SleepyHead 0.9.1 Official Beta Release

[Starlette]

Hi Pugsy and Jedimark.

You may disregard my last post. I deleted "Starlette - Cpap" and was able to download cpap data into initial profile, "Starlette".
Hubbs got home from work so we took off right away to go out to dinner, so I didn't have enough time to repost.

Thank you both so much.

Every time I view SleepyHead 0,9.l and close it I get this window on my desktop from Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime Library: (X) Runtime Error - Program C:\ Program Files- SleepyHead.exe R6025 - Pure virtual function call. Can anyone tell me why I get this message all of the time? Should I be concerned about this? Can this be corrected? Thanks.

It might have been one of the things I fixed already for the next update, but I'll break out valgrind again and check for memory leaks just in case..

It won't harm anything on your system... I'm not sure why VC++ runtime is complaining.. I use MingW/GNUC++ to build this, but I'm sure it passes on lots of calls to microsoft libs..

Are you running windows XP by any chance? I haven't done a lot of testing under XP..
Does your system have enough memory? Sometimes on systems with only 512MB the video card steals a bug chunk of system memory.

Whatever the case, would you mind submitting a bugreport to sourceforge so I can track this.. (otherwise I'll forget 15 seconds later.. my memory is like a goldfish)

on an older IBM T42 Thinkpad 1.7Ghz with 1Gb RAM I had semi-lockup on the oximeter page 3d cube , I had to turn off animations in the preferences to get a clear Browse for Spor.

is Spor oximeter file browsing only single file? or does it handle a folder selection for that (I havent tried)
would be handy to do multiple (as the processing is now lightning quick)... I'll also look into manually putting the SPor files into the Spleepyhead location.

another round of applause from me for your good works , small donation pending.

You can probably still mass import .spoR data via the main Import used to pull CPAP data.. hunting down Spo2Reviews directory is not pleasant..
I seriously don't recommend this method, as the main purpose of it in SleepyHead to sync with CPAP data.
(In fact this mass import code is technically deprecated, Spo2Review data is basically worthless without a timestamp. )

The best way to get your oximeter data to sync with CPAP in SleepyHead is to start the oximeter recording at the exact moment the cpap machine switches on the first time in the night.. The next day, do a USB import right after importing CPAP data, and SleepyHead will pick the CPAP starting time as the time the oximeter was switched on..

I have not had anyone report if the current oximetry module works with CMS50E/F's yet.. (other than Live view, which is not as accurate as the above mentioned method. (due to both CPAP clock drift, and the difference from the PC's clock))

Edit: I'm glad I added the option to turn the cube off.
Edit Edit: Although I doubt the cube caused it... Sounds like an event queue hang from something breaking in the spo2 importer.. The cube only draws when it's got nothing else to do.

[jedimark]

I pushed an auto-update test for windows.. It was more for testing the updater, but it does also fixes a couple of bugs in the beta..

EDIT: Typical... I'll have another go tomorrow.. This update really did break the updater..

Ignore any network error messages on checking for updates, I temporarily deleted the update.xml file off the server to avoid screwing up further.

If anyone already downloaded that 0.9.2 update automatically, sorry for the stuff up.. The version it upgraded to will work, and has bugs fixed, but you'll have to manually update next release..

I don't know how to submit a bugreport in Sourceforge.

Gabe, got to https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=2 ... unc=browse and click on Add New. Then describe exactly what you were doing, what happened and, if it is not obvious, why you consider it a bug. Provide all error messages and as much technical information as you can relating to the bug. The more information, the better.

You probably need to create a SourceForge account before you can add a new bug report.

While you are at it, if you have not done so already, go to https://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=513997 and join one or both of the SleepyHead mailing lists. Posting to the appropriate mailing list (-devel for geeks; -users for "normal" people ) is the best way to get Mark's attention.

Thanks, Jimbo. I appreciate all of the information you have given to me.

Mark,

Currently: Under the Daily Table, Statistics, if I hover over the words "Pressure, Minute Vent, etc.", we get the Average.
Humble request: If there can be an option in Preferences to add a column for Mean (Average) next to Min so I can see it instead of hovering.

Again, just a humble request.

Looks fantastic Mark! Nice job.

One bug I still see (I had notified you about this so look for our emails) is when you select APAP for CPAP Mode in the user profile. When you set it up, it gives you two boxes for the range. When you go back into the user profile, it only shows the lower pressure box. I don't think this is anything major, but should be fixed.

Personally I prefer (weighted) Average over Median.. but average isn't always available on summary only days, where median usually is. This more affects ResMed users though.. PRS1 users don't see summary only days that often (only happens sometimes when they leave the card out by accident) :-/

I guess consistency is the main issue here..

Another problem is it's hard fitting extra stuff in those tables. I'm been trying to avoid having to make it any wider.

A preference option to choose between the Median & Average is probably the most practical for now. ?

Okay.. I think I procrastinated going back to it because it ignored BIPAP & ASV users, and I needed to think of how to make it cater for them too.

That data is saved in your Profile, but it's kinda not really used for anything yet.

Some of it is a good candidate to show on reports, but I was waiting until I had an editable template system for report headers.
You can probably guess the how much fun is involved in designing reporting code.. I'd rather be filling out TPS reports..

What version is recommended for Mac users at this point? The message on sourceforge has me wondering if I should update to 9.1 at this point or if I should hold for a couple days?

- thanks - Roger

[Breathe Jimbo]

Roger, always upgrade to the latest version, period.

Don't bother reporting bugs or problems with outdated versions.

The message on sourceforge has me wondering if I should update...

What message? If someone reports a bug or other problem, it is helpful for others to try the same thing and report whether they do or do not see the same thing. If you are afraid of bugs, wait for version 1.1.1.

[rogerconnelly]

Thanks Jimbo - I was referring to this comment on the "main page" for sleepyhead on sourceforge:

"Mac users: Jimbo technically beat me several times getting the build ready for your platform, but I kept breaking things on him.. Tomorrow hopefully.. Users of the previous 0.9.0 mac build may suffer a few cantenkerisms.. The autoupdater should pick up the new version in a day or two. I guess we'll have to wait and see if it works properly "

No fear of bugs here - I'll download the latest mac installer and give it a whirl (I would never report bugs on outdated versions either).

[jedimark]

Lol.. I forgot to update the wiki

[rogerconnelly]

I'm glad to hear that's all this was - thanks JediMark!

Thanks! However, to test the updater, open 0.9.0, click on the Help menu, then click on Check for Updates. Afterward, you can check the version number (hopefully 0.9.1 after the updater runs!) by clicking on the SleepyHead menu, then clicking on About Sleepyhead.
