I’ve updated my mini pc to the latest Kstars beta and I’ve noticed that if I select the Touptek driver for my Omegon cameras, the app crashes, but if I select the Omegon Pro works fine.

Hello Jasem,
I recently bought the Omegon GUIDE2000C (Color Version) and was unable to get it to work with the default toupcam driver.
However, browsing the sources, I noticed the Product ID (0x1367) missing in the files.
Maybe they have a new version released?
So I assumed this model would not work for now.

Desperate I tried integrating the PID which lead to a lot of crashing.
But I than noticed Omegon has a new SDK released, which is different from the toupcam SDK.
I now integrated this Omegon SDK like the other subtypes of cams (mallincam etc).
With these changes I can use both of my Omegon cameras (veTEC -> Omegon Pro) and the Guide CAM simultanously.

After some testing I provide the changes via Pull Request.

If you want to check it out: github.com/kneo/indi-3rdparty/tree/New_Omegon_SDK_integration

Maybe this solves some issues with the Mono version as well? Unfortunately I can not test this.

Good catch!

Something is going on for sure, cause as I can see they have uploaded a new version for ASCOM too.

Thank you, I didn't know there was a separate SDK until now. Please test it further and submit a PR. I will test it locally to verify everything.

I informed Touptek I couldn't connect to OmgenPro 571C camera and they're looking into it.

Hello @Corrado
I'm currently not able to check this problem. But the function called - and not found - is in the Indi namespace, it seems to be some version mixup.
Either libindi is to old, and the driver was linked against a newer version of indi, or the other way around.

It should be fixable with an update.
I recommend opening a ticket at github libindi@Githubhttps://github.com/indilib/indi and a little patience.

regards,
kneo

Hi everyone
I'm trying to decide whether to purchase a vetec571 but can't get a definitive answer as to whether this works or not.

I noticed that libomegonpro was updated yesterday.

Could anyone confirm that the Omegon vetec cameras now work (if they ever didn't!) or not?

TIA and clear skies,
Steve

I have this exact model here and it works great with the latest drivers.

hello @alacant,
I have the cam for about a year, using Indi only, I have nothing to complain.
Sometimes I get driver hang-ups, but this occurs with all of my devices.
Coming from a DSLR its a huge step up regarding image quality.

Thanks everyone
It's on order.

I'm also coming from DSLRs and I've read good reviews about the cheaper copìes of the asi2600. I think the Omegon has the same sensor, but with a hefty €600 difference.
Here's hoping...!

Cheers and clear skies
