Manage to connect to all my equipment but sadly my ASI120MC cannot capture anything from RPI4. I already tried both USB3.0 and 2.0. The same thing happens.

No problem at all on my Rpi3B.

Any ideas guys?

The ASI120 does not work well with INdI, as the firmware is outdated, you really need the USB 3 version...
Many people have issues with that camera, there is a firmware upgrade for it, but not sure how easy it is to do... :)

Hi,

can show me the link or steps how to do that firmware upgrade? I do not want to waste money to invest another guide cam since my 120MC still works very well on guiding. I am now a planetary guy!

Thanks. Already done that long time ago and it works fine for guiding on my Rpi3B.

If it doesn't work on the RPi4 then I am afraid that the ZWO forum is the only place to ask for help.

I will check our PhD log viewer. I haven’t used it myself. I use PhD often

I would very much like to undo the disabled media auto mounting as I like to have my images saved directly to a USB stick while imaging.
I believe there are other ways to avoid the dslr conflict as you pointed out.
At the very least that step in the script could be made optional with a user prompt before execution.

Thank you.

Ok, I tried to do the PHD2 Log Viewer.
For the setupAstroPi3 and setupUbuntuSBC scripts, it was a piece of cake. I was done in 5 minutes. But for the Raspbian script, it was much harder, but I think it is working. The Debian and Manjaro scripts would probably be similar to the Raspbian one, but I will need to try it. test it, and work on that.

As for the Canon auto mount issue. 2 years ago, Jasem had fixed this problem with a rules file. That rules file gets installed with every INDI build. So it shouldn't have been a problem at all. I hadn't used the automount disabling code in years because his rules file was working. But on the Raspbian system, for some reason it wasn't, as reported in this forum. So I added the code back for disabling auto mounting. No that is not good because it disables USB Flash drive mounts. The real solution would be to figure out why the rules file is not working on Raspbian and provide a similarly good solution. I can take a look at this tomorrow, but no guarantees.
