Last night I had some nice skies, so I tried recording .ser again using my remote setup. I am having the same problem. When directly connected, it records usable files, when remote and hitting the record button, the files end up unusable like the previously attached one.
NUC on scope, remote is a PC, both with latest INDI/Ekos/kstars. Go to streaming in control panel, start watching the stream, stream looks great. Hit record button on stream viewer, no joy.
I was able to get it to work one time by using the INDI control panel. I cannot get it to work correctly when just hitting the record button in the stream viewer. I now cannot repeat the one success either. Th 16 bit still does not work for me to stream, even with plenty of bandwidth, though I could not tell from the discussion if this was supposed to be working now or not. The stream viewer shows just a solid white image even though the frame rate is changing, so I had been playing with the 8bit settings, which streams the video just fine. it just won't record data, just noise.
What can I do to help figure this one out? I am attaching to a remote machine running INDI servers.
I have a server at the scope and a client in my office. When I record streams from my office they are being recorded on the server machine only. I assume this is what it's supposed to be like. Can we have a feature that would automatically transferr the file to the client or is this implemented already and I am too blind to see?
Ok, could that be changed? Optional transfer of the .SER file to the client after its recording has been finalized would be fine. Just like .FIT and and .CR2 files are trasferred.
