Re: Cannot capture video with Nikkon D5000/D5100 on Rasbian system

Greetings,

Going further, I have also tested this scenario with gphoto2 v 2.5.17. The
problem is, now there is no "movie" property and it appears to have been
replaced with "moviesound". When I repeat the same steps I do not get any
errors but the shutter of the camera does not open at all.
