Considering the above-mentioned, would you treat this as a direct 8ve?Direct fifths and octaves are generally permitted when one of the voices moves conjunctly (between soprano and bass, the soprano voice must move conjuncly, preferibly by semitone).
Direct 8ve

Thank you for the file, jancivil. Good tips in there.
I liked especially the introduction explaining the evolution of the relative importance of hidden 5th/8ves which seems to have been dependent of the evolution of music (nº of voices). Like so many things in music theory, it has an historic explanation so many times disregarded from theory books.
