Facing issue with Canon EOS 5D Mk4

Post by ObsidianIvan »

Hi,

I've used qDslrdashboard successfully with my Canon EOS 5D Mk3 and the TP-Link TL-MR3040 router in the past, for shooting timelapses using the LRTimelapse option. I have now a 5D Mk4 and I tried it out for the first time with the same config. The router is upgraded to the latest version.
I have two issues:
  • When I hit the Capture Sample button, the camera takes not one, but an endless sequence of pictures (but only shows the first)

    When the TL-MR3040 is connected, I cannot control the camera using the camera controls; whenever I use one of the camera controls, I get a flashing "Busy" in the viewfinder
I am not using the USB cable that was with the camera (no idea where I put it) but a replacement from Amazon.

Any suggestion/idea what's happening?

Maybe continuous capture is enabled?
