Bug report - Bluetooth & eboard crash

[Alexander]

Hi

Just reporting a bug that has happened a few times affecting bluetooth/eboard and HIARCS for both Millenium eBoards I have. This is with MacOS 14.0 and also MacOS 13.x (previous version to 14.0. HIARCS CEP 1.2.1 Deep.

Searching for eBoard - Settings-advanced-detect (with Millenium eOne [or another Millenium board I have]) - then HIARCS can occasionally quit/crash instantly when it finds the eBoard. Not every time though so not easy to reproduce every time.

Also has happened when I've been running an engine at the same time and run detect.

Bluetooth stability with both boards has never been a problem with iphone iOS HIARCS.

Searching and trying to connect to eBoard (Millenium eOne) - although has happened with other Millenium board I have before.

Basically - Settings - Advanced - Detect, then when searching for eboard. HIARCS crashes (unexpectantly quits/closes).

MacOS 14.0 Sonoma - although similar happened with previous MacOS version 13.x.


I think I've copied the bug report that HIARCS generates below. Not sure if this helps or not. If I find out further how I can reproduce I will!
