My dslr coltroller software worked perfect on my motorola g4 plus with android 7, now i bought a motorola g5 plus especially only for use with the dslr controller, no simcard, no other apps, clean and with the same android version. Turns out that after the 3rd time i push rec, it always freezes. tried every setting but offcourse no luck. in wifi mode it works perfect. But because i turn of my camera a lot, wifi is no option because of all the hassle to connect again every time. Is here someone ho had the same problem maybe..?

I just recently got the 1DX MKII and was disappointed at the min $600 wifi feature addon. Until I found an articial that lead me down the rabbit hole to this app. :)

Please report back here a review of your setup and so on. I am thinking of getting the hardware and start hacking away. Screw Canon and there $600 dollar accessory. LOL

The main reason I ask here is due to the website has no screen shots nor any demos that I could find so I can virtually evaluate the software before buying the app and hardware.

Is Moto E & G series support the remote release and DSLR controller app ?

Hi,

I am using Moto E2 phone and trying to connect my DSLR Canon 1200D with USB host and OTG cable.

But my phone is not getting detected.

Do you have any solution for this issue ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mad4some:
This might have been mentioned before but would like to post in case someone hasn't thought of it.......I have a 750D and a OnePlus 3 phone and ordered a cable: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tripp-Lite-...c-Male-6-ft-/232371109112?hash=item361a65bcf8

The cable has been providing fast and trouble free connection between the app and the camera. And the 6 foot length is awesome for moving all around my tripod setup!! Different ends are available so you can customize for your equipment. Cheers! ;)

No updates anymore for dslr controller also...I didn't payed for that! Please, is here someone that got a clue what I can do about this problem..?

Built-in Wi-fi???

Hi, Have you tried connecting via the Built-in Wi-fi on the camera?

What cable are you using to tether?

I found that the cheaper cables from places like Ebay are just not up to the job you need a quality cable try something like these https://www.lindy.co.uk/search/1-x-...x+5m+USB+2.0+Cable+-+Type+A+to+Mini-B,+Black+

Cheers

Russ
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] colorz3000:
thanks

Hello Russ, first of all thanks for your effort! Yes, i tried via wi-fi, works perfectly. But i'm not planning to use it via wi-fi because of some reasons, one of the reasons is the constant hassle if you turn the camera of and need to reconnect again. If tethered it is just on and go. I also have 3 cable al in different lengths (same manufacturar) tried them all, same problem. But can it be the cable if it works perfectly on a motorola G4? I think it's more of a hardware problem on mobile device side then to look for a cable problem..?

Just a suggestion QDSLRDashboard 4 Windows

Hi, Just a suggestion but if you have a windows computer go to the QDSLRDashboard site and download the FREE Windows version of that app (does near the same as this app) connect your camera as that is possible via USB cable with the Canon I use a 6D and 70D and see if you have the same connection issues on Windows.

https://dslrdashboard.info/

Russ

PS. Just a thought but you have got the wireless option turned OFF in camera as sometimes if ON!!! that can interfear with connections.

I saw I already tried qdslr dashboard, same crap, after 2 times hit the record button it freezes. also installed on my windows pc, it even didn't recognize my camera.. I'm done with this, i'm buying me some older motorola g4's and go on. damn.. Ps. my wifi is always turned off on the camera.

Ps thanks for the trying to help,

I just received mine today. Someone has upstreamed some alpha fixes to the OpenWRT code that may allow it to work. I'll try to look at it ASAP.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
It's possible there's an issue in the device's USB stack. I recently found the same issue in the Google Pixel XL (only seems to happen in combination with the 5DmkIV). I thought it was hardware related, but the G5 Plus uses a different chip, though your symptoms seem identical... The 5DmkIV works fine in combination with many other phones, so I'm not sure who is at fault here exactly (Qualcomm? Canon?)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] colorz3000:
Thanks for the answer sir! I don't know anything from that, so my only question: can i do something about it or just stick to the old G4?

Preview Zoom with a Manual Lens?

I'm trying to use DSLR Controller with a Canon T4i and an Opteka 500mm f/6.3 mirror lens.

While I realize that it obviously can't focus the manual lens or change the fixed aperture, is there a reason why I can't use 5x or 10x preview zoom? Being able to zoom in would make it much easier to focus the notoriously difficult to focus mirror lenses.

Thanks.

Update: After looking at a couple of older posts, I started looking at camera settings regarding auto-focus. Obviously this lens doesn't auto-focus. However I discovered that if while running DSLR Controller tethered to my Zen 8.0, if I activate live view on the camera and hit the magnifier on the camera's LED screen, it magnifies and showed magnified on the tablet as well. Is this a bug in DSLR Controller, or a function of this being a manual lens with no contacts?

v1.03 test version

I have just uploaded a test version of v1.03B to Google Play. You can sign up for that version by following this link:

https://play.google.com/apps/testing/eu.chainfire.dslrcontroller

It will probably be several hours after doing so before Play lets you download that beta version.

There are quite a few 5D mark IV bugs fixed. It remains a troublesome device - the most finicky camera I've worked with in years. Be sure to be running the latest v1.0.4 firmware on the camera itself, it is known to fix some major issues such as focus not working at all.

I want to state once again for users of the 5D mark IV and other cameras released in the last year or so, that if you get a lot of communication errors, you may want to clear all camera settings. It's a major hassle, but it gets rid of a lot of weird errors. Unfortunately, using the very latest camera firmware doesn't seem to fix this issue.

Please try with the v1.03B version and let me know if it helps. I hope so!

I included your color matrix under options -> liveview -> BT.601 to BT.709 conversion. I don't see that much of a difference but I'm no expert on color.

The solid circle should be fixed. It had been reported before but I was never able to reproduce the issue until now. Not sure what's going on with the focus square. This is information the camera sends, and as I don't have a 1DxII to play with I can't debug this. It doesn't happen for the cameras I test with. I'm also not sure what is going on with your auto rotate - it should only show in landscape mode.

Auto-correcting / ETTR on-the-fly would not really be usable in live video, there would be several uncorrected frames it were doing so while recording.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
A review of the focus controls is on my list, but everybody wants it a different way :/

The camera is telling DSLR Controller that it zoom is not currently possible. This is obviously a lie as you can press the button on the camera itself and it works. Unfortunately, Canon cameras lie to the app about these things all the time, especially when non-Canon lenses and flashes are connected. There's really nothing I can do about this, the app depends on the information the camera provides.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Deanimator:
Given that it works, albeit in an unexpected way, it's not a big deal. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something I was missing or a bug in the software.

Thanks for your assistance.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Deanimator:
This may turn out to be a settings issue. I was doing some macro work with a Tokina 100mm and ProMaster tubes when I discovered that I wasn't getting the zoom, when I knew I'd gotten it before.

Per an old post, I played with the AF mode ("AF Quick", I think) and got the zoom button. I suspect that it'll work on the Opteka. I'm going to try later.

I came to the T4i via a 350D, so I've never worked with the controls SPECIFIC TO the touch screen. I bought the tablet and DSLR Controller to avoid using the touch screen for studio macro, so I apparently never learned (or needed to) some of the screen specific controls.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Deanimator:
It was in fact an auto-focus setting specific to the camera touch screen in live view. I changed to [I believe] "AF Quick". It works now.

Hi

Is there any way to change the default directory for storage when usb tethered to a Galaxy Tab 6 . Default is android/chainfire/files/ etc etc , I have a 200 gig sd in the tab and want to use my own simple directory on that...SD/shootname or similar.

canon 5d mk4 test

I did the beta test on my 5d mk 4, with the setting reset..clean. Goog and bad news. First the bad, i have still the same error BUT i've got to say, i managed to record for about 6 times before

the screen froze.. before it was max 3 rec's and it froze, so there is some progress in there it seems..

The good, the high speed rec works, i am one happy man!! I forgot the count for when I did some high speed rec and had to unhook dslr controller for this, so that is a BIG yes!

Hi, downloaded and installed fine, everything seemed to be going OK until I took an image both using cable and wireless with 3040 to both Nexus 7 and Lovono tablet but as soon as the camera captured the image DSLRC crashed as before. As I was using the 3040 to connect was not able to send crash report imeddiate but after log on to net I hope has been sent. Thank You, Russ

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Updated to 1.04B2. Play Store should have it available in a few hours. It was the same crash as last time, the problematic code was there in multiple places but I only fixed it in one place. It should work now, let me know.

The problem was introduced by the color manipulation functionalities (astronomer mode, BT conversion), and only affects older Android versions.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
It's the middle of summer, and most DSLR Controller users aren't even on XDA. The developer console shows some two dozen users on the BETA.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Can you play around a bit with the crashing recordings? Maybe change some camera settings, the subject, etc? So maybe we can find some pattern where it does or doesn't work?

I've managed to focus pull hundreds of shots without issue on the 5D mk IV.

As I recall, you are only seeing this issue on the G5, not on the G4 ? Can you reconfirm that is the case?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] russellsnr:
Good so Far

Hi, New version worked as should and seems faster to load images to tablet than before with a OTG cable connection. Only do stills photography so sorry cannot comment on any video side of things and will try wireless later. The one thing if at all possible is make so you don't have to drag the focus box to a point then tap screen to focus wonder if it can be made so you tap screen at a point and the focus box jumps to there and focus automatic? Thanks for the new build. Will keep testing for my side of the stills photography. Thanks.

TP-Link MR3040 v2

Magic Lantern (Has worked with ML 1.1.3, ML 1.2.3, and stock cannon firmware, also has not worked with each as well)

Works once in a while for a few days, then one day it will completely stop working, then I'll pull my hair out and then randomly will start to work again, sometimes a few tries later, sometimes a few dozen, sometimes a few hundred. I'm completely lost and would appreciate any insight. I've reloaded firmware on the router and the camera, changed cables, bought new cables, tried difference sequencing of powering on, etc. I have a 60D that it works flawlessly on, every, single, time. Same cables, no regards to power sequence etc.

system log has a repeating sequence as follows, X increments for every try until router reboot, then starts again at 1:

usb 1-1 : new high-speed USB device number X using ehci-platform

usb 1-1 : device descriptor read/64, error -145

usb 1-1 : new high-speed USB device number X+1 using ehci-platform

Do you ever have issues connecting the same camera to your PC? (And which OS would that be?)

Have you tried to "Clear all camera settings" on the 5D3? This helps for some types of problems, though I somehow doubt it'll help for this one.

It is not completely unheard of that this is an issue with the camera. It doesn't happen often but every once in a while I get a report from someone who ends up exchanging their camera and all issues are solved. There's really no way to know for sure unless you try it, though.

I have no idea what else may be wrong. As you can see from the logs, the problem occurs before DSLR Controller even does anything.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Oriaz:
Hi guys,

This might be something glaringly obvious that I am missing, but is there a way to make the connected tablet JUST a live-view monitor. So I maintain full functionality of the camera and camera buttons, and the tablet is nothing more that a larger preview screen?

Right now, if I have the tablet plugged in, I can only use the controls on the tablet and not on the camera. I'm sure that must be an option somewhere, but I can't seem to find it.

I'm using a Canon 70D

Cheers

Review Images

You can do this by going to Options (gog wheel) image review-follow shoot, full screen. Only gives a Jpeg image but is fast and shows what you just captured. I use this in wireless mode option on a 70D

Russ
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Oriaz:
Ahh, maybe it's because I am using a wired connector then? I have seen that option, but I had no control over the camera buttons (i.e. shutter release) when the cable was connected.

I'll give it a shot, cheers!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] russellsnr:
Disconnect Wireless Option

Just an after thought but when connected via cable make sure that the wireless option is turned off in camera. Mine works with cable also.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Oriaz:
Hmm, yeah ... actually, reading Russell's response, maybe I didn't make my problem clear enough. I am after a live view picture, as opposed to the option to review a photo I have already taken.

I have the wireless option turned off all the time, so that shouldn't be causing any issues. I just tried to set up the WiFi connection though ... and it's a frustrating nightmare! I gave up!

I guess it 'could' be the cable I am using? But right now, if I have my 70D connected to the tablet via a cable (with OTG adapter), and I am running DSLR Controller .. then DSLR controller has full control of the camera. I can't use the camera shutter button to take a photo, I have to use the tablet. I kinda want it the other way around, where DSLR controller has no function other than a live view monitor, and the camera maintains full control.

Thanks for the help so far!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Turning on the screen on the camera (START/STOP button usually, sometimes DISP) will allow you to use the buttons again.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aaronkrider:
The camera connects 100% to windows 10 OS with no issues, even brings up the EOS Utility app automatically, so it's sending identifing data out when queried.

So clearing all camera settings seemed to help, it connects now occasionally with several attempts, but it's still not predictable, so maybe it didn't actually help, it just decided to start working?

I didn't know if it was a communication protocol issue with the router causing this. Since the router firmware is from your site I assumed you developed part of it.

Is there anything along those routes that could be the issue? (i.e. 5dmk3 protocol is different from 60D, etc?)

I appreciate all your hard work on this system, and it's awesome when it works! Thanks for your insights.
