    Default encoder fix (I am an idiot)

    my main camming computer died today big cries
    so I swapped to my secondary computer
    tried to use the SM encoder
    the encoder 'worked' but I didn't have the HD sign above my pic and my placement plummetted

    turns out, you should NOT download the latest Adobe encoder, only ever download the 3.1 version
    hope no one else goes through my 3 hours of pain to find this out

    I'm not sure I understand; you're saying don't download what sm tells you to downlaod on their site? I don't have the emblem but my encoder (I thought) was working. I contacted SM and asked them to give me the emblem and they told me they know there's an issue with the emblem and we need to be patient. Meanwhile I'm making crap because of not having it.

    no, do download the one from SM site - it's still the 3.1 version that they link to. But just don't upgrade it. Doesn't solve the known issue with the icon going on and off. It's another problem entirely. I upgraded mine when I swapped computer and it didn't show the icon at all and was altogether being very dodgy. It took me hours to figure out what the difference was

    3.2 was kicking my ass so I changed to 3.1 and had traffic out the ass. 3.2 kept kicking me off the network/ lagging

    Well today I noticed that unless I used the encoder or the old streaming window, my sound would not work in the NEW streaming window. It was really strange. Anyone else have this problem today? Subsequently, I made squat for the 2 hours I was on because I kept trying to figure out what was wrong.

    The 3.2v works fine for me show HD icon and not lag for now.

    Core i3
    2 GB ram
    1 Mb Upload
    Windows 7

    I try the 3.1 and compare both later.

    Thanks
