File path storage during Live View

#1

Post by rsauerbrun »

Hello,

I am using v3.3 with the ASCOM-DSLR driver and my Canon EOS 70D. Great progress on the beta ... the new features are really great and I love being able to use SharpCap with my DSLR. I do, however, have a question.

I have the file path for captures set up to store my captured images to a specific folder. However, when the camera is doing Live View and taking a series of images, they are not stored in my defined location. Instead, they are going to the following location:

C:\Users\<user_name>\Pictures\ASCOM_DSLR

Where is this path set? And may I change it?

Thanks,

Richard

Hi,

this is the ASCOM driver saving the images as it hands them on to SharpCap - there's a setting in the ASCOM driver Setip window to turn this off I think. Once you've turned that off the files should only be saved in the SharpCap save location.
