Images saving and Alpaca support #85

Open Sylvain-BROCAS opened 4 months ago

Hi, Congratulations for this great soft!

I'm not sure to understand where are stored the picture taken during the session. Is it stored on the Pi SD or on the phone ?

Have you already considered to add support for the Alpaca solution of ASCOM to control the mount ? I'm currently trying to create a small very portable GT mount and your soft is exactly what I wanted to have to control the mount.

I'm open to help for this implementation

Hello,

Picture are stored on the system that runs the indi server. So it will be the PI SD.

About Alpaca, mobindi is really coupled to indi, especially for camera control. Are you considering using alpaca only for mount control ? The impact would be lighter, I guess it would only be some sync / goto calls to hide behind an interface.

Ok thank you, Are you connected to any discord or forum to have a call about my project?

I've started to develop an alpaca driver but I'm still in a research phase so I can change but I would keep the work that was already done

The aspect of your project I'm interested in is that it's extremely portable, no need of a PC for Goto+guiding, it's a plus for an ultralight mount.
