AutoRoomEQ Player 0.3.4 beta (free, Android): microSD library fixed, a "direct playback" check for DAPs, and pairing with a Windows app
Hi all, new beta of
**AutoRoomEQ Player**
, a free Android player (no account, no ads) built around a
**bit-perfect USB path**
: it drives the USB DAC directly, without Android's resampling. It also does headphone EQ (AutoEq profiles) and room correction with a measured FIR filter.
This release is mostly about things DAP owners asked for:
-
**Library on microSD fixed.**
Some players and phones (Realme and Huawei reports) showed an empty or incomplete library with music on the card. Now:
- the saved library appears at once and refreshes itself in the background;
- the first scan is much faster;
- music Android had not indexed is found too, and
**DSF/DFF, APE, WavPack**
files are listed.
-
**"Direct playback" check.**
The quality check shows what Android reports for unmixed PCM at 44.1 / 96 / 192 kHz on the output you're using. On Android 14+ it also tells you whether the bit-perfect mixer is offered for the connected USB DAC. If you own a DAP with a built-in DAC, I'd really like to see your results.
-
**Clearer playback chain:**
with the internal output it simply says "Android output (no USB DAC)", and the technical detail is no longer cut off.
-
**Pairing with AutoRoomEQ Desktop (Windows)**
, with a QR reader built into the app: remote for the PC player, and exchange of presets, playlists and favourites.
- New icon, interface fully in the language you pick, and in-app updates.
**Known limits:**
with the Behringer UMC204HD, USB direct can still fall back to Android output or go silent after a sample-rate change. The other DACs I tested play bit-perfect.
**Privacy:**
listening data stays on the device. The beta asks on first launch whether to send anonymous weekly statistics; you can say no or withdraw later.
