Hi

I'm currently running the kstar-Ekos-Indi package on a tinker.
Since two weeks, I'm trying to control my sony Alpha7s without success.
My config is : Ubuntu 16.04 xenial - Kstars 2.9.6 -
INDI Library: 1.7.3
Code $Rev$. Protocol 1.7.

gphoto2 2.5.17 gcc, popt(m), exif, no cdk, no aa, no jpeg, no readline
libgphoto2 2.5.9 all camlibs, gcc, ltdl, EXIF
libgphoto2_port 0.12.0 gcc, ltdl, no USB, serial without locking
----
issue: indiserver starts normally and detects the alpha7s but the capture does not work at all returing the following messages:

Hi

Do you think this problem will get a chance to be solved?
Is there a workaround that could be applied without a code modification?

Thanks for supporting.

Unfortunately, the only solution is for libgphoto2 folks to fix it. You can voice your opinion there to make the demand better. But they have very few resources and it's summer time so I understand. If I had a Sony camera, I could try to figure out a solution, but I only have my old trusty Canon 600D.
