As I'm not using a DSLR at the moment I just bought a new ASI585MC camera; after not being recognized initially on my main RPi 4. I cloned that RPi4 Indi/Kstars image and updated to 1.9.6. The camera is now recognized, but will not expose. After reading a thread or two here indicating some concern with an upgrade and some potential package conflicts, I wiped that image and tried again with a fresh build, and am getting the same result. Interestingly the Live View will display a stream; this works while the indi logs indicate a failure (see attached). Exposure does not work at all. The only other cameras I had to test to validate Exo was not the issue were two Svbony cams, which did work as expected. The camera will also work in Oacapture, with no issues.

It's possible (I'm honestly expecting) that the reason this camera is not working is because it is a relatively new release as I've seen no mention of ASI585MCs in the wild, but as a sanity check can this be confirmed?

Thanks!

It appears that I was able to get this working with StellarMate (64Bit) on my RPI 8GB pretty much out of the "box". I did not try 32 bit. I'll test over the next two days.

Unfortunately I was not, but the symptoms are the same after testing so the experience is consistent. :) To clarify: I'm still seeing the same behavior you are.

I do not have any issues while using the ZWO software on OSX. I'll wait it out a bit and try again as this is a new relatively new release. I would be curious if last year's ASI485 has the same issue as I've gone looking for instances of people using it under Ekos with the indi-asi driver and I don't see any.

Thanks for the replies folks; I suspect the issues you mentioned might be the cause; I'll give a nightly build a go and see what I get.

Thanks again!
