One thing that is certain is that over time CPU load will keep increasing. At some point something that used to work won't work anymore. That can be fixed with faster CPU.

 

This happens with all software, operating systems, etc. Not just with HQPlayer.

 

CPU load did not change.

If I buy a more powerful pc can my windows HQPayer license be transfere  to that computer ?

Just watching gpu percentage.For all filters except the xtr filters the gpu load is around 9 % and cpu load around 16 % this is for upsampling to dsd 256.When I try with the xtr filters after about 18 seconds get popping sounds.For the xtr filters gpu load at around 85% and cpu is around 21%.Why would the gpu load be so high for the xtr filters ?

Using a GTX 980 for CUDA offload.When updating driver is it okay to just download the graphics driver without the other stuff like HD audio driver,GeForce experience ,and physics software if just using computer for music server ?

Running HQPlayer and Roon on main PC ,only used as music server.Also running nuc as a NAA device.My dac requires its own drivers.Do I need to install driver only on NAA  or both ? Thanks

Looking to build a new computer for HQPayer.When looking for a new CPU what is most important clock speed,cores ,cache,threads.Looking for one capable of dsd upsampling to dsd 256.Any suggestions.Looking at intel CPU ?

Building  a new Pc.Looking at either the 7700k or 8700k for the Cpu.One better then the other ?

What happened to beta testing ?

[Outlaw]

Use to be able to download beta versions on HQPlayer Facebook.Have not seen that there since version 3.17

[Outlaw]

Just installed latest version of HQPlayer.Have to go back to previous version getting crackling and poppping.Have latest drivers.

[Outlaw]

Got it working with latest version of HQPayer after rebooting computer a couple of time.When installing nividia  drivers should I install all or just the graphics driver if just sing a music server ?

[Outlaw]

If HQPlayer runs fine on CPU alone should I enable Cuda

[Outlaw]

If I purchase a new computer can I transfer license ?

[Outlaw]

Thanks

Will a 7700K do all dsd 256 filters on its own without Cuba offload ?

Since the latest update of HQPlayer and Windows weird things happening in task manager.When I open task manager showing cpu load of 28% but HQPlayer only showing around 6%,but no other cpu usages.The load before was around 28 % but HQPlayer was showing CPU usage of around 26% ?

Just built a new Windows PC for HQPlayer.How do you change my Windows license from old pc to new ?

[Outlaw]

If my dac requires a driver for windows do I need driver on core machine and naa device or just the naa device for windows 10 ?

[Outlaw]

Thanks

Brought this up before never got a answer.Run HQPlayer and Roon on my pc.Use a nuc as naa.In the last 2 builds when I use HQPlayer and Roon together  everything is great..When I use HQPlayer on its own lots of time will have to restart music as it stutters.Pc has enough power.Weird thing when using Roon with HQPlayer when I open task manager cpu runs at a constant 22%.When I run HQPLAYER on its own the cpu usage in task manager is all over the place ?

Windows 10 on both core pc and naa device.Use with tidal and my library on external ssd drive.All files are flac 16 bit 44.1 files.Also another symptom is HQPlayer is very slow for commands .Say I hit pause it takes about 10 secs to stop music.Upsamble all to dsd 256.
