OACapture will not control certain cameras on RPI version

[Kodo65]

Hi Guys!

I'm sorry for "hijacking" this thread but I seem to have a similar issue with my setup:

• RPi 4, 8GB RAM
• USB 3.1 Cable
• Astroberry with KStars 3.5.9 and Indilib 1.9
• Atik Horizon II with indi_atik_ccd v2.9 driver

EKOS is able to find my Atik camera and "ordinary" exposures and control work fine. The capture module of EKOS does not, however, allow me to use the "Live Video" functionality though so I thought "Ah, I have oaCapture to the rescue". Fired it up but my camera is not recognized. When issuing an "lsusb" I can see and anonymous device:

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0781:5584 SanDisk Corp.
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 20e7:dfc3  
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2109:3431 VIA Labs, Inc. Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

...which I'm certain is my Atik camera as it disappears when I disconnect it and re-issue the "lsusb" command.

Could this be a similar issue as the one you were struggling with earlier? Did you find a solution to this? Again, sorry for hijacking...

Cheers

 

***** EDIT *****

I decided to amend the 99-atik.rules file, add the following line, reload the rules and disconnect/reconnect the ccd:

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="dfc3", MODE="0666"

...but it didn't help unfortunately.
