Announcing New Software : PokerTableScan

[TheProdigy]

Juk;

I tried the two different areas thing...

1) Where should I put the files so I can access it from both users? I just did like Documents/ All Users/ etc...

2) When I run it in my 2nd user area(with different credentials) the scan won't work in PTS. Instead of a regular scan, it goes through very quickly, and just goes like 1 of 45 straight to 45 of 45. It doesn't scan anything and doesn't work..


How can I fix this?

I started up PTS and started the settings but when I tried to start a scan it said "the demo is limited to 5 tables. Please register" even though I had never had any tables scan properly. It continued to work and search teh database even though no results were ever displayed. This looks like a fantastic program but I leery to buy it if the demo won't even let me look at some results to ensure it works.

I have same problem.I tested demo only in Manual limit scan and it's VERY slow (almost 2 minutes to scan one table)at my PC (3,4GHz Pentium, 4GB RAM).I have only one 600MB PT access database.

Hi,
I'm sorry about these problems. A lot of users have found that after they compress/vacuum their database, the speed issue disappears. Please look at the PokerTracker help for more information about database maintenance.

PTS:

I was quoted although my query was not related to his, so my question was not answered. My issue is not a speed issue. I never had any results displayed on my screen because the program is telling me to buy the full version (even though I never got to "demo" it).

I have just setup two Admin accounts so they can both read from anywhere on my disk, if you are using protected accounts then I guess it will have to go into MyDocuments (but bear in mind I'm not sure if the run with different credentials things works for Protected accounts - untested by me).

Yes, I had the same problem as this and to get it to work I had to make sure PTS, Party and a copy of AHK were all running with different credentials. Even then it's a bit tempermental to get going (ie: have to leave the user area using windows+L key combination). I had the same problem as you exactly with the rapid scan, but cant remember how I fixed it (I think it was a credentials problem).

I had the same problem, you need to run the Party.exe w/different credentials as well. ( that fixed it for me anyway) GL

[jukofyork]

Is anybody having any luck getting this script to work? Is anybody using it via a networked folder from 1 PC to another?

It's just so temperamental for me even: It takes me about 2/3 attempts at exiting the user area using Windows+L before it decides to keep working, but once it's working then it seems to run ok for an indefinite amount of time.

I wish I knew what it was that makes it work sometimes and not others? Any ideas or improvements to the script would be greatly welcomed, as when it does work it's by far the best table selection tool... [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Just got the app and like it a lot. Few things though.

It would be nice if you could impliment some sort of cache(term?), like Josh did in the latest PAHUD beta, so that all the databases dont have to be scanned each time you use the program. That made PA almost instant when pulling up stats.

It would also be nice to be able to click anywhere on the column to highlight a table rather than only being able to click on the table name. Not a big deal but if its easy to change...

I would also like to have the option to enlarge the window so that I can see more of the list of tables at once.

DISCLAIMER: If these things are already mentioned in the thread sorry. I havent read the whole thing.

Have just updated the script so that tables which you have open allready have are listed like this: "[[TableName]]". Pretty minor change, but it was getting real confusing when I tried using it while 9-tabling.

; ________ Remote PTS v0.3 - by jukofyork & Roland _________

; Steps to get working:
; 1. In a seperate user area start a copy of Party and PTS.
; 2. After PTS is running, run this script in that user area.
; 3. Start PTS doing a continuous automatic scan and apply a filter in PTS if you wish.
; 4. leave this user area by pressing Windows+L keys together.
; 5. In your main (play) user area, start a copy of Party and a copy of this script.
; 6. You should now see "Remote PTS" display whatever PTS is displaying in the other user area.
; 7. Tables may be opened from "Remote PTS" by double-clicking their name (just as in PTS itself).

; Problems:
; a. Make sure you are careful to leave PTS scanning in the other user area and do not return
; to this user area (for some reason this often causing PTS auto-scan to stop working).
; b. If it seems like PTS is not scanning or "Remote PTS" is not grabbing the list, then
; go back into the other user area, stop the auto-scan, reset the table list and restart PTS
; scanning again (you may have to do this a few times to get it working).

; If we can see PTS running then lets go into listview Grabber mode.
IfWinExist, PTS v1.06
{

Loop {

; Delete the old copy of tables.txt (if it exists).
FileDelete, tables.txt

; Grab the contents of the listview and dump to tables.txt
ControlGet, List, List, , SysListView321, PTS v1.06
FileAppend , %List%, *tables.txt

; Sleep for 20 seconds.
sleep, 20000
}

}

; Otherwise, lets go into remote-display mode.
else
{

; 1st Create the ListView with two columns, Name and Size:
Gui, Add, ListView, r10 w650 gMyListView, TABLE|SITE|NBS|TYP|LEVEL|POT|PWD|BUD|FISH|SHA|VPIP |PFR|AFT|WSD|BB|#G|STATUS

; Display the window and return. The script will be notified whenever the user double clicks a row.
Gui +AlwaysOnTop
Gui, Show

; Start displaying the listview.
gosub, PopulateListView
SetTimer, PopulateListView, 20000
return

MyListView:
if A_GuiEvent = DoubleClick
{

;___ A_EventInfo contains the focused row number; insert the correct comlumn number
LV_GetText(TableName, A_EventInfo, 1)

;___ Now we want to focus that table in the PartyListView
WinWait, PartyPoker.com: ;___sets the LastFoundWindow (so we don't have to type in the name over and over again)
;WinActivate, PartyPoker.com:

Loop ;__ see below...
{
; Lets makes sure we have the correct listview in focus.
ControlFocus, SysListView321
ControlClick, SysListView321 ;___ I've had ControlFocus fail here, but this always works

ControlSendRaw, SysListView321, %TableName% ;___ this wasn't so hard, huh? FPRIVATE "TYPE=PICT;ALT=" Just send the name, that should focus the table

;___ now I'm guessing you'll want to open it; since the above method sometimes fails, we double-check:
ControlGet, row, List, Fosused, SysListView321
IfInString, row, %TableName%
break ;__ terminate the loop; else we'd send the name all over again

;__ but maybe there's some other problem, so it's better we only try, say, three times
If a_index = 3
{
TrayTip, ERROR, Unable to open %TableName%,,3
return
}

}
ControlSend, SysListView321, {Enter};___open the table

}
return

GuiClose: ; Indicate that the script should exit automatically when the window is closed.
ExitApp

PopulateListView:
FileRead, List, tables.txt
if not ErrorLevel ; Successfully loaded.
{

; Clear it ready to start again.
LV_Delete()

Loop, Parse, List, `n ; Rows are delimited by linefeeds (`n).
{
RowNumber := A_Index
LV_Add(RowNumber)
Loop, Parse, A_LoopField, %A_Tab% ; Fields (columns) in each row are delimited by tabs (A_Tab).
{
; If this window is displayed allready, then lets blank it out.
TableName := A_LoopField
if A_Index = 1
IfWinExist, %A_LoopField%
TableName = [[%A_LoopField%]] ; v0.4: Make it obvious which tables we have open.

LV_Modify(RowNumber, "Col"A_Index , TableName)
}
}

LV_ModifyCol() ; Auto-size each column to fit its contents.

}
return

}

I'm really enjoying it as well.

I'm still tweaking around with the demo.

I sometimes have trouble with my DB i.e. making different ones active and such.

I'm running a remote PostgreSQL server however. When I "select" a DSN in the DB settings window... It doesn't seem to actually select it.

When I can get a db selected... It rocks.

I think I worked out how to do this after alot off messing:

1. Select the DB you want.
2. Click the activate checkbox or alter the DB settings (which appears to do nothing).
3. Click on Apply button.

I think if you do it this way then it works everytime. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
