Stellarmate App - "No Live Stacking Images found" and no Image visible

Hi,

when trying to do live stacking in the stellarmate app, I do not see any image, nor is it possible to view the image pressing the image-button. I get the error "No Live Stacking Images found".

- Object is centered and can be imaged (verified)
- Settings for Live Stackings are set, and the software is taking pictures ("Capturing")
- my pictures are save to a stick /media/stellarmate/mystick (the directory is readable)
- fresh Stellarmate-App installation

An EKOS session from a Desktop PC is attached (but this really should not interfere). When I detach the PC session and reconnect EKOS in the app, I get the same error and no picture at all.

In Stellarmate VNC I can see the folder is beeing created onto the stick, but it is empty.

Any clue?

Cheers, Axel

Turns out it is an external storage mount issue. In the next release, we will notify users if there are issues with mounting external storage.

Hi Jasem,

thanks a lot for the answer in Stellarmate Support :-) Indeed, after Jasem told me to look into the EKOS-live log (e.g. through SM-dashboard stellarmate.local:3000/#/diagnostics) I could see, that the USB-Stick had not been mounted.
I can confirm on the new SM 1.7.7, that this is still the case.

The message for the "falllback" solution is new, if I remember right.
I appreciate it, if a warning will occur :-)

For long term run, I ordered a NVME adapter for the Pi (USB3) and will mount this permanently in fstab.
Probably a hardware issue with my USB3.0 hub:

It was not only a mount problem with the stick (which it really was :-)):After fixed, I did not see anything either ...
But problem solved: did not turn on "Tranfer Images" in the "Settings" menu. Problems always sits between the back of the chair and the display :-|

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers, Axel
