I don't currently remember the solution to this one. I think the issue was related to the driver SDK being updated. I don't know what happened afterward. I can ask.

I believe I was the original poster, I didn't find a solution. I tried using the QHY Camera driver as was suggested to me, but that didn't work either. I continued using PHD2 for guiding, which does recognise the Starshooter, and works fine in conjunction with EKOS. I hope that's of some help.

Thanks for the info. I guess I'll be switching to PHD.

I've noticed problems with this driver/camera on Windows and Linux. The solution was to manual build the driver from the source code and that solved the problem. I just don't have a clue how to compile from source on a Mac.

I just asked Jasem about this, it is a complicated answer and I hope I got this right. He said that apparently the SSAG is a generic name for a bunch of cameras. The first generation was QHY based, so that driver worked for them, but not for the later models. There is another INDI driver called indi-orion-ssg3 driver works with the StarShoot G3 and G4 cameras. But there are other StarShoot Cameras too.

Thanks for looking into this. I've tried all the Orion SSxx drivers with no luck. It's weird that it works just fine on my Windows and Linux machines.
