Event - Connect Encoder intermittent

English mAirList 6.x

I’ve noticed in 6.1 that if have a scheduled event to “Connect Encoder” it seems to not connect a lot of the time. I’ve found this applies to 6.0 as well.

So, I tested this with an event 10 minutes from say now. Time come, encoder does connect. I manually hit disconnect. I reset the time to 6:30am the next morning.

I checked at 6:55 and it has not connected. In fact, if I look at the Event Scheduler it says it was executed at 6:30am today, but if I look at the System log, no entry. (A later event, 6:45 to set Automation On is ran and also logged).

What puzzles me is the Event Scheduler says it ran (last run time) yet the System log shows no entry. No error, no failure, just nothing.

Any thoughts? If I manually click “Connect” on the GUI widget, it connects fine.

Thanks

Never heard of this problem. Actually the action does the exact same thing as clicking the button…

procedure TEncoderConnectAction.DoExecute(iDefaultPlaylist,
  iTimeOffset: integer);
begin
  DoGetEncoder.Connect(true);
end;

I’ll do some tests. I’m wondering if I manually disconnect it confuses the logic.
