Thomas Madey: I had similar issues whenever trying to implement EKOS in Astroberry and it ultimately led to me moving over to mini PC/NINA. What INDI driver are you using for the Canon EOS? Try a fresh reinstall of the driver. If it doesn’t work, I would do a clean Astroberry flash to your SD. I was never able to get Astroberry’s components to work together all at the same time, unfortunately. |

EOS 90 produces CR3 raw files. Astroberry is pretty much outdated and uses a version of the libraw library which does not support CR3 files. Either you have to compile a new version of libraw for your Astroberry … or choose something different, like StelarMate (which is not free). I gave up on Astroberry for this reason. Astroberry seems to be dead. Unfortunately … |

I would highly recommend you using stellarmate instead.Save yourself alot of headaches. Absolutely agree. The fee for the software is worth it in order to get reliable and repeatable results while still using the RPi. |

The software for the astroberry is pretty dated now. I ended up running Ubuntu 24.02 on the PI 4B 4Gb I had and installing kstars and indi directly. sudo apt install indi-full kstars was most of what I needed to get working. I had to fidget around the edges to get my GPS dongle working and my QHY camera needed a new fxload file since even the most modern Ubuntu install doesn´t support usb3 correctly. You have a couple of choices for remote desktop RDC, VNC, teamviewer. It's likely you can use your favourite version of linux with little trouble. Most of the issues have been a very quick google away from fixing. Currently I guide with phd2 and indi server on the PI. I also recommend installing indi-web if you are using it remotely. Then I run kstars on my desktop inside to plan schedule and otherwise control the mount. I use the ´bleeding' edge install to get the latest features which, in the end, is why I went away from the astroberry. The general windows support of the amateur astrophotography community might want to head you the ASCOM way with a mini PC but Linux runs just fine on one of those too. |
