During the past month or so, I've been keeping tabs on your
Bink's Hydra performance.  Definitely "iffy" at times - but it's
not a consistant "iffyness".

Best way to sorta describe it, is probably in terms that Martin
would understand.  By that I mean, it's closely similar to the
way T-Mail used to perform until we got the message across to
Andy Elkins and he fixed it.
T-Mail, somewhat similar to Bink's implementation, also had the
Janus core being accessed - and I've a feeling it's something to
do with that.

For those who're interested in the spasmodic "basic fault" -
Hydra timeouts occur at the session end, which causes an error
state and a re-dial action subsequently takes place.

Is there any means whereby you can totally disable Janus with
your BinkXE ??  If so - would you be willing to do so for maybe a
week or so ?
I'll then go back to bashing with Arjen's "standard" (currently
I've disabled that and am using ZedZap, as you *might* have
noticed).

TTFN,

Archie
