How can I control my Camera Settings such as Gain and Exposure through SDK Calls?

Every camera has different features and different ways to access those features. As a result it is impossible to build an interface that will work with every camera and frame grabber combination. Camera control features have been implemented through many device drivers for Video Savant and Streams but are always done on a case by case basis. Please contact IO Industries Technical Support for assistance with this type of problem.

What is the difference between Streams 5 and Video Savant 4?

Video Savant 4 was originally designed to record from a single camera. The Pro version added "stream filters", which allowed the user to record an additional data stream such as GPS, or IRIG-B. This is a frame-based program, meaning that all devices recording will acquire data at the same point in time, which is aligned on a frame number (or buffer number). Streams 5 was designed to record from multiple cameras and multiple acquisition devices. This is a time-based program, meaning that all devices recording will acquire data continuously at the respective rate of each device. Each sample of information is time-stamped so that all devices are correlated through time. Streams introduces "timing filters", which allow the user to choose a time base (GPS, IRIG-B, system time) For a feature comparison see this link: VS4 vs ST5

Why can't I access the IO Industries FTP Site with Internet Explorer?

Internet Explorer's default settings use Passive FTP Transfers, but our FTP Site does not support this. To access our FTP Site from Internet Explorer, go to the Tools menu, select Internet Options. On the Advanced Tab, locate the setting "Use Passive FTP (For Firewall and DSL modem compatibility)" and un-check it. You may have to restart Internet Explorer before this change takes effect.
