Can't find second Altair camera

[szymon]

Hi there,

I've been happily using SharpCap for a while with my Altair Hypercam 183M and a QHY5L-iic (and the program is superb, especially the Polar Alignment process, which has revolutionised my imaging!). I've now sold the QHY camera and upgraded to a newer camera for planetary -- an Altair GPCam2 290C. The camera shows up fine in Windows device manager:

and works fine using AltairCapture:

However SharpCap can't seem to find it at all -- it still finds my Hypercam 183M no problem, but there is no sign of the GPCam2:

Any thoughts on how I can debug this?

Many thanks,

Upgrade to version 6097. The updated Altair SDK in this version fixes the problem you are seeing.

Good. I didn't fix it Robin did, I am just the messenger. Good detail with the problem report - thanks for that.
