rory 0 Posted November 19, 2005 was thinking, if the highest resolution of some cards are only 640x480, why dont they design the software in 640x480 ... it makes sense .. cause then you have higher quality video ... at least it will seem like that. Its very easy to have the program switch the screen res to 640x480 automatically when it opens, then switch it back to the normal res on exit ... they then just design the buttons, etc, smaller so it looks normal. Also same goes for 720x480 res, should be in 800x600 screen res. Just a thought .. Switch your screen res to the highest recording/viewing res of the card and see what i mean. If you are using an LCD then, well, doesnt matter a whole lot anyway, but for a CRT, it is an improvement. It should at least be a thought for full single camera view. They should also consider a stand alone emulation mode, where the user never sees a windows type GUI, all full screen and using an IR remote to pop up the search screen. Yah know for the clients you dont want touching anything .. heck they dont even need a search mode .. touch screen monitor also would help. Rory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thomas 0 Posted November 21, 2005 If your recording at 640 x 480 then your app needs to be in at least 800 x 600 to have anything other then one channel of video. But everything looks like crap till you get to 1024 x 768. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
