My INDI build script does not include indi_libcamera_ccd because it is not yet stable. There is some manual patches to the libcamera source that is required. I have not attempted this build yet. The source for indi should still be located at ~/Projects/src/indi_3rdparty/indi-libcamera
.
The other option would be to use indi_pylibcamera which is an alternative method for managing a libcamera camera remotely. https://github.com/aaronwmorris/indi-allsky/wiki/indi_pylibcamera-setup
Great, thank you for the answer, I will take a look to the documentation provided. The idea is to control a remote PI Hq camera connected to raspberry from indi-allsky installed on Ubuntu server and unload the raspberrpy pi 3 CPU when doing timelapses. With Altair astro, already is working in this way. Consider the issue closed on my side.Thanks again!
That makes perfect sense. A few people have already done this with indi_pylibcamera, so hopefully it will work well for you.
We can keep this open if you have any other issues. I will close it out after a few weeks.
all working fine with indi_pylibcamera! Test done with Indi-all sky on Ubuntu and the PI HQ camera connected on remote Pi 3 with indi_pulibcamera installed. I had just an issue, a library was missed "Couldn't open libGLESv2.so.2", when I issued the commands to verify that libcamera is fine before to use indi_pylibcamera: libcamera-still -r --mode 1332:990 --shutter 100000 --gain 1 --awbgains 1,1 --immediate -o test.jpg and fixed with command: sudo apt-get install libgles2-mesa
Thanks!Have a good day!
Hello, when I connect from remote with Ekos, indiserver provide the "indi_simulator_ccd" and not the IMX 477 or libcamera or indi_rpicamera and photos are all black: pi@astro:~ $ ps ax | grep indiserver 802 ? Ss 0:14 /usr/local/bin/indiserver -p 7624 indi_simulator_telescope indi_simulator_ccd
The goal is to put indi-allsky on ubuntu PC and control the indi-allsky on raspberry PI with Pi HQ camera, in order to unload the CPU of raspberry. The Ubuntu PC with indi-allsky will act like client for indiserver on indi-allsky installed on raspberry pi 3 with Pi HQ camera connected.
Thanks
