"start Daily attribute"

Post by romeu » Mon Jan 09, 2017 8:03 pm

Hi,

I am trying to use this app to start a time lapse at a set time range daily, but all my attempts failed.

Is there any issue i should be aware of?

Thanks,
Romeu

I'm using 1.2.99.12
because with the more recent version we always get an error after a couple hundred photos
"Device busy. Failed to set property integer data: propertyId 1280, data 0"

We are using canon 5d's and 700d's on windows 10 32-bit, although the mini pc has a Intel atom x5-z8300 x64 cpu.

Hi again,

Does anyone know if it is possible to restart the camera conected via USB trought remote conection, after you get a "device is busy" error.
the only way i found was to unplug, restart the camera and replug,
but the cameras an pcs that i'm using are on remote locations and i only have access via remote connection.

Thanks,
Romeu

I don't find any way to reset usb connection via software, you can use a usb relay to reset hardware the usb connection, but this required some electronics skills

thanks Duka for the input,
that is indeed a bit off my skillset.

i tried http://deveject.com/ that seemed to be a path to the solution but it dosen't work well with canon dslr.
i'll try to find more.
