What's recording next for System Tray Icon

[5%NationofCasiotone]

Know how if you are recording, and you click on the System Tray Icon in tells you what you are recording and if not, it says Sleeping. Instead of "Sleeping" I'd like if it could tell you what is scheduled to record next and when.

I'll second that (as long as it displays the date and time of the scheduled recording)

Hey, that IS a pretty good idea actually. I 3rd that if possible.

Have you seen SlimmGBPVR?

I did try it and liked it but IIRC it used something like 30MB of RAM which is too much on my system that only has 512.

The Mem Usage statistic in Task Manager refers to the amount of physical and virtual memory a process is taking. You need to show the VM Size and Mem Usage columns (View menu->Select columns). If Mem Usage is larger than VM Size, the difference between them is a better guide to the amount of physical memory the process is taking.

Another guide is the Page Faults column. If this value is large (running into hundreds of thousands after a few hours) it means that that process is heavily using virtual memory as opposed to physical memory.

Slimm GBPVR should only take 2 or 3 meg maximum leaving you with about 510Mb of physical memory to play with.

oh ok, thanks for replying to this and sorry if my post misrepresented the performance of your plugin. I guess slimm gbpvr is being frequently swapped out then?

I'll have another go with it soon as I enjoyed it's funtionality.
