Hi,

i would like to be able to take some pictures through a DSLR command on 
a raspberrry pi, and at the same time be able to use the live view of my 
canon eos 600D but im having troubles.

I plugged the usb cable from my eos to the RPI, and programmed my 
buttons with gphoto2, so i can take pictures, no problem.

I plugged the hdmi output on a simple screen, so i can see the liveview 
output.

I can see the liveview, if i use the button to enable it on the camera, 
but as soon as i take a picture, it goes back to menu mode.

If i try to enable the liveview from the RPI through the gphoto --shell 
-> set-config veiwfinder=1 i can hear the camera doing something, but 
the screen remains black, until the picture is taken, or until i set 
config viewfinder=0, and then it goes back to menu mode.

Is there a way to go back to liveview between 2 pictures automatically ?

Thanks in advance for your help
