Hi Nicolas,

Report:

The scheduler keeps working fine now.

However I discovered yesterday that I have another problem when AirDS is running together with SAM3.
AirDS sometimes takes so much processor capacity that the "SAM3" broadcaster software causes hickups in the audio.
Normally AirDS takes ...

Hi Nicolas,

9.0.6 beta is downloaded and running here.
I'll keep you informed about it's behaviour.
Scheduler is running.

Hi Nicolas,

AirDS 0.9.5 keeps running fine in the systemtray, no freezes.
But the bug in the scheduled PS as I reported before is still there.

I have filled in different text for each day.
After a couple of hours (don't know the exact time, seems to differ) the PS blanks out, as well on the ...

GREAT work Nicolas !

AirDS 0.9.5 upgraded very smoothly taking over all settings.
Send to systemtray works fine.
I'll keep it running, RT from txt file and PS scheduled.
See how the software behaves.

Thank you for all the work you've put into it!!!

I'll keep you informed.

Regards,

Frank

Hello Mark,

I probably don't have to mention it anymore, the bug is still there:

No further bugs found here.

Hi Nicolas,

It seems the program keeps running now.
I have found one possible bug:
If I use Automatic Dynamic PS, the PS screen is blanked after 24hours, as well on the encoder as on the PS preview.
Even if you put it back on static PS, no PS text appears.
Closing the program and starting it up ...

Hi Nicolas,

Version 0.9.4 has frozen on etime (after working well 2 days!), but since I'm not sure what happened there I have not reported it yet.
It happened with non-minimized screen.
The program was on screen, but no RDS was generated, the RT bar on the bottom of the program was showing no ...

I'm running AirDS0.9.4 for a few hours now, minimized, and no freeze so far.
Seems the problem is not there in this version, although you did not change anything to solve the freeze in this version #-o
Running fine now!!
I don't think you have to look into it for the freeze bug anymore, I will pay ...

Indeed as I mentioned a few postings back I am using 0.9.3
It has worked fine all day now, not minimized.

I minimized it a few minutes ago, and as soon as the next song change should appear on RDS, the program freezed again.
So it seems this only happens in minimized mode.

Anyway it would be nice ...

Update!!!

When minimized to the taskbar, the program freezes after a few song changes.
The program cannot be maximized anymore, does not communicate with the RDS encoder anymore, and can only be closed by right-clicking on the taskbar Icon and choose close.

This is the freeze problem as I ...

AirDS not yet online or did I just not look in the good direction

It's a while ago since I tried it, but I just started AirDS 9.3 again to see what the settings were:

- Use static PS : Station Name in only 1 PS window.
- Enable CT
- Only Use dynamic RT from text file. (automatic generated file by SAM3)
- TP=1 - TA=0 - Oldies Music - Music/Speech=1 - Dynamic PTY ...

Hi Nicolas,

I have tried your software for a few days, but after a day or so the program freezed.
Since I have no time at this moment to analyze it, I switched back to RDSMAX3.
Your software certainly looks good, and works fine for as long as it not freezes.
I don't know what caused the freeze, but ...

Hi Mark,

No, I'm running the latest (september) version.
Just compared the setup file I have installed here with the one I just downloaded.
They are exact the same.
I guess there is no update after september.

Anyway, it would be easier if you increased the version number after an update (for ...

Hi,

Of course I have set that option.
Please look at the top of this topic, the RT updates only in the software, but the data is not sent to the encoder automatically.
I have to press the "Send RT and PT" button manually after the text is updated.

The text on the RT text line of the RDS software ...

It's getting quiet in the RDS encoder section ;-)

I just want to report that I found the loose contact problem in the encoder and solved the problem.
An SMD capacitor near to the red capacitor (neighbourhood C19) was only soldered on one side.
Fixed this and the encoder is running great now!

I use ...

Hi Mark,

I'm using 3.0 for just one day now, so I cannot really compare it to 2.0, but I will describe the challenges I met and solved hooking it up to the "Cybermax-RDS-LCD 5W".
Maybe someone may have benefit of it when he meets the same problems.
Don't get me wrong, in my opinion RDSmax3 is a ...

Hello,

Just exchanged my RDSmax2.0 by RDSmax3.0.
The signal coming from the RDSmax3.0 is fine, but I found an annoying bug in the software.

I use auto update RT from txt file, to display info generated by SAM3.
This always worked fine with RDSmax2.0, but 3.0 refreshes the text automatically in the ...
