Gergely, yes, of course it is possible todo - you may use autocampars.php - it is linked from the camera top page as "Parameter Editor". Among other things it allows you to create multiple settings sets and select - which one will be applied at startup.

Can you please provide more details about the settings of the camera and how you control the parameters? Corrupted images may happen in two cases - if the requested image compression quality and frame rate exceeds the network bandwidth or if something is wrong in controlling parameters. You may try to restore the image if you change frame size of the image - that will force camera to restore the correct frame.
