Anyone having trouble transferring images to phone? On my OnePlus3 DSLRController seems not able to access storage. It shows 'Not currently available' under Local Image Storage Location. I'm running sultanxda's CM13 ROM. Never had any problem with OP1.

Also it saddens me that the chainfire has seemingly abandoned the development. Maybe he's too busy or too tired. But I really wish that he'd let someone else continue the development like he did with SuperSU. Without support, this app is dying slowly, one user at a time.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] russellsnr:
Hi, anyone no if DSLRController application can be used on a Windows computer and if yes via a wireless connection?

Thank You.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Actually, one of the reasons of letting go of SuperSU is to be able to seriously get back to this app...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nicholaelaw:
Then I'm even sadder now because I mistook your intentions. Thought you were too busy to work on this app...

Now that SuperSU has been handed over, is there any plans for this app?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Yes. I just hope I have any users left when I finally get around to them :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nicholaelaw:
Oh don't you worry! The app is still kicking on my OP1. Surely I'm not the only one still using it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] russellsnr:
Nope!! I still use it now and then for focus stacking but as I asked above can it be used or will there be a software available in the near future to allow it to be used wireless on a Windows computer as Helicon Remote can be?

Willing to pay for that option.

Thanks

Russ
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Near future? I sincerely doubt that.

Unless you use DSLR Controller inside something like BlueStack ? Have not tried that myself, though. Or is that how you're using Helicon ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] russellsnr:
Hi, No Helicon Remote has software for PC. I use it on an Android tablet as I do DSLRController however QDSLRDashboard also has the app available for Windows PC.

So it can be done and via the MR 3040. to PC. Thanks. Russ
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Well, seeing how far QDSLRDashboard has come over the years, makes me wonder if there is any sense in still competing with it with DSLR Controller.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] russellsnr:
Hi, Tried BlueStack both wifi and wired but DSLRConroller didn't see the camera.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] p4f:
qDD is buggy and practically abandoned. If you do not want to compete with them, at least make DSLR Controller open-source and free so we can keep up the good work you have done.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nicholaelaw:
This may seem silly but why not use Canon software if you are controlling through PC? EOS utility has full control of the camera, I've used it myself.

Don't know about wireless capabilities though.

Note 4, 6.0.1 USB not working over USB, Gallery blocking.

Hello Chainfire.

I had great luck with your application this spring. But now the default gallery application launches and I can not get into DSLR Controller. I am running 6.0.1 on Note 4, Canon 7D. Also tried both cables that worked before.

Any suggestions. I tried installing a couple other gallery apps but the default keeps launching.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] p4f:
Probably (if not certainly) because you configured your phone to open DSLR Gallery as the default application to be launched when the camera is connected to your phone.

Go to Android Settings -> Apps -> Reset default apps.

---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ----------

EOS Utility doesn't offers full control of the camera. It enables you to do only basic things.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] russellsnr:
Need the Focus Stacking Option from the software and EOS doesn't have it. Use DSLRController on my pad but thinking on a large computer monitor even sharper images. Russ
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
FYI the liveview image sent down from the camera is usually less sharp than the actual screen.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] lioux:
Any plans to support Canon 760D (T6s) and/or 80D? Both through Wi-Fi?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Some users have reported that there are issues with the 80D, but I'm not sure what those issues are supposed to be (not all reports are equally helpful).

Currently working on M3, 5DSR, 5DmkIV and NFC support. This might fix the issues with the 80D as well, but as long as I don't know what said issues are, it's hard to even look at.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jerrwang:
Hello Chainfire,

Thank you for the awesome app. I love the focus peaking, and the drag box to focus.

Can you enlighten me on the reason my camera's autofocus is fighting me when I attempt to do my own focus via the arrow buttons on the bottom of the screen in R-MF mode? I tab and hold those bottom arrow buttons, the camera listens while I press it, then when I let go, the camera focuses back to that original boxed position. I'm trying to set up an A-B Focus pull, but in-camera's autofocus just won't quit... The cameras I've attempted on are 7Dm2 and t5i. Thank you!

Jerry
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Disconnect from DSLR Controller, and put your camera in liveview mode (probably the DISP button if you have it, or the START/STOP button). Then go into MENU, and see if you can find a setting called "Continuous Auto-Focus" (or similar). I think both these cameras have this setting. Disabling that might help.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pspilot:
Not so here. Recording from the EOS Utility works like a charm. Of course the movie is still recorded on the CF, but LV on the PC works on, I guess with about 10-15 fps. I used to use that even remotely. Had the camera connected to a Dell XPS16 in the garden, while controlling the whole thing from the office on the PC via remote desk - filming feeding birds. I feel it takes some power on the PC side (the XPS tends to switch on the fan, which needs some load), so maybe that's your trouble? Anyway, 'remote filming' works generally with the 5DII.

Sidenote: my trouble to download your app was no matter of the compatiblity or missing APIs BTW. Obviously it's just an issue with the new market app from v3.x on. There's just no "Buy" (rather "5,99") button, gone, vanished, dissolved :). Checked it with other fellows, same trouble. Since I had the issue also with other, even free apps, I went back to the old market (v2.x) and voilá, button's back. All of a sudden I can buy your app too, no more missing API :D. Now my host cable is gone (friends :rolleyes:) ... I watch it from here for the moment.

I am using a rooted wifi Xoom and 5d MKII with the latest version and everything works fine. I am not using any roms (just stock rooted). Make sure you are on the latest version of the 5D MKII firmware also (2.09). Also make sure camera batteries are fully charged, I had issues with my setup when the camera battery was low.

I pulled out the batteries from my grip (Of my 5D) and left them out for a few minutes and then restarted everything......... Not sure if that's what fixed my issues but since then, everything seems to be working correctly....... Give removing the batteries a shot.......

Original Canon 5D anyone?

Has anyone had success with the original Canon 5D?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MartynCollier:
It hung on my Asus Transformer, Android 3.2

I have seen other people who said this worked on their Asus Transformer I don't know if it was the fact that I have Android 3.2 that caused the issue. The Google limit of 15 minutes to get a refund does not give you much time to try things. I tried it 3 times and each time it hung I sent the generated report to the develper so hopefully a later version my work I'd certainly try it again as I'd like to use it if it did work and as it says it is still just a beta at the moment.

Good luck

Martyn
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Aymara:
3.2 is buggy like hell on the TF ... I refused to install it and hope Asus brings an update fast. So I wouldn't be astonished, if 3.2 causes problems with this app too ... there were several reports about other apps having problems with 3.2, as you might have read in the TF forums.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 5i1v3rStorm:
WHOW - what a nice app! I just got registered because of it :)

I just read about it ind the german computer magazine c't.

Now - before I order the USB cable and get the app, I've got one question.

Can I use the app to take one picture every 30 seconds or so to create a fast-motion movie?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Aymara:
As far as I remember, the interval exposure feature is on the to do list for a later version.

Until then you can do time laps with Magic Lantern, if your cam is supported.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] emergeoriginal:
This helped a lot. Thanks! I had the live view mode to pictures and video. Changing it to just pictures solved it.

Thanks!!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] emergeoriginal:
darkshift pointed out my problem. Thanks for an excellent app!!! I look forward to your updates!

Thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MartynCollier:
From my use of the transformer on 3.2 I would say "buggy like hell" is an overstatement, I haven't had significant extra problems that I have identified since installing it. I am not saying it is faultless, I have certainly seen some other people have had some issues with it, maybe I have been lucky, but more people report problems rather than say they have not had problems. I know I nearly cancelled my Transformer order due to reports of issues on a forum but I have had very few problems and all of those have been minor and I love the flexibility my transformer gives me. If a later version of the DSLR controller works I it woul add an extra use when doing research away from home without needing to take a full laptop with me.

All the best,

Martyn
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Aymara:
Well, maybe, but it brought more problems than it solved. So just lets hope, Asus fixes it soon.

Me too ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cyberspaceguy:
anybody test it on Samsung Galaxy S (not II) with android 2.3.4? thanks

5D results

Chainfire,

These are my results on my Canon 5D (original mark1, not MkII).

I am using my OTG cable on my 3G Xoom with Honeycomb 3.2 which allows me to transfer images from my 5D (which does have PTP).

When I connect the camera your app runs, a small window shows it's version and your copyright info. That never goes away. If I press any button in your app eventualy I get a force close. If my camera is still connected to my Xoom that small copyright window still shows over the homescreen. Once I disconect my camera the window goes away.

So right now, your app does not work on the 5D. I am not expecting live view as the 5D does not have it, but like DSLR Remote Pro from Breeze Systems, it would be good to be able to take pictures, adjust exposure, iso, etc. with it, and eventually use your scripting.

Really looking forward to this when it's done! Great work so far!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Dishe:
That's strange, because I've used the EOS Utility to record and use my laptop as a field monitor when shooting video (as has at least one other member of this thread).

This, in my opinion, would be the killer feature. I'm a moderator for the DSLR section of a film making forum, and I can tell you there are hundreds of threads of users asking how to use their tablets as a field monitor for their film making.

The current solution is usually to buy some very expensive kind of hdmi connector that will broadcast a stream over wifi that your tablet can view in near-real time, but this is less than ideal (both because of the cost of the hardware as well as the need for a wireless network).

Since many tablets now offer USB host ports, I was actually wondering if an EOS utility app was available for Android, and that's how I stumbled on this wonderful project of yours.

I have to admit Chainfire, I'm a fan of yours from years back (we're talking old windows mobile video drivers, etc). You've clearly been very busy!

Anyway, my point is, don't dismiss the ability to record video as an afterthought feature. I can practically guarantee more sales of this app if that capability were there!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pspilot:
Yep, that was me :). No problems with PC & camera.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] marcbkk:
Does anyone know yet if this app will work with the new Canon 5D Mark IV?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Works pretty well with USB. Wi-Fi not so much (working on that right now).
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jerrwang:
Found it! The menu item is "Movie Servo AF". Thank you!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RoadToNever:
My android device display is calibrated pretty close to sRGB/Rec709, but in video mode the camera uses a BT.601 matrix. Since I manily use DSLRController to set exposure and WB in video mode this raises the concern of monitoring errors.

Maybe [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] has already considered the issue and color conversions are already done internally. If not I will gladly carry out some testing.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
There are no color conversions or corrections done at all inside DSLR Controller.

Color correction is a tricky thing, with zero OS support at this time. In the end it all comes down to applying some color matrices, but finding the correct color matrix to apply is not really my expertise (in other words, I have no idea what I should be doing)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RoadToNever:
My investigation points to the 600D assuming a BT.601 display device. This is discussed in greater depth at Magic Lantern forum: http://magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?action=post;topic=17936.0

5D Mark IV compatibility?

Hi Chainfire:

I'm testing the application with my 5D Mark IV. Everything appears to work correctly as with my Mark III, but when I hit the shutter release button to take a shot the screen freezes, the "capturing" messages appears and the application becomes unresponsive. On other occasions, a timer appears, and the application appears to never recover. The frame is indeed captured, but I'm unable to use the application again until I've unplugged the USB and restarted it. Am I perhaps doing something wrong, or is the application not working properly with the Mark IV?

thank you!

-EE
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
It's an issue with the app, they made some changes to the protocol. I hope to release an update this week; I think I have most of the basic changes figured out, but I still have to do a full functionality test, that might turn up some more issues.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] e-dOuble:
Thank you, I'm looking forward to it. It's a fantastic and extremely useful application. Your work is greatly appreciated.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] elhennig:
Hi Chainfire, as you are back working on this app, I would like to bring my question from June back to attention. Do you see any chance to implement such a feature?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
There's no sync functionality out of the box, but if you start DSLR Controller, go to image review (Play button, bottom-left), then to settings (cogwheel), there's an option to transfer images to local storage, with a button to transfer all. That could work for your purposes.

On another note, the latest Android version (7, not sure about 6) actually has a built in function for this.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Garfield_101:
Hi Chainfire,

Glad to hear tha you are working on an update.

Could you please add the option for focussing with only one fingertip on the screen?

If you wouldn´t change the feeling make it as an option which has to be activated?

I would be really impressed if I see that feauture in an upcoming Version.

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
I don't understand. I can focus with one fingertip just fine?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Garfield_101:
I tested it and you are right I'm not clear enough with my first question.

I mean to focus to that point where I tipped my finger at the screen (change the focus area to that point).

Instead of this you have to hold down your finger a moment and then could move the focus point around.

It would also be cool for focussing in magnification mode to focus directly on the area where I tipped my finger at.

I hope it is now clear enough what I mean?

Thanks in advance
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
This is definitely not going to be in this update. It's hard enough getting the 5DmkIV to work reliably.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ems4567:

5D MK4

Hi Chainfire.

Really pleased you are about to work on the app again.

I have been using it for years with my Eos 5d MKII and WFT WiFi grip. Despite crashing regularly, it has been absolutely invaluable!

I too have just bought the 5d MKIV, and found the same problems over WiFi as another poster. I downloaded Canon's own app (Canon camera connect), and whilst it works, it is hopelessly under developed and thought out. No way to auto bracket, and no histograms for a start.

Looking forward to getting back to DSLR controller with my new camera.

regards,

Michael.

If you need a beta tester, please contact me?

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nurps:
What I miss most in Canons own app is that there is no way the get to the RAW files on the phone. Also the Bulb Timer..or more specific that there isn't any is stupid..they really want you to press your finger on the screen the whole time...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Interestingly enough, I think you are one of the very few WFT users.

The update is almost ready. I had aimed for a release last week but I ran into some more unforeseen snags. I still hope to release the update within days, though.

Would DSLR controller allow me to use the phones internet while connected to a camera via WIFI?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
This depends on the phone. On most it isn't an issue.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nurps:
It's a Xperia Z2, but I think it's normal Android behavior to expect the internet connection from the connected WIFI device and because a camera can't do that, the phone is disconnected from the web the whole time the camera is paired via WIFI.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
That depends on your Android version. What you describe used to be the case, but it isn't on newer versions. I'm not sure which Android version exactly this was changed, though.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:

Any updates on whether we're able to use an Eye-Fi connection instead of a USB OTG? Or any other wireless options? (Canon 5D iii).

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bluvom3t:
so cool, I cant wait to try it
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
You'll never be able to use Eye-Fi for this, that's just not how your camera works. If you need to make your 5D3 wirless, get a WFT box (disturbingly expensive - https://www.amazon.com/Canon-Wireless-Transmitter-WFT-E7A-Version/dp/B00NI3CGO4 ) or mod a TL-MR3040 to run DSLR Controller's firmware ( http://dslrcontroller.com/guide-wifi_mr3040.php )
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nurps:
Btw what is the problem if the AF isn't on the shutter release button? Do I really have to change that every time?

Also it seems to work with the 5DM4 anyway..
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Test the following:

- Remove AF from the shutter button

- Does auto-focus still work by tapping the screen in DSLR Controller ?

- Manually de-focus your lens, make sure you're *not* auto-focussed in DSLR Controller, and press the shutter button in DSLR Controller. Does it first focus before taking a picture (rather than giving you an unfocused capture) ?

If the answer to those two questions is yes, then you can probably safely ignore the warning.

On several cameras, the remote control protocol seems to be wired through the controls (terrible function design). So if you customize your controls, it is possible to lose some remote control functionalities.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Yogie:
Hi,

there was a time when the firmware of the router had the same release version as used with qDSLR Dashboard. Now that DSLR Controller 1 is out, will the firmware once be updated to match the most recent used firmware? So that both apps could use the router?

Cheers
