Linux software

After some time of using SDRPlay with Linux this is a summary of available programs:
GQRX
Current gr-osmosdr compiled enabling SDRPlay support (lib/sdrplay/sdrplay_source_c.cc copied from SDRPlay GIT repo) is working but sometime I get out-of-sync samples and I need to restart program.
There is support for NR audio process but no notch filter.
I am unable to get GQRX working with SoapySDR. This device don't come up in available devices and there is no documentation on setting it manually
CubicSDR
No problem at all with SDRPlay and SoapySDR. No support of audio DSP (NB, NR, notch). Very young support for hamlib for controlling CubicSDR as a rig. For now the best choice.
HDSDR
Working with Wine and recent API/ExtIO using fake DLL from kazzkutya but not working with new "station name " feature. Unable to control it using hamlib.
SDR-J
not so good for SW reception. Better for FM and DAB/DAB+ reception.
QtRadio
No SDRPlay support. Someone in support group is interested in supporting SDRPlay but. for now, no code to test.
Quisk
No SDRPlay support. But open for supporting different rig. Light program. Is someone interested in integrating SoapySDR/SDRPlay in Quisk?
There is NB, NR and notch filter.
I am not aware of any other program for SDR reception supporting SDRPlay
