I would think any log info past a couple days is useless, so it should auto-start over after that. ]]> RE: Too Big To Fail?

I don't advise people run day-to-day with the debug logging enabled, that's why I haven't bothered to split the log yet. I'll look into it for the next release though. :) ]]> Too Big To Fail?

You asked for a log file for the next blinker episode and I thought, ahah, I know when the problem occurred because I have a date and time of the movie I shot of it. When I went to the log file, to my surprise, I cannot edit it. Not Visual Studio, not PSPad, not ApEdit, not Notepad++ (although the later to load, it ground to a halt and within a minute stopped responding).

Look at this:

C:\Documents and Settings\Robert\Application Data\DisplayFusiondir
Volume in drive C is C Local Disk
Volume Serial Number is 8AB6-3BFE

Um..., maybe it is time to start putting in code to break up log files or to trim by date, like keeping 1 month max? At this point, I'm going to get rid of log file because it is basically useless, but I will keep it for a while in case there's something you want from it. ]]>
