Some Settings are not applied to the NoIR Raspberry Pi Camera about indi

[knro]

Do you know of a simple open source app that runs the NoIR camera? We can look at the code and see what is it different from the INDI V4L2 driver. That's all I can say that as I do not have the camera here to investigate.

I have sucessfully used RPi_Cam_Web_Interface (which works fine): https://github.com/silvanmelchior/RPi_Cam_Web_Interface

If that software is to complicate I can search for an easier one and/or run some tests if needed.

I don't think you actually use the raspistill command however here is the output that shows all possible arguments and options:

` raspistill 2>&1

raspistill Camera App v1.3.11

Runs camera for specific time, and take JPG capture at end if requested

Many users are reporting issues with using the RPI Cam with INDI for a variety of reasons. We'd appreciate any contribution to to the code (V4L2 INDI driver) to make it more compatible with this camera if possible.
