Vpilot cuts my transmission

Hello dear vatsim folks

 

Recently i have had this very annoying issue with Vpilot, its fairly simple, most of the times when i push down my PTT button Vpilot lets me transmit my message just fine, but then i get alot of times when i push my PTT button and 5 seconds later Vpilot stops the transmission, even when am holding down the PTT button and speaking, i have ran Vpilot as admin, as well as FSX steam, nothing, i have changed the USB port, same thing, i have tried to change my PTT button, no change, am in the proccess of finding out if my Anti virus is fucking with Vpilot, so ill get back you on that.

 

meanwhile here is the log from the debug.

and before you ask, yes i am patched into the right freq, and yes it happens to Vpilot as a whole, like not just at Frankfurt, but it happens at every tower/center/ground am on.

What are you using for a PTT device? Joystick/yoke or keyboard?

Could you please try using a keyboard key, such as the Right CTRL key, as PTT, to see if the problem happens there as well?

forgot to mention in the main post, i have tried using a keyboard button as PTT, keeps happening, right now i dont have the issue on VATSIM (flying from Frankfurt to Manchester), but its just a matter of time before the issue comes back, i dont know if its the PTT button i have that requires me to press it harder, or something causing Vpilot to stop transmitting my voice :/

In the log you pasted above, at what point in time did vPilot stop transmitting?

that is one example of it happening, it kept happening as well on my flight today when i was trying to communicate with Norway control :/

 

i would try and see if it works better at FSinn, but that wont open the damn chat :/

This part:

 

Setting TX for COM1 to False

 

Means you are no longer transmitting on COM1. That means your radio is not set up to transmit. It has nothing to do with PTT.

Yes, but if TX is off, then PTT state is irrelevant. It's analogous to pressing the PTT in a real plane while the COM radio is turned off.

 

We need to find out why your radio is not set for transmit anymore. It could be that the other com radio (COM2) is set to transmit, or your avionics have lost power.

we can roll out power going out, now i do tend to set both the radios in the plane to the same freq... so that might be the issue, ill report back soon, since am about to do a flight and if there is any ATC online on my route, ill try and do some com check with them

I wonder if you are selecting the ATC freq on vPilot but not actually tuning the freq on your radio?

 

I say this because "been there done that".
