Need help with D7500 Live view

Hello Marcus,

Thank you for sharing your open-source code. Since I wasn't certain which email address is currently active, I've sent this message to all the addresses I found.

I'm seeking assistance with using gphoto2 to stream a live view from a Nikon D7500 to a Raspberry Pi. My goal is to facilitate this stream through a WebSocket server. Previously, I had a functioning setup using digicamcontrol, but I later discovered that using a Raspberry Pi would be more suitable for this project.

I'm interested in employing a method similar to the one used in digicamcontrol, rather than resorting to movie capture stdout. From my understanding, based on the Maid3d1 file, it's necessary to change the LiveViewStatus to 1 to enable live viewing.

However, I've encountered a challenge: the Live View Status setting is returning "Readonly: 1". Despite attempting to set the control mode to 0 first, the issue persists.

Here are the details of the setting I'm struggling with:

/main/other/d1a2
Label: Live View Status
Readonly: 1
Type: MENU
Current: 0
Choice: 0 0
Choice: 1 1

Could you possibly offer some guidance or point me in the right direction to resolve this issue?


Met vriendelijke groet, Kind regards,


Glenn van der Werff
