Hi,
eBay changed the encoding of ebay.com (the page where JBidWatcher gets all his data) to UTF-8, therefore the title and location of German auctions with German umlauts are displayed with the wrong encoding. An example for both issues (title and location) is auction 300208951982.
The issues happens on Linux and Windows, I don't know if Mac is also affected but I assume that the issues...

Hi Rick,
to get rid of that I use the eBay search options "items within ... miles of ..." and "Listings Ending within ...".
Regards,
Andreas.

Hi Oleg,
what I was trying to say is that the reason was not the time offset since the offset is working for you and not against you.
However, what I am missing in your log is the "Firing actual snipe" message which should happen exactly 2 minutes after the "Preparing snipe" message. For any reason JBidWatcher never tried to snipe on this two auctions.

Hi,
JBidWatcher does not synchronize your system clock. JBidWatcher is keeping his own clock and this one is synchronized. That's the one that is displayed on the top-right corner. If the time was 17 seconds ahead then that means that the last synchronisation request was 17 seconds delayed by your internet connection. But it means also that the snipe was fired 17 seconds *earlier* as usual.

As an workaround you can disable time synchronisation in the configuration, general tab and synchronize the clock of your PC using NTP.

Hi Morgan,
the 1.0 release is working very well since one month, very
good work, many thanks!!
I think my patch for 0.9.9 is not necessary anymore and
you can close this report.
Thanks,
Andreas.

Hi,
to get rid of this problem, open the configuration window,
go to the Advanced tab, search for the Configuration Key
"override.ebayServer.shipping" and delete it.
Morgan,
this behavior seems to be a bug, the override setting
overwrites the value forever. override.ebayServer.shipping
was in my case set to...

Hi Morgan,
sorry for my late response, I have unfortunately received
the Sourceforge mail with your comment very late (about
one hour ago). My email provider was offline on the
weekend for some hours and the outage has delayed (or is
still delaying) some emails.
I have downloaded the latest CVS version and also the 1.0
release on the...
