@SigvaldS:
I opened an issue github.com/scriptorron/indi_pylibcamera/issues/15 in my GitHub project. Can we move the discussion there? It would be boring for the other people here.

Hello everyone, first of all, I must congratulate everyone here for their work and effort in making this cameras work with Kstars.
I was able to make the HQ Camera work with the excelente guide made by Simon, but tried to do the same on Stellarmate without success. I know that apparently the issue comes from the libcamera version used in stellarmate.
Is there any workaround in order to get bullseye's version of libcamera in stellarmate?
Thanks!

@SANTIAGO No, unfortunatelly using HQ camera on Stellarmate is still no go!

I have just tested it again on fresh installation Stellarmate OS 1.7.5 with latest upgrades, but I still get Error when connection to HQ Camera with Ekos.
I guess all we can do is to wait untill Stellarmate revert back to libcamera that came with Bullseye OS and not that from GIT.

I saw that a new version of Stellarmate is out (1.7.6), maybe there is something new regarding this driver?

Maybe now with 1.7.7?
One question, when Stellarmate App tells me that there are updates, it updates everything to the new SM version (from 1.7.6 to 1.7.7)?
Best,

@Jasem Maybe you know someone that have enough knowledge to include this driver github.com/scriptorron/indi_pylibcamera into indi-3rdparty library? It's was developed by Ronald Schreiber. It's python INDI libcamera driver that was tested and I think it would be great addition to library. I don't know if it's even possible to include python driver?

Currently, it's not possible to include this in the official repo. I hope someone can develop and maintain the current indi-libcamera driver.

@Yasem: Yeah I agree. At least compilation error is now fixed. And we get driver listed inside KStars.
