Sorry.

i attached the wrong logs file. Here the correct one

Thanks

Can you please turn on the complete debug log before you press connect? I need to see the initial properties of the camera because it seems that it's getting stuck in finding optimal exposures under 1 second which are usually taken from the camera's predefined list (e.g. 1/4000)

i hope this is ok.

and i have another question: about "Save" option in configuration of GPhoto CCD in INDI control Panel, how does this should work? every time i connect Camera i change options and then click "save" but every time the options reset to default. I tried to click "LOAD" but nothing change. "Save" botton should create a file?

Hi Jasem,

Had you tried to fix the issue for exposure <= 1s?

Thanks

No you didn't Debug & Logging on before you connected as I asked. Please do that, the log file would be big and contain all your camera properties.

Ok. Sorry

I bilieved to debug & logging before connection. Maybe i did something wrong

Now i'm out for work. i'll try another test in next days.

Thanks

Here's the log file.

this should be ok; i hope.

after connection i tried two different exposure:
2 s: ok.
1 s: crash. i must stop manually and no capture

So if you check the file yourself you will see no obvious property for pre-selected exposure times like 1/8000, but one drew my attention:
So it could be that it is set to 0 --> 16777215 which is 2^24 (BULB?) while the others are used for microseconds? I don't know, please ask around in GPhoto mailing list or elsewhere, find out which property listed in that file is the one used to select the shutter speeds and then I can update the driver accordingly.

Hi Jasem,

I asked in GPhoto mailing list. i had a reply to my post.

Could you help me? I think there is something strange in reply post: i believe that indi-ekos use last libgphoto2 but Marcus said that libgphoto2 2.5.6 and newer decode the "shutterspeed" option for Sony Alpha....

sourceforge.net/p/gphoto/mailman/gphoto-user/?viewmonth=201612

You can type this to know your libgphoto2 version:
I think you can also runand send that over to them. If the shutterspeed is decoded then it should show there as a property not as d20 or d21e..etc

Hi Jasem,

My version is 2.5.9, so should be ok...i wrote this to gphoto mailinglist and i'm waiting reply.

In gphoto website i notice that the latest version is 2.5.11 that seems to improve Sony Alpha features. Maybe the 2.5.11 can solve the problem.

I would like to upgrade my version but i don't know how.

hi Jasem,
i had not reply from gphoto mailing list so, with my friend's help i upgraded libgphoto (i think).
Now apt-cache policy libgphoto2-dev is
libgphoto2-dev:
Installato: (nessuno)
Candidato: 2.5.9-3
Tabella versione:
2.5.11-1 500
500 archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu zesty/main i386 Packages
2.5.9-3 990
990 archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main i386 Packages

in attachment the new gphoto2 --list-all-config where i can see Label: Shutter Speed.

I tried with new upgrade to take exposure <= 1 second but the problems are not solved. In attachment the log file.

Can you do something to solve the iussue with this new informations?

Thanks so much for your patience

Giuseppe
