Checking on Raspberry Pi 5 and PlayerOne

[barrettepp]

I am just in the planning stages of setting up an allsky camera. My original idea was to your TJ allsky program but I am getting a great deal on a player one Neptune C camera. So that got me looking into indi-allsky. I tried to ask this in the facebook group for allsky but none of the post were being accepted.
My questions is can I run a raspberry pi 5 and the Neptune -C camera. I just want to make sure it will work before I order the camera. Thank you

indi-allsky has been tested on Raspberry Pi 5 and Debian bookworm. All of the issues in that regard have been resolved. There have been no reported issues with INDI based cameras.

I think you should be good to go.

Thank you for the reply.

Yes. I have a Neptune C II running on Pi5 with Bookworm. Handles all quite well. Your only time consuming part will be dialing in the camera settings, I am still tweaking.

Sounds great. I am still waiting for all my supplies to come in. Trying to decide how I want to do a case. It will all come together.

I have separate enclosures for the camera and Pi. The pi I did put in a case with an active cooler, the case mainly to keep things safe The computer an extra storage are in an enclosure inside my garage, more a personal design choice.. and easier to access the computer if need be.
