I'm working on it but unfortunately Sony does not help much. No documentation for developers.

Thanks hope you can find a fix for it. This is the best camera control software available. Well done.

I have a problem connecting with my Sony A7R3 & A7R IV!
Right now I use iPhone ControlmyCamera apps to try to connect A7R3&4 can't work!
I try to connect my camera as usual with Wi-Fi but the screen stops at Connection info nothing happens.
But connect to my A7R2 & A6000 is fine!
Anyone can help?
Tell me how to set up the connection of the camera?

Hey hubaiz, any updates for the A7R mk4? considering getting one but no qdslrdashboard might hold me back ;-)

Thanks!

Sorry for me starting my first post with a feature request...
I own a Sony A7 RIV. When I run the current version of qdslrdashboard, I get a live view of the camera, but can´t release / change any of the camera parameters.
I understand that PTP/IP protocol does not seem to be supported on Sony Cameras. However Sony have extended their SDK. In the meantime it is available on both Windows - as well as various Unix systems (see link below).
I was able to compile their sample app on both windows and raspbian and got it to run (connection via USB). The documentation seems pretty elaborate - as well as their APIs.
Could this be a good starting point to extend qdslrdashboard camera support ?

https://support.d-imaging.sony.co.jp/ap ... index.html
Fromt their docs:
2021-05-11Camera Remote SDK Ver. 1.04.00 has been released.
Main changes:

Added support for ILCE-1, ILCE-7RM4A and DSC-RX0M2(Ver. 3.00 or later).
Wired LAN is supported.
Linux® 64bit (x86) is available.
Added some commands for Windows®, MacOS and Linux®.
