Hi Maayan.
Thanks for the reply! Yes, I'd opened a case with Nvidia and learned
that I needed to use HWS (rather than SWS) and the template API. So
that fixes that problem.!
Unfortunately my next problem is in switching to HWS I lose the
sample/mirror feature, so I'm investigating workarounds for that.
regards
Tony
