multi-columns bloom ccd #1239

Closed fcbarclo closed 2 days ago

fcbarclo commented 2 months ago

Using Oculus Pro 180 all sky camera , on a raspberry pi 4 8gb ram, ssd disk, and bullseye os. Latest version of indi allsky. During day it shows multi-columns bloom on the area overexposed (it seems that there is not any setting to manage overexpose for this camera). This multi-columns attach_1 increases during day , up to completely fill the image (mainly if there are clouds), like this attach_2 or this : attach_2_2

During night, it is fine for the most cases, but sometimes i will get image like: attach_3

All settings relative to, min, max, default exposure are set to 0 (auto)

Thank you for being patient. I had to complete a merge for this.

If you could update the the latest code, I added a new script to explore all of the properties available for a camera.

Once updated and restarted, please report the output of the following commands:

./misc/support_info.sh
source virtualenv/indi-allsky/bin/active

./misc/camera_properties.py

Following is the support_info.sh output: support_info.txt

and the output of the camera_properties.py: camera_properties.txt

I was hoping there would be something... anything... that could be changed, but there is nothing available. This mirrors my experience with other Starlight Xpress cameras. They have a fixed gain and almost no options to make any other adjustments. It is very unfortunate because the nighttime performance is quite good (with stretching).
