OSCAR old version
#1
OSCAR old version
Updated to OSCAR 1.1.0. And now my (pressure and total time in apnea) in the overview section are not displayed as the older version of OSCAR. The Pressure display in the older version showed "Min pres", "90% pres", and "max pres", all color coded. New OSCAR just shows "min pres", and "max pres" with no color coding no "90% pressure". The "total time in apnea" is devoid of data, there was color coded data in older version. I would like to go back to a older version of OSCAR but cannot fine a older version to download. Sleepyhead works good but, I just liked the graphics better in the older Version of OSCAR. Iv'e tried uninstall, reinstalled, not import sleepyhead data, import sleepyhead data, fresh profile, and made sure all user settings were good. If I cannot find a older version of OSCAR I will just use sleepyhead until full data is available for me in the overview. I'm using Philips Respironics system one auto 60 series. Any help finding the older version would be appreciated. Thanks (I'll attach a screenshot of OSCAR vs sleepyhead to show the diff)

RE: OSCAR old version
This will be fixed in 1.1.1.

This was an unintentional side effect of improvements to the PRS1 importer, which now correctly distinguishes between observed average pressures and pressure settings/adjustments. Unfortunately, we didn't catch all the places that OSCAR assumed there was only one kind of pressure.

RE: OSCAR old version
Is this 1.1.1 version going to correct the "total time in apnea" section of the overview graph also? 
Right now I am getting no data in that section. 
I did find the bar graph in the "total time in apnea" section informative to me.

TTIA won't be there for PRS1 because it was totally fictitious. PRS1 doesn't report the duration of apnea/etc. events, but the old code thought it did.

RE: OSCAR old version
What else does OSCAR think is relevant for the pr system one that is actually ficticious???? I want to know that what I'm looking at is actual data that helps me with my therapy and is not bogus info! I don't mean to sound unappreciative, but I'm now missing data with a program update, and told of other data being irrelevant.
Just wondering

RE: OSCAR old version
Go through the release notes, they are fairly complete.    Originally OSCAR was calculating compliance wrong.  Actually it was calculated differently in different places.  That was fixed.  

As we find something that is confusing or just plain wrong, we fix it.  
Numbers were assigned for the duration of events (apnea) that were simply put there because other systems put something there, but we don't have something, so let's put some arbitrary value in there so we can count it.  There is no way that we, OSCAR, are going to provide data that is suspect or just plain incorrect.  All of these cases that we have found were inherited from SleepyHead.  Like many others we believed that ALL the data from SleepyHead was valid, we were wrong, sorry.  This is why many sections of the original code have been rewritten, and we have plans to do much more including reworking OSCAR's database and OSCAR's UI.  
OSCAR used to call things "Max" but instead put in a "95%" value, still calling it Max because why would you even want to look at those outliers.  Now if OSCAR says "Max" it Means "Max", 95% means 95% etc.  Why? simply because it is more accurate.

Will we find more,  I'm sure we will.  We will fix those too.

Eventually we may restore TTIA but that will be after we figure how to do it accurately.

RE: OSCAR old version
You don't say what computer you are using, or which version - if it is any use, I have a copy of oscar_1.0.1-r1_Debian9_amd64.deb, the version for Debian Linux still sitting on my hard drive (I want to go to 1.10 as I have less than ideal results from 1.0.1 but am having problems as described in a different thread)

If you want it, send me a PM w/ your email so I can send it to you...

RE: OSCAR old version
Thanks Gooserider. I'm using windows 10 for OSCAR. I have a netbook is running linux mint but I have issues with installing OSCAR on it. It breaks linux mints updater when I try to install it. I did have OSCAR working on a zorin linux OS. though.
