the length between sessions

[Ester]

I'd really like to be able to adjust the length of the break between sessions in PT4, as implemented in the Holdem Manager. For example, if after 5 minutes was not import any hands, the session ends, and when after 10 minutes I'll start to play again and import of hands will resume, will begin a new session.
It seems to me that the break was less in PT3, but now in PT4 it is 30 minutes. It's too long. If I go for dinner etc. on 15 minutes, all the hands imports as one long session. As a result, for example, hands/hour index shows the full nonsense.
Many users would like to be able to set this time on any number of minutes, from 1 to 9999, like in Holdem Manager. Or at least be able to choose between 1/2/5/10/15/20/30/60 minutes. If you find it useful, I have noticed this problem when playing FastPoker tables (Rush/Zoom etc.) into Poker Stars, Full Tilt and Ipoker. I havent played regular tables for a long time, but there most likely the same thing when sitting out.

The length was the same in PT3 as it is in PT4. I will reiterate this request to the developers but I do not foresee this changing in the near term future.

Thanks, it's OK. This is not critical, but I would be very happy, if it will be realised even by the end of the year :roll:

Is something like this (a session length setting) under consideration?
I think Ester is right in that there are many players wanting this?

It seems easy enough to implement, is there perhaps a reason why this can't or won't be implemented?

Adding a setting for this value is a lot more complicated than it appears. I don't know of plans to add a configurable setting for this value at this time.

I agree, as do the majority of users no doubt. This option "shouldn't" be that difficult to implement, and should have been planned for initially.

Especially with the popularity of Zoom, the makeup of many players' session lengths has changed dramatically in recent times. Whereas it was previously common for grinders to put in 2-3 hour shifts with 30+ minute breaks, nowadays it is equally likely that players may grind, say, 6-8 tables of Zoom for an hour, break for 10 minutes, and repeat.

The current PT settings make detailed observations of, and comparisons between, sessions impossible. This change should be made a priority.

Has this feature been implemented by now?

[kraada]

Session length is not configurable at this time.
