I just tested the GOTO of Regulus here and get this in my log Debug 10:17:17.454603 #1 Sequencer : Info : 'Converting RA=10:08:22.3,Dec=+11:58:00 (J2000) position to RA=10:09:40.4,Dec=+11:50:53 (JNOW)' while running step Move the mount to (RA,Dec) RA=10:08:22.3,Dec=+11:58:01 (RA=10:08:22.3,Dec=+11:...

Is there a way to check if Sharpcap uses the correct time or position or catalog or whatever? In the log there's a line for that : Calculating Alt/Az for catalog based on lat=47.8929162, long=-1.5064371, UTC=2024-05-05T16:08:19.8565754Z My UTC time was correct since France is UTC +2 due to daylight...

Hi, As I was away from home the last few day I couldn't experiment much with real hardware, and I'm sorry for the delay between my replies.

Hi, What I suspect is that the value that the ASCOM driver is returning to SharpCap from the MaxADU property is wrong. SharpCap expects this to be the maximum pixel value that will be in the pixel data. By the look of the driver it is returning 4096 from the MaxADU, but perhaps it is scaling the ima...

Hi everyone, I've recently discovered that my camera, a Lumix GX80, had an LumixCameraAscomDriver . The only way to connect and control Lumix cameras is over Wi-Fi, which the driver implements. The driver allows to set the speed, iso and format of the camera transfers the image (Raw or JPG) on the P...
