Connection problems with the Handy

Do you use bluetooth, and with an usb dongle?
If so you might want to check the device settings to see if there are conflicting devices. Last windows update caused my motherboard bluetooth to be turned on again and cause conflicts (5s after connecting devices would disconnect again). Once that was turned off, it worked fine again.

If using a direct connection, you might want to try to use:

To me it gives better error feedback. Although it has a few downsides:

  • anoying to set up initialy
  • has no limiting, so scripts going severely above the max speed will cause a desync error (red blinking error on device)
  • videos must match script names or one of the 2 isnt loaded

For debugging potential issues having several programs to run scripts does help. If my handy is showing random errors, the first thing i do is check if scriptplayer also has the issue (usualy it also does - last time i had issues, the script conversion was repeatedly failing as the site that converted it was overloaded).

Machine timeouts are most likely to happen when scripts are too large to be loaded.
