Originally posted by Adam One of the main issues with the current version is that responses from the camera (which clear the busy state) aren't entirely consistent.
OK, but why isn't everyone complaining about the fact that they cannot get more than one file transferred?
EDIT: It seems that my use of two cards was the stumbling block.
I've tried to queue capture settings and when the software tries to process the queue it does not progress past the first image either.
Clearly others had more success?!?
FWIW, I was running V1.40 on my K-1. Perhaps the changes in V1.41 regarding Image Transmitter 2 version 2.3.0 make a difference?
I've just tried V1.51 and it didn't play at all, i.e., not even a single image could be transferred ("Error 142", IIRC).
EDIT: Probably V1.51 works as well and I unknowingly changed some other variable (e.g., using two cards again).
Luckily V1.50 works. N.B. do you happen to know what is behind the "Optimized performance when attaching new lens HD PENTAX-D FA*50mmF1.4 SDM AW" improvement?
With which firmware version were you using during development and/or currently?
I'm afraid, waiting for Ricoh won't do it. I don't expect updates to the API unless a new camera model somehow warrants that.
Originally posted by Adam I'd be open to someone poking around in the code to see if there's a trick to wake the camera up, but the only permanent solution here is to wait for proper support from Ricoh.
I'll have a look.
At least force-reconnecting after each capture should work. I could afford to do that as I'm not dependent on small or consistent gaps between captures.
I'm keen to write an application myself that focuses on live previewing and automatically pulling the latest JPEG capture to support some initial validation of focus, etc. I noticed that small JPEG files transfer rather quickly (at least with WiFi Commander). Currently none of the applications do what I want. WiFiCommander is close but some GUI programming issue forces an incredibly small LiveView image on my laptop (which has a regular 1920x1080 display but I guess my 147% custom scaling messes the software up).
