About the IMX636 bias
I noticed in the documentation that for the IMX636 model, only bias_diff_on/off has an effect on its sensitivity. But in my tests, I found that bias_diff also had an impact. I want to know what the details should be.
x320 writes bad data to file?
With a x320 ES (which doesn't support the EVT3 format), a patched OpenEB (to support v4l2 devices) can only write raw files of collected data -- hdf5 files open then almost instantly close without any errors. If I convert the raw files to hdf5 with `metavision_file_to_hdf5`
