Poca-WHS 

This new version of Poca is a pod catcher designed to run on Windows Home Server Add-in. 

I wanted a pod catcher program that I could run on my Windows Home Server without needing a user to be logged in to the server all the time. So I created this application.

Usage:

Poca is installed as any other Home Server add-in. Once installed go to the settings screen and configure one or more folders that the downloaded pod casts will be saved in. Once the folders are configured go to the main screens and setup the RSS Feeds. The Feeds are setup using a internet address, look for the RSS logo and use the address supplied by the pod caster.

This update fixes a few bugs and adds some requested enhancements. 


- Prevent the sleep time from being set to a value less than 5.
- Added the feature to console UI to refresh the service's status. The status bar now lists the name of any feed that is being checked or downloaded.
- Added a "Download Feed Now" button to the UI. It forces the service download the currently highlighted feed immediately.
- Added to the service a check on the output file name to remove any characters that are invalid in the Windows file system.
- Removed from logging the creation of the individual serious error files. The contents are still written to the standard log files.
- Added to the logs the output of thread ids to each log messages.
- Added checks to help make the writing of the configuration XML files thread safe.
- Moved the configuration setting files and logs from the "Public" share to a folder on C drive (C:\Program Files\IrSoftware\Poca). This should solve the problem with German language version of Windows Home Server. This version of Service will automatically copy the configuration files from the old location to the new.

The add-in is now in an open beta. This version has been tested by a dozen users and is functional and stable. But there are a number of additional features that are planed. 


The previous java based non-add-in version is still available here, but there is not any planned future upgrades.
