Getting data from PP observed tables into PokerTracker

[menchbrew]

How can I get data from Party Poker observed tables imported into Poker Tracker? Does PP write out the hand history files for observed tables?

I'm sure this question is answered somewhere. Is there an FAQ that I can read?

You can not datamine at Party without additional software. Party will not send you hand histories on observed hands as they used to a few months ago.

I know this is a stupid question, but what additional software do people recommend? I tried searching 2+2, but I couldn't tell the good from the not so good.

iWitness: Keeps a minimum number of tables open for observation where you identify parameters for qualifying tables.

FPHG: Grabs hand histories from observed tables.

If your interested in helping beta test software try IdleMiner at www.idleminer.com It does what both of those two programs do together in one easy to use inerface. It also will datamine whenever your computer has been idle for 10 minutes.
