- You people! This poor guy writes a program and uploads it for
- all our use, and all you can do is bitch him out. If you notice,
- it was written by Wendell Hicken, not Hicken Software, or
- anything else that would imply a company with the resources to
- beta-test every possible hardware combination. Let's see you do
- better!

- To address the problems, RTFM. You have to use the 640x480 resolution
- option. the 640x480P option is solely for the Paradise cards. I
- have yet to come across a single bug to this program. It runs
- fine on my 386 with Stacker so the compression routine for it is
- not a factor.
-
- Also, a friend of mine spoke to Mr. Hicken over the net, and
- suggested what became the 'synchronous mode' option. Any
- programmer who takes good suggestions to heart is A-OK in my book
