Hi Eddie,
The only thing that needs to be running is the Camera Server, the code in Simple Vision is what it was intended to work with.

I actually haven't tried running with Intermediate Vision code, but I didn't change anything about the networking code, so I'm not sure what the issue might be. If you're running Intermediate Vision or otherwise post-processing the image before sending it to the drive station, there's no benefit to running my version of the applet, though, since the robot would already be fixing the image as described in my OP. If you're taking this approach, I would recommend the vanilla USB Webcam Viewer.

Best,
