Astrophotography module (astro.mo)

@xaint

Tried again, still get the ad link, but I downloaded the module.

On my 5D3 I get an error "No info structure found(addr 0x0).



   

You must try:
the name of module all in lowercase
report it in Makefile.modules.default

Code: [Select]

hg add astro.c then  :

Code: [Select]

hg commit -m "your message info" After this you can try to compile the module

I finally got this working. Seems that my other computer had some type of protection on it not allowing the download. I’ve tested it on the last 2 builds for the 7D and plan to do the latest tonight. All I can say is thank u so much! I think it’s great!

@xaint
any chance to have an updated (working with actual ML builds) version of this module? 

Thanks

Actually I see the problem a bit in a slightly different direction: updating the main builds to the new backend, i.e. merging the lua_fix branch, but I need some help with testing.

Then, this module (and all others) should work in both main builds and experimental ones, i.e. you should be able to freely swap modules around.

Still need to sit down and take a closer look at this module; sorry for the delay.

Very usefull module for 6d. 6d sensor had really low noise level.
Is it possible to include it to release pack?

Is it possible to transfer some  data from canon to external device via serial protocol?

It works on my 6Da and ML nightly 2016Dec19.6D116

just copied from astro.rar the astro.mo to the sd card


[edit] tested the newest nightly build 2017Sep30.6D116, it loads astro modul, seems to be working, still no field test performed...

Hi,yes it works with 6D 1.1.6 with the last nightly build ,but the LV gain must be on 0 EV...

Man I am so glad I decided to jump on the forums this morning. I am just about to head off camping and will be hiking up to a nice secluded area with 360 degree views for some astrophotography. I also just did a few modifications to my telescope EQ2 mount with motor drive so I can mount my DSLR.

I have installed the module on my 6D and it appears to have loaded correct so I will give it a bit of a go the next few nights (clear skies permitted) and report back with any successes/issues.

I would like to try this module on my M1, however I cannot download the source. Does anyone know where the source may be downloaded?

No trouble here downloading from the location linked in first posting.

I didn't noticed this module, seems interesting but there is only the code for the module, what is different in the 550D version? I suppose icons should be in ML code

There is a goog guy able to re-compile the module for Danne "crop_rec_4k_mlv_snd_isogain_1x3_presets_2019Apr02.700D115"?

Thanks

I'm a goog guy. Check out my downloads page.

Didn't have a chance to play around with it very much but l like the feature that turns the menus red. Doesn't work that great on the EOSM because the screen keeps refreshing. Turn on the module and navigate to the ML/Focus menu to see the new options.


(Wait 30 minutes for your eyes to get used to the dark.  )

What I did was copy the source to a new branch -- branched off of lua_fix so it should compile for most cameras. Then I added the module to Danne's latest compiled for the 700D. Haven't played around with that much either. The module should work on other branches and maybe other cameras. IDK -- give it a try and have fun with it.

Would have been nice to discover this sooner. I recently went to Death Valley to see the Milky Way. This is what it looked like from Dante's View:



That isn't the sunset on the horizon, it is the lights from Los Angeles. The lights from Las Vegas are even brighter there.

  Yes! You are a good guy! And all people involved in ML project are good guy!

Thanks a lot DFort.
I've just downloaded and installed, it seems to works without any problem.

I will play around next weekend (if not cloudy )

Your picture is fantastic 

I'm trying to reduce all hardware to minimum and this module could be useful (I hope)
