Greg,

I have installed the patched f/w today and I have found, that:

i) there is quite visible improvement in quality on both video and VGA/DVI 
channels, which is a nice surprise!
ii) it is a slight shift to the right on both channels, which frame grabber 
settings can't eliminate, bit I can live with it.

But the problem is that, I can't start the capture agent though it is 
registered on the core. It stays idle all the time, and at the capture start 
time I am getting the message:

""WARNING : Recording may have failed to start or ingest!
   It seems the core system did not receive proper status updates from the 
Capture Agent that should have conducted this recording""

I did try to start recording many times with different setup on the agent, 
changing the pooling interval, ingest interval and also stream setups, without 
any success.
At the same time I am testing NCast agent which is working fine with the same 
server (I am still on rel. 1.2).

Is it anything else I can try?

Thanks,

Leslaw
