If the desktop app isn't going to be updated/patched to address this issue, then this topic should probably be pinned.  Or start a new topic that has the work-around as the first post and pin that topic.


The app does not need to be patched at all, it's the server which needs a change.

I agree principally Gunnar, but with this issue things are somewhat different. After all, this is 100% a server API issue. A you say, someone IS keeping the server alive. If only they were aware of this issue, I'm sure they could fix it easily. I haven't reverse engineered the calls, but my suspicion is that while the latest DB files are still copied to the necessary server location, the DB diff files are not. Could be as simple as a missing cron job after a server move.


I was thinking the same. Ken periodically comes around, but the silence is deafening. When the server went down they made it a priority to post and to rebuilt the server, not to mention a statement that the Android app would come back to the Google Play store. But with no signs of life since then somehow that now seems like another empty promise. So it begs the question, why say it to begin with?

Well, someone is logging in with Ken's account, but is it actually Ken? I wonder.

Actually, what was said was that they would be "working to resolve soon". They didn't promise that they would be successful.
But yeah, a follow up statement would have been nice.

And that statement was 9 months ago. Though it's likely a more complicated issue since development of the app likely stopped back in 2017 so it's not as easy as resubmitting it to the Google Play store for approval. But the fact that development all together seemed to stop in 2017 for some reason is really concerning and it's unfortunate there hasn't been more transparency as to the future of DVDProfiler.

The way that February post was written, I'm convinced it was Ken, however I'm at a loss to explain why what seem like easy fixes aren't being taken care of.
