RaspberryPi HQ Camera does not show in INDI Web Manager #185

Open sajmons opened 2 years ago

When selecting Device manager tab in indiwebmanager web interface, Local Drivers dropdown does not contain HQ Camera. I was using following procedure:

I guess it's the indi-rpicam driver installation procedure issue.

Thanks for reporting. It looks like the driver is missing xml file. Create /usr/share/indi/indi_rpicam.xml and copy the following content to this file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<driversList>
<devGroup group="CCDs">
    <device label="RPI Camera">
        <driver name="RPI Camera">indi_rpicam</driver>
        <version>1.3</version>
    </device>
</devGroup>
</driversList>

You can do it by running sudo nano /usr/share/indi/indi_rpicam.xml then copying the above content, then ctrl+o to save, then ctrl+x to exit. After restarting indiwebmanager or rebooting the system the driver will be available on the list.
