Oleg, I didn't update the firmware of the camera, just parsedit. The immediate key works, a much nicer system than I had before.
I will reflash the new firmware onto one of my cameras when I get a chance just to try things out. The problem is I have a couple clients who already have cameras and I just want to update their parsedit files since that is much easier than the entire firmware. I did some digging into some issues I was having with the jpeg compression and line-scan mode . I will update the thread I previously started on that topic.
