Thanks for the additional information. I have done some further investigations here, and so far I am seeing continuous problems with my connections to the FCS004 reflector rooms, and no problems with other connections, both C4FM and DMR. Because of that, I suspect there might be something going on with that reflector, and I see it on multiple rooms, and on all stations. That means that ALL entries except my own are marked TOut, leaving me missing the actual duration numbers.
I am wondering if a slight modification of the method to indicate an error might be possible? Rather than obliterate the sometimes useful duration data with TOut, could we just change the background color for that report, much like happens when the BER rate if out of line? By implementing it that way we keep the actual data, but still are getting an indication of an error, which I think was the original intent of the change. Another option might be to allow the user to somehow decide if they want the check done or not. I suspect that adding another parameter to the config data is a major issue, but maybe something simpler like testing for the presence of a file to disable it (/etc/no_timeout_checks is present) might also be an option. Because in my case (and others I have checked with as well) EVERY report is showing an error, and it is probably beyond my control to fix it, I find the loss of that data to be a minor problem, and would personally choose to not do that check.
TOut - what that means?

Re: TOut - what that means?
Hi all,
many thanks, Anton! This confirms that my patch is working for D-STAR, DMR and YSF modes. I was only able to confirm this for YSF and DMR here.
As we can see, anytime when "TOut" is displayed, there is a reason for this: MMDVMHOST has logged these timeouts.
I've already tested another code to get back to displaying the time and add an "(TOut)" to it (hoping this is what KD2PNR likes to see). But I'm not sure to publish it, because there are no other complaints about it. I don't like to implement a patch for 2 or 3 users while the rest of the users are fine with it.
Maybe I will dicuss this with Andy. He should decide, whats in his software.

I am not complaining about the theme I raised. Just I'd like to ask to understand what happened wrong on my Pi-Star hotspot.
If it's OK as you told, so I am thinking we can close the topic.

Re: TOut - what that means?
I have no issue with reporting errors, but when it happens on EVERY transmission, and I have no way that I know of to fix it, then I would prefer to have the durations not completely lost. I am only seeing this constantly when connected to a FCS004 based room, other sources will report problems occasionally, but not every time. Here is what I am seeing in my logs:

As I said before, I get this on other spots and other rooms, as long as it is FCS004 provided. Because it is limited to just this reflector I think it likely they are doing (or not doing) something to cause this. If there is something I can do here to get more data I would be happy to do so. In any event, thanks for the consideration.

Re: TOut - what that means?
Andy has committed a fix for this today, so your Pi-Stars should pick it up overnight or you can do an update manually.

Re: TOut - what that means?
Thanks so much for the update. I manually updated everything this morning, and indeed, the durations are back again.
Just one other comment - I checked my logs for messages when using the FCS reflector, and they still indicate constant network watchdog errors, however I only see the duration on the dashboard. I only question this as I looked at the new code Andy provided, and if I am reading it correctly it will simply place the duration in the proper place instead of TOut if the string contains the "seconds" string (i.e. data). This seems to me to be in conflict with the comment he provided indicating that perhaps I should be seeing something else (both perhaps) that will not only give me the actual duration, but also some form of error indicator. I am wondering if the intention was to append the duration time after the "TOut" text, rather than completely replace it?? In my case this would result in a very cluttered display for that column, but as a former programmer I can see the possible original intention.
I am happy with the way it is now, but just wanted to comment in case it is not the way Andy intended. Also I took a quick look at setting the background to red when an error is detected but php is new to me, so it is not obvious and I wanted to get this comment submitted.
Thanks again folks.

Re: TOut - what that means?
I think the intention is that the dashboard shows the duration correctly but that any watchdog timer errors appear in the log. That means that debug information is there but you have to dig a little to get it.
