Ultra 2: online check fails

[zehd]

Last week I rebuilt my dev machine and then tested last release of Ultra 2. It kept failing and saying that both epgtools and theTVdb were offline.

I would click test over and over and then something clicked and it started working.

Because I new that my net connection was on, and working, I just set the 'Online Check' to 0 ms and clicked 'set'

I didn't have a problem after that.

The online check was designed when the TVdb was flaking out and also for dial up users. I've checked the code, (which is quite simple routine actually) and I can't see why it acts up, similar to how TomR reported a couple of months back.

For a future build I will make 0 ms the default (which actually disables the checks altogether). But I don't believe this is significant enough to release a new build now...
