Thanks....I was just testing to see if by some chance I could get an old Orion Starshoot DSCI II to work with KStars via ASCOM but no joy. In KStars, I had to choose a CCD so I just picked the simulator for the profile and it connects to INDI Server for Windows and shows the starshoot ASCOM camera but it won't connect to it giving the following error:
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {8045B417-0588-4B74-8D60-A8D1C4CA90CE} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))
I figured it was a long shot but worth a try....Great job on this by the way. It's great to have ASCOM capabilities with INDI.
Indeed it was. Loaded it up on an older Windows XP machine and it connects to the camera. However, It won't download any image. It takes the exposure and then EKOS just stalls with the spinner.
It is not wINDI issue, at least if used from control panel, it does work correctly (I tried it now). It seems, that something translates slash to backslash, maybe Ekos for Windows? Peter
Only happens when connecting to wINDI server remotely. I haven't tried wINDI server locally. This doesn't occur when connecting locally or remotely to default INDI server.
