Fixed

Saved favourites could start connecting as a VibeServer instead of the UberSDR receiver they actually are — and, worse, the wrong answer was then written back onto the favourite, so it stayed wrong.

VibeSDR identifies a server by looking at its web page. It was treating the word VibeSDR as evidence of a VibeServer — but that is the client's name, not the server's, and UberSDR receivers carry an "open in VibeSDR" deep link of their own. So a perfectly ordinary UberSDR looked like one of ours.

(Reaching the same receiver through the UberSDR directory kept working, because that route already knows the type and never needs to guess — which is why this only bit favourites.)

VibeSDR now looks for a marker only a real VibeServer carries, and repairs any favourites that were mislabelled. A favourite whose type is cleared is simply re-identified the next time you connect — nothing to do by hand.

Changed

  • The in-app About page listed the v7.1 changes under a "V8.0.0" heading and never mentioned VibeServer at all. It now has a proper V8.0.0 section, and V7.1.0 has its own again.
