Live View During Sequence Generator Pro Cooling

#1

Post by RMSQueenMary »

When I use Sequence Generator Pro to cool my camera, it does not allow live view. Is it possible to allow live view while using Sequence Generator Pro cooling?

Hi,

no, not really - only one application can control a camera at a time, so if SGP is talking to the camera to manage cooling then you will either find that SharpCap will refuse to open the camera (because it is already in use), or it might try to open it (if the camera manufacturer never thought about preventing this sort of thing) and then usually both applications glitch horribly as they send conflicting commands.

cheers,

Robin
