As per my 19 Nov 2007 thread, 'Womble update check doesn't work',
news:u323k3llck15kqndgd6lvhhv316iqep7ig@4ax.com
Womble acknowledged that this was a bug. The update facility hadn't
been working at all. They said it was now fixed. But I'm still unsure.
Having reverted, my release is 'April 2007'. If I use Check for
Updates I now see:
---------
A newer version is available. (total size: 2.04 Mb)
30/04/2007 Update
1. (BUG) Export crashes when changing PAR in video encoder expert.
2. (BUG) MPEG Format Converter tool crashes for certain MPEG-2 TS
file.
3. (BUG) Problem opening MPEG-2 PS files with invalid NV-Pack data.
4. (BUG) MBS Scanner hangs when scanning movies with PCM audio.
---------
Q1: Why am I getting this if I already *have* the April edition?
Q2: Why am I not being offered the very *latest* version, i.e.
October? (I wouldn't install it, of course, because of the bug I
described in my thread of 29 Nov, 'Womble - black frames in output
monitor' news:rr7tk35dkb3okd9c33ur73m70g3t3idbtn@4ax.com )
Q3: I did at least have my first ever automatic message when I started
the program this morning, helpfully informing me that there was an
update. So I tried it, expecting it would probably take me to the Oct
version again and that I'd have to re-install April (or maybe July).
But my version still shows April. (BTW, it would be sensible IMO if
Womble put a *day* in that Help|About message, not just the month.
There may be more than one release in a month.) So my question: is the
update actually working anyway?
All the above makes me suspect Womble still haven't thoroughly tested
this. Could other Womble users check this out please?
