[AG-TECH] New Camera

[Ronald Crummett]

When I use the camera with other applications I can see everything fine.  I 
have tried adjusting the configuration as mentioned, but it doesn't help all 
that much.  I can almost see myself in the video now, but still not nearly 
as good as when I am using other programs.  Any further suggestions?  Thanks 
again!
