Ingest window not automatically appearing in 4.6.7
« on: June 02, 2011, 07:40:14 AM »
It worked fine in 4.6.6. I’d put a card in the slot on my PC, PM would open up and there would be the ingest window with the card directory highlit. I just needed to press Enter to set things in motion.

Now I just see main PM window and have to go Ctrl-g and scroll down to the relevant directory.

Do I need to change a setting somewhere or is this an undocumented feature?

Thanks,

Roger

What do your General Preferences look like in PM's Preferences dialog?  Use the 'Additional Options...' link when you're composing your reply to this message and there you'll be able to upload your JPEG format screenshot.

Thanks,

Roger,

OK, looks good.

Is the AutoPlay handler appearing when you insert your card into your card reader?

I have the exact same issue.  It worked fine in 4.6.6.  Windows XP machine.

Neither the ingest nor the 'open as contact sheet' settings work when windows automatically opens PM.  However, they do work when PM is already open and THEN the card is inserted into the card reader.

Windows works as it always did -- insert the card and it opens PM automatically.  But PM no longer behaves the way it used to.

When I did an successful ingest while PM was opened, a .pmingest.dat file was created.  I then removed the card, closed PM, and reinserted the card.  Still no joy.

Regards,
Frank

Nope. It used to, as I recall.

I've just tried PM with a loaded external card reader and get the same result - no ingest window and no autorun. I get autorun with other peripherals.

Sorry. I missed that or I'd have posted there.

I've reverted to 4.6.6 until this is fixed.
