Ongoing Issue with PDW
« on: 09 Sep 2014, 09:26:28 »
I have an ongoing issue with PDW where it stops working after a few days of decoding. I receive my pages through a discriminator tap and it goes through the computers sound card. I'm receiving 100% on average up to 3 days. On that 3rd day or which ever day it is, the program just stops decoding any messages from that point on. It is not until I close and reopen the PDW program that it will decode properly again. When I do that it goes back to decoding 100% until 3 or so days goes by and it does it again.

Any clues, ideas, solutions? I assume it's a setting on my computer that I should fix.

Thanks

Hi,
I found that my XP machine also randomly stopped after a day or so. I worked around it by scheduling an automatic restart at 1am every day.
Cheers

I restart mine weekly due to same issues. I assume some buffer or something like that fills up and causes it to stop decoding.

You can setup windows to do an automatic scheduled restart but you must make sure you have windows setup to automatically restart PDW as well.

Does the "buffer overrun"-bugfix from v 3.12 help?
