Do you use digiKam 0.10.0 (KDE4) or 0.9.5 (KDE3) ? Gilles Caulier ops. digiKam 0.10.0 SVN Revision: 897999 OK. as you have Canon camera in PTP mode, which libgphoto2 version you use ? Gilles Caulier gphoto2-config --version says libgphoto2 2.4.1.2 I can try compiling the latest libgphoto2 if you want and re-try the speps above gphoto2-config --version now says libgphoto2 2.4.3 Import -> Camera (Autodetected) -> still says "USB Imaging Interface" Camera GUI still takes ~30 seconds to generate thumbs of few images Upload does not work Deleting files is problematic. Some are deletet immediately, some are deleted but give errors, some are not deleted at all! (can provide gdb backtrace if necessary). toggle the lock status does not work the PTP mode has occasionaly delete problems. In Normal mode they might not be there. The gphoto startup time currently very much depends on how many images you have on there. (In reply to comment #6) > the PTP mode has occasionaly delete problems.

In normal mode it behaves as i wrote in the description above (Revision: 898605) Gilles, this so-called USB / PC mode is still not USB mass storage, is a special gphoto2 driver? Salvatore, > errors on inverting the downloaded status of a pict what do you mean by "inverting"? That it gets assigned the check mark sign of successful download? Which errors? > deleting of file gives errors, but works. Which errors? > In digikam (Import -> Camera (Auto Add)) the camera is called "USB Vendor > Specific..." Adding manually have the correct name. Can you give me the output of "solid-hardware list details" while the camera is connected? We retrieve the camera name from Solid hardware info. The Canon EOS series does not support mass storage. The two modes are: "normal" mode, in this you can remote control the EOS 350D (gphoto2 driver "canon"), and "PTP" mode (gphoto2 driver "ptp2"). Both use different access methods to the filesystem of the camera. Marcel,

It can be. there is a gphoto2 wrapper aroud USB Mass Storage camera. But i don't recommend to use it. Use digiKam USB Mass Storage interface.
Salvatore,
Please go to Device/Information dialog from menu of Camera Interface window and look which camera driver you use...

(c) 2003-2007 by Marcus Meissner ." whe in USB mode: "Canon PowerShot series driver by Wolfgang G. Reissnegger[...]" Are those informations correct? Le me know if you need more! Another thing (typo?) is that the Camera Interface's window title shows "&USB vendor Specific Interface"! SVN commit 900342 by mwiesweg: Add special handling for Canon cameras for finding out the best label in the Import menu. I had put a message on the MLs, and so far received feedback only for Canons. As I dont have a Canon camera I cannot test this. CCBUG: 178011 M +25 -1 digikamapp.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=900342 (In reply to comment #14) > SVN commit 900342 by mwiesweg: > > Add special handling for Canon cameras for finding out the best label in the > Import menu. > I had put a message on the MLs, and so far received feedback only for Canons. > As I dont have a Canon camera I cannot test this. > Not working for my EOS 350D. Import -> Cameras (Auto-detected) is still showing "USB Vendor specific interface" or "USB Imaging Interface" respectively if you are using USB mode or PTP mode. digiKam revision is 900430 If you need something helpful to find out with this problem le me know SVN commit 900724 by mwiesweg: - fix stupid variable-scope-bug - add 'USB Vendor Specific Interface' as special case - add Fuji company name as special case, thank Mikolaj CCBUG: 178011 M +7 -3 digikamapp.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=900724 (In reply to comment #16) > SVN commit 900724 by mwiesweg: > > - fix stupid variable-scope-bug > - add 'USB Vendor Specific Interface' as special case > - add Fuji company name as special case, thank Mikolaj That worked! My camera is now correctly identified by digikam in both USB and PTP mode, Marcel Wiesweg is my hero of the day! But still: USB thumbs on camera gui are fast PTP thumbs come after ~30 secnods Should i file another bug or it is gphoto2 stuff? I'setting this as fixed meanwhile Excelent. Thanks for the report. And another file closed (:=))) Gilles Caulier Unfortunately, I think these are pure gphoto2 issues. In either mode digikam uses libgphoto2 (but libgphoto2 uses a different internal driver), so from the digikam side the same code is used. |
