New Version 315108...(win10)
Loaded new version and my Test1(deep sky) camera image(M42) flashes then just black screen...

The test images is displayed for about 2 seconds then none... BLACK SCREEN

Test camera2 works (Jupiter) ok

Did not have a problem on older versions.. Test camera 1 worked and I could change images to my own..
tried to load other images ....he same thing..?
Old version 3.0 is fine...but not 3.1 after the download.
I removed 3.1 with control panel..then installed a older 3.1...it works. But a reinstall of the new 315108 test camera1 not good.

Hi,

I think that at some point you have reduced the exposure in the test camera, which SharpCap has auto-saved and auto-restored when you re-open the camera. The exposure and gain controls of the camera both affect the brightness of the image, so turning one or both down can give a black image.

cheers,

Robin
