Just get a media player supporting wasapi/exclusive like Musicbee or Foobar.
I don’t want to hear a email notifications when listening to a string quartet!
I want to play all recordings I have at their native sample rate. No need to have it resampled to the system default as dictated by the shared mode setting.
Is shared mode bad? No, if you have a 24 or 32 data path to your DAC you won’t notice the difference (except for the email notifications). However, if you play recordings with a level close to 0 dBFS and resample, there might be audible distortion. This can be cured by using a EQ offering a pre-amp function.
