Ok, thanks, I will try that.

I must say that I am not extremely happy about this different
drivers and firmware situation. Now there are more differences
between the firmwares too, one (probably) has working OSD, the
other has new CAM handing. I do hope that we can get those two
tracks together someday and join all the good efforts instead.
There are probably good reasons for both tracks, but I can't
believe that they couldn't be combined.
