Just a
comment:
Since
every windows program looks in its own installed folder first, for ini and dll
files why in the #$%$ do the app writers continue to stick these support files
in the windows folders? If all app files were in their own home/sub folders you
could re-install the os or any app and never lose anything. You could also
remove any app by just removing the apps folders.

Mornin Chris,
When installing the first thing it does is check for a
smartcam.ini file and uses CFGPath for the default. Another thing to be aware
of is the OS and who you are logged on as. If it's a network and there isn't a
smartcam.ini it will use the users default home directory. This is
why installing as the administrator can cause problems. No one can
write to the administatrators home.
A final FYI. When ever any of the apps start, the first
place it looks for it's ini file is in the directory that the executable lives
in. So if you're ever having problems figuring out where the hell the right
ini file is and you just need to get your job done, simply drop the ini file
in next to the executable and you're good to go.

Subject: [mfg-smartcam] pmill.ini
Hi all,
I've noticed that the pmill.ini file gets
installed in different folders on different computers (at least this has
been my experience). In other cases, some installations install a "backup"
pmill.ini file in a backup directory. My thinking is that possibly the OS
has something to do with this phenomenon. Since this does occur, one of the
other files in a Smartcam installation has to be pointing to the pmill.ini
location. Would this be the "CFGPath=" section in the Smartcam.ini
file?
Regards,
Chris
