Hi,

SharpCap always offers the debayer options for mono ASCOM cameras because a number of ASCOM drivers lie about whether the camera is colour or not, so offering the debayer control at least lets users work around that.

It sounds like the SX code in SharpCap is not spotting that your camera is a colour one and so is not offering the debayer options. Please could you open the camera in 'Native' mode and then share the SharpCap log (send by PM) created (Help->Show Log then copy all the text). Hopefully that will show me enough of the conversation between SharpCap and the SX driver to see where I am going wrong.

cheers,

Robin
