6.3 actually had at least 2 different bugs that I'm aware of, both of which resulted in "duplicate tracks" in specific situations, which had completely different workarounds and code fixes. So you will, indeed, have to be more precise if you want to actually help instead of just venting. The kind of precision that helps is finding an existing bug report in Bugzilla that actually matches the behaviour you're seeing, and posting the any new information you have there. If you can't find a pre-existing bug that matches you're seeing, filing a new one would help so that work can be targeted to solving the bug. Just because something's been complained about in this _user_community_ forum, doesn't mean that the actual dev and support staff who are in a position to fix it are aware of it. > Indeed if this happened in Australia the hardware manufacturer would be > held legally responsible (we have much stricter consumer laws here than > in the US). > > The Slim Device is superb, the software however is faulty and this > needs to be sorted out ASAP. Now is the time that you need to act if you want to be part of the solution. Ranting about consumer protection laws just makes you part of the problem. - Marc _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
