We have released a maintenance release for DOSBox 0.74, which solves the following problems:

Windows: Fix auto/max cycles algorithm on Windows 7, which helps with stuttering audio.
Mac OS X: Bring a 64 bit version and improve performance.
Linux: Fix the 64bit dynrec cpu core and a lot of compilation problems. Add patches for the WINE Team.

The game compatibility should be identical to 0.74.

We have saved all game fixes for the upcoming 0.75 release, which will enter regression testing soon. This release has been created so you can go back to 0.74-2, in case we happen to break your favourite game in 0.75.

I thought DOSBox development had stopped after 0.74. That's good news :)

Nah, everybody gets the new code. But Windows 7 was affected the most. Almost impossible to get non-stuttering audio there with the old code. Not sure when the old code precisely broke.

Sorry about this but you could say I am slightly excited :-)

Not really playing any dosbox games at the moment, but that's great news nonetheless. And stuttering audio was probably one of the reasons I didn't play a lot of them. I will certainly check this out!

Another sound problem is the delay... (DOSBox 0.74 and all old versions, games: Dragons Breath / Dragon Lord, but other games are affected too)
