Qt_DAB-6 5Beta-1
Qt_DAB-6 5Beta-2

Qt_DAB 6.5Beta is the logical successor of 6.40. The most important visible change is the "double view" in what was the ensemble list. The list now shows either the ensemble list - with a mark for those services that are included in the favorites list - or the
favorites list - with for each service the channel where it was found.
Furthermore, Qt_DAB now has support for accessing a spyServer (although one needs quite some bandwidth to use it).

It turned out that some virus scanners (falsely) detected something in the Windows installers. Removing all optimization flags in the compilation seems to have solved that. Of course the Linux AppImage is optimized maximally.

As usual, two windows installers (with different libraries included for RTLSDR V4 support and for support of only older versions) and an AppImage for use in Linux x64, a manual is updated and included in the sourcetree and in the list below.

The installer 6.5Beta contains the RTLSDR library supporting the V4 versions, the installer with V3 in its name has support for the older sticks.

As (almost always) some virusscanners (Windows of course) merk the 6.5 installers as infected, most don't.
Since with 6.40 no such signals were received, I added a freshly compiled 6.40 version - generated with the same tools, the same source tree, with the only difference in the GUI handler - and a 64 bit version (from the latter it is known that it does not handle all slide formats. If your virusscanner does not show the same behaviour on the latter 2, be convinced that it is a false positive.
All versions presented here are built on the same day, from the same sourcetree with the same toolset

In the most recent updates an erroneous rounding in the computation of distances and corners was corrected and the color selection was changed: it turned out that Qt provides a menu for that.
Firthermore, the color of the font used for showing the name of the selected service and the dynamic Label can now be set by clicking on the name of the selected service (just above the slide position)
