Edit raspberry pi camera settings

What is the problem? Settings

What did you already try to solve it?

Additional information about your setup (OctoPrint version, OctoPi version, ...)

Is there anyway to get the ability to change settings in octoprint for the raspberry pi camera?

Looks like there are controls for brightness, contest ect.

Nope, not in this case. It isn't in core because OctoPrint isn't OctoPi and not everyone runs OctoPi and/or uses the bundled webcam server that can be configured through that file.

This is what plugins are for.

I honestly didn't realize OctoPrint was for other platforms other than the Raspberry Pi because the vast majority of the Download page is dedicated to OctoPi. It wasn't until I scrolled down further that I realized it isn't just a raspberrypi software.

I use it on an x86 machine myself
