I've downloaded r250 and will try it. I did make the change for last night's raid to extend the time on the talent checks as you suggested a page or two back and didn't get an error.
Good. That confirms it's something to do with talent re-scanning.
I looked at the error message referenced above, and both that person and I use TipTop. There are several other mods in common, of course, but TipTop also does some talent inspection. Perhaps there is some conflict?
Yes quite possibly. Good spot. There has to be something else to explain it as I never ever get the problem and raid and wipe and change spec and teleport 4 nights a week. Nor does anyone else in the guild. I will grab a copy of that addon. But the latest version should give some more incite to the error.
Well, no errors with r250 last night, but it was only 10 man raiding and I don't think there was any talent switching. My next 25-man isn't until Wed...so I'll let you know more on Thursday. :) Thanks again.

Just to be clear. I don't expect r250 to fix anything. But when it does go wrong it should give more information on the problem. Which you can then report back. Then maybe I can fix it or have more ideas :)
Also be sure to get the latest alpha before the raid in case I have some more ideas before then.
Finally! Yes the problem is the TipTop addon! I can now reproduce the problem. You do not need to keep testing it for me. I will find out what is wrong and let you know when I know it is fixed.
There are a host of other addons that are adding talent inspection, so whatever you find out may apply to more than TipTop. I'll look for a replacement to TipTop in the meantime.
No. Check the talents window that RBS does not think one of the druids is hybrid or feral. For that druid check you can inspect his talent points manually.
I tried the Alpha version r259 now during two raids and it reported every CC break of our Warrior tank as non-tank break. Sadly I have forgotten to check how the Warrior was detected in the Addon, but I'll do this when I see the bug the next time.
And there also seems to be a problem with Fish Feast detection. I recently switched both announce options on, Mage announce works correctly, but none of my Fish Feasts are announced.
I'm using a deDE Client if that matters.

RBS tries to automatically spot who the tanks are. It does this in two steps. First it looks at the tank list. (Every raid uses a tank list right?) It can use many tank list systems in common use including anything compatible with the Blizzard tank list, oRA2, ctra, or xperl. Then it looks at the talents and class of the players on the list to check they could tank. It will ignore players who are not tanks (eg Priests) that are only being used for following DPS or other scenarios.

It is missing deDE translations. Please look at the deDE.lua file and send me a new version with what is missing.

I'm 100% sure that the tank was set in oRA2.

The only entries I see missing there are from the new CC break reporting feature.
How is the Fish Feast detected? By searching for the L["prepares a Fish Feast!"] emote? If yes, maybe this one was localized wrong, I'll check it.
Btw: Using the WowAce localization system is by far easier for translators than messing with the files ;)

Was the tank prot spec? For a warrior to be considered a tank they need to be on the list and prot spec. Please double check what spec RBS says they are. Also enable the RBS tank list button to see who RBS considers to be tank. Let me know what you find. If needed I could add an option to only use the tank list and ignore spec.

Yes, he was in prot spec.
I'll check the next time what RBS shows.
I had not heard of it before. Very cool. Yes I will have a look at how to do it. Thanks.
im not sure wether the whole raid gets the combatlogevent for spell_cast &spell_create, but if they do, you could get rid of the translation and listen to that

If you disable TipTop everything is fine.

Thanks again for your help.
It has it already. Click top right button to open the buffs configuration window.
Oh, shame on me :(

maybe thats why you dont see fish feasts?
Tanks are known according to a few things. See here:

when i translate this myself, this doesnt sound right ;)
From the Transcriptorlog for Koralon:
Yes, he was in prot spec.
I'll check the next time what RBS shows.
:)
Great, thanks! So I don't have to waste a Fish Feast ;)
So the correct localization should be:
L["prepares a Fish Feast!"] = "bereitet ein Fischmahl zu!"
