Ah, okay! Thank you for the explanation.

Okay that makes sense, but I'm only trying to send like 0.0005 BTC (plus fee). Is it normal that the change would be that much?

I'm sorry for the dumb question, but I've searched around and didn't quite find the answer. I'm using 0.96.4 RC2 and I've changed everything to P2SH-P2WPKH in the Armory settings, however when I try to send to a SegWit address, it keeps telling me it's going to send an extra 0.01 BTC to some other address. What am I doing wrong?

I'm trying to buy something with bitcoin and the vendor does this through BitPay. According to their site, you need a supported wallet, as simply sending the exact amount of money to the provided address will not be enough. However, BitPay's site is saying that Armory is not supported: https://bitpay.com/docs/wallets

Is this true, and if so, does that mean I'll need to send all my bitcoins to a Bitcoin Core wallet first and pay with that every time?

Disregard this, I figured it out.

I had to allow bitcoin-qt.exe, ArmoryQt.exe, and ArmoryDB.exe to connect automatically in my firewall (Comodo), rather than allowing them manually each time.

I'm on Windows 7, running Bitcoin Core v0.13.2 (64-bit) and Armory 0.95.1

Bitcoin Core is fully synced and running, Armory databases were deleted and rebuilt and seemed to finish without errors. However, it's still stuck on "Preparing Databases" with no progress and the ArmoryDB has stopped on "no history to scan". It repeats this every few minutes. The only error I'm seeing is in the armorycpplog file, but I'm not sure what it means.
