What are those FFFFFFF in the CPU load panel ?. Some new one to show what ?
Affinity.
1 = core 0
2 = core 1
4 = core 2
8 = core 3
10 = core 4
20 = core 5
40 = core 6
80 = core 8
100 = core 9
200 = core 10
400 = core 11
800 = core 12
etc.

You can combine these numbers if you want to put something on multiple cores, for example F (1+2+4+8, hex numbers) is core 0, 1, 2 or 3.

You would normally leave these on FFFFFFFF, or choose a specific core for each thread. If you do that, the difference in performance that some people have reported if you restart it is gone.

Only use this if you know what you're doing. If you're combining threads on 2 virtual CPU's that are using a shared core via Hyperthreading, performance will drop a lot. Core 0 is used for many OS things, so if you can avoid using it that's better.

I'm currently using "4" (core 2) for the main processing thread and "10" (core 4) for the 2nd processing thread, and "40" (core 6) for the GUI.

Preset thing has to do with all settings including sound card I think. Demodulated thing is related to that.

Because when I load a preset of my own (from hard disk) it seems to work just fine


EDIT:

From my own preset to build in Unveil goes well.

From my own preset to build in centurion causes error

Having this said, I overinstalled the last release with this beta and immediately I got screen errors occured. So I did factory reset and than I could search for the Bochja Ibiza FM preset.

Inveil and centurion including HVZ mods are not working. And causing errors, probably the cause of the errors when over installed Stereotool.
This makes the CPU load measurements very unreliable. (Something might be crashing causing not everything to be done). I see now that the DSP version works fine on all the systems that I tested it on, but I also see weird behavior in the stand alone. Are you using the stand alone version?

On Old athlon 4850e there is about 7-8% (peak 10%) difference in load. Last beta is about 10% more load. Last beta before library changes, beta14 i think (Old/Old) is 10% less load
Huh? This is VERY unexpected. Also please tell us the total numbers - on my system this version with everything (FM, composite clipper enabled, Stokkemask enabled) doesn't get above 7% in total...

Did you play with the Affinity settings??

Core 1 (you start counting at 0 normally, so don't you mean core 0?).

For 0/1: 1 + 2 = 3
For 2/3: 4 + 8 = C

Or if you did really mean 1/2 and 3/4:
1/2: 2 + 4 = 6
3/4: 8 + 10 = 18

Yes, I'm using stand alone.

Still not sure what's causing the preset issue. One moment it seems to work fine when I switch between presets and then it causes errors again.
Centurion preset is always giving an error.. unveil sometimes

@PowerSound: Can you try if the DSP works on your system? If so I must have configured something incorrectly in the stand alone build, otherwise there must be a program error.

Last beta stand alone crashes on XP at start (typical XP error message - problem with stereotool.exe ....)

I tried DSP version (never used it before) but I can switch here presets without problems (so far)
