			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Not exactly software related, but a note on the resolution settings of the C920. I've noticed that the larger the resolution you set it to, the less you can zoom. For example at 320x240 you can zoom a lot, whereas at 1920x1080 you can zoom a tiny bit, and at max resolution you can't zoom at all. This is because it's using digital zoom, which in fact means cropping the image and enlarging it to the output size. Not the best way to do zoom, quality wise. If at a higher resolution you can't zoom in as much as you want, no worries, because you can crop in on it in editing and it will be the same principal of how the zoom works in this camera. I'm guessing the best approach would be to pick the max resolution your software will allow, and then either physically move the camera as needed and/or crop in post.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[[quote=BoatsAreRockable]Right, let's try again. I have managed to replicate on another computer exactly how I got Helium Frog to work. Once again I'm really sorry for telling you the wrong thing before! (I think in excitement I somehow forgot)

[b]Here's what I [i]actually[/i] did to fix source setup error 01.01 in Helium Frog:[/b]

1) Download ZIP file for the 'beta' edition (version 2_06SW3) of Helium Frog from its source repository website [url=http://heliumfrog.codeplex.com/releases/view/45028]here[/url].

2) Extract the contents of the ZIP file. Then navigate to the extracted file and click the folder inside called 'Package', then click the file inside of this titled 'setup'.

3) A program to install Helium Frog should appear, follow through the default options in this wizard clicking 'yes' if any messages regarding 'Version Conflicts' appear.

4) Click okay to close the setup when it is complete.

[b]IMPORTANT: Do not use the version of Helium Frog you have just installed or you will experience error messages and problems.[/b]

5) Now you must download the ZIP file for the 'standard' version 2.06 of Helium Frog from the program's official website [url=http://www.heliumfrog.com/Helium_Frog/helium_frog_download/heliumfrogdownload.html]here[/url].

6) Extract the ZIP file and click the file titled 'Helium_Frog_2_06' and the program will work without the source error!

I'm not really sure why doing this worked for me but I've tried it on two Windows 8 computers now to success. I hope this works for you GreyBrick and for anyone else experiencing the same problem as I did with Helium Frog. If you have any questions I'll try to help you.

By the way, once you successfully open the 'standard' version of Helium Frog you can uninstall the 'beta' version via Windows' Control Panel.[/quote]

So long story got my computer repaired and had to put everything back on my computer including helium frog so i had to refer to this conversation again and just wanted to let you know again you were a huge help and i wouldn't have been able to figure it out on my own. This topic should be some sort of official conversation so everyone else can see it :)]]></content>

[url]http://www.heliumfrog.com/Helium_Frog/helium_frog_download/heliumfrogdownload.html[/url]

Although I have a feeling it will still not work for you. I'm really sorry to create confusion but I think it was actually something else I did which made Helium Frog start working for me.

It is slightly complicated and involves downloading a developer version of Helium Frog, but I'll try to explain it (and test it on another windows 8 computer) when I'm not using my phone tomorrow for you.]]></content>

[i]YES!!! I have finally got Helium Frog to work on Windows 8 without the source setup error! I think this is a common problem because I found threads complaining on both Bricksfilms.com and Brick a Brack.[/i]

[i]Anyway I think this (should) work:

After downloading a fresh copy of Helium Frog from the official website [url=http://www.heliumfrog.com/Helium_Frog/helium_frog_download/heliumfrogdownload.htmll] here[/url] extract its ZIP file and then if either of the two highlighted files above are present delete them.[/i]]]></content>
