RCF v2.1.104 (Win32)

[kg6ypi]

Before upgrading to RCF v2.1.97 from v2.1.xx, either completely uninstall RCF v2.1 or install RCF v2.1 into a new folder. If you use your current database, all the tables will be dropped except the memories table to be upgraded. The built in HTTP server has been removed and is now called RCFhttp, specifically for SSTV purpose only. You no longer need your templates, but you may want to keep them handy in the near future for customizing your new ORB page.

If you were using RCFserver to host MMSSTV history folder, you must run RCFhttp now along with RCFserver. You also must point your MMSSTV history folder to "RCF/data/html/sstv/".  RCFhttp generates an XML file listing your SSTV images in order of latest received. This XML file is loaded by the FlashSSTV control on the ORB page of your radio to display your latest SSTV history.

Please upgrade to Unreal Media Server 7 to utilize the latest Flash has to offer. Make sure you select "Unreal Media Server v7" in RCFwizard under the Audio tab.

RCF v2.1.98 contains fixes to RCFhttp only. Its now generating a "data/sstv/live.jpg' image which is always the latest SSTV image.
You will no longer get the 403 Forbidden message for directories, they will be listed. This release contains requests from mainly WA6LIE.
Its not really needed to update unless you want to.

Contains one small fix to the TX TOT (Time-out-timer).  If there are no users connected that have TX permissions, then the TX is disabled. This solves the problem if a TX users connects and disconnects leaving the radio transmitting.  In prior versions, RCFserver waits 3 minutes for the TOT to expire before turning the TX off. This is just a minor improvement but I feel its important for ORB's that have TX features.

Another minor update to the new TX TOT updates, you can now adjust two new settings that control the new TX TOT security features. You can change the TX TOT delay from 60 - 300 seconds (default 90),  and enable or disable a feature that turns off the TX if no TX privileged users are connected and the TX is left on for some reason.
