Hi all,
I'm using QHY5L-II as auto-guide.
Today I update indi's software and after that I'm not able to take a preview from ekos.
When I click in preview button the image still to be in downloading and nothing is happening

From INDI control panel seem to be all ok:

2017-03-21T22:02:08: Device configuration applied.
2017-03-21T22:02:08: Upload settings set to client only.
2017-03-21T22:02:08: Loading device configuration...
2017-03-21T22:02:08: Using default recorder (SER File Recorder)
2017-03-21T22:02:07: Connected to QHY5LII-M-6057e710ac1271436.

Under main controls tab I see the device connected correctly (green light)

However, I noticed that whem I click on preview button under ekos, on INDI control panel --> main control, the Exposure field become yellow.

From the latest packages that has been update I see also the following package:
libqhy:armhf (0.1.8+r2999~201703202003~ubuntu16.04.1, 0.1.8+r3004~201703212005~ubuntu16.04.1)

In addition when I attach the QHY on USB port all is ok:

Mar 21 23:01:39 astroberry kernel: [ 1262.903400] usb 1-1.2.2: Manufacturer: QHY-CCD

Before the latest updates I was able to take correctly the preview.

I have the exact same problem now with a complete fresh install on my Pi, connection is ok, all checks out, but it´s stuck at downloading. Logs show that download should be complete, no errors reported, but it remains yellow and hangs.
