The shareware version can be downloaded here, registered and optimized versions can be downloaded here.

Code:
-Improved Master Tempo quality
-Removed some old tag database code that could cause some warnings to be displayed in the console
-Fixed problem with going up one folder level from a recursively opened folder

Hi Adion,
In addition to my mail.. 12.03.
Decks crashed after a while completly. So the tagcache was not finished. In the logs was nothing to find.( crash).
Now I started it without the autoplayfunction . The tagcache is close to the end without a prob.
But -huh at the moment I played one song while it was running . Uups, Decks crashed again. The tagcache is still not ready .
At the moment I think when you build the tagcache you can not use Decks in playing mode. ( win 7 x64 , ultimate).

I actually tried zplane elastique, but was dissapointed with its results on some samples I tried.
The improvements in this version are simply improvements that I've managed to make to my own algorithm.

Almost unbelievable! Maybe you didn't check with the 'pro' setting?

For example you could try Acid7, it uses also zplane, and you can select all modes (solo, elastique, pro)
Offcourse the pro setting has the best results.

I haven't had the change to check out your new MT, I'll let you know when I do

I tried with the demo application you can download directly from their website, and I tried all settings, including pro.
On the sample I tried, the problems I could very easily hear was a flanger-like sound even on small pitch changes, and on larger pitch changes a lack of kick and a decrease in volume.

You are right about the EQ differences Zplane produces. But it doesn't hackle* or stutter, even in extreme pitch situations (>10%) and it performs much better on vocals.
I haven't notice the volume change yet.

Your 'new' MT is definitely better than the old one.
But I still prefer Zplane because it doesn't hackle*.

*NL: met hackle/stutter bedoel ik haperen, blikkerig klinken

Do you have an example of a song that clearly has these problems even with this beta?

I was experimenting about this prob. In most cases win7x64 (Test machine : 8 gigs ram, 3,6 mhz Intel core duo) don´t crash when you start the autoplayfunction if the players are empty and the first songs will be mp3 files. If I start with mp4 or mp4a (drmfree) once in a while it´s blocked.
I guess there is a prob with the bpm detection of this file type. If you ran the decks util 0,43 or decksplayer . Bpm is showed and is increasing when the song is played, but it´s never stored. Also when you restart decks after a while you will see only zero´s ( overwrite read only files is on ! )
Can you check this ?

Any features or development planned for this version or is it just maintenance now that the X product is in the stream..

Don`t see too many features or discussion on the regular version.. :?:

Seems most of the energy is going into the other product ( understand limited resources ) but trying to determine when would be the best crossover time from a stability point of view.

Will licensing be maintained for the New and improved product or is there some kind of cutoff for the Standard edition. :?:

You will certainly be allowed to use your current registration for the DX version as well.
The only thing that I haven't decided yet is if an additional upgrade will be required for the video features.

It is correct that I'm currently mostly fixing bugs for the regular version, and trying to get all the missing features in the DX version.
There will also be some new features that may not make it into the regular version anymore.

You can always try the DX version now, you can safely have both versions installed side-by-side.
Stability-wise it's probably already close to the regular version, so it will mostly depend on which features you want to use if the DX version is ready for you yet or not.

Great improvement. Thank you
It works.......
Makes it sense If I mix the installation with the dx99beta. ?
With the standard 0.99 the autoplay was playin for hours without a prob and the tagcache building finished without any mistake.

I don't think the new master tempo is that good. It often sounds like the beats aren't matched when in fact they are. I find myself correcting the pitch as the beats seem to skip forward/back. I thought it might have been an update to the VCI sensitivity or something but after experimenting a little I do believe the problem lies with the master tempo.

Should not the #7262 build be available here given the bug found on the PCDJ build ?

The wma playback bug does not apply for djDecks, as it was a problem with decoding using the Bass sound engine (djDecks uses the FMod sound engine)
