Yes, I've noticed that. Is this a limitation of the N900's hardware,
and independent of the connected device? If so, we can probably get
the parameters via trial-and-error and disable non-working
combinations in the UI. But right now, it's not that big of a problem,
as one can just pull back the scale value until the picture comes
back.

Done. Uploaded to Extras-Devel. I'm unable to create a Merge Request,
so you can just grab the latest commit from this repo if you want to
merge it:
