i am planning a different approach. Almost all cameras are USB today and can be easily autodetected. So: - Drop all autodetectable cameras from the Listview and just keep the non-USB ones. (Also we cannot easily parse Vendor/Product pairs currently, since libgphoto2 just returns 1 string.) > Almost all cameras are USB today and can be easily autodetected. Even a better idea :) > So: > - Drop all autodetectable cameras from the Listview and just keep > the non-USB ones. In that case I like a button to hide/unhide the normally autodetectable cameras too. This for the situations when something went wrong with the autodetection. > (Also we cannot easily parse Vendor/Product pairs currently, since > libgphoto2 just returns 1 string.) Maybe the KDE project can do a feature request at the gphoto project for this? :) It has some basic support for this, using ":" as delimiter. I once tried to get vendor/product splitting into libgphoto2, but this API change was not integrated :/ As of v18.07.90, there's still only a single (ungrouped) list when adding a camera. Adding a search field is tracked in Bug 217900. |
