Sun, 7 May 2006 17:55:06 -0400 Just confirmed that old IE on Win2K works a treat. Newer stuff, looks like the screen is doing some kind of constant refresh, never gets to finish loading the page. I think that it is a bit worse with this version, because even simple pages have the problem. Previously, it seemed to be a bigger issue for fuller pages. Anybody else seeing this? -----Original Message----- From: Reynolds,Martin [mailto:Martin.Reynolds@gartner.com] Sent: Sunday, May 07, 2006 3:59 AM To: ecs@netbloc.com Subject: RE: [ecs] 2.3.36 release I am going to give it a try. My Java has been horrible on remote PCs for a while now. I used to load up the old Microsoft Java, which usually did pretty well, but that is getting hard. With the Sun java, many of my screens won't completely load. And occasionally, I lose the entire networking stack which means a reboot of the PC that I am connecting to ECS with. Plus, the Sun Java is horribly slow. -----Original Message----- From: Leland Helgerson [mailto:lhelgerson@surplushunter.net] Sent: Saturday, May 06, 2006 9:00 PM To: ecs@netbloc.com Subject: RE: [ecs] 2.3.36 release Mark - I skipped the last couple of releases. Just loaded 2.3.36 - the improved Java speed is fantastic, very much improved using FireFox anyhow. Leland Leland, lhelgerson@surplushunter.net Remember, if it ain't broke, you're not tryin'!! The sooner you fall behind, the more time you will have to catch up A common mistake people made when designing something completely foolproof was to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools -----Original Message----- From: Mark Gilmore [mailto:mark2@OmnipotenceSoftware.com] Sent: Saturday, May 06, 2006 12:40 PM To: ecs@netbloc.com Subject: [ecs] 2.3.36 release Hi everyone, ECS 2.3.36 has been uploaded to http://OmnipotenceSoftware.com/ECS SETUP.EXE (Win) and http://OmnipotenceSoftware.com/ecs linux.zip (Linux). Update history follows. For instructions, please see "Installing Updates" section of manual. Regards, Mark Gilmore http://OmnipotenceSoftware.com 2.3.36 Note: Unless otherwise noted, all updates are performed automatically by ECS.EXE/REV.EXE. 1) Removed NET-VIDEO.TIMEOUT Property, as it was not needed for video streams (1 second is *always* a timeout). 2) Increased the speed of JAVA image-updates. Hence, NET-VIDEO streams can now support the ECS-imposed max of 10 FPS. The JAVA could support an even higher rate, but I fear that this would place too much of a burden on ECS. WARNING: If you display a NET-VIDEO stream via a *slow Internet* connection, you will be eventually disconnected if ECS can't send the images fast enough. I hope to address this problem soon. 3) Added FILE.FIND and WEB-SITE.FIND Property (to find text in the file). 4) Renamed SERVER-SOCKET.CLIENT-IP to ACTIVE-CLIENT-IP. If you are using this Class, please send your main.cfg for the required updates. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
