Hi all,

I am new here and new with kstars/ekos/indi. I have some success with connecting an old Meade ETX105EC and a ZWO CCD. I am now trying my EOS M6 and that fails to capture images through INDI. My older EOS 450D worked first time, but that is a large mirror shake for the small ETX.

I believe that the issues might by in libgphoto2 with bulb mode. The is a lot of intended communication going on between INDI and the M^. Only capture fails. I have set my camera to dail: M, shutter time to BULB and focus to manual focus.

Now my question is:
Is there a way to avoid using BULB mode in INDI? As capture with gphoto2 works if I do not select bulb=1.
Maybe my attempts not to use bulb have failed due to other settings?

I already have submitted an issue at libgphoto2: github.com/gphoto/libgphoto2/issues/493

I have made detailed loggings from kstar/indi of failure scenario's. I will attach more soon.
