Problems with raspberry pi V2 camera running Oacapture

I have just connected a V2 Pi camera to my astroberry setup. I am using a Pi 4 board. If I run Ekos and set up a profile with the CCD set to V4L2 CCD and nothing else, I can capture images with the camera. No problem.
When I launch Oacapture and click on Camera there are a variety of options listed as (V4L2) bcm2835 XXX. One is (V4L2) camera0. No mater which one I select, the program either locks up or reports Unable to connect camera or crashes out.
I'm not well experienced with the Pi, so if you need logs you had better explain exactly how I get them.
Really pleased with it other than this issue.
Many thanks

Make sure that you disconnect the camera in INDI Control Panel before using it with other software e.g. oaCapture. Otherwise it's locked by INDI driver.
