Beta 1.5.27 released

**Dr.Woo** · 01-29-2006 05:14 PM

A follow up note...upon further investigation of these funny folders showing up...

I have determined that the tracks contained within them are a fragment...perhaps only the ending, of a recording which is in the correct target folder. It is as if during the recording, TT cut the recording (in the middle somewhere) to the target folder, then created a new folder named with the strange mix of original channel number and some other channel name, and finished recording that track in that folder. This was determined by pulling the odd folder track out and copying it to the correct target folder. In every instance, the track by the same name already existed! Checking the 2 tracks, it was clear that the oddly named folders contained the continuation of the recordings originally saved in the correct target folder.

Mind you this was not affecting every track recorded...but out of 5 hours, there were probably 6 to 12 tracks split up this way.

I un-installed and then re-installed 1.5beta27, and will see what happens...

We are seeing a couple other reports of these "strange characters"

It could be something in the stream.

We will look into it.

Same thing happening here. I had 1.4 installed then in installed the offical 1.5 release. Could not save more than 1 or 2 songs without 1.5 stopping recordings . Installed the 1.5.27 Beta, which recorded >1 sogn, but partial recordings were being stored in directories that have the correct XM channel number but the wrong station name.

This seemed to happen regardless of whether or not PerfecTrax option is selected. Back to 1.4 for me!

Will send a bug report.

I didn't check to see if it is still happening after my re-install yesterday. If it does I'll send a report. It was a very strange thing to have the correct channel name attached to some wild folder...XM

I reported this exact thing in 1.4. I would quote the thread but the dag gum whole thread is gone, sheese!

Anyway I was getting up to 20 correct channel numbers with other channel names. Each of the incorrect folders would have 1-3 songs recorded, and the same song in the correct folder. So this behavior is not new at least for me anyway.

This issue was corrected in 1.5 and verified that it was corrected. It has to do with the Stream and we have to program to compensate for it. It looks like they have changed things again, that is why it is showing up again.

I am using the new beta, am having trouble with shutting TT down, not responding, I can get it to close after awhile if I keep at it. Windows asks me if I want to send a report to windows, I have had this problem with all versions. I do not have to shut my system down.. This seems to happen most ofter after I have TT running for a long time. Sirius user.
