    Hi,
    i’m Carlo Caligiuri from Italy and i own a ST-8300M. The camera isn’t recognized anymore by windows and, as the previous owner says, that most probably cause is the USB chip failure. I ordered the Cypress Chip CY7C68013A-128axc for eventually replace it but i have some questions about EEPROM and Firmware.

    As i could see on github inidi lib driver, on macOs when the camera is connected the driver load the firmware to the USB Chip RAM using fxload trough this command: "/sbin/fxload -I /lib/firmware/sbigfcam.hex -D $env{DEVNAME} -t fx2”.

    My questions are:

    1)Is it possible to upload using fxload the sbigfcam.hex to the camera EEPROM?

    2)the firmware file “sbigfcam.hex” contains VID,PID and camera firmware that is loaded at boot of a new Cypress Chip USB interface?

    Really thanks in advance for your support!
