I did not try asi_camera_test, but will when I set up again.

Should we revert to the previous SDK version? If this SDK version is buggy, I suggest we revert until the issue is address by ZWO.

That might be advisable. I reverted to a copy of the build I had from March 19, and it worked great for the rest of the night last night.

running `git diff c882e29822f6b692a6d6db2e48e99cab88ac31a5 .` it looks like the previous version of the Camera SDK was 1.16.3. The EAF and EFW were updated on the 19th.
I think we can leave those alone and only change the camera version. Thoughts?

I think that's a good idea... we need to increase the debian version (and I presume spec too) so that is overwrites the nightlies...

The spec won't need changed. It also has a date-stamp automatically, so will get updated with the merge.

Alright, go ahead then and please prepare a PR if you can. Anyone reporting these crash issues to ZWO?

Just tried it with my laptop and the ASI183MC.  Did crash, too:

Yes, 1.16.3 is also what I run for observations (a compile from March 11).
ISTR that there were also reports of issues with the filter wheels here in the forum.  They do work for me, though, as does the EAF.

I have not had any problems with my filter wheel either.

I fixed my crashes by 1) purging libasi, then 2) recompiling indi using 'git checkout dc02153a571281f613321df0cad912d5ae09480a' instead of 'git checkout master', i.e. going back in time to March 10 when everything still worked for me.

Not the cleanest method, but fast and after doing that my ZWO filter wheel, Moonlight focuser and ZWO cameras were back in action again.

I assume that reverted the ZWO SDK also, but I did not check.

Running latest nightly (2021-04-21T23:50:23Z) on Ubuntu 20.04.2.  Immediately on starting Ekos I get a dialog that says "INDI Driver indi_asi_ccd crashed.  Restart it?" and it will cycle a couple of time (probably once for each ASI CCD device), and then show the INDI Control Panel without my ASI devices.  I also see a message about the driver crash in the log.  Latest Stable (3.5.2 I think) works fine on the machine.  Related?
