Hello
Thank you for this great application.
In version 6 I have problems letting Yawcam read service_profile.cfg.
When starting it always creates .yawcam in users folder even if I have orther information in service_profile.cfg.
I have been using the old way of starting multiple cameras by adding service to start.bat and using disablerunningcheck.txt.
Using this i think I can start application in any order I want. Cam2 before Cam1 and so on.
What am I missing here? In version 5 I succeded doing like this.

Problems reading service_profile.cfg
Re: Problems reading service_profile.cfg
First double check that your start.bat has the word "service" added at the end. It might have been overwritten when you upgraded to version 0.6.0.
Also, one of the news in 0.6.0 is that disablerunningcheck.txt has been removed and replaced with a real option in the settings.
You'll find it here: "Settings -> Edit Settings... -> Startup -> Confirm multiple instances"

Re: Problems reading service_profile.cfg
Of course you were right.
sevice was missing in start.bat.
Thanks
If the first loaded camera has another setting in service_profile.cfg will the next follow i.e creating a filder "2" in the folder service_profile.cfg points to ?
And then be able to use the new functionality ?

Re: Problems reading service_profile.cfg
I'm not sure I understand what you mean here...
But here is an example:
If you install Yawcam to C:\Program Files\Yawcam1
and update the C:\Program Files\Yawcam1\service_profile.cfg to contain:
C:\Yawcam_settings1
When you start the file C:\Program Files\Yawcam1\Yawcam.exe
it will use the settings located in C:\Yawcam_settings1\yawcam_settings.xml
If you start the file C:\Program Files\Yawcam1\Yawcam.exe a second time,
it will use the settings located in C:\Yawcam_settings1\2\yawcam_settings.xml
After this, if you install Yawcam to C:\Program Files\Yawcam2
and update the C:\Program Files\Yawcam2\service_profile.cfg to contain:
C:\Yawcam_settings2
When you start the file C:\Program Files\Yawcam2\Yawcam.exe
it will use the settings located in C:\Yawcam_settings2\yawcam_settings.xml
If you start the file C:\Program Files\Yawcam2\Yawcam.exe a second time,
it will use the settings located in C:\Yawcam_settings2\2\yawcam_settings.xml

Re: Problems reading service_profile.cfg
Hello
You understood correctly.
Thank you
I will use the "old" setup for handling more cams on the the same machine because it gives me the possibility to start them i any order I want.
I can also have many setups for the same cam in different profiles choosing the setup I prefer for the moment.
