I have a Core i7 CPU and I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium.  It looks like the fallback timer is running as slow as the regular timer is running fast, so like one second every 10 minutes or so.  Not a huge difference, but definitely noticeable in a long run.  It could be that my system clock is not synchronized, because the windows time server that it is defaulting to is timing out.

Strangely enough, I went and synched my watch with my system clock, and my system clock is actually going slower than my watch, but WSplit is going faster.  Looks like my computer fails at keeping accurate time.

if i remember right that measn either your power supply on yoru cpu is going bad or youre entire MB . . . cant remember i was told this like 8 years ago what the difference was

Waiting hurts my soul...
As long as it's consistently faster or slower, the times are still comparable to themselves. You just can't use those times to compare to other people accurately. It shouldn't prevent you from improving your time though.
Yeah, the timer is definitely consistent; just consistently fast. It wouldn't be that much of a problem to just adjust the final time to real time, but it would still be nice to figure out why it's going fast in the first place, especially given that my system clock is actually running slow.

The primary timer method doesn't access the system clock directly, it uses a Windows performance counter. It's probably impacted by the same fundamental inaccuracy that's slowing your system clock down but just showing different symptoms. From what I read it sounds like it could definitely be a voltage issue like Kuhl said. It can also be in the power source itself though, before it even reaches the power supply, like if it's on a wonky UPS or something.
well now it seems to be running at normal time with fallback timing enabled, at least after 20 minutes.  I'll leave it running for a while to see if it stays that way.  The only thing I changed was the server that the system clock was being synchronized to.  No idea if that's actually what fixed it or not, though.
Hey, I have a problem with WSplit. I can't seem to pinpoint the cause but on this machine WSplit slowly uses more and more memory to the point where it was using 1.1GB of RAM in only a couple hours.

Yet on my other computers it runs fine with no sort of memory leak and little to no climbing at all.

Ouch that's really alarming, can you describe the system for me? It sounds like a .NET garbage collection problem of some kind, do you know if you have 3.5 or 4.0 installed? I'm not seeing any memory leakage on either netbook or desktop after 2 hours so far on my end.
Ah, I think I figured out the problem. I'm pretty sure the culprit was gdipp. After disabling it everything seems to be fine.
I'm using WSplit recently. It's very useful Smiley
btw, I have one request.

Could you add "Always on Top" setting on Detailed View window? Currently there's no such setting on it.
I want to be top both window. thanks.

It's already done for the next version, which is just about ready to put out once it's been tested a bit more.
I ran into a small problem. I noticed that the timer disappeared for me on the stream between around 5 and 20 minutes (so it works 0-5 min and then from 20 min onwards). That corresponds to the screen saver kicking in (at 5 min) and the screen turning off (20 min, not sure if that's the English term). Is this known and is there a solution ? I can of course just change around the screen save parameters, but I prefer not too.

That would be a screen capture limitation, not related to the timer. If the screen capture software can't "see" the screen, it can't capture it. I doubt there's a workaround short of disabling the screensaver. The only other thing I can think is that you could try a different screen capture driver (i.e. if you're using xsplit's built in, you could try SCFH DSF instead). Sorry I can't help you here :(.

New version is ready (I hope). Significant changes include:

- visual update
- added: support for segment icons
- added: drag-drop file loading and an "open recent" menu
- added: clock resizing/scaling
- added: segment details in wide mode
- added: start offset saved with file
- added: improvement to the fallback timer and automatically detecting when the primary timer appears unreliable
- added: always showing the final segment in detailed mode is now optional
- fixed: missing "always on top" setting for the "advanced detail window"
- fixed: configure and run editor windows appearing behind the timer window when always on top is set
- fixed: crash when pressing "save" if the loaded file is read only

download link: WSplit 1.3.1.1 (new version available, this version is now available in the "Old" folder)

I've included icon packs for Mega Man 1-7, 9, 10, and X1-X3, but you can make and use your own icons as well (regular JPG/BMP/PNG files should all work).

PM me if there are any problems.

Edit: updated to 1.3.1.1 to fix select columns/always on top problem reported by 0xwas
Oooh, pretty... Well seeing as how you have already implemented some way of loading images, I have a feature request. Could you make it so that you can replace run title with an image? It's hardly an essential feature, but would be nice to have anyway.

I must say, this is an excellent program. Good work, Wodanaz!
Very nice. I'll try to use when one problem is fixed. Smiley

When setting Always on top for advanced detail window (or timer), Select Columns window appear behind those.

Icon packs ?! I <3 you ! Smiley
Fucking Weeaboo
I like the new look.

I've got a couple of suggestions for you on how to improve things:

1. Give an option to auto-load the last used list.
2. Save the program's position so that when it is loaded the next time, it'll start in the same spot (great for people that use XSplit).
3. Minor, but can we have an option to define the width?
Quits halfway
If you start Wsplit before Xsplit, it'll grab the screen region for the new Wsplit wherever it is.

After using it a bit, I like the new look and options. The offset thing is neat, a friend and I trade our split files, but he always starts his timing 10 seconds before mine, so this is a nice way to fix that (both of us refuse to change where we start our splits).

For wide mode, I'd request that the timer and run title/status bits be placed next to each other, but it's no big deal if you don't do that. Personal preference would be to have timer far left, then run title, the the splits. Auto-loading the last list would be great, as well (although open recent is really fast).

Thanks for making this, it's awesome.
Fucking Weeaboo
Good to know, Aftermath.  Though it still would be a nice option to add, and it's not hard (if it works like VB, all you'd have to do is grab the left and top form variables and boom, you're done).

One other idea I thought of that would be nice - a little display showing whether or not Global Hotkeys is turned on or not.  Maybe a little green/red circle up by the title?

This version is excellent, I can officially stop using my cheesy MM10-only timer.  Great job Wodanaz, thanks!

edit: I'm poking around it in Reflector.  .NET developers respect!

This version added support for loading a split file from the command line (and also drag-dropping files onto the exe). So what you could do is make a shortcut to wsplit and add the path (relative or full) to the target, such as:
Code:
Target: C:\Some\Path\WSplit\WSplit.exe splitfiles\megaman3


Would this be satisfactory or would a "load most recent file on startup" checkbox in configure be better?

On the width, would you want to input an exact width manually or would it be better to auto-save the width you set when you resize with the mouse? I'll probably put all this in, just have to play with the nicest way to display the hotkey on/off indicator.

Thanks. This is actually the first thing I've done in C#/.NET. Hopefully it's not too shoddy (I spent a decent amount of time trying to optimize the paint function since it runs up to 100 times per second).

While either would work, I think doing a checkbox would be more user friendly.

Saving the width with the playlist would be best, I think.  That way if some need more/less width then others, that can be done.  I don't think doing a # entry is necessary - for me, visually seeing the width I needed worked the best.

I don't think you need a hotkey on/off indicator. As far as width and position settings, my vote goes toward inputting the exact number in a config setting.

Thanks for the shortcut loading tip, doing that now.
