Hi Kim,

An alternative way to fix it would be to declare the loop variable itself as 
unsigned, since the channels can never be negative, but that would require you 
to cast to int in two places.
Also, when casting, it is better to use static_cast<unsigned>, rather than C 
style casting.

Thanks,
Krishna
