No Live View on Raspberry Pi 4

[jowe]

I'm having the same problem too. On my Windows 10 laptop (or even desktop) it works like a charme, on Raspberry there is no live view.
My camera is a (rather old) D300s which I use for astrophotography. I have always used a laptop but want to switch to a Raspberry Pi 4 8GB. The Pi stays at the telescope and I am warm inside with my laptop;-)
I hope there will be a solution soon.

Here is a debug build: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vVA5xi ... sp=sharing
Just replace the qDslrDashboard executable with the one from the archive.
On each start a new qdd_<date_time>.log file will be saved to your Documents folder.
Please send the log file to the support email.

Any one has had any luck with this?
I'm attempting to run it no a Rasp Pi4b headless using VNC, but I get no liveview nor I can review the photos taken.
I've tried different Pis, a 3B and a 4. I've followed several suggestions on this forum, like installing different libs, and copying the QT drive files. So I'm guessing this is a problem with the VNC.
I've tried running the script with ./qDslrDashboard.sh VNC but I get an error too.

Hello,

Same issue on my side, without using VNC.
RPi4 + Buster + qDslrDashboard + google drive Qt files

Did you manage to find a fix?

Thank you!
Regards,

Hello Zoltan, I have got the same issues as the above mentioned users .
No preview image is shown. No Live view

In the X terminal there is always this message "QML Image: Cannot open: qrc:/images/...." I guess there's something wrong with the RP's QML settings.
Is it something that can be solved? Or should I abandon my plan to run QdlsrDashboard remotely by VNC. This the only option out there to do Holy Grail time lapsing without being physically present at your camera

I did try this but as far I know also didn't get it working.
If I have a bit time will try once more.

I managed to build a version for Raspberry Pi 4 bookworm where you can directly connect with vnc to qDslrDashboard.
If you are interested to try out please contact me with the support email.
