QHY minicam5s-c only displays mono

When I connect my QHY minicam5s-c color camera to SharpCap, I only get MONO8 and MONO16 in the Colour Space menu. Is color supported for this camera?

Hi,
I suspect this is a bug in the QHY SDK, since the only way the code can show just those colour options is if the camera is reporting itself as mono
I will pass this bug on to them.
cheers,
Robin

Please can you just confirm which version of SharpCap you are using? The latest QHY SDK version is in SharpCap 3.0 beta (build 3.0.3830 and later). Please check with this version (or the full version of 3.0 which is due later today) in case they have fixed this bug already.
thanks,
Robin

I checked Version 3.0.3830.0 (BETA) and had the same problem.

I have a fix for this from QHY and will get it into the next build of 3.0 that goes out - probably over the weekend sometime.
cheers,
Robin

Now fixed in build 3.0.3867 (well, I hope it is - I can't test this one myself, but new QHY SDK is included!)
