Prisma Puzzle Timer

i have heard from some other people, the problem with the not working stackmat is on windows AND lnux systems.. all those people told me, the stackmat is wokin on cct without anny problems, so i think ists a problem oft your timer.. but also i think this timer is workin on every or the most pc's with stackmat fine a lot would change to your timer..
i think the problem with the stackmat should be your next fix.
 
Godmill: Made no difference :( I verified that it was set for recording (ubuntu's gnome alsa mixer) and that it wasn't muted.

Slash: I don't have it plugged into the microphone jack, I have it plugged into line in (as I use my microphone). I just tried it in my microphone jack and it still didn't work. I tried it with all three settings in the Stackmat input device menu.

I know I'm getting a signal, because when I have the stackmat timer turned on and connected to my PC, I get a really annoying sound out of the speakers.

Edit: The setup does work in CCT, by the way.

Edit: I went to the options to verify Stackmat Timer was selected for "Timer Trigger," but when I selected spacebar then back to stackmat then it gave me "Error: Couldn't select stackmat timer. Using space key instead." Then I tried changing the stackmat timer's input and clicking stackmat timer for the trigger, and I didn't get the error for any of the 3 inputs, but the timer still doesn't work.

hey walter, i'm having a problem here, today i open the program as always to do a session, i always do 12 or 20 times per session, and after one time it started to say "Peersonal record: Rubik's cube DNF (mean of 100)", the problem is that it keeps saying it every time i touch the space bar to stop the time, and i think it will be repeating the same thing till i get 100 solves with no DNF :S

Edit: ok, now i have a new mean of 100, but it doesn't matter what time i get, it keeps saying that i have a new record, it doesn't matter if i get a time of 1 minute, it keeps showing the blue box saying i have a new record.

now i realized how useful (for me) are the sessions and the option to add a time manually like in CCT, so i'll be using CCT till you get a new version of your timer, but i will keep watching this thread waiting for the new version and i will try it aswell. btw you have done a really good work and is a nice timer.

It looks like a bug. Can you send me your database?

What do you use sessions for? Should multiple categories share the same session? Should sessions span more than a run of the program?

I'm thinking of a better way to input times manually.
 
The only thing I miss, is that you can insopect de cube 15 seconds, or so long you want.
And sound when you press the space bar or your last 3 seconds the timer counts down.
I put something for the screen so I can't be nervous.

ok i use sessions just to keep apart my progress every time i solve the cube, for example if i do an average of 12 today and tomorrow i do an average of 5 getting better times, the puzzle timer tell me that i have a new best avg of 12 wich is not logical, because i just did 5 solves, and the other thing is because sometimes i like to see my progress so i search the sessions i did some time ago, but in the puzzle timer it shows all the times together.
But maybe other people prefer it that way, is hard to keep everyone happy :P

BTW i attached my data base, i just changed the .h2.db to .txt so i could upload it here

Yeah, I would comment the same. Cubetimer.com and the Bellon cube timer both have very nice "count down" features with variable inspection time. I use those both and it's a good feature to have. I don't use a stackmat, but I can imagine if you do, you wouldn't use this feature. Still, would be a nice one to add.

Also, how can I edit these db files? As they won't import into excel or access for me. I would like to import my Bellon timer sessions.
 
Just a minor request. Could you please place tip moves last in the pyraminx scramble? It's just that the official scrambler has it this way.

Really cool program and thank you very much for releasing the source. Love it!
 
i have a problem adding manually a solution using History -> Add solutions...
It doesn't accept values like 16.04, 15.07, ecc., i mean values starting with zero in the decimal part. It always reverts the values in 16.40, 15.70, ecc., even using the edit button after import.

I'm using the latest mercurial repository version.

That's the expected behavior. The mean/average of N is calculated after each solution and, if it's not greater than the best mean/average of N, the blue box is shown. So it'll keep saying you have a new PB until you get a non-DNF mean of 100.
