The problem is that connecting a device to a program is like bluetooth - when one device are connected connections to other devices are blocked. In technical terms these connections are 1 - 1. Thanks Michael, I have received this link which will answer my problem and probably minimise the issues when DT drops the connection it involves adding a custom udev rule and using a script to activate it. https://askubuntu.com/questions/640765/disable-auto-mount-of-only-camera-sdcard-on-usb-connection Cheers Andrew darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org

I had success with shooting tethered but darktable is still a bit flaky, so when it drops out the other process mounts, then I have to find the icon again and unmount that system manually. So I would rather be rid of the competitor. then when darktable drops all I have to do is hit the mount camera button in dt and I am back on track. I don't plug the camera in to upload my files, and I rarely shoot tethered, it is a sure fire way to slow down a session.

[darktable-user] darktable and tethering
Dear all, I have read the chapter in the Fine Manual on tethering, but I have an issue with the system capturing the camera before darktable can assert itself. If I am lucky the icon for the attached camera appears on my Linux Mint Desktop, then I can unmount the camera and get darktable to mount it. It appears in lsusb as Easy Camera. My best case scenario would be to make darktable the default, and the heck with anything else. But that is beyond my skill level. I am hoping to run a ZOOM meeting on Thursday night where a tethered camera is required.
