			When a startup screen is specified in the "open_image" parameter, this parameter specifies the
	open_image_time	Yes	display time. The time is specified in milliseconds (1/1000 sec.), and the default value is 0. The image
			is displayed until the first video frame appears. Values from 0 to 30000 (30 seconds) can be specified.

	show_capture	Yes	This function specifies whether the Snapshot button is displayed. Specify "on" or "off". The
	show_capture	Yes	default value is "on". The button is always displayed unless "off" is explicitly specified.

	show_counter	Yes	This function displays the frame count as an overlay on the video image. Specify "on" or "off". The default value is "off".
	show_fps	Yes	This function displays the frame rate as an overlay on the video image. Specify "on" or "off". The default value is "off".
	show_hostname	Yes	This function displays the host name as an overlay on the video image. Specify "on" or "off". The
