SharpCap Forums

I was playing with the sequence planner today, I wanted to take a series of darks at various gain settings. It took me a bit to turn off the places where sharpcap wants to connect to my mount as I wanted it off as it is under my 365 cover in a dark garage.

Once I got past that, I thought I was doing great, then I looked at the camera settings file and it said gain was at 300. I clicked over ride gain and set it.
Exiting sharpcap and opening it again shows the override gain check boxes unchecked. I checked again, saved and reloaded, unchecked.

Something is broken there.

Hello and welcome

Could you check in the SharpCap Settings, under the tab General, if the option Automatically restore last used camera settings when opening a camera is checked?

Hi,

I just checked and I think there is a bug if you tick the 'override gain' box, but never change the gain number from the default value shown to the right of the check box. In that case, it doesn't seem to apply the gain and doesn't save the 'override' being checked. If you change the value (even change it back again) it seems to work OK and save correctly. I will investigate and try to fix.

thanks for the report,

Robin
