"Note that the requirement for hardware graphics support may prevent ReefMaster running on some virtual machines." - Does anybody knows at least one VM with DirectX 10.1 support ?

Other than the host partition in HyperV (which doesn't really count, although it is technically a VM), and perhaps HyperV/RemoteFX running on a Windows server (not a likely configuration for RM users), then no. Parallels have talked about support for DX11 for some years now, and hopefully will deliver at some stage, but at the moment the only solution for Mac users would be BootCamp.

We did think long and hard about the DirectX requirement, and perhaps the ideal solution would have been some sort of "fall back" within RM to older tech. However, this "solution" would have been a lot more work, and, since so many of the improvements in v2 actually rely on direct GPU access, the "fallback" would have looked a lot like RM1 (i.e. none of the sidescan, sonar viewer or track display improvements). So the logical conclusion here is that, if you can't run RM2, you should stick with RM1.

What is with the function, "automatic adjustment of the depth"?

For example:
wrong depth points of a track wil lbe set on the correct depth

or

the points,which were set by the depth of the 83 kHz sonar-unit, will be reset by the downscan-data.

If you are referring to "automatic" edge detection, then automatic is probably the wrong word - "assisted" might be a better one. The idea is that RM can make a guess as to the bottom location when the user is in "depth editing" mode, which will make the process of correcting depths on the sonar view quicker and easier. Nothing will be done automatically (i.e. without user input).

Matt, will there also come a mobile app with live sonar charts creating options? :-)

Not as part of this release but I agree - one day that would be very nice!

Whether you plan to use sidescan data for isobaths building? As far as I know only sonar data now used.
IMHO using sidescan data could allow it is considerable to improve the accuracy of isobaths and width of coverage for one pass.
