I added a dark library to an already existing profile. Had no issues at all. Everything was fine. Now a week later I am getting the message "dark library does not match camera being used etc. Make sure you are connected to the camera for this profile". I made no changes to the camera, profile or anything else so not sure why this is coming up or how to resolve.
Thanks,

Dave

as always, please use the log uploader to post your logs (even if you did not do any guiding)

My offhand guess is that you are using a dual ZWO setup and PHD is connected to the wrong camera (probably your imaging camera rather than the guide camera). check the camera it's connected to.

Thanks Brian. Will do. I'm actually using a QHY  guider. I think I figured the problem. For some reason the camera binning was changed in the camera settings. I changed it back to what it was initially. Seems to be fine now
