I didn't have a chance to test if anything is improved with the new minimum time for flip patch, which I suspect won't cover this issue, but I would add that this is outright unsafe for the equipment because these crashes cause the camera cooler to be shutdown abruptly, which is less than ideal for thermal shock, especially if your ambient temperature doesn't get below 15C like in my case, and the camera can very well be -30 from ambient. It gets a thermal shock at every flip, and that is scary to say the least.

If you're using MacOS nightly, then ASI drivers should be the latest one and should include the fix

Hi everyone
I tested with the updates to stable, in particular: github.com/KDE/kstars/commit/f2af0c8cc14...d09c65be7daebea74f7f
MFs worked with both simulator and hardware.
Logs attached.

Not extensive tests, but at least looking good. If others could test too, that would be great.
Cheers, happy new year and clear skies to all,
Steve

Binary Factory has been broken for 18 days. Is there another more reliable source for Mac nightlies?

20 days.

How do us Mac users get an updated version? The Binary Factory Mac OSX versions (both stable and nightly) has been broken for 20 days now.

Both are OK in Binary factory. It seems nightly reporting it's building for Dec 18th but I think that's just a mis-label. All builds are green.

Maybe I’m looking at the wrong site? This page has not changed since December 18th. I’ve checked it every day.

First session with the new build didn't freeze after flip for me.
I'd be cautious and wait for another one at least since it was not happening every time even before, but I think it might be solved!

If only we could be done with these high winds!

Second session with flawless flip tonight!
For me at least, this seems solved.

After three clean sessions, the camera disconnnects again after the meridian flip. So NOT solved here.
Log attached.

Maybe stuck "downloading..." and "camera disconnect" are TWO different problem?
