I have the same version of tp link and and firmware. Looks like you are having similar isssues as me, please find my previous posts in last 3-4 pages to confirm if you are having exact same issues.

I have already contacted tp-link support but no help so far, answers are received were: usb port was designed for 3g/4g modem and mr3040 does not support tethering which doesn't really make a lot sense to me.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gvb279:
Your issues aside, I am not surprised that you are not getting any help from TP-Link support, as they are correct in what they say.

The firmware on the dslrcontroller website is CUSTOM, and quite clearly says so. It is this customisation that is allowing the usb port to be used with your camera.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 90c4:
You're correct, of course. Been using this app for a long time but didn't realize that it automatically focused when shooting,
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fotorex:
With DSLR Controller you can do automated! HDR Bracketing sequences or you can use it as an intervalometer for timelapse photography. These are two examples which can't be done with EOS Remote.

It Works....

After a few days of playing I have DSLR Controller working great on a 1st generation Kindle Fire rooted with CyanogenMod 11 using a 2.2 TP-Link with the firmware downloaded from the DSLR Controller website. Also works great on my Asus TF300t. I like the size of the KF and with old eyes getting the picture you want through the viewfinder or liveview display is not what it used to be...So this is wonderful

Hi Doc,

It's highly doubtful that the problem is at your end.

There are similar posts about these WiFi connection issue but no satisfactory reply.

Hope is the last thing to die....

I have a t2i with latest firmware, HTC One running 4.3. App works well but for some reason at around the minute mark disconnects and shows me the app in the Play Store. I then click open from the play store and after a minute disconnects again and again at the minute mark. I have checked setting in the camera and phone but don't see anything that would cause this disconnect at a minute. Any suggestions?

Also where did the share function go when you hit the settings button when viewing a picture?

Plus, I had it so I can use the camera as normal by pushing the top left button M, Av etc. The picture I took would then show up on my phone, but now for some reason I see it load, and no picture. What setting to get this back? It turns off the live mode on the camera by hitting the top left button and you can hold the camera as you would normally. But after I take the picture it doesn't show up anymore on the phone without going into gallery.

Just wanted to add, when the minute is up and it crashes showing the dslr controller app in the play store, in the notification bar at the top I have a triangle with a exclamation point in it and it says, phone is in USB host mode , unable to charge phone.

I wonder if this pops up and makes the app disconnect?

Anyway all is working fine for the minute I get to use it. Is there video support in the 99.4 update? I have no red button like in some videos I have watched.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ile85:
I agree that mr3040 is not originally designed to serve as a tethering tool but I still think that my question is completely legitimate. The thing is that I suspect that my issue is hardware related, not sofrware. I think I will have to restore original firmware and make some additional tests...

I don't believe that I disputed the legitimacy of any question you asked. My post relates to TP-Link support, or in your case, the lack of it.

Hello. I want to use my Canon 5d mk3 from my laptop wirelessly (the range should be about 300m). Don't ask me why:) Is it possible?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 90c4:
I find that I have to turn off network switching on my phone in order to connect to the router, since there's no internet on the DSLRController network. Is that correct that I should have to do this?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] djm3ph:
Awesome

I got this last night and i tested it with the Canon 60D and Nexus 5. Works fantastic.

I also tested it with the Canon EOS M. Not so friendly.

On the EOS M, it allows to see the images on the car but unable to take photos. I think this may be a Canon EOS M restriction. I wish there was a way around this. That would be awesome.

Hey Guys,

I have the DSLR Controller app. It is Amazing. I will firstly point out what I need to achieve and then put down my thoughts, hopefully you have some input.

Desired outcome - To have about 300-500m range (Line-of-sight) for the 5D MIII to work from where I will be standing with my android tablet. The 5D will be on an Octocopter.

I have tested having my Galaxy Note 3 plugged into the 5D and used the "wifi passthrough" feature whilst controlling it from my Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 tablet. It works flawlessly. Connected to the same wifi network. I don't want to fly with my Galaxy Note 3 in the air and I need to overcome wifi-range limitations.

Option 1 - Use the TP-Link TL-MR3040 (a per dslrcontroller.com website)

My question regarding this, let's say I have a router at the Ground Station that will have a 1W Booster on it (if that isn't enough, a more directional antenna), can I just get the RP-Link to hook up to the Wireless Router's Network. May tablet would also be on this network. I will then get the benefit of larger range as the 1W booster is bi-directional. (available on eBay by searching "1W 2.4ghz booster)

Option 2 - Use an Android Stick (a per dslrcontroller.com website)

If I did this, the Android Stick is acting as a Wifi access point. The same issue arises, can I get a router to some how connect to this access point (or visa-versa).

Also, is there an ability to have the stick just join a wifi network like a normal android device would?

Option 3 - Use a cheap android mobile phone.

This would allow me to hook up to the wifi network made from the Router on the Ground Station. It would run either the TV Stick version of DSLR Controller or the normal version with "Wifi passthrough" enabled.

I am open to any other ideas or feedback.

Thanks heaps guys, I really appreciate any guidance.

Cheers,

Ash

Openwrt is able to act in client mode. Is it possible for the mr3040 dslrcontroller config to connect to an android phone that has 3g tethering switched in? I'd love to use it in combination with another dslr that has an eye-fi card. It wiukd enable me to acces both camera image data by my editor on the spot.

hi i do not know if this will help you out but last week i edited my TP_link MR3040 Routers /etc/config/network file and added my studio-networks wired/wifi router as a gateway for the mr3040 basically and linking the two on the same network/subnet, so when at the office i could access the internet from the device running DSLRController App.and also have the images that were transfered from the camera to phone/tablet relayed to other phones or tablets/tv's on the network as they were taken. (which i have managed to get working)

so 1) TPLink wifi SSID 'DSLRController running at 192.168.0.100

2) Wired and wifi Network SSID Studio-Network running at 192.168.0.1

3) Home Network on SSID ' Home-Network' running at 192.168.0.200

now a side effect of this is whilst the camera is plugged into the MR3040 on SSID 'DSLRController' the DSLRController App can still find the camera even when the phone or tablet is connected to the Studio-Network or Home-Network this has also acted as a booster to the distance between the Camera and the Phone/tablet I have only tested this at about 120 meters which is the maximum distance of the property i am on but i can't see the distance being a problem as long as the networking side of things is setup correctly

Hope this helps

Crashing issue

I have had limited success with DLSR Controller, I used it on my 450d and worked perfectly fine, I then use it on my 700d ans after a few seconds it crashes, or goes black, or freezes, does anyone know what it is that could be causing it, I have tried resetting all the C.Functions, I cant work out why it does work for a little bit then just goes black, have tried it with live view also on on the cam and also off. Any ideas anyone??

Im just using the OTG and a usb
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ile85:
Ok, I have finally managed to solve this problem. The problem was not in cables nor software, the issue was in usb port which had a bad contacts with any cable that was plugged in the router. Shield of usb port was too wide and because of that there was a space in between usb cable and the port and because of that the contact was bad which caused unstable connection when making even smalles movements with the router or cable. Using screwdriver I've changed the shape of the metal shield of the port a little bit so that it holds the cable better and the contact is also good now.

Since then I haven't noticed any connection problems.

---------- Post added at 07:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:56 PM ----------

I have few suggestions on how to improve the app:

10x Zoom mode: It would be nice to have some better solution for moving the viewport area when in 10x zoom. Currently, you have to press the screen, wait a moment and then move a finger. The problem here is that movements are not precise, sometimes the direction of moving the viewport is completely different than where I slide the finger.

Manual focus mode: Instead of having only the arrows, it would be good to have a focus line (min focus distance to max) with sliding enabled and that this focus line is "live" meaning that if user clicks arrow to change the focus then focus slider would also change position of the slider

simultaneously.

Auto focus mode: When focus point is set on non-contrasty and the camera can't focus then or it takes a lot of time to focus, it's impossible to stop focus process and change the focus point. It would be good to cancel the focusing in such cases.

---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------

Do you still have 450d and does it still work good on it? It's possible that cable or adapter on usb cable is not good. How does it behave when you don't move camera/tablet?

Acer Iconia A1-811 compatibility

Has anyone tried the Acer Iconia A1-811 with a 550D ? I have been getting erratic results with the camera repeatedly showing Busy and being unable to start recording. Any ideas? I fully accept I could be missing something obvious or not using the s/w correctly. I seem to recall an article saying the order of turning on, plugging in is a factor but I'm sure I tried every which way. I'll see if I can find it again...

Oddly, the Acer works with DSLR Dashboard but it isn't as nice as Controller, which really does seem to be the answer to a maiden's prayer.

BTW, I can highly recommend Meccano to make up a holder for your tablet :cool:

I know I'm in minority, but I often use my camera handheld above my head in my right hand and hold my phone in my left hand, which makes it really tricky to hit the shutter button. It would be great to have an option to flip the layout so the shutter button is on the left side.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
I have no time to dig into it at the moment, but it seems like an uncompressed 16bpp YUV format, probably @ 704x480.

So yeah that could well be it.

The cam probably doesn't have much CPU to spare during capture (probably why it isn't sent as JPG), so something as close to VRAM as possible would make sense.

It's entirely depending on the model of the lens, and by extension on the type of focus drive.

Awesome app and can you please tell me if the EVO 4g sprint will be supported with Gingerbread 2.3.3 thanks in advance
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] PsiTabulous:
Sorry - I didn't want to sound either negative or vague with my 1st post on xdadevelopers :)

What is frustrating me is that (despite a single core processor) the ORIGINAL Galaxy Tab 7" (GT-P1000) is a powerful device with a 7" screen. Having updated it to 2.3.3 and WITHOUT having to root it ... it seems? very 'close' to be able to use this new app (if flashed with 2.3.4).

I am just trying to understand how 'close' or not my 1GHz device is to being able to use this app. Do you mean there are hardware reasons that it cannot ? Is it maybe possible (even if I have to now root it too) ??

This thread seems to say that in general

:

1) A lot of the larger Honeycomb tablets have no problem (once running latest firmware) in running this app. This is GREAT for anyone who owns or is thinking of owning many of the latest 10" plus screen size offerings. ;)

2) A lot of the 'talk' is about the Galaxy S2 with 2.3.4 (a smartphone rather than a tablet). This device is seemingly somewhat different in that Samsung kept certain protocols in place that enable this app to work?

Although larger than (typically a 3" live screen on recent DSLR cameras - articulating like 60D or not) ... it is hardly going to be a 'night and day' difference like on 7" or 10" tablets.

How many other (IF ANY) smartphones / small tablets upto say 7", APART from Galaxy S2 and hacked, rooted or specialised niche models such as Nook, can this app work on ?

3) Despite there being very little actual difference between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 - the handful of 7" and older (larger screen tablets) that originally ran FROYO but now DO have OFFICIAL 2.3.3 firmwares available now ... cannot run this app.

-

Either way ... whether I can use my original Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 or something even cheaper to buy (Advent with larger screen and Dual Core too) / others ... OR have to buy a device like an Asus Transformer - this app is one of the most exciting things to come to Canon DSLR and Android users for AGES :D

I'm not even sure what you are trying to say.

If it is that you think 2.3.3 and older should be supported, that really isn't my call.

Aside from the SGS2 running a KG* 2.3.4 firmware, no pre-honeycomb device has the necessary Android parts. Period. I can't do magic, you know""

Canon Rebel XSi/450D + Motorola Xoom Wifi

I have a Canon Rebel XSi/450D with a Motorola Xoom WiFi. Obviously I'm experiencing the same issues as everyone else, but wanted to make it known there's another user of this older model.

I purchased the app because I've read through the forum and it appears that a solution will be coming at some point and I wanted to financially support the developer to make sure it happens. Even just using the Live View on the larger tablet screen makes this app worth it.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Aymara:
It's too bad, that such announcements are needed.

Regarding this case ... people being not satisfied, should think of this:

Though Chainfire is a pretty good developer, he is not a magician, he can't implement usb host mode in phones that lack this feature and he can't give my old 20D the live view it doesn't have.

And there's one important thing, we shouldn't forget, it's a one man project !! So we have to be patient, he can't develop as fast as a large Canon dev team and the topic is very complex, be it feature wise or because he wants to make his tool compatible with a large range of cameras and not only the current models.

Keep on the good work, Chainfire!

Nook HD+ via TL-MR3040

Hello! I picked up a TL-MR3040 so I can use DSLR Controller wirelessly and it works great on my Galaxy S3. The problem is my Nook HD+ tells me no wi fi devices could be found and suggests rooting my Nook. My Nook is connected to the MR3040 wireless connection just fine, but I am wondering if DSLR Controller detects my Nook is not rooted and won't even try to connect over wifi. Any ideas? Thanks!

Crazy question maybe, but do you have bluetooth enabled, or a VPN installed, or any of the sort ?

I found a bug related to this in the code a few days ago, may be the cause.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DazJW:
Hi Chainfire, is there any chance of getting a 1:1 (square format) overlay/mask added to the app to go with the other aspect ratios? It'd be handy for more precisely composing photos that are intended for display in that format.

Also, would it be possible to have an option for the shutter to be fired by pressing the physical volume buttons like a lot of the Android camera apps do?

Finally, in an older version of the app I could choose the RAW on camera JPEG on phone option but at some point this changed and now I get told my camera doesn't support changing that setting. I haven't changed camera (Canon EOS 40D), Android device (Samsung Galaxy S3 running 4.2.1) or camera/phone firmware version since it last worked so I'm at a loss as to why I can't change that option any more.

And thanks for the excellent software.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 90c4:
I was actually thinking the same thing at a shoot last night, that a volume button would be perfect for shutter as I often hold the phone one handed. I tried it and noticed that it controlled the shutter speed, which is cool too, but having the option on control shutter release would be great.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
It controls whatever button you pressed last.

This option has been requested before - I did look into it then, but the snag was it didn't work right if the screen was off. I'll have to revisit this.
