Raw Blame History

libgphoto2 2.3.1.3.trunk
directory driver:
* ignore anything not starting by '.' because it is not DCF compliant
and it is use for things like Trash of metadata...
disk port:
* handle automounter properly.
libgphoto2 API:
* New gp_camera_get_storageinfo() API added to get programmatically
the storage information(s), like capability, free space and labels.
On cameras not supporting it returns GP_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED.
libgphoto2 2.3.1.2.trunk
Build:
* Non-recursive camlib build: Makes "make -j2" useful.
"./configure --with-drivers=..." still works. Selective camlib
rebuild is "make -C camlibs agfa_cl20.la" now. Selective camlib
install is "make DRIVERS='canon.la ptp2.la' install-drivers".
* Fix sierra and canon drivers picking up old gphoto2 headers.
* libiconv linking fix for PTP2 driver.
* Require external libltdl.
* Ditched autogen.sh, use standard autoreconf from stock autoconf.
* Put auto* files into auto-aux/ and auto-m4/.
libgphoto2 API:
* New gp_file_new_from_fd() ... Which allows mapping CameraFile to
UNIX filedescriptors for both reading and writing.
* New gp_file_slurp() function (for camlib use) to sequentially
read out CameraFiles.
Package / System integration:
* New syntax for print-camera-list's udev output. See help output.
* Add new permission setup binary doing Microsoft OS Descriptor
retrieval for MTP devices not explicitly listed.
This binary (check-mtp-device) is used by the generated UDEV rules.
PTP2 driver:
* New dataflow engine, making it possible to upload/download images
or songs without taking up any system memory. (think multi GB movies
on small devices).
Canon driver:
* Enable formerly experimental 20D support code by default.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
libgphoto2 2.3.1
PTP:
* Fixed a memory leak in continuous Nikon / Canon capture mode.
Bindings:
* Moved all bindings into separate packages.
Package / System integration:
* Add README.packaging file for packagers.
* Removed obsolete print-usb-usermap. Use
"print-camera-list usb-usermap usbcam" instead.
* Fix libgphoto2 symbol list: Removed gpi_gphoto_port_type_map
* Add new permission setup script doing class based matching for
PTP class cameras not listed explicitly by USB IDs.
This script (check-ptp-camera) is used by the generated UDEV rules.
Example usage:
print-camera-list udev-rules mode 660 group plugdev \
> /etc/udev/rules.d/90-libgphoto2.rules
or similar and set udevscriptdir='/lib/udev' at configure time or adjust
the path to check-ptp-camera in the generated /etc/udev/rules.d/90-libgpoto2.rules
file.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
libgphoto2 2.3.0
PTP:
* Improved Nikon remote control
* Improved Canon file download
- faster directory retrieval (especially on cameras with lots of files)
- "new" images are marked (gphoto2 --new, digikam)
* MTP Playlist support (upload and download)
* MTP Metadata support (upload and download, Artist, Title, Playtime ... )
* Lots of other MTP related fixes.
* MTP autodetection on Microsoft OS Descriptor.

* Disabled build, since it cannot the downloaded data to usable images.
Sonix:
* Bugfixes and support for Sakar Digital Keychain 11999.
Bindings:
* Removed the Mono/.NET bindings due to unclear license.

libgphoto2 API:
* Compiles with -pedantic in gcc's c99 and c++98 modes.
* Marked a few definitions as being internal to the gphoto project.
* Added gp_list_find_by_name() function.
* Made _CameraList details private.
libgphoto2:
* Fixed some directory handling problems for MTP players.
* Improved error checking and propagation.
* New error code for "fixed limit exceeded" (exceptions would be nice)
* Added a few internal functions.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
libgphoto2 2.2.1
* Fix build for FreeBSD users (and other non-Linux)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
libgphoto2 2.2.0
Build system (packagers beware!):
* You should generate HAL FDI, linux-hotplug usb.usermap, and udev rules
now via our program:
${libdir}/print-camera-list (hal-fdi|usb-usermap|udev-rules)
During a chrooted build you can use:
CAMLIBS=$BUILDROOT/usr/lib/libgphoto2/2.2/ print-camera-list hal-fdi
This obsoletes print-usb-usermap and print-udev-rules.
The hal FDI file should be put into:
/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/10-camera-libgphoto2.fdi
If you need to generate different stuff based on the cameras, please add
it to the "print-camera-list" helper.
* Added C# (csharp) bindings
Thanks to Patrick van Staveren <trick@vanstaveren.us>'s initiative,
we now compile, ship and install the C# bindings. However, a few
things will still change about it, so don't just completely rely on
it, its file names and locations, etc. just yet.
Client programmers (KDE, GNOME, MONO, C....) with specific character
set requirements:
* We added new function gp_message_codeset(const char*) to API.
- If you do not call this function, libgphoto2 will give you its
messages in the codeset defined by the system locale.
(The system locale is defined by the LANG, LANGUAGE, and LC_*
environment variables.)
- Call this function with your desired codeset if you require
libgphoto2 messages in a fixed codeset independent from the
system locale. For example, GTK+ applications always expect UTF-8.
- gp_message_codeset() propagates the requested charset to
libgphoto2_port and then calls gettext's bind_textdomain_codeset()
function.
* Added gp_camera_wait_for_event() API, to wait for
specific camera events and return them to the caller.
libgphoto2 changes:
* libgphoto DSO version is now 2.1.0
* Lots of bugs were fixed.
* New translations were added.
Driver changes:
* PTP
- PTP/IP support has been added.
- On selected Nikon and Canon cameras it is now possible to capture
images into the Camera SDRAM and in turn downloading it to libgphoto2
internal storage, bypassing the memory card.
To enable it, use the "capturetarget" setting, also saved in
.gphoto/settings.
This is useful for:
gphoto2 --capture-image -f /store_00010001 -p capt0000.jpg
Or use the timelapse capture of gphoto2:
gphoto2 --capture-image -F <total frames> -I <seconds interval>
Or write your own client using libgphoto2...
- Support of MTP devices has been greatly enhanced.
+ Creative Zen devices now work.
+ iRiver devices work, but have some protocol subtleties / flaws.
+ Object Property (Meta Data) support now works in a basic way.
GP_FILE_TYPE_METADATA type get and put can be used to retrieve
and set meta data for files.
get: Returns all available properties and their contents.
put: Set the properties found in the file to the specified content.
The non-listed are untouched.
The metadata looks like:
<Artist>Elvis Presley</Artist>
gphoto2 -f /store_00010001/Folder... --get-metadata file.mp3 --stdout > meta_file.mp3
... edit meta_file.mp3 ...
gphoto2 -f /store_00010001/Folder... --upload-metadata meta_file.mp3
gphoto2 --get-all-metadata ... retrieves metadata of all files, with meta_ prefix.
- Better --summary output, listing also Storage Devices and Device abilities.
- Lots of new device ids.
* Canon 5D, 30D, A340, A700, S40, S80
* Nikon D200
* Casio EX-Z120
* Kodak C360, Z700
* HP M317
* Panasonic DMC-LC1
* Fuji E900
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
libgphoto2 2.1.99 (pre-release of 2.2)
Build system (packagers beware!):
* now requires libltdl (from system or shipped with tarball)
* works with contemporary build tools
* new ./configure parameter set
* no more accidentally building without libusb (use --without-libusb
if you insist on that)
* camlibs and iolibs are now installed into new directories
* libhal 0.5 is currently an option for the disk: port.
Distribution that ships it might want to build it with it.
libgphoto2:
* If set, use environment variable CAMLIBS to find the camera drivers.
Ditto for libgphoto2_port, IOLIBS and IO drivers.
* disk: "port" for USB Mass Storage support
* various USB fixes
* Generate .fdi files for HAL
* Memory usage greatly reduced by only keeping last 2 pictures
in memory cache
Drivers (camlibs)
* basic MTP support for iRiver mp3 players using ptp driver T10,
T20, T30, M415
* canon
* IXY Digital 600 fixes
* Added A610
* Experimental SD500
* Experimental A620 (not really working)
* casio
* various fixes in QV-10 driver
* digigr8 (NEW)
* support Digigr8, Che-Ez Snap SNAP-U, Soundstar TDC-35
* kodak/dc210
* Added DC215

* Added Argus DC-1620, DC-1610 (experimental)
* Added Philips P44417B
* pdc640
* Added Clever CAM 360
* ptp
* For Nikon, handle ISO speed, aperture, exposure program,
capture, focus metering mode, flash mode, AF beep toggle
* Nikon curve
* Added Kodak Z730, Z7590, C340, LS753, V530, V550, C310, C330
* Added Nikon D50, D70s, 4600, 4800, 5600, 5900, Coolpix P2
* Added Canon A410, A520, A610, A620, IXUS 55, SD450, IXUS 750
* Added HP R817, Photosmart M23
* Added Olympus D-540z, C-310z, X-100
* Added Panasonic Lumix FZ5, DMC-LZ2
* Added Ricoh R3
* Added Sony DSC-H1, DSC-R1
* Added MTP devices (mp3 players)
* Some iRiver MTP devices (mp3/ogg players) are supported too,
but are experimental.
While the "Creative Zen Micro" is also an MTP device, we were
not able yet to decipher the PTP protocol deviation.
In general, MTP devices can be supported here, but you need
to add the ID in camlibs/ptp2/library.c directly, since they
do not have a USB class id.
* Now supports a "fast filesystem" mode on newer Nikon PTP cameras.
This speeds up initialisation notably on cameras with lots (>50)
of images.
However, this mode does not find the special files on the camera
(AUTPRNT.MRK). It also cannot represent the correct directory
structure.
For normal users (who just download and process the images) the
"fast" mode is recommended.
It can be toggled in the "Camera Settings" menu and ~/.gphoto/settings.
* sierra
* various fixes
* Added C-770UZ
* sq905
