Thanks! That appears to be working fine.
At any rate, I'm working on 1.4.2 and in this release I'll include the first release of SM OS wide update without needing to reflash the SD card again. Hopefully this would make keeping the system up to date easier than flashing the SD card for each release.

Yes, unless some property does not exist in Ekos and you need to set it directly yourself.

The QHYSDK indicates whether a camera supports video streaming or not, so if QHY8L is supposed to support streaming but is not, it's probably best to ask QHY directly to look into it. Maybe they don't support it in their SDK now.

INDI Control Panel presents the driver properties as they are exactly.
Ekos controls are frontend to the INDI properties to make some common operations easier to control.

yes, it's required and can be installed with sudo apt-get install gsc
No need to download the files manually, unless you are on a non-Ubuntu system.

<code>indiserver indi_asi_ccd indi_asi_wheel indi_dmfc_focus indi_ieq_telescope</code>
Today I wanted to check if the computer is powerfull enough to also run kstars/ekos on it, and wanted to make use of ekos starting indiserver by itself. For that I had to select a mount (CEM60). This created a new configuration in ~/.indi, named iOptron CEM60_config.xml. The other one, created when running the manual indiserver command, was called iEQ_config.xml. And of course, after that change, PHD2 didn't find the mount anymore, as it was looking for the iEQ device
So I checked the running indi programs, but that didn't give a hint how the name had been passed to the indi_ieq_telescope program. I'd really like to use the same name for both methods so I can easily switch without having to change the configuration of PHD2. I tried 'indiserver --help' but that doesn't mention driver options...
How would I have to start indiserver to use the new device configuration file?
If you start INDI Server in FIFO mode, you can start drivers with specific names (see indilib.org/develop/developer-manual/92-indi-server.html ). Ekos always uses FIFO mode so that it can dynamically start/stop drivers and renames the default name (e.g. iEQ) to a more friendly label (e.g. "iOptron CEM60").
If you don't want to use Ekos and have INDI Web Manager installed and running, you can make an web API call and it would a profile with all the "correct" labels always.

Sorry about that! It was added to another category. I update the link now so it is public:
