I like my video input at 640x480 and my output also at 640x480.
My camera has not been listed on the logisphere server for weeks
because I get the following "OK" msgbox when enabling the Listed option.

LogiSphere Server Message
Your picture is 72 kb.
Size < 20kb is much better for streaming...
Lower Picture Quality and/or Colour depth Perferred image size is 320x240

When I click "OK" the software automaticaly turns off my web server and disables my camera.
I do not belive this is the proper way for the software to act. If the server does not like
the image I am providing on my personal server it should not disable my server but instead it
should disable the "Listed" option (the ability to send to the server).

I do not care to run my resoloution at 320x240 when 640x480 works perfectly for me.
That was one issue...
Issue two is..
At times I do set my resoloution at 320 just so I can get my page listed.
Anyhow today when I enabled Listed after upgrading to 1.5 I was not able to get 320x240 to save as an output setting. I tried by changing the output to 320x240, then click save and exit then restart program several times.
When the program starts up again the output comes back at 640x480
and the LogiSphere Server Message msgbox comes up closes my server down and shuts off my camera.

I have an ATI wonder TV card. I use it as a video capture card for a hard wired camera in the composit video input not for TV. None of the available driver options {Source} or {format} allow me to select the alternate video source from my card. In fact they default to the TV tuner even when other programs are selected to the composit video input.

Hello Dennis
It should not disable my server but instead it
should disable the "Listed" option (the ability to send to the server).
You're right.
This is a very old limitation - when there were only one or two cams listed, I wanted them to look crisp with a good frame rate.
I changed the server response as you suggested. Now if your picture is > 50kb, you will get a notification in a browser window, and your camera wont be listed but continues running.

I tried by changing the output to 320x240, then click save and exit then restart program several times.
When the program starts up again the output comes back at 640x480
Looks like you found a bug. The output resolution is not stored in config.txt. You have to change the output resolution in config.txt in the LogiSphere program folder. I will fix that for the next release.

I have an ATI wonder TV card.
I think somewhere I have just the same card. I'll try to dig it out and set up a system with it so I can see if I can do anything about that.

Thank you for reporting these problems.
