enable logs ticked):
* Per-stage discontinuity probes — sender raw capture (per backend,
PushModeWasapi + Asio both wired), sender pre-encode (now per
lane in BothIndependent, fixing a cross-stream artefact), receiver
post-decode, post-ring, post-resampler.
* Wire-level packet sequence tracking on each PCM stream — in-order
/ missed / reordered / duplicated counts in the diag log.
* Clipped-sample delta in the diag log.
* New AudioStepProbe in RemSound.Core with per-channel scan helper.
UI changes:
* Record menu uses Alt+O (Rec&ord). Inside the menu, item mnemonics
unchanged (S / T / O / C).
* Auto-tune interval combo label is mode-aware: "Auto-tune latency
interval" in classic modes, "Auto-tune interval — WASAPI and ASIO"
in BothIndependent. The combo's Enabled state now follows EITHER
lane's auto-tune checkbox (was only the WASAPI one — bug).
Wire format and audio pipeline unchanged from v1.1 — v1.1 and v1.2
peers interoperate.

Add priority mode + always-on network packet priority
Priority mode (per-profile toggle, Audio profile tab, Alt+U): - Bundled PROCESS_POWER_THROTTLING_STATE with EXECUTION_SPEED and IGNORE_TIMER_RESOLUTION flags (keeps CPU at full clock + 1 ms quantum pinned regardless of OS idle decisions) - PowerSetRequest(EXECUTION_REQUIRED) + SetThreadExecutionState so the system can't decide we're idle and downclock - timeBeginPeriod(1) for 1 ms scheduler quantum - ProcessPriorityClass.High, ProcessMemoryPriority normal, working-set minimum locked via SetProcessWorkingSetSizeEx(HARDWS_MIN_ENABLE) - Fully reversed on toggle-off and on form close - Off by default (battery cost on laptops); explicit opt-in per profile MMCSS thread priority on hot threads bumped from High to Critical (network listener, mix loop, render thread) — always on. Network packet priority (always on, no toggle): - qWAVE flow on the outbound UDP socket at QOS_TRAFFIC_TYPE_VOICE with QOS_NON_ADAPTIVE_FLOW (Voice priority, DSCP 46/EF, WMM Voice on Wi-Fi) - Silent fallback if qwave.dll missing or QoS service disabled - Sender + receiver kernel UDP buffers bumped to 1 MB each (was 256 KB send / 512 KB receive) for resilience against ~30 ms stalls Bug fix: PreferencesDialog logging toggle no longer flags the profile as dirty. Logging is a machine-local AppConfig setting; the spurious ChangedAnyProfileSetting flag was triggering the unsaved-changes prompt on exit after toggling logs alone. Manual updated: new "Use CPU and Windows performance settings in high priority mode (Alt+U)" subsection on the Audio profile tab, new "Network packet priority (qWAVE / Voice / WMM)" subsection in the network chapter, Alt+U row added to keyboard-shortcuts table.
