Marcel,
We've think that there is some setting in a MS Security patch (we haven't determined if or which) that is preventing dgate from writing the jpgs. We were ableto get the option to work great on a windows install within VMWare Fusion on a Mac. When we tried it on a different Mac VMware Windows install, it wouldn't work. We've discovered that it won't work in other windows installs. Firewall is turned off. dgate acts like it's writing the files just fine, but it ain't happening anywhere but this one virtual machine.
Has anyone else observed this?
