Time logged although computer was in standby
Today I had a strange problem with time being logged while my laptop was in standby mode.
I am so sure that my laptop was in standby mode, because it was in my backpack while commuting to work.
When looking into the yml-file that has been sent there is an URL logged with start and end like this:
start_time: 2008-03-18 06:15:40
end_time: 2008-03-18 08:31:45
06:15 is exactly the time I sent my laptop to standby when leaving home. I am sure it actually reached standby, as I always check this.
08:31 is about the time I started working. So this could be the time I fired up my computer when in the office.
It is not a big problem for me and I have seen this happening today for the first time, but it ruins my statistic. Its probably good as now i already used up my 'gaming' time for today, so i have to be productive for the rest of the day ;-)

Inappropriate?I'm assuming you have a Mac (yes?) - we've seen some reports of sleep issues like this with Mac laptops... Essentially what's happening is that the sleep action is happening before RescueTime can close the record.
One thing that usually helps is reducing the scan interval (on the Mac Data Collector)-- it's on the "Advanced" tab.
We are working hard on this issue-- two of our 3 founders are Mac laptop users. :-)
I’m confident

Inappropriate?No - it's no Mac, sorry. It's a ThinkPad running WinXP (SP2).
I'm running RescueTime 1.0.1.01
Perhaps the same thing you described can happen for Windows too when going to standby. I don't think this happened before for me, although I'm using standby all the time and only seldomly reboot my machine.
At least I never noticed it happening before. -
Inappropriate?I have a similar problem, but in my case it happens when the computer goes into hibernation (turns off, saves ram to HD). Has happened with internet explorer - where RescueTime reported that I used the application for a length of time corresponding to when it was turned off (in hibernation)
