OK, let's start experimenting here :)

Here's a poll and an open thread regarding this new forum.

Please let me know if it is slow or if you encounter connection errors.
If so, indicate also in which part of the world you live.

Thanks

Hi Massimo,

thank you again for your great and hard work with QLC+ and also the Migration to this new forum :!:

I think phpbb got more opportunities then the SF-Forum.

As you asked, i got some connection problems here from Germany - it took 3 times to register successful,
due to some connection loss. Also it take several times to log in the forum.

Regards
Heiko

Hi Heiko, and welcome here ! :)

Thanks for the feedback. I feared so.
I am already in contact with the hosting support team, but they're "closed" on weekends :o
Tomorrow they'll hear me ! :twisted:

Hola from Australia!

So I am having all kinds of problems with the new site. Registered fine, but now trying to download the new version 4.8.5, the RPi 7z file is corrupted, trying to upgrade via the network upgrade package fails (cannot download checksum, aborting) and downloading the new Windows .exe file was halted by Avast having apparently detected DRep trojan.

OK none of the downloads from qlcplus.org work for me - they all finish but are not the complete file size. I've had to just download from sourceforge and that worked fine.

I'm sorry to hear that.
I am aware there are connection issues with this new hosting. Basically quite often the connection is dropped on the server side.
I do hope they will fix it ASAP, otherwise it's another pain in the ass.

The files on Sourceforge are exactly the same of the qlcplus.org site, so you probably just discovered you have a trojan horse in your Windows PC :o

As for the RPi image, since it's quite a big file, I suggest to use a download manager and not the browsers to download it. A proper download manager can resume a download in case it got interrupted, while a browser can't.
In Linux I suggest to use wget. In Windows you can probably use jDownloader. On OSX I don't know.
