-===== Live Capture Setup ====== +
-\\  +
-<color #ed1c24>IMPORTANT!</color> +
-After failing to capture images from four of my cameras, I figured gphoto was not going to help me with anything other than copying files. +
-\\  +
-\\  +
-<color #ed1c24>However</color>, I discovered this little gem: gphoto2 is configured by default to capture files to your camera's RAM. You need to set it to capture to the SD Card.  +
-\\  +
-\\  +
-Type in the following from the terminal. +
-\\  +
-    gphoto2 --get-config capturetarget +
-\\  +
-You will most likely get the following: +
-\\  +
-\\  +
-Label: Capture Target +
-Type: RADIO +
-<color #ed1c24>Current: Internal RAM</color> +
-Choice: 0 Internal RAM +
-Choice: 1 Memory card +
-\\  +
-\\  +
-Here we can see that the capture target is set to <color #ed1c24>Current: Internal RAM</color> and we want it to be <color #ed1c24>Memory Card</color> +
-\\  +
-\\  +
-Enter the following: +
-\\  +
-    gphoto2 --set-config capturetarget=1 +
-\\  +
-Now when we check, we should get the following: +
-\\  +
-Label: Capture Target +
-Type: RADIO +
-<color #ed1c24>Current: Memory card</color> +
-Choice: 0 Internal RAM +
-Choice: 1 Memory card +
-\\  +
-\\  +
-Now we are set to record captures to the <color #ed1c24>Memory Card</color> +
-\\  +
