Definitely not fixed for me.
Had a very nasty case of it on Saturday afternoon.
Bizarrely even after i did a hard reboot it came back straight away.
I did a Windows "repair" on Geeks Toy (not that...

I've just tried this and as you say the CPU spikes but it does drop down again even after repeated refreshes It doesn't appear to stay high.

Admittedly this test was done in a quiet time of day...

I have the same problem towards the end of each racing day too. Regular as clockwork.
Doesn't happen on shorter sessions.
I have a bookie market and the betfair website open on chrome as well as...

Well done on the 50-1 winning tip - not too many of those around!

Yep 340-360 is my number. I'm in Sydney on old optus cable.

Mainly trading dogs but pretty marginal as to whether it is worth the time invested.


BFair have their own Greyhound model on the Hub but I really haven't looked to see if it is any good.

Interesting concept Temujin.

I have found aussie greyhound markets highly erratic and very difficult to get set for other than very small coin.

If you are going to back or lay every runner...

This is killing me too - using the grid.
Money does not appear in grid when you place wager and everything is lagged or stopped for short periods.
Is this an Aussie API problem?

I have also had problems with this repeatedly as well.

Is this just an Australian thing (me)?

Tried reinstall and fiddling with settings but no improvement.
It is intermittent though which...

Tee Betfair shutdown fixed it. Thank god.

Last 3 or 4 days Geeks Toy has been barely connecting if at all.
Normal website seems OK.
A mate said hi sToy was OK.
Wonder if it something to do with my provider (Optus Cable)?

To be more precise.

Grid.
When I open any market the "stream down" message shows and goes off after 5 seconds or so. If you close the market while this is on then the toy crashes.
If you wait...

When I open software it givers the stream down message.
If I do anything while this is showing the software crashes and closes.

It didn't do this in earlier version.

Betfair Oz have moved their server out of Australia to the main server (UK?) and neutered the Aus wallet.

My green refresh time is now 431 ms when it used to be around 45 ms.
Maybe this will...

I'm getting this one too.
Started last couple of weeks.

Filthy.

Thanks "Other Geek" PM sent.

I found another user with exactly the same problem. He places fewer bets so only a minor annoyance for him.

Is anybody using Windows 10 Grid mode without the place bets window rolling up...

Any thoughts gentlefolk?

I'm still stumped.
Reinstall did nothing.

Filthy.

Hello I just "upgraded" my PC and it came with win10.

After downloading the Toy again I've got a problem.

I am using Grid.

when I place a bet and the "Place Bets" window comes up, about 1 in...

One issue I'm having with 1.3m is a return of difficulties previously experienced with earlier versions of the Toy (pre API changes) which were fixed.

This is that when using Grid mode and a bet...

Australia
Australian English
Australia
nope.

Aussie horse and dogs not working.
Other sports markets appear

Filthy and out of play.

Been bleating about this for years - us second class citizens who use the grid miss this critical function.

Nevertheless I'm 99% happy with the Geek and his work.
100% would be getting creepy.
...

It says in the rules that the reduction factors ar eon the "info page of the Betfair website". Anyone know where this page is ? I can't find it?


Filthy

I wish this would work for Grid users........

Does anybody precisely know when and how Betfair calculate reduction factors?

Not talking about the general info in their rules but the nitty gritty.

I seem to have an unfortunate knack of...
