GX80 - functional only for film mode

Hi, really fun/useful having this on a large-screen laptop. Unfortunately, the command for a single stills shot causes my (European) GX80 to freeze in an endless movie-record mode which can only be stopped by removing battery. Any hope on fixing this? best regards, n.m.

Certificate is invalid

I'm trying to install the version from https://github.com/Rambalac/GMaster/releases

Make camera profiles to contain all information about available features

Current code tries different features even if not supported. That produces to much excessive exception logging. Create class with features flags and dictionary by camera model with preset features for known cameras to prevent request that anyway fail.

LMaster start screen disappears within 10 sec :-(

I am using tabletPC (Teclast/Win10) and notebook (Win10) for GH4/GX7/GX80
WiFi connection PC/camera is okay, but if I start LMaster, it opens short a window,
but disappears within 10 sec.
What's wrong ? ? ?

Anamorphic de-squeeze

Is an Addon for Octoprint somewhat possible?

First of all, thank you. I use the GX80 as a webcam for streaming and since it doesnt have a 180° turnable screen it is handy to be able to focus on pc and adjust settings, while it is connected to pc via hdmi.

I wanted just to ask if you can create an addon for octoprint based on your work here.
This would open a huge possibility for the 3d printing community since a lot of panasonic cameras have ptp but it is read only. So most cameras cant be used for timelapses of 3d prints without connecting directly to the wifi of the camera with the raspberry pi. but since most people use the raspberry pi to monitor the print for safety it seems to be a bad trade disconnecting it from the main network just to connect to the camera. but since you can connect the panasonic to the main network and then connect with your app to the cam trough the pc on the main network without losing internet connection it would allow the raspberry to stay avaible for monitoring and also making timelapses with the panasonic cameras.

there are already some trys like the following one

Connection:

#!/bin/sh
curl -X Get -G http://192.168.54.1//cam.cgi?mode=setsetting
-d type=device_name
-d value=SM-G903F \

sleep 1

curl -X Get -G http://192.168.54.1//cam.cgi?mode=accctrl
-d type=req_acc
-d value=4D454930-0100-1000-8001-024500021C98
-d value2=SM-G903 \

sleep 1

curl -X Get -G http://192.168.54.1//cam.cgi?mode=setsetting
-d type=device_name
-d value=SM-G903F \

Photo:

#!/bin/sh
curl -X Get -G http://192.168.54.1/cam.cgi?mode=camcmd
-d value=capture \

where you can ad a script to the pi and execute it at specific timings for the camera to take a photo. But you have to be connected directly to the cams network. I tried the scripts while the pi and the cam were both at the main network but the scripts didnt work that way.

Also this doesnt provide a Preview ofcourse. So your app is far superior to that approach. Even if it is a Preview with bad quality it would make possible to see if everything works right.

Just a question if you could create such an addon. I know i ask for a lot here. This isnt meant to be disrespectful.

Greetings, Sersch

Hello, can you use your lumix device as a webcam with this program?

Keyboard Shortcuts

Hi,
I work on the support team for an accessibility product for disabled people. We sometimes get requests for software to control DLSR or video cameras via our software. The most reliable way for us to implement this is if the applications support keyboard shortcuts. Is there any possibility that this could be added in a future release.

Thanks

wake up camera

This app is a big help controlling streaming cameras. Unfortunately, they go to sleep as far as reporting to the app. They're still streaming, so I don't know what part is actually sleeping. The only way I've found to wake them up is to click the screen causing a refocus, or change an exposure setting. Could you add a wake-up button? Or a keep-awake setting?

Remake focus selection drawing to simple OnDraw drawing

Current code is using xaml for focus boxes. It's not only slower, but different bindings make code too complicated and glitchy. Rewrite it to draw focus boxes as simple Win2D draw.

GPS support

I'm trying to add GPS support to your app, what I've noticed is that if you use iPhone app with GH5 it stores location info in JPEGs and videos. Which leads me to believe there should be support to set location info in Panasonic Apis but I can't find it. Do you have a link to Panasonic APIs, I'm willing to add GPS support myself but I can't find APIs

Make focus pulling for multiple preset points

Add ability to review images in the camera other than the most recent.

Hi
It appears that you can only review the most recent photo. Please add the ability to move forward and back through the other photos.

Bug: Not yet fully reproducible: On several occasions when pressing the rocker trying to see if I could review other images, GMaster would suddenly blink out of existence (stop running). I found I had to reset the app. After about the third time this happened I had to uninstall and re-install the app to get it to run again.

Reorganize camera class connection and disconnection into single class

Current logic for different cases of camera disconnection and reconnection are scattered in different classes which make it too complicated. Create single class which will decide what to do when camera connected, not responding, reconnected, disconnected manually

Focus point is not updated on camera switch

Great app but bulb mode only captures 1 second

Onn GX 85 when I put bulb mode, it only takes 1 second.

Blinkies not presented again when viewed from playback mode

If you have Blinkies enabled they are displayed when the photo is shown in auto-review. That is to say if you set the camera to hold and display the image just taken for 2, 5, etc seconds, you see the blinkies as they appear on the camera.

If you then take another image or wait for the review to time out and become live image again, if you hit the play button to look at images you've taken, blinkies are no longer displayed in GMaster but they are available for all the images you view in the camera.

Remember and autoconnect cameras WiFi

Touch Focus point reset

Hi
Please add if possible the ability to reset the focus point to the center and lock it there.

On the Gx7, G7 and G85 if you move the focus point by touching the screen it give you the option to set it. You have this part of the functionality now by simply clicking with the mouse anywhere.

On the cameras though, if you press the Disp button it will move the focus point back to the center. You then have the option to set it there as you would normally have.

I'm suggesting that you have a Disp button that would center and set the focus point. Granted we can do that with the mouse but it may take several clicks to get what appears to be centered.

display Folder and Filename

While using GMaster and/or LMaster it would be nice to be able to view the Folder - Filename of the last picture captured. I have reviewed all of your C# files and don't see any thing about the you or the Lumix camera supporting a method to retrieve this setting. Is this by design or omission, it is stored in the camera I'm working with GH5 > display button with green arrow > display button labeled "DISP". Also shows the SD card in use.

Thank you in advance for any information about how to get the filename out of the camera.
