## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 7.4 — 2026-09-29

• DR values now follow the DR14 spec and match foobar. Tracks you've
  played are measured from the full file; the rest show an estimate,
• WebDAV now has its own section in Settings, with a clear list of what
  needs it  it wasn't obvious that DR, pressing certification and the
  OBIScanner / DrDoctor hand-offs all depend on it.

### 7.3 — 2026-09-19

• MPD servers on your network now show up in Settings automatically —
  no more typing an address, especially on Apple TV.
• Fixed the last tracks of an album being stuck underneath the mini
  player where they couldn't be tapped.

### 7.2 — 2026-09-18

DSD over PCM (DoP)

DrMobile can now send DSD straight to a USB DAC instead of converting it
to PCM first, so the DAC does the decoding itself. Turn it on in
Settings › Local Playback › "DSD over PCM (DoP)".

DoP needs a wired USB DAC that supports it, and the system volume at
maximum - iOS applies digital gain below 100%, which corrupts the stream.
Use your DAC's own volume control instead. When the conditions aren't met,
DrMobile falls back to PCM and tells you exactly why. It's off by default:
on a DAC that doesn't speak DoP it would play as loud noise.

While DoP is active, Now Playing shows the real source format — "DSD64 ·
2.82 MHz" - instead of the PCM carrier rate.

Better DSD to PCM conversion

When DoP isn't available, DSD decoding now uses a far steeper filter. The
previous one let some of DSD's ultrasonic noise fold down into the audible
range as a faint hiss; the new one keeps it well below the noise floor.
Search is fixed

Search was returning an empty list for every query, on iPhone, iPad 
it works again, and it no longer fires a request on every
keystroke, so results settle faster.

Also in this release

• The Now Playing widget updates reliably again - it was refreshing far
  too often and iOS was throttling it.
• Various stability and performance fixes.
