XXHighEnd Model 0.9w-4 (SQ change and some more things)

[PeterSt]

Indeed "SQ change" for Engine#3, without any judgement about better or worse. Better intended of course !

• Since questions were expressed on the Sound Quality of 0.9w-3 vs. 0.9v-6a / 0.9v-7 and attempt has been made to change things back for the better. Please note this goes without judgement (at all) from your humble developer, since too many hardware changes were applied to his own playback system, and any judgement of him is doubtful the least.
  
  
• Where 0.9w-3 allowed for spliiting large files into smaller pieces (Settings Area - Split file at size), at the boundaries of the file parts "ticks" could emerge. Many days of search for the culprit solved this now.
  
  
• In the same errorneous area, 24 bit files could stop playing (including an error given by XXEngine3). Solved too.
  
  
• Issue left : At some stage a track may play for the second time, and after that playback stops as if the Playlist has been finished.
  
  
• Above the Volume Slider now the digital volume level is visible at all times.
  
  
• Using the "Favorites form" (click on the small "F" button which is visible at the bottom when the Library Area is active) now does *not* incur for Search right after clicking a Favorites link; The Search button now has to be clicked in order to scan the chosen Favorite folder.
  Besides this seems more intuitive, it also allows for the Date Search (the little "D" button in that same area) to be applied right after a Favorites folder has been chosen, instead of waiting for the unnessary implied Search for all in the folder from before.
  
  
• It was found that XXEngine3 quit itself in an illegal fashion when a Playlist had been finished playing. This caused the WASAPI sound device to be illegally shut down, with the consequence of Vista not being able to go into Sleep Mode.
  Most probably this also caused the sound system as a whole to more or less fail for other playback means. This is to be tested by those with the appropriate experience on this matter, please.
