Hi,

I have been trying to get my photos to save to a separate location on my Raspberry Pi with gphoto2, but when installing from fresh I do not get a settings file to change these parameters.

Any help would be great.

Thank you,
Langzy

    it is usally created on first use... it will be in ~/.gphoto/settings so if you use the pi user, in its homedirectory.

    in your case probably:

           Default value for this option can be specified in the ~/.gphoto/settings file as gphoto2=filename=value.

      Hi Marcus,

      Thank you for the quick response, unfortunately I do not see this under my homedirectory on the pi...

      Apologies, I think I have looked everywhere that would reference a home directory
      I have looked under here for the home directory; https://imgur.com/d0yuAxo & gphoto2 directory; https://imgur.com/WEsFVxp and libgphoto2 https://imgur.com/PpFDGYE with no luck for a settings file (unless I am being totally blind)
