[IDV #MKR-443485]: stereo support on idv 5.0



Hi Al,

Thanks for your continued patience. It is difficult for me to diagnose this
problem remotely, so if you don't mind, please try 5.3 stable:

What is the result? That will help me better narrow what is going on.

Please keep us up-to-date on your progress.

Best,

Unidata IDV Support
