Driver should have 16bit bitdebth as default #45649
Hallo,
a small wish from me. Tonight I made NGC6939 with a fresh installed INDILib on RaspberryPi4. Unfortunately the ASI Driver had 8bit as default bitdebth. I realized it after the session.

I agree that 16 bit should be the default as I have also fallen into this trap a few times.

As a workaround I have edited the “my camera”_config.xml.default file in the .indi directory so it defaults to 16 bit. But this only works if you can install a new version of INDI without having to completely reinstall the image, as is the case with Stellarmate.

Ok, v1.5 of the driver now defaults to 16bit. Please test (remove all config files and check if the camera defaults to 16bit).
