No, sorry, my mistake:  The current version works (see attachment).  I forgot to use the -r 300 option last time.

Thanks.  Now I just have to get it configured properly.

I suppose this might have been possible but it didn't leap out at me and it doesn't seem to be what's intended by the developers.
