many thanks for the explanation. now the settings are clear to me
i think i will give it a shot and try it in the next clear night. (sadly very rare at this time in germany)
i will keep this post updated and it would be a pleasure for me, if someone has maybe a clue for the indi_rpicam driver. maybe all will work in a new build
thank you so far!

Thank you much for your answer! That made it clear to me. i guess too there will only be a kind of software binning. in the data sheet of the chip ( Sony IMX477 / www.sony-semicon.co.jp/products/common/p...MX477-AACK_Flyer.pdf ) is Binning listed in the features. but no word if hardware or software based. well no benefit here for me i sometimes forget that this is NOT a SBIG camera for 5000$
later this day, i will play a bit with the options in the webcam driver - maybe i can make the cam with it a bit more useful and fix the exposure time bug.
(i noticed that even the indi_rpicam does not react to different expsure settings in PHD2 - maybe there is the BUG)
i will update as soon i figured it out where the problem lies.

thank you - you were right! i forgot the "_ccd" i was so puzzled about the new error that i did not see my typo.
and the best is - the RPI Cam works with indi_webcam_ccd great. The resolution is at 1600x1200 okay with less than 1s delay. if i set the resolution to 640x480 the delay is nearly gone.
if i try to set the correct resolution PHD2 crashes totally
for guiding it would work for me with this lower resolution. i wonder if the binning is working with the indi_rpicam driver? i set 4x4 binning, but nothing happened - it should be much brighter, but no effect. i would love to have the binning feature , but if it isn't working with this camera, i can use the webcam driver too and i don't have a need for the rpicam driver.

Produced a bit debugging log from the driver. it looks like that the download is so slow. exposure finished at 16h26m23s and Download finished after 6s!

Hi there,
i am new here and could not find any post regarding a problem same as mine. so please forgive me if i was blind
I tried first with an raspberry 3B and after that with a new 4B (4GB Version) , same effect. Both have the actual Firmware running.
The Raspberry has the newest stable Raspi-OS and i installed INDI via the astroberry.io repository as described in the FAQ.
Everything works very well, except the Raspicam Module (or maybe the camera itself?) I can connect with PHD2 Guiding (running on my pc) over LAN and i get the Picture, but the Update needs more than 3 seconds to the next Image.
The polling frequency is set to 0.5s, the PI has 256MB shared video Memory, and a load Average while guiding around 0.2. So i don't see any bottleneck
Do you have any clues for me where i may start debugging? Or is this a normal behaviour with this camera?
Thanks in advance and best regards
Andy

just tested phd locally on the Raspi - except the extra load, the problem exists unchanged. So i guess it is definitively no networking issue. Connection did go to localhost.
very strange and i don't get the problem
