I have had TRIR 5 since December, it has been working great but lately I think the overhead light in my room where I fly FSX is causing it to reflect off my glasses and intermittently it causes the cockpit to become erratic for a second then go back to normal.
Is there a setting I can change?
I have UAC off, Win 7 64, FSX Gold, latest drivers for PC and TRIR.
Thanks.
Reflecting off my glasses?

Eagle33,
You can go into the advanced settings section, select the camera tab and adjust the light filter threshold. I had the same issue and once I increased the threshold to 220+ I didn't have the problem any longer.

Re: Reflecting off my glasses?
Still happening. I tried it with the lights off in my office, no help, I turned the setting all the way up to max, no help. The ONLY way to stop it is to remove my glasses, works every time so I know it's my glasses. Unfortunately I don't wear contacts.
Please advise.

Eagle33,
Could you post a screenshot of the camera view so I can see what I'm up against? How high did you turn the light filter threshold up to? What is the IR LED brightness currently set at?

Re: Reflecting off my glasses?
Well there's no way I could post a screenshot as it happens so fast. It will flick to one view then back to normal really fast. But it's very annoying.
It only happens when I turn my head to the left or right looking at the screen.
And it ONLY happens when I wear my glasses with the overhead light on OR off.
Also, there is no sunlight anywhere near this room as the sun never enters into it. Besides, like I said, remove my glasses it's okay but then I'm blind basically.
Light filter threshold is at max of 253
IR LED brightness = 15.
