Using a Pi?

I know the Raspberry Pi runs Linux. And it has 40 GPIO. What do you think about using it to Run qDlsr along with the Motors of up to a 6 axis slider/dolly? I know you were working on using a Yun in the past. Just thought since the pie is only $35 and has all the I/O one could need it might be a good fit.
What do you think?

Don't own a RPI but actually yesterday managed to order a RPI 2 so will see.

My Pi2 Arrived today. Now to make motors move. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. I'm not a programmer just a tinkerer. I do have a 6 axis Arduino controlled slider with a OLED screen I built. For software I modded the eMotimo TB3 Black to run 3 axis's of it. Otherwise I use Dragonframe for a 6 axis.
The Pi 2 should be fast enough for hand wheels and live video.

Yes it should work, I was running qDD on Cubieboard2 that is only a dual core so on RPI2 should work better.

Hi!
I am using qDslrDashboard together with a Raspberry Pi B+ and a Raspberry Pi2 (via ddserver). Works like a charm.

Got my RPI2 today (this was the fastest package delivery I got)
Cross compiled Qt 5.4.1 and qDslrDashboard and I can start it but getting some OpenGL errors with the device control screen.
Need to investigate, could be that my cross compilation was wrong.

How did you manage to run it on the Pi? I always get
Code: Select all
g++: error: src/main.cpp: No such file or directory
g++: error: src/communicator.cpp: No such file or directory
when trying to run the command given on Github :/

I was talking about running qDslrDashboard on RPI2 (it needs a build for ARM)
You are talking about compiling/running DslrDashboardServer on RPI
To compile and run DslrDashboardServer on RPI
Code: Select all
git clone https://github.com/hubaiz/DslrDashboardServer.git
sudo apt-get install build-essential pkg-config libusb-1.0-0-dev
g++ -Wall src/main.cpp src/communicator.cpp `pkg-config --libs --cflags libusb-1.0` -lpthread -lrt -lstdc++ -o ddserver
After compilation you can run it with

I'm really thankful for your fast response! I didn't realize that there is a RPI2 out by now, sorry for that. Unfortunately I get the same error as before. I'm running latest Raspbian Image. Do you have any idea why it does not work?
Thanks in advance and especially thank you for this great app!
