The problem is that while watching a video, there is no input from the user so ManicTime tracks that time as Away. When checked, Away time will only be triggered when there is no sound. Treat sound as active - Away time tracking can be problematic for users who watch a lot of video. We recommend you use the first option since "screen saver" method can be unreliable.

Use decimal hour format for day summary and Use decimal hour format for statistics - decimal hour format is displayed as 5,5h while normal hour format would be 5:30.

Stop stopwatch when application exits - stopwatch can continue running even after you stop ManicTime.įirst day of week - select with which day the week starts Shift day start by (hours)ĭay start shift feature is most useful for those who work through midnight. ManicTimeProcessMonitor.exe will monitor ManicTime and if it crashes, it will automatically start it again. If you enable this setting, a new process(ManicTimeProcessMonitor.exe) will be started when ManicTime starts. But since it is used on a lot of machines, with different hardware and software, it does crash from time to time. To disable this behavior uncheck this option.Įnable ManicTime process monitor - We try to do everything we can to keep ManicTime from crashing.
