Hi,

I happen to own a cam with the same USB id myself, and it shows the same
issues as described by Eric. Changing the bridge id does not help I'm
afraid.

I'm afraid I don't have the time to fix this in the near future (it is on
my to do but no idea when I'll get around to it). But I'm more then willing
to test any fixes.

Regards,

Hans
