CameraController requires the camera to comply to UVC Standard. I don't really know if the GoPro meets the criteria, for example, can you use it for FaceTime / Photo Booth?

Thanks for the answer. No I can't use it with Photo Boot or FaceTime, I can use it with any browser, Zoom, and other apps though.

Same problem with GoPro 8 Hero Black.

According to what I have read, GoPros are not UVC compliant, this means that the host computer cannot control it.

I am closing the issue because of this

Any chance you can look at make the CameraController work with not UVC compliant cameras like GoPro? That would be awesome.

Anyways, thanks for the great project!

@olebedev Probably no, it requires the camera itself to have such feature, usually it is down with the UVC standard.

Browsing GoPro website, we can see that their utility doesn't even support changing these settings, so the answer is now (but if they add support via a firmware update in the future, I can add support for it)

@Itaybre, got it, thanks for the explanation. Good to know :)
