since reading *anything* at all on the front page, including all the discussions of sleepyhead at present seems to be too much work.

SleepyHead is my preference for my S9 machine but you can use ResScan if you want. Discussion and links for the latest Windows and Mac versions are on the main forum page...just look for posts made by Jedimark
This explains how to get ResScan

Windows only though. No Mac version available. If you want to use it on the Mac you have to put Windows on the Mac.

Masochists with a lot of patience.
I keep it up to date just to check it out and maybe help if someone has a problem but I only download to it once a week or so. It isn't what I go to if I am in a hurry..that's for sure.

I have attempted innumerable times to download the sleepyhead software, but consistently get an error message of Qt5core.dll missing, try again.

Any suggestions from the computer savvy here ? (Which I am not)

Exactly which version of SleepyHead are you downloading and trying to install?
And which operating system is on your computer? Windows, Mac or other?
Are you getting the message when you attempt to click on the SleepyHead application.exe file after you have unzipped the downloaded files?

Pugsy, you must be tired. ResScan doesn't work well with PR machines, but Encore might.
I agree I like Sleepyhead better, especialy 0.9.8-1

Sorry...had a brain fart with Resmed on my mind. Happens fairly often when I get too many irons in the fire.
I goofed.



Will leave the ResScan information link in place though just in case someone with a Resmed reads this thread and wants to try ResScan.

just refer to 'em as "Rescore, the offical (as appropriate) mfgrs software for masochists"

True masochists use Encore Pro.

ResScan really isn't that bad, although I never can seem to navigate through the data very well. If I'd never seen SleepyHead, I might think it's OK. Maybe it's not that hard to navigate through once you get used to it.

BTW, does anyone else get the feeling Encore Basic is going to be allowed to wither on the vine? It seems they haven't updated it for the newer models in quite some time.

Very true.

I don't know about Encore Basic...I think that it isn't so much that Respironics has abandoned it but it's just more difficult to find.
There is a 2.4 Basic version that works with the 960 model and Windows 8.1 (and older)...got it a while back.
There very well could be a newer versions but I can't get my grubby little paws on it. My resource at Respironics dried up.

Someone else had the same problem. Try looking here. viewtopic/t98918/I-cannot-get-the-Sleep ... -work.html
Make sure to pay attention to what jedimark has to say since he wrote the program.
