@warkolm finally getting around to completing my allsky cam. Just a quick question: I'm getting a bunch of timeout errors with the https://github.com/AllskyTeam/allsky codebase. Apparently it's quite common for ASI120s. Did you have any issues and if so, what was the fix?

@warkolm doesn't seem to work in ASIcap either

@mightyspaceman I don't recall having issues when I was testing it, and my first iteration worked ok

sorry I can't help mate 😔

@warkolm looked into it a bit more, it seems that the camera doesn't do well with modern USB standards, but a firmware update should fix. Still waiting for ZWO to send me an image to update.

@warkolm ZWO wants to know roughly how old the camera is

@mightyspaceman prob 4 years I'd guess

@warkolm Just tested it on an older PC with a USB2.0 port. Works.

@warkolm I feel very stupid now

@mightyspaceman don't sweat it mate, long as it works!

@mightyspaceman how are you getting along with this build?

@warkolm trying to work out how to get the camera working on the pi...the camera is 2.0, the pi has 2.0 ports, but...it somehow detects it as 3.0 even when in those ports?

so far I've tried the allsky software that is just called 'allsky' and indi-allsky but they both don't work. I'm going to give the global meteor network OS a try probably today.

If none of that works, I have a backup plan that I just realised I could do, involving a very old laptop and a lot of messing with box placement...

@mightyspaceman argh, it doesn't help but I didn't have e issues with the rpi3 I had it off

even my m1 mac could open it

@warkolm it would be funny if I just chained random adapters and it worked. A possibility...
