Subject: Re: [Astro_IIDC] Naming Cameras?

Thanks, Milton, that's what I thought.

By the way, regarding our FW800 bandwidth/camera recognition issues of late, I've rearranged things in our dome to try and alleviate that.  I have 1m cables from the three Flea3 cameras to the FW800 hub, and then a 4.5m (soon to be a 3m cable as soon as it arrives) cable from the hub to the computer.  I tested it all day yesterday without a hitch, but today we had some video previews freezing.  My question is, of the available video formats in the larger frame sizes, which one would consume the least FW bandwidth?  Please see the attached screen shot for the formats in question.

Thanks as always!  -Kevin

I'm doubtful that there's a way to do this, but I thought I would put it out there anyway...the users of this group would know!

For our solar viewing setup, we run up to four cameras, and I thought it would be very useful for the users of this system if the cameras' GUIDs could be aliased to something a bit more descriptive; e.g., "whitelight", "H-alpha", etc.  Does anyone know if this is possible?
