Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers How to deal with incomplete image files Post 302535029 by CinciJeff on Wednesday 29th of June 2011 11:51:16 AM

The software uploads images every second or so. I'd be fine with every 5 or 10 seconds. I can dig around the software settings and see if I can increase the time between uploads, though I seem to remember that this wasn't an option. If I do increase the lag time, the probability of an incomplete file decreases, but it doesn't guarantee anything.

Regarding renaming the files, I don't have a way to do this though the software.
