    more info needed about your capture settings. are you using the full 1280x960 format or ROI format, what exposure time?
  4. Pete Presland
    its been a while since i used firecapture, but i think the USB traffic setting has been there for a while, it is certainly on my older version. i normally have mine set around 55-60% high enough to allow a good frame rate, not too high to start dropping frames. 13 fps is pretty slow, what are you imaging?

      It's also a possibility for tonight (and might even be clear).

      Last night Aurora was seen well into Norfolk (according to bbc this morning).
