  1. Hi, according to the forum rules (see at the top of each page), you have to sign your posts with your real first name. We like to know to whom we're talking. Thanks. Development of new features in version 1.x has been stopped quite some time ago. Version 2.x will allow the change of the ICAO identifiers.
  2. Hi Brian, on the download page we have some ... http://www.aivlasoft.com/download/index.html
  3. Hi Alfredo, please read this one: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1347 Hope this helps.
  4. To understand the data flow when flying online it must be distinguished between three different data sources: A) Static data: Static data contains information about FIR boundaries and names. It is read once at startup. Static data comes from local data files which originally came from the desktop applications "The Eye" (IVAO) or "ServInfo" (VATSIM). These files can also be downloaded from the AivlaSoft download page. Dynamic data (low refresh rate): The information about active flights/pilots and active controllers is downloaded from the AivlaSoft server and is refreshed every 5 minutes for IVAO data and every 2 minutes for VATSIM data. We cannot change this intervals, they have been prescribed by the online network officials. C) Dynamic data (high refresh rate): "Traffic" data about other aircraft (position, altitude, speed, etc), provided from the pilot client software like "IvAp" (IVAO) or "FSinn"/"SquawkBox" (VATSIM). The pilot client software is sending this data to FSX (via SimConnect) and is read by EFB via SimConnect. Known issues: Everyone can observe online traffic with freeware tools like "VATSpy", "ServInfo", or via the IVAO "WebEye" just to name a few. Using these tools and programs does not always show the identical information like the dynamic data which is downloaded via the AivlaSoft server mentioned above (. This is due to the different intervals which are used to retrieve the latest data. If controllers are using callsigns ( which are not defined in the static data files (A) it can happen that EFB cannot determine which FIR is controlled by the controller. As a result of this an active ATC might not be shown in EFB. SimConnect is used by a lot of add-ons and advanced aircraft too (e.g. PMDG 737 NGX, Majestic Dash 8). If there are too many requests from all these programs, SimConnect gets overloaded. In such a situation it might happen that traffic data is no longer forwarded to EFB and as a result of this EFB cannot show traffic data anymore.
  5. Hi Apostolos, I think that 'overloading' has different causes on different systems because all the configurations are different. Each user should try to figure out which add-on is the cause on its system.
  6. Hi Stephen, You cannot assign a certain runway twice. The assignments you made in the runways.txt file set both runways 4 and 22 to 'nil'. The following two assignments are no longer considered. I guess you should remove the lines with the 'nil' argument.
  7. Thanks Wil for your feedback. "TOU180010" is not supported, therefore you cannot find it in the manual.
  8. Hi did you already try to search for "0xC000014B" using the search function on the top right of this forum? I'm sure you will get a lot of hints. There is also a posting in the FAQ section: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=145 BTW: according the the forum rules please sign your posts with your real first name. We like to know to whom we're talking. Thanks.
  9. Wil, a very detailed explanation of "what is possible" and "what is not possible" can you find in the operations manual, section 5, starting at page 8.
  10. Hi Stephen, which EGSS scenery do you use, stock scenery or UK2000 or other? which provider do you use (Navigraph or Aerosoft)? which cycle have you installed? If you have added some lines to your runways.txt file, can you show the lines herein?
  11. Thanks very much Andy for the explanation. I think it will answer Craig's question. @Craig, I think that the screenshot is no longer required, thanks anyway.
  12. Craig, which scenery are you using? Stock or third party? Would it be possible to show a screenshot? You may also send it to support@aivlasoft.com. Thanks. William, I don't own the Aerosoft EDDF scenery. Could you send me a screenshot? Thanks.
  13. Hi, according to the forum rules (rule #4) you have to sign your posts with your real first name. Thanks. Please carefully read this post from the FAQs: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1260 Hope this helps.
  14. Fatback, according to the forum rules (rule #4) you have to sign your posts with your real first name. Thanks. EFB reads all the airport data (which includes communication services) from the BGL data. If there is no frequency listed at the top of the chart, most probably there is no frequency available for that airport. Are you talking about communication radios or navigation radios? Which airport to you mean? Does it happen when you fly online or offline? Does it happen on all chart types or only on the enroute chart? (if so, then that's OK, on enroute charts you will not see any com frequencies)
  15. Hi Mike, Browsing is not read/write access. There is a difference between "sharing" and "security". If you right click on any folder (in Windows Explorer) select properties and you will get a dialog with four tabs. There you will see a tab named "sharing" and a tab named "security". I'm sorry but I cannot look at the file because I don't have it, I can only read what you have posted above . It's always better to send all the logfiles to support@aivlasoft.com instead of just picking some elements out of such a file. Once again, I'm sure there is no bug in EFB concerning this item. Several hundreds of installations over a network are working properly. Thanks! Much appreciated.
  16. Hi, please, according to the forum rule no. 4 you have to sign your posts with your real first name. Thanks. There is no bug in EFB, it seems to be a problem that the DisplayUnit cannot read the airports file which is located on the DataProviders computer. Maybe there is a problem with the access rights to that folder?
  17. Hi all, after some email conversation with Aerosoft we have learned that the current version of their flight plan data format doesn't support direct (DCT) waypoints. Only the pattern "waypoint - airwayname - waypoint" is currently supported. They also told us that direct waypoints will be supported with some of the next updates. Since EFB allows the creation of flight plans with direct waypoints, we decided to wait creating a flight plan handler until this is also supported by the Aerosoft Airbus Extended flight plan data format.
  18. Kenneth, do you already know 7-zip? It's free and very fast. Also the compression rate seems to be a bit better. http://www.7-zip.org/
  19. Henk, you cannot assign a runway twice. Try to figure out whether FSX runway 02 is 02L or 02R (and FSX 20 is r/w 20L or 20R) using Google maps or any other r/w data source.
  20. Hi Dirk, did you already read this post from the FAQ page? viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1260
  21. Please send your request to support@aivlasoft.com. Your request should contain date of purchase, email used etc.
  22. Hi Nic, Apologizes accepted Please read this post viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1299 and scroll down to "Andydigitals" explanation about the "priority mechanism" of SimConnect. Maybe this will answer your question.
  23. No, version 1 does not support it. Sorry. For version 2 I will try to implement it.
  24. Andrew, either use the internet based route providers (VATroute, RouteFinder) or use any other flight planer which gives you a flight plan with airways. An EFB is not meant as a replacement for a flight planning tool although it has some basic capabilities to manually create a route.
  25. Hi Daniel, what you describe seems to be the well known SimConnect problem. At the beginning you see the traffic and after some time it disappears. If you do a search (see link below) you will find over 100 matches related to SimConnect and disappearing traffic. search.php?keywords=AI+traffic+simconnect Version 2 will no longer use SimConnect, it will use FSUIPC and hopefully the annoying problem will be gone then.
