You're right.. Capitalising doesn't work.. I think they're 'lower-cased', as entirely different words do work..

Changing doesn't work.. Bug?

Great suggestion! It'll be done for the next version.

Hmm, strange. I'll need to have a look at it. Unfortunately, I still have to install all my other programs first since my PC got formatted yesterday. (No worries, all my data is safe so Countdown Live isn't lost!)

sorry what?

@Eddie:

I've explained it to Matti, so I guess he'll take care of it.

Apparently the words for the units don't get applied at all. I haven't tested this yet, but I'll certainly investigate this.

EDIT: Oh dear, that was a terrible bug there. What was I thinking while coding that? I don't know.

To keep it simple: due to a change I made in the preferences structure, the unit words were no longer saved properly in the temporary object (used during run-time) and the registry (used for permanent storage). The good news is that I found were it went wrong and that you can rest assured that this is fixed in the next version. I apologize for the inconvenience that you'll have to live with this issue for the time being, as I haven't even been able to start a beta testing period yet. There is just too many things to implement and to fix.

I configured my preferences as the way I want but I guess the counter doesn't update itself automatic... As for days it is ok but I would like to see the minutes and seconds change on their own too in my msn status. is there a way to do that I wonder? because if the seconds won't change there isn't a meaning in putting a counter lol =)

@bluretina:
That's quite odd, the seconds and minutes are supposed to update properly. Please check the update interval in the Settings tab, maybe it's too high and thus it doesn't change to often? 1 to 10 minutes is a good setting. Also make use of the preview area: it gives you a good idea if it'll work like you want it to work.

The update interval is set to be at least 15 seconds to prevent flooding the server with status updates which will be ignored after a while when it occurs too often. Therefore it simply can't update the countdowns every second - the server would simply ignore any further update requests! If that's what you mean...

i just updated the script and got this error:

That is because the Spanish translation file never got updated. You can, however, translate the script yourself. All the instructions you may need are on this webpage.

Good luck
