After connecting my mount in SharpCap, it seems that mount control has been handed over to iOptron Commander. As a result, I can no longer use the nudge controls within SharpCap to move the mount.
Is this the expected behavior, or is there a setting or workaround that allows SharpCap to retain the nudge controls while using iOptron Commander?
Thanks,
Scott

Re: SharpCap Can't Nudge Mount After Connecting Through iOptron Commander
Hi Scott,
I currently use an iOptron CEM70 as my main mount and have iOptron Commander 9.20 installed. When I connect to the mount in SharpCap, the communication goes via iOptron commander (SharpCap => Commander => Mount). Once connected, I can use the nudge buttons in both SharpCap (the left/right/up/down buttons) and the iOptron 'Mount Panel' to move the mount around manually. (I'm using an up-to-date version of SharpCap 4.1).
I guess your setup must be different in some critical way - different mount model, different iOptron commander version, different SharpCap version, etc... If we can start to work out what is different we may be able to begin to understand the problem...
cheers,
Robin
