<p>Well rats. Is there any way to fix/amend/overlay the video of
the talk? I hate for it to have wrong information. And that
mistake is in there 3 times... <br>

<p>Hi Pat,</p>
<p>The answer to the first question is yes, and I see that was not
very clear in the talk. The read encoder drivers are returning
the derivative of the encoder counts, i.e., the number of counts
since the last reading, and not the cumulative count.</p>
<p>For the second question, yes you are correct, that should be
divided by clicks per inch, not multiply.</p>
<p> My bad. Wonder what else I got wrong...</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>David</p>
