You should post this in th Poker Tracker Forum and let Pat have a look.

Did hard line breaks get inserted after the date and hyphen, before the time of day? An intact Stars history has the time of day on the same line as the date. PT's scanner is line-oriented (it expects lines to be intact).

In your forum posting, at least, the time appears on the next line from the date. I can't diagnose this for sure because it's possible the line breaks in the forum posting are an artifact of the forum software. But the error message suggests it saw the date, but not the time. This supports the theory that you fed PT a file with extra line breaks inserted.

This should be in the FAQ, it came up just a couple of days ago.
