Bug, or am I and idiot?


I noticed two issues last night during testing. I may be missing something, but I figured I would ask:

One, REW never seems to save my settings. The soundcard cal is always there, but I have to reenter the microphone cal file and set the input to the MobilePre manually each time. So it's saving settings, but only half way.

Two, there was a lockup when I had a filters window open, several measurements, took a new measurement, and then tried to optimize the filters. Just a lockup of REW, not the whole computer. I am pretty sure it was a java issue, not REW, but I thought I'd mention it.

Thanks,
Anthony

I've never seen or heard of this before...... unless you're perhaps using a mac system

Re: Bug, or am I and idiot?


It obviously wasn't always a problem, b/c it saved my calibration file. I looked around for a "Save Settings" button, but did not see one. I am reasonably certain I have write permissions to my My Documents folder.

It just came up last night, and was easy to work around, so it's not a big deal. I will play around more tonight and see if I can't isolate the problem better.

Settings are saved on exit, on Windows systems they are written to the registry in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\room eq wizard

Re: Bug, or am I and idiot?


I'll check and see. Maybe I accidentally locked out the registry or some other weird permissions thing. I did downgrade my "Sound A/V" account on the laptop from Power User to regular user. But that was a long time ago and I'm just now seeing this problem.
