Hello knro,
My problem continues on my D5100,after updating everything to the latest version.However,max can successfully control his D5100,I mean,with only several seconds of delay to get the image.In my case,it would.take about 4minutes.Still,everything is all right if i use an early version,the one before the FOV bug fix.
Since it definetely affect the plate solve function,I would appreciate any help/guess from you guys.
Thanks in advance.

Are you getting this from running Ekos or manually running INDI server?

The picture I posted a month ago was taken when I was running the indi server manually.Now after the update,I have only tested my camera in EKOS.

Have you tried testing this on a regular PC/Laptop with latest Ekos? Can you try using DigiKam from Tinyastro and try capturing an image from the program, does it take as long?

I have 2 MK908 and they all showed the same problem.By digiKam,do you mean a software called CCD?If so,then I have tested it.It took only several seconds to read out a frame.

Under image settings in INDI control panel, is the image sent as compressed or RAW? Can you please check?

Can you try raw to see if it makes a difference? It's usually faster in RAW.

Hello knro,
I have found something very strange in the control panel.
The image resolution of my camera is 4928*3264,while the image from the ekos shows a resolution of 4848*3280.The default resolution in imgsettings after I connect my camera is not 4928*3264,but 2464*1632 instead.I changed the resolution into 4928*3264,but the problem remains as it used to.
Will that be the cause of my problem?

Hello Knro,
Recently,I've switched to a more powerful laptop.I downloaded the latest Virtual Machine with Ekos and did a test again.Surprisingly,my camera worked so well in the VM that it only took seconds to download an image.However,I still have no luck on Max's Tinyastro.Have you updated libghoto on the new VM after INDI v0.9.9 was first released?Many thanks.

I updated libindi and friends, not sure if libgphoto was updated in the upgrade process as well.
