for some odd ass reason it doesn't work on my SGS3....the app opens it asks me for superuser permission then goes to the market page...same thing happens for the Remote Release app...no error message, no nothing....

is it because i am using a custom JB ROM?

edit... i rebooted....didn't work for the first couple of times....and the voila...it decides to work...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
In an earlier post you stated you already tried it ... ?

It's the Android Market (/ Google Play) license verification library that does this. For some reason your license cannot be verified. Are you signed in to Play with the same account you used to purchase DSLR Controller? Are you using the latest Play version? ... etc

Chainfire - great app, go on!!!

Unfortunately with an 600d and 5d MII I get the message "Could not find a compatible camera. If you have a compatible camera connected. please make sure it is turned on...."

I use a device with Android 4.0.x Ice Cream Sandwich, 1,2 GHz processor (Cortex A8 Kernel) and USB Host (tinyurl.com/d9qmvso) - no problem to acess an USB flash drive connected with the provided USB-Adapter. There are no system updates aviable and the cable from DSLR to tablet work when connectn to the PC - so any idea what to do?

Hello!

This works faboluos with my EOS 1100D and Xperia Active.

I know it's beta, but only function that I'm missing is downloading pictures from camera to my phone.

There are some apps that can convert RAW to JPEG so that would be the finishing touch!

Keep up the great work!

Just installed the new build and tried it out with my galaxy Note and Google Nexus 7 and 5DMK2. Everything works perfectly with my galaxy Note, focus stacking with HDR is great. The flash delay is just what the doctor ordered, works fabulous. The Nexus is a different story, I like the interface change but the focus stacking when started crashes. I'm not sure but I think stick mount might be interfering for some reason, but this is just a guess. Once it crashes there seems to be no way to get the app to work again. I tried rebooting and shutting all the apps I could down, the still doesn't work. When it was working with the Nexus I used HDR bracketing which worked. Happy to see these changes, great job.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Falipene:
Thanks for the update!

With old canon models (450D), AF don't work, so would be great the option to "hide focus menus".

I use manual focus with Live view old primes with adapter.

Tried "full screen mode", direct icon to "full screen" and inside full screen, the option for Zooming, (and exit), Touching screen exists full screen.

It's posible to review RAW files at full screen in gallery mode?

Device Compatibility?

I currently have a Galaxy S 4G (T-Mobile) updated, rooted and ROM'd to ICS 4.x with cm9.

My phone uses the Cortex-A8 CPU which falls under the architecture located at this wiki link: wikipedia (dot) org/wiki/ARM_Cortex-A8

When i plug my phone into my camera (camera already on) it says it cant find a compatible camera. but i use the T2i (550D). It suggests that i turn on the camera or wake it up with the shutter button.

I also tried the app on my girlfriends phone (LG Spectrum) however her phone does not support the host cable API -- so i know the cable is being recognized on my phone.

Any ideas???? Thank you for this app, now to just get it working on my device!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bellrb19:
Gantonski - Try a different cable. This was happening to me.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
It's a problem with the Nexus 7 specific layout. Will release an update to fix ASAP.

I'm not exactly sure what you want me to do re: focus ...

As for RAW files, yes you can shoot only in RAW and image review will allow you to view them, but not completely fullscreen (unless you are in follow-shot mode).

You could try rooting it, that sometimes works... What does the "USB host diagnostics" app tell you ?

I *think* the Galaxy S 4G does not have the USB host capability (and if there is a hack, it does not have the capability to provide power over USB), same as the rest of the Galaxy S line.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Also, I have been looking into video playback again, after some people told me the new Android versions support direct playback of MOV files. That is unfortunately incorrect. I'd have to build my own decoder (or base on an OSS one - still a lot of work) to do this, so it'll be a while longer ... none of the media players on Play were able to playback my videos either, so - even basing on FFmpeg or so may still be a problem.

hello Chainfire

There has been a new Samsung Note 2 with Android 4.1.1 "Jelly Bean" .

I like ask you about the DSL Controller and Andrioid 4.1.1 compatibility...

It will work still now with the Android 4.1.1, or not yet ?

If no ... do you like adapt DSL Controller to the Android 4.1.1

And how long time we like wait, of yours new extension?

Sorry for asking you... I can't read all of then here, because I don't speak really English.

Photo playback does not work anymore

I updated to v.0.95.2 yesterday and HDR did work but cannot playback my photos anymore. I see only thumbnails on the right of the screen.

I then reverted to 0.95.1 with Ti backup and playback worked again so it is an issue with the new release.

Is this a known issue ?

Feature proposal: Image overlay

Hi Chainfire

I like DSLR Controller very much and use it with my Asus 700TF tablet. For my studio work I am missing a feature though which might also be of interest to others. For image compositions it would be very helpful if one could select an arbitrary image from the device and show it as a semi-transparent overlay in the live preview in a similar way as it is done with the grids and aspect ratio frames. Having this feature I could then for example select an image shot at some location and then in the studio direct a model to fit exactly into that scene.

What do you think?

LG, Michael

For the first time today, DSLRC crashed when starting, every time until I deleted the data.

I had never launched any of the 0.95x releases though, so the data was leftover since 0.94, maybe it caused a pb? I have a backup of the data, so I can try and restore it to test, but not today, I have two days of shooting coming and I need it working, which it does!

I was wondering if this will work with Samsung's android media player. I have used it wioth my acer tablet, but I would like to find something smaller to keep in the camera bag for hdr work.

I may just wait until I get a new phone. I'm on the fence with getting a Samsung GS3 or the Samung S Relay 4g. Has anyone tried this with the relay?

I appologise if any of these questions have been asked previously. I tried to search through the thread, but 200+ is a lot of pages.

At the moment I'm using DSLR controller with a Canon 5DmkII and an Asus TF101. This works well in a studio setting but is slightly cumbersome in the field. I'm considering getting a compatible phone such as the Nexus i9250 to make a more compact setup.

Using DSLR controller as a video monitor, the framerate is not that great with the Asus Transformer, compared to the rear LCD or an HDMI monitor. Is there a lot of difference in performance between the TF101 and an i9250 or will an S3 i9300 be visible better still? Or is the framerate limited by the USB connection rather than the processor speed? If there is a better small screen device for this app than the phones I mentioned, please let me know.

Wifi - Direct

Your App is a Dream! I Love it! Great Great Job! One note though, I can't seem to get Wifi Direct to work with the app. Is there any chance that in the future that the wifi-direct api code will be in the dslr controller app's code so that the two devices find each other? Thanks.

I for example have a GS2 and GS3 and they connect in the wifi-direct screen, but when I switch back to the app, there is no connection.

Also, I have an HP Touchpad running CM9. It is so so awesome to use the app for the first time with the touchpad (since the touchpad does not support usb otg). However, the touchpad does not have a wifi-direct function built into CM9. There are apps that allow for wifi-direct file sharing, but none that just turn the function on.

So if somehow DSLR controller enabled the wifi-direct from within the app, maybe then it would work correctly and even enable devices like the Touchpad to work without the need of a Wifi network.

Let me know if you think any of this might be possible. Thank you :)

UPDATE:

Ok, so I finally got it to work with "wifi-direct" but I think the whole "wifi-direct" is a bit buggy still.

Would love to know how to "wifi-direct" to my Touchpad. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 2Skoops:
What did you have to do to get it working with your Touchpad? I have one, but I haven't gotten a chance to test it out yet.

I did have a chance to try it with my GS3 and Epic 4G. The Epic 4G doesn't support WiFi direct, but I have CM9 on it so set it up as a wifi hotspot and connected my GS3 to it. Works great! Thanks so much for this new feature!

I do have one issue with the app though which I was wondering if anyone else can confirm. When using it with a T4i, I can get the "Live" and "Quick" autofocus modes to work without problem (which correspond to "FlexiZone - Single" and "Quick Mode" on the camera display). However, there are two other modes, denoted as "?3" and ":)" in DSLR controller which do not work (corresponding to "FlexiZone - Multi" and ":) + Tracking" or "Hybrid Mode" on the camera). When I tap the screen in DSLR Controller it says "Focusing" and I see it try to acquire focus. On the screen of the T4i I can see that it successfully acquires focus, but DSLR controller still says "Focusing" and never realizes it's in focus, so I can't take the picture.

Does anyone else see this behavior? Are these focusing modes even supposed to work in the current version, or should I just stick to Live & Quick?

Other than that, everything seems to be working great. Thanks again and keep up the amazing work!

Congrats chainfire! That's way tight! I love this app! I'm rocking the sgs3 and I have a cannon rebel xs and this is the coolest combo ever!! Thank you for this!!! :D
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Re: GS2 + GS3, first you connect both devices with Wi-Fi Direct, then you start DSLR Controller on the one connected to your camera, go to Wi-Fi Passthrough Mode, then start DSLR Controller on the other device. Then they should connect.

As for your TouchPad, I'm not 100% sure, but I think if you enable Wi-Fi Direct on one device, you can still see a new ad-hoc network on the other device you can simply connect to using the normal Wi-Fi network selection screen.

The T4i introduces those new modes, I have not been able to test with them yet. I really need to borrow a T4i from someone so I can figure these ones out :)

Touchpad

I installed the app on my touchpad, and then via my local wifi network it worked perfectly with my GS2 connected to the camera. The only issue I'm trying to solve is how to get it to work without a local wifi network. Like if I'm out on location shooting, and there is no wifi network available. I guess I'll try turning my phone into a hot-spot instead of wifi-direct.

Anyway, this APP is the best App I have ever purchased on the market. Simply Amazing! It blows people away when I'm shooting on location and controlling my camera on a crane via the phone... I can't wait to show it doing the same thing wireless! So Sweet! Thank you Chainfire!

Wi-Fi Passthrough Mode

Thank you so much Chainfire for implementing the the Wi-Fi Passthrough Mode!! :highfive:

It makes an already awesome programme, unbelievable!! This feature will certainly make that even more camera and Android users are getting DSLRcontroller to use more of the possibilities that their camera's are offering.

I am sure the Wi-Fi Passthrough Mode is surpassing the abilities of web interfaces that the makers of camera's have implemented. DSLRcontroller will be a huge benchmark for them.

How to Wifi without Wifi

Hi Everyone,

First of, I just can't contain my excitement about wifi passthrough! It is so amazing! Anyway, that said, I have been looking for a solution to getting this to work with my HP touchpad while on location when there is no wifi networks available. I have a rooted GS3 with T-mobile, but if I use the GS3 as a hotspot, that will do 2 things:

1: Raise my internet usage

2: Drain my battery

So, I have a GS2 laying around, but without a functioning sim card, the tethering was not working at all. Then I found "Foxfi!"

So, download the app "Foxfi" use it to tether without actual data plan.

Now I have my touchpad controlling my camera with my GS2(screen off too, so that saves battery life) attached to my camera!

Life is Good!

Hey this App is really great,

I use it with my EOS 650D in connection to my Galaxy Tab 10.1 / SGS3 over USB Connection Cable.

This work really great .. but (Digital-)Zoom doesn´t work ->App show Button on the right side but it isn´t usable =(

Another Point would be great if you could integrate Eye-Fi cards Support !!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
Both the 650D and 1100D have some minor glitches I would love to work out, but I would need to get my hands on either device for a few days - I can't seem to find anybody near me who has either of these.

Eye-Fi card support is not coming anytime soon ... file transfer itself is coming so that won't be of any use with Eye-Fi, so that beats the use ...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] xlanhackerx:
Ohh doesn´t sound good ... hope you will find someone =) ... you could also PM me and tell me what i could done to help you !!

About Eye-Fi Card Support I tested some own stuff , protocol seems simple but you need "Server" because Card only interact to "Server" !

Support future stuff ;) .... I like this App !!!!

Hi, Chainfire

1. I am sure it has been asked before, but have you considered making a few of the buttons assignable? For example, I never ever use picture style or auto lighting optimizer, however I routinely change picture quality and do timelapses.

2. Wi-fi passthrough is awesome! It does not display correctly on Captivate, but it doesn't really bother me, since it's gonna be replaced soon anyway. Just wanted to say thanks for that.

3. You alluded to the fact that you are working on file transfer. If you make it possible to feed photos onto my hard drive as they are shot I'll just die and go to heaven.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
1. Yes, but in the current design, it's difficult to implement - not a priority. Future stuff.

2. Screenshot please :)

3. I've been working on file transfer exclusively since last update, so hopefully it will be in the next update :) Internal storage/sdcard/shared, external sdcards, USB connected drives (thumbs, harddrives, etc) should all be supported. Keep in mind your device must properly support and mount those, as well as grant normal apps write access for all that to work. And if you're streaming to a harddrive, you'll need a USB hub to connect both the drive and the camera at the same time... unless you connect the harddrive to an Android devices connected to the camera-Android device using Wi-Fi Passthrough... oh the possibilities! :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tornadolf:
so many questions

Before I get to screenshots here is another issue I ran in just now. So I'm running a timelapse with flash (430EX) mounted on a hotshoe. Flash has a timeout of 90 seconds, I make shots at 10 min. intervals. The flash goes to sleep and does not wake up before the next shot. I though adding flash recharge delay would help - no dice, it's activated after the shot. I figured out a workaround by going to HDR (aperture) and setting number of shots to one, then flash fires every time.

Also, with a tablet (A500) camera goes through battery like there's no tomorrow. What do you suggest I do? Plug tablet into a charger? Plug camera and tablet into a powered usb hub?

Re:file transfer - so it would be to attached storage, not sent over wi-fe to a remote drive?

Here are the screenshots, main window is fine, but it's locked in vertical orientation. Review window looks the way it is.

I have an Asus Padfone and a 650D, can't seem to get them to communicate.

Not sure why, as the Padfone works with other USB stuff.

You can set the custom function one on your flash to "1" so the Flash does not sleep any more.

For Chainfire, to awake a sleeping flash you need to half-press the shutter button.

Why does DSLR controller require almost 2gBs of data usage?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chainfire:
It uses data for two things: Play purchase verification and Wi-Fi Passthrough mode. The first shouldn't be more than a few kilobytes, the second only operates on your Wi-Fi network. Not sure if that measurement includes Wi-Fi, or maybe it's simply measuring data usage while DSLR Controller is in the foreground - but DSLR Controller does not use your data connection outside of purchase verification on startup.
