So, I'm not sure if this has always been an issue for me, or if I just did not notice it before, but eveytime I restart OpenPnP, the settings of the down cam seems to go back to defaults.
The settings looks correct in the camera setting tab, but the camera has not actually got them reloaded after start. If I nudge each setting the camera will be good again. In my setup, the most irritating one is the exposure time, which will be brought to around 20 (defualt of 165 is way too long).
I realize this could be a camera issue, a driver issue, or OpenPnP. (Linux computer)
I get these messages in the console, which looks related...

I don't see any issue with my up camera, but that maybe because it is close enough to the defaults, so it isn't really visible (and doesn't really matter).
Not a huge thing, but a bit annoying, and I suppose it would be good to know if this is only in my setup, or not. Or maybe well known issue?
