I removed the debugging symbols from the installer, hoping it will remove the false positive from some of the Anti-virus.

The updater will now check for the Signature I'm using, to be sure you're going to installer a trusted version of SoundSwitch. I'm the only one with the key, to give you an idea, it's the same system that big companies are using to digitally sign their software.

Speaking of signing, the installer will also add the certificate of SoundSwitch in the trusted store. If you don't want it, just uncheck the box at the end of the installation.

Change Log

v3.12.7 (2017-02-14)

Full Changelog

Implemented enhancements:

• Check the update is signed with a trusted key #147
• Make the installer install the certificate used by SoundSwitch #145
• When stealth update is activated, don't auto-update if there is an app in fullscreen #144

Fixed bugs:

• Updater crash with Full updater and progress bar #83

Hashes

I rewrote some part of the underlying lib that manages the audio device.
It should resolve the issue with Bluetooth devices and some other edge case scenarios with device getting removed/added.

I also added a link directly to the donation page in the installer. The pdb (debugging symbols) are now also part of the installer. This way if the application crashes, you should get a more meaningful error.

It seems Norton is not happy with this release. I ran a Virtual Total scan that returned negative.

Change Log

v3.12.6 (2017-02-11)

Fixed bugs:

• Crashed when Bluetooth headphones connected #140

Closed issues:

• Add donation url in the installer #142

Hashes

Thank to @patgrosse for improving the systray Icon.
Now the Icon will reflect directly which device is the default one.

I also took the time to add a little bit of dynamism when changing the "Keep Systray Icon setting", when you change it, the icon directly updates.

Change Log

v3.12.5 (2017-01-02)

Full Changelog

Fixed bugs:

• Reinit the systray icon on Keep Systray setting change #135

Merged pull requests:

• TrayIcon is correctly selected after startup #134 (patgrosse)

In the previous release, I added the possibility to keep the default SoundSwitch systray icon when the default audio device change. In the same time, I introduced a bug (#131) rendering the usage of the left click menu on said icon unusable.

The menu wasn't updating, neither reacting to clicks.

I also decided that the beta channel will now include also the stable releases.

Change Log

v3.12.4 (2016-12-09)

Full Changelog

Implemented enhancements:

Fixed bugs:

Change Log

v3.12.3 (2016-12-08)

Full Changelog

Implemented enhancements:

• Setting to keep the normal SoundSwitch TrayIcon #128

Closed issues:

• Hotkey to switch playback no longer works #130

This version marks the addition of a new feature, the Windows 8/8.1/10 Toast notification. You can now use them to get notified when a device changes state. By default it's silent, but you can choose any sound.

Also, the trayicon of SoundSwitch will now take the icon of the current default device (only after the first switch). In case you don't like the icon, you can always set a new one in the Playback settings of Windows.

Moreover, I received a couple of email about adding a way to thank me for my work; I set up a donation page, and I added a donation button directly in SoundSwitch. There won't be any nagging about donating.

This version will also update your runtime library .NET to 4.6.2 and your VC Redist 2015 to the build 24212 (Update 3).

Change Log

v3.12.1 (2016-11-25)

Full Changelog

Implemented enhancements:

• Device-dependent system tray icon #122

Fixed bugs:

• SoundSwitch crash when stopping #123

The biggest challenge and change is the customizable Toast Notification.
You can not change the sound it makes or even remove all the sound (default setting for it).

Btw you can change the icon by going there: C:\Program Files\SoundSwitch\img and replacing the png by your picture (keep the same filename). This is an easter egg, not a voluntary feature.

Fixed bugs:

• SoundSwitch 3.9.6 Cannot install visual c++ redist #84
• Pipe system broken: New instance of SoundSwitch doesn't close the previous one #81
• Switching already running applications #70

The previous release introduced some annoying bug.

The first one, the switching of the device wasn't working as expected; it should check was is the current default device, then switch to the next one in the list. Because of a bug, it wasn't finding the default device and always taking the last one as the default device.

The other change concern the new tooltip feature, using Balloon tip wasn't the best idea and is clearly not readable (+ the fact it flickers when the tooltip timeout and is redrawn). This has been removed and replace by the basic tooltip of the systray, the one that appears when you hover the icon. It's more readable and usable.

Thank you again for the report (especially about the tooltip feature).

  • When hovering the Systray icon, SoundSwitch will tell you which device is active (you can select in the settings which type of device you’re interested in)
• Added possibility to discard the selected devices to cycle through all the connected one
  • It’s a workaround for some configuration where you have a new audio device every time you disconnect/reconnect it. This way, you don’t have to select any device in the settings, SoundSwitch will cycle through all the connect devices.
