 How to get a EDID file:
  * Preferred way: Script by Florolf that will create EDID files for the projector/display connected at a given machine: https://github.com/voc/scripts/blob/master/vgabroadcaster/make-edid.pl
 If you want to force a special resolution, or subset of resolutions (e.g. prefer 16:9, no 16:10 only fallback 4:3)

-The broadcasters are available via 192.168.255.250, no matter which IP is configured on the web interface. To reach it, set up your computer with IP address 192.168.255.249 using 255.255.255.252 as netmask.
-The integrated 4 GB USB stick fits 3-4 hours of video at 1280x720 (H264, incl. Audio). The broadcaster can be configured such that it doesn't record anything if there is no input signal (VGA/DVI).
+Framegrabber settings: The Web admin interface contains most of the information that you need to make image adjustments including a brief description of the effect of each adjustment and the adjustment range.
+To make an adjustment, add a value to one or more fields and select Apply.
-It can take up to 10 minutes for the broadcaster to come up.
+**To clear any adjustments, delete the value from one or more fields and select Apply. To have changes take effect, you must reboot the VGA Broadcaster Lite device.** You can make more than one change before selecting Apply and rebooting.
-If you wish to replace the USB stick with a larger model, please make sure to ext-3-format the stick and move the files from the old stick. Do not use dd.
