[Elphel-support] 10359

Hello Oleg!

1. What I was thinking of was a new mode where the frame of sensor two
is right of the frame of sensor one. Thus combining two frames into one
final picture with double width. Do mean that this mode is already
implemented?

2. I tried the x359.bit and the 10359_controls.html" and
"10359_mcontr_init.php.

I got:

Alternation mode: is working fine.
Alternation mode with buffering: every second picture is broken (I guess
the one which is buffered)
Stereo Mode: does nothing, shows always the frames from sensor 1 (what
should it do?)
