QHY9s-C QHY9 COLOR WORK ARROUND

I have been given a QHY9s-C. After setting it up and the system recognised it without any problems (although as a mono) I noticed that the images only had one channel.

So looking at the indi-qhy code in the qhy_ccd.cpp file I noticed that a call is made on line 977 inside "Color Support" in the bool function QHYCCD::Connect()
 ret = IsQHYCCDControlAvailable(m_CameraHandle, CAM_COLOR);

I assumed that the QHY SDK was not working properly. To test my theory I put the following line below.

ret = BAYER_RG;

After this, the camera has started to work in colour.

Right now I don't know who to notify and how to notify QHY so they can fix their SDK, if they provide one.

I guess one way to fix that would be to apply this patch for a specific camera identifier.

Regards.

I emailed QHY to take a look at this.
