(no subject)

Hello,

First of all, THANKS for the great tool!
I'm sending this here rather then on github because I wouldn't consider it
an issue per se. I can however do that too if need be.

I had posted my experience with gphoto in in the comment section of a video
from Novaspirit Tech and was asked to add a report?!

this EOS 350D is listed under http://gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/support.php
as you are probably aware.
And it was working in normal mode however not the video part, it only takes
continues photos ever second. I do think that is a hardware limitation
though, right?
I did a bit of copy pasta with the commands so I might have made a mistake
there.

> "gphoto2 --stdout --capture-movie | ffmpeg -i - -vcodec rawvideo -pix_
> fmt yuv420p -threads 0 -f v4l2 /dev/video0"

This resulted in the mentioned continues photo shooting.

I did notice that

> gphoto2 --auto-detect

shows

> Model                          Port
>
> ----------------------------------------------------------
> Canon Digital Rebel XT (normal mode) usb:003,004

That's not correct right?

> gphoto2 --summary
> Detected a 'Canon:EOS 350D (normal mode)'.

e.g.
