Nope unfortunately that did not work, made sure the concatenation in the file itself was correct as well.

android.hardware.usb.host.xml was not in that system file permissions

The only thing present was android.hardware.usb.accessory.xml

This model is still running Android 4.0 still waiting for an update to 4.1 it seems.

I did notice that for mount points there are only sd and ehdd mount points available. Well wait that doesnt make sense since the mouse and keyboard work

/mnt/sdcard/ehdd

/mnt/sdcard/ehdd2

/mnt/ehdd

/mnt/sd-ext

Oh yes and its usb host controller .44

Also got "root hub present, usb host mode is active"

granted like you said android level might not be working.

but i mean this is like a mini computer right? Couldn't you manually mount and assign the usb via terminal commands in the command line because it has the address as well of the usb connection?

Oh wait i just checked the android.hardware.usb.accessory.xml looks like its slightly different the terminal command did not put it in quite right. Let me fix it ill get back to you.

Has anyone tried this app with stock HTC ONE X 4.1.1?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Rebelj12a:
You can always try the free app he mentioned to see if it works at all. Then decide to make the purchase after. I purchased it simply because I want to see development continue.

Audio Monitoring

Any idea where the current status of this user's cable creation endeavor might be found? To be honest, if audio monitoring were possible while still using my tablet or phone as video monitor, that would be just about the greatest thing ever. I'm a film student, and trying to build a video rig around my T2i, and keeping focus on a little 3" screen just doesn't work very well. Audio however, is very important too, and with Magic Lantern, it eliminates the need for a costly external mixer. (mostly) Though at the moment I'm having to choose between nice big video monitor or audio monitor, which I'd obviously prefer to have both of. :P

Great application though, keep it up!

Abandoned

I purchased this, and has not been an update since Sept. Now if it was a free app I would not be asking the question, but I am wondering if or when there will be a future release a 1.0 version in the works and if there is a time line when this will be release. I know for what I paid for this and how it works is great, but many of the scripting is not working. I went to website not too much info, or any news regarding if its still being worked on or not. I am just curious an update on the site would be helpful to people like myself. But it is a great App, just lacking in the scripting it freezes sometimes on my Nexus 7.

Ok just found it, but I have to touch Shoot mode Icon(Av/Tv/M ext.) to get it to come up which blanks the screen?

Really need a manual or some kind of info about program and some vids.

Yes I know its in Beta(I did pay for it though ;) )

Thanks for any help anyone can offer. Will try to get some pics on to show what I am talking about. Screen looks nothing like screen shots and you tube vids I have seen,

Doesn't work with Odys Genio

Hello,

I've tried everything to get DSLR Controller working. Even

mount -o rw,remount /system /system
echo "<permissions><feature name=\"android.hardware.usb.host\"/></permissions>" > /system/etc/permissions/android.hardware.usb.host.xml
reboot

. Nothing worked. I've installed USB Host Diagnostics. The problem seems to me the "Android API" section. Device detected is there No and even "claims support" no.

Hope you can help me. Remote release works btw.

Thanks/Suggestion

Hi thanks for the great app. Everything working well with my 550D and Galaxy S3.

Here's a suggestion.

how about a replace or add audio function? would be good to use a USB hub and have the camera and a USB microphone connected. I wonder if bluetooth mics could be used too? Would be amazing for filming interviews.

Also would be great to connect an external controller for the follow focus. Or a motorised slider for time-lapse shots!

Thanks again, most exciting app for me since SkyMap!

Audio Levels, Metering and Live Manipulation while recording

I absolutely love this app. But I primarily use magic lantern. This application would fully render magic lantern useless for me if you implemented the use of live manipulation of audio levels.

Last night I was on stage and I used this rig to record a show for Swollen Members and it was crazy. I loved it. For the down low shots I had the ability to view my footage from my cellphone which was located on top and when my shots were eye level I could just use the T3i LCD screen.

Sick, absolutely the best. I love it. Excellent app. Can't stress this enough.

However, magic lantern is free and gives me live visuals of audio levels, it even tells me the dB level in numbers with a bar. And If I go into the canon firmware, it will give me live feedback of the levels and I can scale it back accordingly. Great for if its a one shot deal, but not if you're doing something on the fly like a concert (which most videographers will do at one point).

If you could have the Left Right Channels visually represented with bars and dB values in numbers, with peak warnings AND have the ability to scale back the gain WHILE RECORDING, this would kill every other application for DSLR videographers out there right now.

This is what my rig looks like:

This is what Canons Firmware looks like:

And this is what Magic Lanterns firmware looks like: View attachment 1865687

As you can see, on the fly manipulation with a slider would work great here.

Please consider this, this would justify the cost of paying 8 bucks for the app versus free Magic Lantern.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
The audio thing isn't technically possible - the camera doesn't accept audio sent this way, you need to use a normal mic plugged into the camera.

I have no idea. What's the output of USB Host Diagnostics now ?

Works fine for me on my Nexus 10

DSLR Controller isn't meant to compete with Magic Lantern, though sometimes overlapping, they also have very different use cases.

I have that same menu on the 5Dm3 (with more options, actually), and the app actually displays those levels on-screen for my 5Dm3 when in video recording mode. It doesn't display a number but it does display those bars (with green dot for 12, red dot for 0) so you know what level the sound is at. It doesn't do any live adjustment (as of yet).

However, as I think I understand from your post, this sound level isn't displayed on the 600D ? See attached screenshot for how it looks on my 5Dm3. Your capture of your setup wasn't detailed enough to let me see it on your phone.

If these audio levels are not displayed, can you hook your 600D up to EOS Utility, go into liveview shooting (in EOS Utility), and see if the audio levels are displayed in there ? It's possible the information isn't send to the USB device on the 600D, or the format is different from the 5Dm3. Obviously it's not going to be much use if I implement the adjustment, and you can't see the sound levels in the first place ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] GalapagosProduction:
I'm aware audio couldn't be recorded to camera this way. How about when the record to phone function is enabled?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Scorp84:
I could get the app working. Maybe this could help other users to.

I've had to copy 2 files inside system/etc/permissions dir. I got the files in an other Android board. I've done this via ES File Explorer with root access. I've attached the two files. Maybe it helps some of you. Don't forget so set the permission rights for these 2 files after copying.

Now I can only say: really a great app and a superb addition when taking videos.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Interesting, the commands I suggested should have created one of those two files, the other should not be necessary.

Can you test removing the accessory one, rebooting, and seeing of DSLR Controller still works ?

If it does not, this would be very good to know !
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Scorp84:
I created a file following your instructions with es file explorer because I could not launch the command in the terminal all. There were some "bad argument" warnings. Maybe I made an error with the XML tags. I will try to delete the other file.

Mulriple Deletes

Just a thought not sure if it has been addressed but I purchased it yesterday and in playing around and taking multiple shots, when it cam time to delete photos it was very slow as it had to transfer each image then do a delete. Are there any plans to add multiple deletes maybe a check mark beside each thumb nail then delete marked photos. Other than that I can'r wait for a clear night to do some astral photography.

Thanks for the great Ap :)

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] supermaz:
I second this. It would be really cool to sync the time. Especially when you do a GPS track while shooting it is really important that the times are synchronized. Please add this feature. It looks that it isn't too hard to do, at least EOS remote and gphoto can do it.

Video Recording Timer

Hi - just bought and installed on Toshiba Thrive - Canon 5dII - very impressed with app - but the one thing I'd really like to see is the video recording timer displayed onscreen - I am using the app to control the camera on a jib and keeping tabs on time is pretty much essential - is it something that can be added in an update at some point please?

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] archstantun:
I have a T3i and a Galaxy S2. And no audio levels displayed. If possible for the T3i, do you think you could have live manipulation of audio levels while recording and obviously the ability to have it displayed on screen?

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
This is implemented in the next update (cross fingers for a release this week - it's almost done)

It's possible, yes. I've actually implemented this on a custom solution that's based on DSLR Controller some time ago. On newer models there can be an issue with timezone/dst (i.e., those have to be set the same to the Android device), but apart from that, yes it can be done. It's on my to-do list for the next update, let's hope I don't forget to put it in there.

Please see my reply to your post on the previous page, and test if these audio levels are visible in EOS Utility.

I did't find any posts in the Custom Roms for HTC One where OTG and other USB Problems are discussed.

But i hope the DSLR Controller will run with HTC One.

Also happy to see soon a new Build. :)

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Interesting. Not sure what's going on here. Kernel detected the device, but Android did not. Might be a firmware issue. This appears to be the oldest firmware tested on the HTC One with USB Host Diagnostics, and it's the *only* report in which it doesn't work so far ...

Don't really see anything that I can do to help you though, other than waiting for a new firmware for your device.

so i have to wait for a new firmware, or shout i try a custom rom?

DSLR Controller and Kyocera Prepaid Android Phone

Hi There,

I've been really excited about DSLR Controller ever since I first found out about it. I am not an Android user, but I really wanted to check it out so I decided to buy an inexpensive Android phone that I thought might be compatible. I purchased a Kyocera Event prepaid phone (Amazon ASIN number B00B9K6ESC) with the following features:

Product Features

Android? 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich)

3.5? Touchscreen Display

3.2 MP Camera with LED Flash and Video

1GHz Processor

3G & Wi-Fi Capable

Dimensions

Size (LWH): 2.41 inches, 0.46 inches, 4.53 inches

Weight: 4.16 ounces

Product Features

Network Compatibility: CDMA

Unfortunately I was unable to get the DSLR Controller to work with my Canon T2i (AKA 550). I am trying to determine why, and any help from this community would be greatly appreciated. Since DSLR Controller is pretty much the only application that I envision myself using this phone for, I'd be more than happy to try out any solution and/or suggestion that could help me with this.

Best regards,

Bojan

transfer software

I purchased the software with the intention of using it between my Sony Experia Miro and my Canon 650D but it just refuses to recognise the camera.

I had previously tried a camera controlling program connecting my camera to pc by usb cable and it worked fine.

I have now given up on the Sony, and want to connect to my recently purchased Samsung Tab which I see is also compatible.

How can I get the software I paid for and installed on the Sony, onto my Samsung - do I have to repay a second time and download or is there an alternative way

thanks

Feature Request

Hi Chainfire, I love using your app for focus stacking, it makes it so simple for studio work. It would be great if there was a way to store and quickly recall preset stacking sequences for using in the field. I shoot a lot of macros of live subjects that would often be long gone by the time I set up the shot for stacking the current way. I also do most of my shots handheld which makes the current technique impractical. Being able to set a sequence with x number of shots and a chosen step size would be very helpful. Not sure if this is possible but since I do most of my macro shots handheld being able to initiate the sequence by pressing the camera shutter would make things much easier. That way I could keep two hands on my heavy macro rig. Thanks for developing such a useful app!

Let the bug reporting begin !
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pspilot:
It's nice to see progress, thanks. Overall the app seems to act snappier on my Galaxy 7.7 & Note. The WiFi-Passthrough is a dream with Note and Tab. Finally I know, what my Note will do, when it becomes retired as my phone :).

As you wish, Sir :D: 1) the shutter count on my 5DIII at least is wrong. I know for sure, I have over 20K and DSLR Controller reads exactly 14417, always. This number seems to be a constant, since it doesn't change, even after taking a few pics.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
The number is reported by the camera - there's no calculation done. The camera says the shutter count is 14417, no less, no more. DSLR Controller just displays it ;)

As for it being constant, it only updates when you turn your camera off and on again, for some reason.

Re: Wi-Fi Passthrough, read my guide here, there may be more performance to be had: http://dslrcontroller.com/guide-wifi.php
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] msatter:
I am pleased with the update

Thank you very much Chainfire for the new version of DSLR Controler. The increase in speed when viewing pictures is really great and on many other items I saw also improvements. I could test a bit and now my phone has to recharge so I have to test more later.

A mayor problem is that the Wi-Fi Passthrough is not working any more since the update. With version 0.96.0 it was working on my Kruidvat 7" tablet with ISC and my S9100 with JB 4.12.

As camera I am using a 5D MKIII (firmware 1.13) and when reading the retrieved information I noticed that the serial number is still in hexadecimal notation and not matching the actual serial number.

The shuttercount is a great feature that surely will get more people interested DSLRcontroller

update: I have tested WiFi - Passthrough again with 0.97 and it did not work. I installed on both devices version 0.96 again and it works like a charm.

manual fosusing (R-MF) don't work

Hi,

Chainfire, thanks you for your work.

I am using a Canon 650D, 18-135mm STM lens, Nexus 7 (android 4.2.2) and the last version of DSLRController (0.97) and the manual focusing (R-MF) aparently don't work. I cannot see any focus changes when i push the arrows buttons.

Can you help me ?

Thanks you.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tornadolf:
I agree re: shutter counter. I know for a fact that I took around 17000 shots with my 7D, and I am not the first owner. The counter says 7200, so something weird is going on.

PS. I have not had a chance to test other new features, but I'll play with it next week when 5D3 (yippee!) shows up.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Serial: it appears this is a hash of some kind. I've not find any way to decode it to match anything resembling the number on the bottom of the camera. This is however what the camera reports as it's serial number.

Shuttercounter: same story. The camera thinks this is the shutter count - nothing I can do about that really. If you guys say this number doesn't match, then that simply means the camera is unreliable regarding this information, and it really shouldn't be used to make 2nd hand purchasing decisions (as some seem to use it for)

WFPT: debugging time, then! Are you sure it's a problem of the two devices seeing eachother? Or maybe the connection itself goes wrong? If you watch the device you put in passthrough mode, does it say "Connected !" at any point? Guess we'll be mailing about this one.

I'm not sure if this is related to lens or not, I've never tested with an STM. Please note that I imagine the steps may be really tiny on an STM, try pressing the arrow 100 times (one of my non-STM lenses has 200 steps !). If it really doesn't work, try "EOS Utility" on your computer, it also has these controls in liveview mode, see if they do work if you use them there.

Congrats on the 5D3, it's an epic machine!

Can i use this software on my phone and using Magic Latern on my camera? Does it works? Or there are conflicts?

So for the 550D/T2i the fps are around 13fps +/-. What's the output, 1080p? Is it possible to reduce the ouput to something like 720p and increase fps?

I am thinking in buying HTC One, so i hope the problem gets fixed...

dslr controller and Magic Lantern

Hi i have Magic Lantern installed on my 600D and dslr controller on my Nexus 7 and dslr controller works fine, as far as i am aware the only issue you may have is if you have re assigned your auto focus from the half press shutter button to another button on the camera but i may be wrong but for me the two work brilliantly together i must admit i use ML for exposure bracketing and dslr controller more as a field monitor but i have no issues using the two together
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] funcle:
Almost working (kind of)

Hello,

I reported quite some time ago that after I had updated my Xoom from the stock ROM to one of the Cyanogen mods that DSLR Controller stopped working with my 600D.

I have tried your latest update and it still doesn't work (no camera detected) :crying:

However, I also tried your Remote Release program. The interesting thing is that this program does detect my camera and it does work successfully :D

So, is there a chance that whatever you use in Remote Release could also be used in DSLR to make it work?

If you need me to do any testing/investigation, just let me know.

Regards,

Chris
