DigitalWatch 2.0.1.* Options

[nate]

New Version - DW 2.0.1.3

Changes

• Implemented Settings.xml, including:
  • All six application priorities. Low, BelowNormal, Normal, AboveNormal, High, and Realtime. AboveNormal is now the Default.
  • Window settings to remember Fullscreen, AlwaysOnTop, the Size, and the Position of the window when you close it and restore them when the app is next loaded.
  • Startup volume and mute setting.
  • Startup zoom, zoomMode, and overlay color controls settings.
• Fixed a crash caused when the window spans 2 screens by 1 pixel.
• Fixed menu not hiding after changing channels.
• Fixed channel reorder not saving the channels file.
• Lots of memory leaks removed.
• Added critical sections for most vectors to improve multithreading safety.
• Improved OSD efficiency when displaying long lists (ie. the frequency list).

I've removed all the memory leaks that occurred during ussual operation or scanning, changing channels, showing and hiding menu's etc.
There still might be the odd leak in functionality i didn't test, but at least all the stuff that happens regularly is fine.

The settings.xml file will be created with default settings the first time it's run.

I had some trouble with Ch9 (SD. Havn't really tested HD) stuttering after a few minutes and eventually stalling entirely. Ch9 is the only channel that it happens on. The cpu is only running at 30-40% but I found that it doesn't happen when running DW at above normal priority, so i've set the default priority to above normal. Hopefully that will keep things running smoothly for everyone.

heres something interesting, with the machine that works, opening the program and hitting enter at the menu brings this in the log file
