Re: Exposure & Gain

Hi Kirk, the TrackBar (slider) controls that I use are happy with floating point values - that of course just means that someone else has solved the problem for me and I don't have to worry about it... If I had to deal with integer only track bars I'd start off by setting the limits so for instance...

Re: Exposure & Gain

Hi Kirk, AvailableValues is for controls that take multiple choice options (like 'On'/'Off', or 'Avi', 'Fits', 'Png' etc). It doesn't apply to controls that have numeric values. cheers, Robin Thanks Robin. A big ask now. I am trying to emulate the Exposure TrackBar from SharpCap on to my script's G...

Re: Automated LRGB Sequence Capture

I have now made a few changes to make the script more usable, still no GUI though.

I've been through the wringer attempting to create a GUI in Python & decided that it's just not worth the effort.

Here is my current code, tested & working:

Re: Automated LRGB Sequence Capture

OK, I've been muddling through and so far have got a script that works, albeit there is some fine tuning to do. At the moment the variables such as TimeLimit & number of sequences are hard coded. I am going to make the script more user friendly with a form to allow input of these variables. I mi...

I stumbled across this script: miniCAM5F_LRGB_Capture.py.txt but I am getting errors with: from SharpCap.UI import NotificationMessage from SharpCap.UI import Notificati...
