Does anyone know if any projects exists for libgphoto2? I wrote an object oriented interface to libgphoto2 and have a problem with tethering (using the computer to control a camera) where after some time my camera will turn off during a period of inactivity.
To reset camera tethering you have to manually turn the switch on the camera to off then turn it back on again, wait a bit then press a button in my application to try and connect again. This is a inconvenient as you have to stop using the computer and fiddle with the camera constantly. I am wondering if anyone has handled this before and had any insight on how to prevent a camera from just powering down. If I continually take photos this might fix the problem, but that would interfere with other operations as the camera is occupied during that period and it would cause random intervals where camera settings could not be made. The library seems to have some application idle timeout functions, but they don't seem to do anything with my camera at least. I appreciate your thoughts.
