Hi Ken,
I don't have an answer, but I felt you might want to know that Dashboard will run for weeks with no issues, or at least it has on my system. I've seen the failed decode increment over 100,000, without issue.
I guess what I'm saying is I just let it run 24/7.

Is there anyway to auto-start the data capture? I'm trying to fully automate the telemetry capture and can start the dashboard when the satellite rises and kill the process when it sets, but can't auto start "Capture from FUNcube Dongle". Could this be added to a future release?
Tnx, Ken, W7KKE

Thanks Drew, I'm collecting telemetry from several satellites and using the FunCube+ dongle for other tasks, so felt I should start and stop the dashboard to free up the dongle.

You could use a macro recorder to record and automatically set the mouse movements and clicks necessary to start the capture. Windows back in the days of 3.1 use to include one that was really cool, but it doesn't anymore.
The best one I know if is Automator for Windows, but it's not free.

Hopefully a future release of the Dashboard might be able to include command line options to autostart capturing.
