## 0.1.0-83e21492 — 2026-09-16
* The MD380 software vocoder now reads `md380fw.img` / `md380ram.img` from
`share/darthvader/vocoder_fw` instead of the firmware being built into the
binary — it is Tytera's firmware and not ours to redistribute. DV3000 sticks
and remote AMBEservers are unaffected.
* Ships as `.msi` and plain `.zip`. The NSIS `.exe` was dropped: unsigned
self-extractors are flagged by generic heuristics (the whole Bitdefender
engine family, Microsoft's ML) while the same payload as `.msi` is not.

### Antivirus warnings
The packages are **not code-signed**, so SmartScreen warns on first run
(*More info* → *Run anyway*), and a few engines flag them on reputation alone
— Microsoft Defender on a real machine does not. Verify the SHA-256 against
`SHA256SUMS` in the release; that is what the checksums are there for.
DV3000 / ThumbDV / DVstick sticks appear as COM ports through the FTDI VCP
driver and are detected automatically. If audio stutters, lower the port's
*Latency Timer* to 1–2 ms in Device Manager → Port Settings → Advanced.
