Is there any plan to improve this...&nbsp;

Seems my solution for the memory leak only works in debug. Back to the drawing board.

Just FYI my CPU has been pegged at 50% all day today whilst Plex Notify is running. Started with the update (I got a notification and I noticed the CPU fans seemed a little loud, thought it was transcoding something for a user, but it was still like that when I got back to the house a few hours later). Plex Notify seems to be working but I can't figure out why the 50% CPU usage. Reboot etc doesn't seem to fix it.

EDIT: should add, running Windows 7 32 bit, all previous versions of PN were fine. Latest Plexpass PMS. I found a log file but it seems only to have data a week old in it; if you want it please let me know how to get you a useful logfile.

Thanks for the ninja response!

I really like Plex Notify, it's one of those utilities that runs quietly in the background letting me know when other users are playing stuff in my library. I use the Pushalot integration with my Windows Phone by the way and it works really well. Thanks again.

Any chance I can see when a user is browsing my server for Movies or Television. I would like to be notified if I have any active connections. Thanks.

Hi, I really love this app!

Would it be possible to sort the TV-Shows/Movies in the statistics tab so that the shows/movies with most views is at the top?

Hi James, I am running your Alpha v0.0.0.67 in Windows 8.1, but I have a crash error from your application when I click in statistics Movies windows. You can see here:

[http://prntscr.com/3hz5vk](http://prntscr.com/3hz5vk)

Your .log file does not tell me nothing:

&nbsp; &nbsp; 0.0.0.67

&nbsp; &nbsp; Application started.

&nbsp;

Any suggerences?

&nbsp;

Regards

Paco

Hi everyone I apologize for the crashes. I am working to resolve them now. Its associated with the speeding up of loading the video data in the statistics screen. I will have this fixed asap.

No need to apologise, it's an alpha, people should expect a few bugs here and there.

Keep up the great work.&nbsp;

where's the "speeding up"? I really don't see any improvement when opening statistics (getting data...)
