HQPlayer Desktop/Embedded 2.6.1 and HQPlayer Engine SDK 2.6.1 released!

Completely reimplemented NS9 noise shaper for use at 176.4/192 kHz rates (especially nice for 4x rate capable 16-bit DACs like TDA154x). New NS5 noise shaper for use at (192/)352.8/384/705.6/768 kHz rates (especially nice for 16x rate capable DACs like PCM1704). These noise shapers are very aggressive and can provide a lot of extra SNR in the critical frequency band.
Also a new “steep” conversion method for PCM playback of DSDIFF/DSF files and a new alternative noise filter “secondary” especially for use together with “steep” conversion method. Some fixes and a new setting for ASIO DSD support.
Also introduced a counter to show when limiter is hit on clipped/too hot material. In order to avoid hitting the limiter, use low enough volume setting (usually -3 dB is enough).
Plus the usual minor fixes, including fixes related to cover art loading.
