Hi, I have this camera (SV 305) w/intention of using as a guide camera (and possibly a bit of imaging). I have an rPi4 w/astroberry and a couple or so weeks ago attempted to install a driver referenced in these threads, but was unsuccessful - no software would recognize the camera (Kstars/Ekos, etc). As there are several possibilities why it didn't work, could I be pointed to the location of the most current driver, and are there any guides or instructions for install in an astroberry-flashed rPi4? I should also ask if the/any driver would allow it to function as a guider? (I presume yes). My astroberry is a standard install. I do have a powered USB hub that has worked fine with the equipment, and I've tested the SV305 both through various ports on it as well as straight off the rPi4 with no luck. I HAVE connected the cam straight to the laptop and that worked fine. Thanks for any help!
