How can I get the CDC-X Preview?
Currently, the CDC-X preview available as an alpha test for Windows, Linux and Mac.
Once you download the installer, run it and install the program as usual.
If you are using cdc32, you will be notified when there is a general beta release.
Will I lose all my zaps if I install CDC-X?
No. CDC-X preview installs into a completely separate folder. CDC-X will not modify your existing cdc32 installation in any way.
Will I get a new account when I use CDC-X preview?
Yes. This is a completely new system, and it creates a new separate account when you first run the program. Your old cdc32 account is not affected by this. Before final release, we will upgrade existing accounts into the new CDC-X system.
Can I run CDC32 and CDC-X at the same time?
Yes, but you will have to change the network port settings in CDC-X to use different ports. You can do that in Setup|advanced... and select the "network" tab. Also, you will have to arrange for CDC32 and CDC-X to use different cams (or use a cam splitting program.)
Why does CDC-X install into "My Documents" intead of "Program Files"?
This is so you can run CDC-X as a completely un-priviledged user on Windows Vista and XP. By installing locally in My Documents, each user on your computer can have a completely separate and secure copy of CDC-X.
I have a red "NO CAMERA" on the status bar.
Well, this is painful, BUT... after having DX9-only support, we have now gone back to VFW-only CDC-X by default in the current beta software. This is because our DX9 solution just isn't working right. So, if your camera doesn't have DX9 drivers, you will not be able to use CDC-X currently. We are working on this problem.
How do I uninstall CDC-X preview?
Use the control panel in whatever version of windows you have, and then select "Add/Remove programs". Remove CDC-X there. You can also just delete the installation folder (usually My Documents\Dwyco\CDC-X, CDC-X makes no modifications to your system except in the installation folder.
How can I get the Linux and Mac versions?
Just ask (send email to cdchelp@dwyco.com, or to Dwyco in cdc32.) The Linux version is significantly further along than the Mac version, but both are usable. There are currently no "installers" for either version, so you will have to be able to use the command line to unpack TAR files.
