I use kstars-bleeding 5:15.12+r5667.251
With a remote indiserver on a distant raspberry PI.

What i did notice is if i issue the following command to my Canon 7D before starting the indiserver
gphoto2 --set-config capturetarget=0 to use Internal RAM
then I set the tranfert format to <strong>Native</strong>
and the Upload setting to <strong>Client</strong>
Directory set to /home/hugh/astrophoto

The file i downloaded and correctly routed to the designed folder with consistent naming
eg: /home/hugh/astrophoto/Light/obj_Light_180_secs_001_2016-04-18T00:12:05.cr2

But if i ussue the following command to my camera before starting indiserver
gphoto2 --set-config capturetarget=1 to use Memory Card
same config in ekos
then I set the tranfert format to <strong>Native</strong>
and the Upload setting to <strong>Client</strong>
Directory set to /home/hugh/astrophoto

The file is routed to my home directory with only a timestamp:
eg: /home/hugh/file_2016-04-18T00:12:05.CR2

It would be cool to have a good file routing with capturetarget set to Memory Card
as we can capture the file on the laptop + mcard as backup (we only need to remove the delete routing on the gphoto_driver.c)
=> providing the same workflow as backyardEOS

I will test this today on my Canon and report on the issue. Your patch is also applied so will test that as well. Thanks!

Hi knro,

How about an option only same image in the memory card ?
My friend use kstars/indi/canon ALL in raspberry pi 2, download image from camera to kstars/ekos is really crazy slow.
I know there is an option the set upload target to driver, but only save in the memory card will more efficient for dslr camera I think.

You can set upload to "LOCAL" and it will not upload anything. However, I don't know how to make it only save in the camera memory. If you know how it's done, the source code is there!
