Hoster 5.04 Bug Reports

[Deedler]

OK, I'm Irish, slight miscount.
62 Instabuttons identified and all visible.
Unchecked down to 50 and got no flag.
At 55 no flag.
At 60 no flag
At 62 Flagged.
At 61 no flag.
As I said, apparently no affect on the running of the programme?

Deeter, great reporting details and digging into it on your side! I've scheduled engineering to review the Instabutton code and see if anything could cause this limit. We'll search for what is causing that error message, which gives a BIG jump ahead to look at the conditions causing this error message.

Since others are not experiencing this problem, it appears this may be something on your computer.

Do you really have a "Pentium" processor? Please click Start button > Control Panel > System and it will show you on the first panel. With WIN7 64-bit and 4GB RAM, this doesn't seem right. I don't think a Pentium can address more than 1 or 2 GB RAM.

Hi Deedler, I have a good bit of Irish blood in me as well, so I know well what you're saying.

Is there any way that we could see a screen-shot of Hoster when this error message is initiated? Just make sure that your cursor arrow is within the dialog so that the correct window is selected, hold ALT and then press the PrtScn key on your keyboard. You'll then be able to paste the image into MSPaint and save as a .jpg. Then you can press the icon that looks like a mountain range in the tool bar when you are posting to insert the image here.

If you already knew the steps to take a screen-shot, my apologies, I just want to make sure you're covered just in case. This may help everyone trouble-shoot the problem.

Deedler,

I have added 62, 63, 64, 65,... Instabuttons on my system, and I cannot find any failure. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the particular audio file you are using for #62. I know it's late over on the Emerald Isle, but I was wondering if you could try something for me. Try replacing that 62nd audio file with a different one, and report back. Also, "The Wheel's" request for a screen shot of the failure would possibly be helpful to MTU. Thanks!

I added some more Instabuttons (5) since I last wrote and now have 75.

I just now opened Hoster and I got the error message "too many Instabuttons defined" for the first time.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it or not, but this caused me to have four lines of Instabuttons across the screen now!

However, after I clicked "OK" Hoster started and as far as I can tell, everything is working as it should, including the Instabuttons...

At 70 Instabuttons, I didn't get this message...

I am going to start unticking them one by one and see where it stops giving this error message...

Ok, I stopped getting the message when I got down to 71...

At 71, I still have four lines of Instabuttons, so I just ruled that theory out!

I went back to 72 and started getting the message again!

All but one of my Instabuttons are full length mp3 songs (unedited). The only one not a song is my applause Instabutton.

Go Figure...

Update. Opened Hoster today with 62 Instabuttons ( all working ) and there was no flag? Added four and got flagged. Unchecked/checked etc. and I am now up to 64 with no flag. ( Three rows with a mixture of songs and sound effects all showing) The flag is a box in the centre of the screen with a yellow triangle and a ? inside the triangle. "Too many Instabuttons defined" beside the triangle and at the bottom right of the box an OK box. When OK is hit Hoster opens and operates normally. Sorry, not computer literate.
According to my control panel - Processor - Intel(R)Pentium(R) CPU.
