@npub1anf…2trg Yes it does, but many things can get in the way: bad network connectivity, cache configuration on the server, caching mechanics of iOS networking….

@npub1ln5…xyw6 Yes, I think that memory starving happens when updating rss feeds during playback: it gets worse when there are a lot of subscribed podcasts and when some podcast has very large rss feeds. These are very difficult bugs to reproduce and catch, but the new version should mitigate the issue cancelling current RSS updates when the system sends a memory warning to the app.

The more I refine code and fix bugs for calculating splits, the more the thing gets complicated.
With value time split many splits can result in less than 1 sat payments.
Should we discard them?
Should we round them to 1 sat and send a total amount greater than the one the user selected?
Should we delay and aggregate them?
The first and last options would completely screw the splits used to do stats.

@npub1ln5…xyw6 @npub1vpk…092y I think it's exactly what I need. I'll implement it very soon. Thank you Dave.

@npub1ln5…xyw6 That would be a nice addition to the specs too when instead of a remoteItem ValueTimeSplit specifies the recipients locally.

@npub1dft…ta3d are you on the beta or the store version?

@npub1df6…ns3a There's a little error in the chapters.json file for Boostagram Ball 2 that prevents parsing from some libraries. Version field should be a string by the spec and is a number in the file (1.2 instead of “1.2”).

New beta available.
Castamatic is transitioning to Alby for all its V4V functionality.
This version has the full implementation and lets you migrate your sats from your legacy wallet to you own account on Alby.
If you're not on the TestFlight beta, you can access it here:
