This build is made to enable users to test whether the app also connects and/or partly works for models other than the 4k.

Please only download if you're willing to provide some feedback. Please create an issue if there is none already.

photo mode

Some things to test:

  1. Connection: Manually connect to the camera via wifi. Does the application recognise a connection? (It should hide the "trying to connect" screen and enter the normal interface.)
  2. Does the cameras video stream get shown?
  3. Change between video and photo: Please test if changing the switch (top of the interface) changes the mode on the camera, as well.
  4. Sub modes: There should be buttons on the left side of the interface if the camera advertises them as supported. They should differ between video and photo mode. Are those buttons visible? If so, do they change the mode on the camera, as well?
  5. Shutter: The big button should start a recording/take a photo. Does it?
  6. Options: Enter the camera options via pulley menu. Are there any settings visible? Are any of those advertised as "changeable" (white text, tapping them goes to a sub menu to change them)? Does changing them work?
  7. Existing files: In the main interface, there should be an indicator for existing files on the camera if there are any files on its SD card. Is it there? Does tapping it go to an overview interface for existing files? Do they load?
  8. File transfer: Try to transfer a single file (pulley after tapping on a media entry) to the phone. Does it work? If you have enough space in your home partition: Try downloading all files from the media overview pulley. (Files should land in "Pictures/Yi"). Do "raw" photos get transfered (if the camera supports them)?

Please note the Model you're testing with.

If some of the steps do not work, it may be helpful to start the application via ssh and save the terminal output. Beware: There may be a lot of output for the current version. Also, there may be more or less sensitive information in it (like file names on the sd card in your camera).

The command to start it is sailfish-qml yikes (there is no binary as of yet).

Thank you!
