I'd already tried that, though the docs with visage say it will allow
"normal names" and I have it set up in Dopus with the mode as above,
which works fine. I also tried the modeid in hte form $500 etc. but
still no go.

I've tried that as well, and though it works, Mysticview is sooooo slow
when loading the 2048x1536 jpegs from my camera.
