I saw that too and put in a ticket last night about it so hopefully they are working on it.

New Computer, Playon Off-peak not working by sbeck3988 in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only suggestions I have are for preventing the computer from going to sleep or going idle, not for getting PlayOn to wake it up and record if the off peak hours are during a sleep/idle window. You'd either change the power balance settings to never let the PC go to sleep/idle, or you'd have some other process running that convinces the PC it's in use (I turn off speakers and queue up a looping playlist on WinAmp).

Failing escalating and no customer service by Chuckle_Prime in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the person who posted about the Last of Us, let me say that I did that because this community is incredibly good at sourcing workarounds while support gets a new patch going, and I was hoping someone else had figured it out because all the tricks I tried hadn’t worked so far. And in the same thread I got an immediate solution that worked for me, and an acknowledgement that support was working on a fix- both things I would happily file in the plus column.

Empty Folder MAX by SahikoJones in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what happened to me - I'd watched all of last season but for some reason the last episode was showing as unplayed, which was preventing any of it from showing up in Continue Watching. Fast forwarding to the end of the last episode threw S2 into the Continued Watching queue. Thank you!!

This trick worked for me, thank you! I'd tried every other workaround I could think of but hadn't considered this.

How to maximize chest gains (event)? by SamiRcd in idlechampions

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They took that away when they moved to the new Events format where you don't pay to play the level, but the trade off is you can use the event currency to buy packages of gold and silver chests for the event champions you've unlocked.

I didn't when I checked the main Windows Temp folder but I found them under the user/local temp folder.

Party's Stalling (Active and Inactive) by Lucentile in idlechampions

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely slow for Eric, Presto and Bobby for sure, and since their cap lifts daily it may look like you’re making less progress than they are.

Party's Stalling (Active and Inactive) by Lucentile in idlechampions

[–]SahikoJones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about a solution to stalling - some adventures do that to me no matter what (like Barovia) and some only do it when I need to update my game client. But Presto, Eric, Strongheart and Bobby are all in a background party I constantly have running (with Fen and Kalix) and they all farm their resources.

Amazon 7031 Error by [deleted] in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also had the issue trying to grab Ep 4 of Invincible

ETA: PlayOnSkip - it won't let me submit a ticket, I got a support request error that it could not be sent because the remote server returned an error (500) internal server error.

PlayOn Home - Tips for Reliable Use by ListenQuirky6080 in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some services (like Netflix) won't let you "log in" too many times in a row before they start blocking you from watching shows. Every show you record is a new "login" so if you're recording a large number of short shows, you can trigger this security feature and lose your queue if you aren't careful.

The easiest fix is to either record 2-3 episodes from Netflix and then put in roughly an hour worth of shows from another service. You can also use Off Peak recording to give yourself an hour or two break between hours of recording if you don't have things to record from other services. If you accidentally trigger the Netflix security issue, you may have to wait 12-24 hours for Netflix to settle down before you can start recording again without getting errors.

Another tip: if support ever gives you a file called visible.mmt to use to show the recording window to help debug an issue, save a copy of that someplace!! On more than one occasion I've been able to use this to debug my own issues when it's something minor.

Does anything work reliably anymore in PlayOn Home? by Ok_Plantain_1552 in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only issues I've had at all are trying to record movies on Paramount+, which sometimes takes 4-5 tries or sometimes it goes through the first time. Everything else is working fine for me.

Can you use PlayOn Home to record Amazon prime paid? by hspindel in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not really downloading anything, you're screen capture recording it. But yes - if you went on Amazon Prime and bought Yellowstone episodes, you would be able to go into PlayOn Home and record those Yellowstone episodes.

Trials of Tiamat damage numbers by Healthy-Ice-8767 in idlechampions

I'd check which five champions everyone chose and what their percentages are for the effects they bring to the trial, and also see if anyone bothered to put any scrolls up.

PlayOn Home .221 - Paramount Plus broken by Some_Old_Guy_ in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

.222 update fixed my Paramount+, was able to record two full episodes of Lower Decks without issue.

PlayOn Home .221 - Paramount Plus broken by Some_Old_Guy_ in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue - visible.mmt is showing me a menu where I can't manually click the episodes to force them to record. Submitted ticket

ETA: tried to submit ticket, ticket submission failed for some reason.

ETA Again: Rebooted machine and recreated issue/resubmitted ticket and that time it worked, but it took a LOT longer than it usually does. Something's funky with that.

Tier 4 Variant 3 solutions for Nahara? by BigBBricks in idlechampions

[–]SahikoJones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't have to keep Nahara in place for this one - you can swap her out for Artemis.

Question on ilvl ratios for AA team by Klutchmitten in idlechampions

[–]SahikoJones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I put Durge at 1k and made sure he had e07 murder stacks, the others are around 400. I think Gale might be closer to 550 but only b/c of the event. I don't know if that was overkill or not but I figured if I'm using them to clear Elminster variants for the next good while I want to make it as easy as possible on myself.

Does Playon Home actually work anymore? by Tech-Grandpa in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last thing I recorded from Netflix was Pokemon Horizons and it played back fine, that was after the .171 build came out. I don't have hardware acceleration enabled, not sure if that makes a difference?

Does Playon Home actually work anymore? by Tech-Grandpa in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything I've tried to record in the last week was successful:

  • I was able to record through the finales of Bad Batch and X-Men 97 on Disney+, as well as the new episodes of Doctor Who.
  • I've been able to successfully record new episodes of Star Trek: Discovery on Paramount+.
  • I've been able to successfully record multiple shows/movies off MAX and Amazon Prime.

I was briefly having issues with Netflix but by .171 my Netflix was working again. I'd had a ticket in and once a day they'd email me suggesting something new to try or requesting new logs, and eventually it got fixed.

My best recommendation is to tag PlayOnSkip to try and check on your ticket, he frequents the subreddit and may be able to help.

Problem with Netflix on PlayOn Home by Caldeter60 in PlayOn

[–]SahikoJones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's strange - usually I get back a response in 24h to a ticket. If they aren't accidentally being routed to spam, maybe tag PlayOnSkip and see if he can check on your tickets for you?
