ProScan: Official Software Thread
Okay, That will do it. That's the "Show Mute Icon, Frequency, Tune, Jump, & Resume Scan/Search Controls" option.
I'm having a little issue that I cannot resolve. I did some updates to my program today by moving around systems, adjusting system and group quick keys. Now I do not see all my systems/sites in the group quick key status section.
I have uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled and even created a blank database file, added systems, groups, and channels and they still won't show up in the drop down. Running Windows 10 Pro. Happy almost new year!

I would check the system groups and verify the GQK's are set the way you want them. Next, upload the systems to the scanner and then download the systems and config to ProScan so everything is in sync.
Happy New Years
What would cause Proscan to not record a P25 system? It records normally on analog systems but when I'm on a P25 site I see the level meter bouncing up and down and see a normal display with the system, site, frequency and duration but when I try and play it back, nothing. The green playing slider doesn't move either.
Do you have the scanner set up to record all? What type scanner are you using? What system are you trying to record?
I have a BCD536HP. I'm monitoring the NJICS in New Jersey. P25 Phase 2. I don't see where I have to change anything to record or not record. As I stated before, Proscan records an analog signal just fine. When I switch to monitoring the P25 system, I see the input level meter working and each transmission shows up on the list of recordings indicating the system and even shows a record duration. But when I go to play it back, nothing.
Thanks ProScan, that upload/read to a new file did the trick.
Regarding the programming. Programming for a P25 system is set in a couple different places. The first at the System level and has options for All Channels, Marked Channels, and Off. Then at the Talk Group level which is just a check box. I'd advise to check our the record setting at the system level.
But it sounds like it is recording something...but I know when I first got my 996P2 recording this setting got me but I can't remember if it did something similar to what you describe.

The x36 scanners do not support recording only selected systems or channels. You can either record all traffic or nothing, but not some systems and not others.
So I take it the files are created just no audio. Correct? ProScan audio model doesn't know the difference between P25 or analog so you should get audio played back regardless of the modulation. Are they 0 bytes files or various time lengths?
Are you using Wi-Fi audio or the sound card input method. I would check the Audio Control Recorder tab Input Sound Device to make sure you have the correct input selected.
Are you using the Activity or VOX method?

Analog already is interoperable.
Here's a question for the group about programming conventional DMR into a BCD996P2 (Uniden actually considers this to be trunking). If you program it as a "DMR One-Freq Trunk" System Type, it evidently allows you to actually enter more than just 1 frequency. So if you enter multiple frequencies, how do you tell it which talk groups go with what frequency? The way the + / - expand buttons are arranged doesn't seem to let you specify. Here's an example with Southwest Airlines (at the bottom):
The first 2 channels are supposed to go with the first frequency 461.4875, and channels 3-4 go with the second frequency 461.7375. So, how do I associate the 4 talk groups with the frequency that I want?

You don't need to. Just list all the system talkgroups in Department(s), and all of the frequencies in Site(s). The scanner will display talkgroup info regardless of which frequency broadcasts the talkgroup. If talkgroup IDs are duplicated across frequencies, but are used for different purposes, then the frequencies should be put in separate Systems so each System has its own definition of the talkgroup ID.

I don't see anything called a Department.
But, does this basically mean the scanner will scan each RF frequency in the Site and check to see if ANY of the talk groups are active on each frequency? Even though only certain talk group IDs are used on certain frequencies?

The Department is the container for talkgroups in a trunked system.
Talkgroups are NOT scanned, only frequencies in a Site. The programmed talkgroup data is only referenced when the scanner detects a talkgroup ID being broadcast, and is used to identify the talkgroup and label it on the scanner display. The scanner doesn't care what frequency broadcasts the talkgroup ID, all it does is looks up the talkgroup ID when it is received, and if it finds a programmed match, then it displays the matching data.

I opened up the folder where the recordings are stored. The recordings are stored in date order and when a particular day is opened I can see the analog and the P25 named folders. The analog favorites have recorded data of various lengths that are playable. The folder for the NJICS system was created but it is empty, no files at all. I'm using Wi-Fi audio. I've always used activity. so I just now switched over to VOX. It now records but if I don't have "each trans new row" checked it just creates one big file. If I check it then I get multiple lines of recording for one conversation, especially if the talker releases his microphone often. The input is set with the Wi-Fi url.
The "Department" type of groups applies to the BCDx36HP types. It's the same as the TGID Groups.
Okay so no files. Go back to Activity mode, do you see the Recording files in the grid? Are they grayed out indicating files missing?
Do you have the Activity indicator around the display illuminate when Activity?
Are you using the latest firmware 1.11.31?

Any chance that ProScan may support the "x-forwarded-for" HTTP header?
Right now, am in the process of consolidating all of my open/forwarded ports (about 15!) on my network to a single port, port 80 behind HAProxy on my network. Would like to close off all the excess ports and funnel it through the HAProxy at this point.
My proscan web server port is set to 9090 currently. Sort of forced to put ProScan to port 80 on the web server tab to make such a feat possible. Which is less than ideal for the machine I have ProScan on currently.
edit: Essentially whats going on is that while i have HAProxy setup on port 80 from the web... I can get ProScan to load in the static page content, but all URL's and the scanner GUI on the site are being affixed with the server port specified in the ProScan application. However, all URL's are being properly set to the given domain name or IP accessed by.

Understood, thanks. So it sounds like I can get away with going ahead and putting multiple frequencies in the same system as long as there aren't any talk group IDs that are duplicates. This will save from having to create one whole system for each and every frequency (which would be a mess). For duplicated talk group IDs, I'd have to put the frequencies in different systems, so would need to create a few systems.
