Bravo, and thank you a lot for this software

I have a spyder 2 colorimeter ( whith colorvision colorplus) ,( maybe not
the same as the spider 2 express?? )

On my destop computer with a pro 454 iiyama  CRT monitor, all is ok after
installing libusb-win32

On the netbook and externall lcd monitor , measurements are sometimes
wrong.

Dispcal -yl -R (or -r) is fast and ok , with always same measures.

But dispcal -yl -v-o esai gives unstable and curious results:

        Check all :
         Current Brightness = 0.00
         Target 50% Level  = -1.#J, Current =  0.00, error = -1.$%
         Target Near Black =  0.00, Current =  0.00, error = -1.$%
         Current white = x 0.0000, y 0.0000, VDT 48718K DE  1.$
         Target black = x 0.0000, y 0.0000, Current = x 0.0000, y 0.0000,
error =  1.#R DE

After some try , check all is ok ,if it is the first choice (5) after
starting dispcal

        Check all:

        Black = XYZ   0.89   0.94   0.93
        Grey  = XYZ   6.19   6.43   6.22
        White = XYZ  72.84  76.56  68.68
        1%    = XYZ   1.77   1.84   1.69
        
          Current Brightness = 76.56
          Target 50% Level  = 14.51, Current =  6.43, error = -10.5%
          Target Near Black =  0.77, Current =  1.88, error =  1.5%
          Current white = x 0.3340, y 0.3511, VDT 5401K DE  1.7
          Target black = x 0.3340, y 0.3511, Current = x 0.3341, y 0.3474,
error =  2.91 DE

But if the first choice after starting dispcal is 1 to 4,  I get the bad
result

With the choice 1, the first measurements are wrong

        1) Black level (CRT: Offset/Brightness)
        Doing some initial measurements
        Black = XYZ   0.00   0.00   0.00
        Grey  = XYZ   0.00   0.00   0.00
        White = XYZ   0.00   0.00   0.00

        Adjust CRT brightness to get target level. Press space when done.
        Target 0.00
        /Current 0.00 =
        \Current 0.00 =
        /Current 0.00 =
        \Current 0.00 =
        /Current      432085.45
        \ Current 0.93  -08  -

same type of problems whith choice 2,3,4..

I read the similar thread of December on spyder 2 , without finding a clear
solution

thank you for help
