If you are kind enough to test out this, or have playlinc currently, please send a PM to Rip with your IM that you are using. Thank you.
Also, if you use a separate AIM program, you may want to consider creating a separate SN for use with playlinc, it does not like if you're using say trillian and playlinc at the same time logged in under the same SN -Rip
Hey folks, i need as many people as willing to try to break some software.
Its pretty straightfroward, version 2.09 of playlinc doesnt work, we already know this, thats why we havent released it yet :) There are a lot of crashes that have poped out of the blue and we dont know why. We have theories, and are making changes, but in the meantime, we need a bigger sample base to give us some insight. What we do know is that the crashes are fairly random and hard to track down with a small testing base. All we need is people willing to run the version 2.09, and thrash it. Make it pop up a crash window and simply note exactly what happened before it did that. What you were doing, what window you were looking at, etc.
Based on the quality and quantitiy of info we get back, and how helpfull it is, I may be able to possibly offer some paid testing jobs on the side for some people as well, if its any incentive to you.
The test version can be found here:

as I said, we know it doesnt work, and can have random program exits, we just need more info as to what people are doing when it happens. Beat the heck out of this version and tell me what it does, if you CANT make it crash let me know that as well. Most people here I am sure are well versed in testing software and know all the pertinant info to send me, for those that dont, i need to know your os, video drivers being used, system specs, background software running that may interact, your version of IE, version of media player, what you were doing in the software when it crashed, etc. Thanks to anyone willing to help, and send all your results to mailto:jeckert@supercomputerinc.com
