Hi, I'm trying to get a 16-bit raw video from my Altair AA26CTEC camera. I am using KStars 3.6.9, INDI library 2.0.5 and pyindi 1.9.1 on an Ubuntu 22 laptop. In the INDI Control Panel in KStars I can select RAW16 in the image setting and it works to get 16 bit fits image in the python client using pyindi. If I switch to streaming mode (for a higher frame rate), I can only choose between RAW and MJPEG and I do not get 16 bit images in python.
Does anybody know how to get 16 bit raw in a video stream?
Cheers,
Lukas

This is the code I use to get an image from the video stream

indiclient.setBLOBMode(PyIndi.B_ALSO, 'Altair AA26CTEC', "CCD1")
...
ccd_ccd1 = indiclient.device.getBLOB("CCD1")
blob = ccd_ccd1[0]
blobdata = blob.getblobdata()  # size is 25941632 bytes which is 6224×4168 as unint8
# If I use the image mode and not the streaming mode, I get 51891840 bytes
