background-agents

In my Lotus Notes workflow application, I have a scheduled server agent (every five minutes). When user's act on a document, a server-side agent is also triggered (this agent modifies the said document, server-side). In the production, we are receiving many complaints that the processing are incomplete or sometimes not being processed at all. I checked the server configuration and found out that only 4 agents can run concurrently. Being a global application with over 50,000 users, the only thing that I can blame with these issues are the volume of agent run, but I'm not sure if I'm correct (I

I have been trying to get a Resource-Intensive Task background agent to run in release mode after deploying to the phone for several days and have never seen it run. Has anyone got this to work outside of the debugger? How long did you have to wait before it ran? I am able to launch and successfully run the Resource-Intensive Task using the LaunchForTest but have never gotten it to run as it should in release mode even though the task shows that it is scheduled. I have followed the samples and the phone should have met the requirements for launch. I have set the manifest up for auto-upload as

I have an application, targeting mango devices, which plays music via a BackgroundAudioAgent. As such it integrates with the universal volume control (UVC). Is there a way to detect when the application is launched by tapping the artists details in the UVC? Alternatively, is there a way to set a deep link for the UVC to use? I want this so that I can take the user to the "Now playing" page, rather than the main page, when the app is launched via the UVC. Update This also affects launching the app from the now playing tile in the Music & Video hub as the BackgroundAudioPlayer automatically

The app was quite good (as I used the Emulator to test it, it was good on all the possible sectors) but when I submitted it for certification, it failed. According the the error log, if someone is already playing a Music from Music + Video hub and then tries to open this app, both of the apps Crash and stop unexpectedly. So far I understood, it is because the Music of Music + Video hub is also Background Music and for playing 2 Background Musics at the same time, the apps are Crashing. It can

** Found the solution Because of the fact this is a tile, the image will always be strechted to 173 by 173! To avoid this first create a dummy 173 by 173 and merge this with the resized one! Rect rect = new Rect(0.0, 0.0, width, height); WriteableBitmap bitmapDummy = new WriteableBitmap(173, 173); bitmapDummy.Blit(rect, resized, rect, WriteableBitmapExtensions.BlendMode.None); ** Well I have created a Background agent to update the live tile of my WP7 app. But no matter what I try to resize it, I'm not getting a good result! Any tips? Currently I have following code, but I also tried 135 by
