SharpCap compatibility : Changing ADU value to match the TIF one. #9

Open Gophen opened 1 year ago

Gophen commented 1 year ago

Sharpcap's Forum I've tested that this fix doesn't break compatibility with NINA but I didn't test APT. My build was mostly for testing so I didn't include the new dll and setup.exe, you might want to rebuild it and commit. Thanks for your amazing driver ! I never thought that I could use my GX80 for astro. Best regards

Hey, i have only seen the PR just now. I have tried changing the ADU to 65536 locally as per your change. Although this changes nothing to Nina i am having issues making it work with sharpcap. Sharpcap (even the latest version 4.1.x ) seems to take exposures non stop without waiting for the download to complete. Not sure how to resolve this tbh...

Hi, thank you for trying to look into the issue, I've also encountered hiccups with Sharpcap after autoring this PR but I thought the issue was on the wifi side and not the driver => application.

But maybe there's some thing we can do to narrow down the issues. First of all, do you have live view turned on : Liveview

It takes pictures continiously so that might cause the issue you're encountering. In the meanwhile, I'll do a lot of testing to get back on track on this topic

Yes  I have tried with both liveview on and off without much success. i think the issue w/ sharpcap is not related to the PR. this behaviour is for now quite random.

For info I am about to publish (say next week) a plugin for Nina to run the Lumix cameras via USB (only the ones compatible with Lumix tether).You can check my other repo GitHub - totoantibes/NinaLumixPlugin for progress...
