DPS 2.0 Testing (Windows)

[jburdick777]

I am running Windows 10 – 10074 and would like to Alpha / Beta Test DPS 2.0

[jburdick777]

I’ve just upgraded to Windows 10 B 10122 and DPS still doesn’t work.  How do I get the DPS 2.0 Alpha to test?

[xaqmusic]

We will have a new build (2.0.0a17) ready in the next few days.  Aside from a bunch of audio engine tweaks, compatibility for Windows 10 is included.

We certainly want folks to be testing in Windows 10.  If any new folks want to join the test program and are using Windows 10, please email me.

Thanks!

Great!  I’m interested.  What’s your Email?

New DPS 2.0 build a17 is now available in Dropbox

Build notes:

• Fixed issue with app crashing on Windows 10..
• Updated JSON packages.
• Fixed an issue with the default background color of the main window.
• Fixed a UI drawing issue when switching outputs on the settings tab.
• Added the ability to read bgvx profiles.
• The beta timeout for a17 is 8/1/2015.

This build introduces the ability to open our new bgvx profile format.  This new format consolidates many parameters that used to be separate.  As a result, there will be a few known issues until we replace the bgva profile with bgvx:

• Stereo Enhancement effect will reset when switching profiles.  To hear the effect, turn STEREO CONTROLS off then on again.
• Some distortion may occur on very loud profiles.  This is due to limiter settings not being loaded by default.

If you are running Windows 10 and would like to join our test program please click here for details.

Thanks!

Hi Joe!

Thanks for releasing a new build but there’s no file in the dropbox.

Ah!  I had changed the name of the dropbox folder.  I just changed it back.  Please try the link again.

Got the new DPS 2.0 a17 build.  Now running Windows 10 B 10130 and everything seems to be working out OK.

ruslang,

 

Remember, the current DPS virtual audio driver is limited to 44.1kHz 16bit audio only.  Perhaps you saw the error because of 32bit audio?  As long as Windows is handling the audio streams sample rate and bit depth conversion will be applied automatically.

jburdick777,

I’m glad to hear you are having success.

All,

Microsoft announced that Windows 10 will be released July 29th!  Our goal is to have all features of DPS 2.0 ready for that date.   Our biggest delays have been related to the massive overhaul of our web based system.  But when you see the results of the upgrade I think you will feel it was worth it.  We will also be rolling out the new DPS profile format that has tons of cool processing features that will make your devices sound even better.  Stay tuned!

I am currently on Win10 B 10130 and the GUI shows up and running properly, but the audio processing itself does not work.

I have DPS set as default audio device and selected the HDMI-Audio output from my TV which is my main audio source and it is also activated in the Nvidia control panel by default. What to do?

[amadeus32]

still waiting for that download link, been using dps 1.2.3 for windows 7 64-bit for years now, can’t wait for dps 2.0 to be used on my newly installed windows 10.

[xaqmusic]

Sorry for the late replies.  I’ve been in China for the past 11 days.  Those links are going out now…

mrdank,

Do you see the sound level meters moving in DPS?

See if you have the option to set the HDMI output to 44.1kHz sample rate and 24 or 16 bits.  Access this by clicking Properties of that device in the Sound Control Panel.
