Actually, you can do that yourself (and this might be the problem).

For cameras based on the Philips chipsets (Philips, most Logitech), 
there are "user" defaults which are stored in flash on the camera.

If you open the video settings dialog, and go to the "general" tab in 
the "IOXperts" panel, you'll see 3 buttons at the bottom under the 
"Settings:" label: save/restore/defaults

Hitting "Save" will save whatever the current setting to the cameras 
"user defaults" which are used to initialize the camera whenever it's 
opened.

"Restore" will reset all the camera controls to the last settings you saved.

"Defaults" will restore the camera to its factory settings (and save 
them as the user settings).

So, first try restoring the camera to its factory settings and see if 
that helps -- if not, make the changes you want and then hit "Save" 
-- that should fiz your problem permanently.

If you thing the factory settings are way off, I can look into 
overriding them in the driver.

HTH,

-Steve
