New Software- IdleMiner

[stuph]

The update code is rather disturbing. I couldn't figure out what was making my computer beep every 15 minutes or so until I just happened to be by the computer when the "there is an update, please click okay to download" popped up. The box would pop up, beep once, then disappear after a few seconds.

In addition, I didn't have IdleMiner open anywhere, which means to me that somewhere you have a program running keeping track of updates, even when the program itself is not open. Please let me know the name of that process as that sort of thing is pretty shady.

What happend to you was the screensaver was trying to run when there was an update available. When the program ran it wanted to download the update but you were not there to confirm that you would like to download the update. While we are in beta and there are frequent updates this might happen from time to time. After beta this should not be a problem.

Could you do us a favor and send one of the files you are trying to import to [email protected] We are not sure if this is a problem caused by us or pokertracker but we will look into it.

Does IdleMiner have any kind of newtork support?
Meaning, can I run it on multiple machines and it will not mine duplicate tables within the same limit?

[idleminer]

Currently it does not. Right now we are focusing on making it as easy to use as possible for a single computer.

Every time I try to load IdleMiner it says that I need an update. Then I dl the update and the process repeats. Help?

[idleminer]

To solve this problem you need to delete IdleMiner from your computer and redownload. Go to add/remove programs in the control panal and remove idleminer. Then go to the folder idleminer in the programs directory and delete the folder. After you do this it should be fine.

im a little bit confused. i left idle miner running while i was out for the last few hours, with the pt autoimport thing open (not the specific one for party, should i be using that one?) and it didn't import any hands, although idleminer shows that it did 4k hands or whatever.

i fired up the free hand grabber that i used to use and it started working. any idea what im doing wrong?

Double check to make sure that PokerTracker is importing the hands from the same place IdleMiner is saving them. If this is the case, could you send one the the hand history files you were trying to import to [email protected]
