Hi! @dave
First of all, I would like to reference a forum post by me ( https://forum.commonvisionblox.com/t/how-to-update-driver-memory-after-changing-camera-parameters/1526 ) which demonstrates how to update the memory allocated by the driver. You need to do this because you are changing parameters that directly concern the memory for an image, otherwise, it could lead to not being able to correctly interpret the new image data.
To answer your second question, you would need to set the parameter in the token before opening the device:
token.SetParameter("PixelFormat", "3") #'3' means 'Mono16Bit'
normally it is set to “5” which means Auto Detect.
To solve your first question we would need to do some investigation. Could you please tell us your OS and CVB Version?
Regards
Silas
