need SDRsharp r1404 - r1408 breaks plugins

recently updated from 1404 to 1408 and now none of my plugins will work.
does anyone have r1404 as a zip file that i can download please ?
unfortunately, revision build 1408 does not work with third party plugins in plugins.xml.
all the plugins were operating without issue on revision build 1404.
can i please have revision build 1404 ? i mistakenly over wrote the 1404 build (zip file) with 1408 that i downloaded as a zip and i cant seem to locate older versions of SDRsharp, specifically build 1404.
this is a list of plugins it no longer works with:
<add key="DSD" value="SDRSharp.DSD.DSDPlugin,SDRSharp.DSD" />
<add key="DCSDecoder" value="SDRSharp.DCSDecoder.DCSDecoderPlugin,SDRSharp.DCSDecoder" />
<add key="CTCSSDecoder" value="SDRSharp.CTCSSDecoder.CTCSSDecoderPlugin,SDRSharp.CTCSSDecoder" />
<add key="IFRecorder" value="SDRSharp.IFRecorder.IFRecorderPlugin,SDRSharp.IFRecorder" />
<add key="IQ Balancer" value="SDRSharp.IQCorrection.IQCorrectionPlugin,SDRSharp.IQCorrection" />
<add key="DigitalAudioProcessor" value="SDRSharp.DigitalAudioProcessor.DigitalAudioProcessorPlugin,SDRSharp.DigitalAudioProcessor" />
<add key="DigitalIfProcessor" value="SDRSharp.DigitalIfProcessor.DigitalIfProcessorPlugin,SDRSharp.DigitalIfProcessor" />
<add key="DAP" value="SDRSharp.DAP.DAPPlugin,SDRSharp.DAP" />
<add key="BasebandRecorder" value="SDRSharp.BasebandRecorder.BasebandRecorderPlugin,SDRSharp.BasebandRecorder" />
<add key="AudioRecorder" value="SDRSharp.AudioRecorder.AudioRecorderPlugin,SDRSharp.AudioRecorder" />
<add key="LevelMeter" value="SDRSharp.LevelMeter.LevelMeterPlugin,SDRSharp.LevelMeter" />
<add key="MPX" value="SDRSharp.OutMPX.OutMPXPlugin,SDRSharp.OutMPX" />

This is becoming tiresome..

Seems every other day SDR# comes out with an update that breaks support for the plugins and SDRPlay.
Only reason many people (myself included) use SDR#, is because of the plugins.

Shame someone can't come out with a dedicated 'scanner orientated' SDR software package that includes all the nice features of those Russian plugins & DSDPlus. Then, I could give SDR# the toss.

I think, with the increasing popularity of SDR, it is only a matter of time before this happens.
I would happily pay for such software.

r1404 was working perfectly for me but stupid me overwrote the last downloaded zip (r1404) with r1408.
now i cant go back, dammit.
lesson learned - keep the previous build in case the new one is broken.

R1409 has been released which says plugins have been repaired.

i replied to the group with a screen shot showing that it still does not work.
"
as a reply to recent build 1409, the plugins still do not work.

i created a "test" folder (c:\SDRS\test) and installed all the relevant files from the r1409 x86 download zip into the folder as a "clean install" into the newly created folder.

i added the following file to the test folder (c:\SDRS\test) SDRSharp.CTCSSDecoder.dll and added the following key at the last entry to to Plugins.xml before </sharpPlugins>, <add key="DCSDecoder" value="SDRSharp.DCSDecoder.DCSDecoderPlugin,SDRSharp.DCSDecoder" />, the plugin does not appear.
the OS is windows 7 x64 but the previous x86 r1404 worked perfectly with the list of plugins i posted before so this is not an issue between x64 and x86
relevant screen shot is attached for reference.

thanks for all the help trying to resolve the issue.

i will keep testing builds until it works"

Just because a new version comes out doesn't mean suddenly the old(er) version(s) is useless - if you don't have a really GOOD reason to move to a new version of SDR# and I mean a really good one like some build just crashes totally and doesn't run at all for you but a newer version does, well that's a really good reason to use the new(er) version obviously.

But just because a new build gets released doesn't mean you should pounce on it immediately, and even if you do if you're not taking 10 seconds to back up/copy your current SDR# folder to a safe place so you can roll back to it if necessary then I'd say you're doing it wrong.

I know progress is made but, so far I haven't seen anything special about these newer builds except all the little fiascos with the plugins.

Hell, until recently I'd been running the same SDR# build for over a year, never had a problem with it - now it seems like builds are coming more frequently but I haven't seen any reason to alter what already works for me.

YMMV, as always...

even adding the following to the SDRSharp.exe.Config file did not help.
<add key="CTCSSSquelchTone" value="156.7" />
<add key="CTCSSSquelchEnable" value="False" />
<add key="CTCSSDetectEnable" value="False" />
<add key="CTCSSAuxWindowEnable" value="False" />
<add key="CTCSSOnSpectrum" value="False" />

i generally do not over write the last build i downloaded in the zip file, this was by accident.

so no one has r1400 to r1404 ?
i cant believe that you cannot obtain an older version of this software.
that is ridiculously stupid.

Here's 1400, just happened to snatch it when it was released but I don't even use it (I stick with older versions for the reasons noted above):

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/19019338/sdrsharp-x86.zip

I'll leave it up for a few days just in case but then I'll pull it, so if you want it grab it now.

thank you !

Hi all,

do you still have SDR# version r1400 - 1409?

I'll second that. The building blocks and knowledge are there. It would be great if two or three of these authors would get together and write a software scanner that uses 2 SDRs, has a nice GUI, and decodes digital modes.
