Randomly unable to open camera

[s20dan]

Hi,
using this on a Samsung Note8 and a samsung Tab S2. Both devices did work and then both devices started throwing up error 99, unknown error when trying to stream the camera, an SV105.

The camera still connects to laptop/pc and works fine, unsure what to do.

Reinstall of the app fixed this the first time it happened but now doesnt seem to fix it.

Sorry for the vagueness of this report, I wish I had more data to give you.

This started happening perhaps 2 days ago.

Cheers.

Oh the Note S8 is on android 9 and the TabS2 is android 7.

I've seen it, sometimes even with PC. I don't really know what is the issue - it happens with 105C sometimes.

I noticed that sometimes after I disconnect/connect camera several times it starts working.

I'm not sure if this is related, but beta 30 crashes for me when I try to connect my camera (D7200). When I downgraded to beta 29, the crashing went away. I figure this might be related since the author mentioned that this started happening a couple days ago, maybe around the release of beta 30. I'm also using Android, version 14 though.

There is version 31 on google play. I just didn't uploaded it to github. It fixed Android 14 issue.

Do you want APK instead of Google Play?

[nicegamer7]

Ah okay, Google Play is fine. Thanks, and my apologies, I thought this was related to the issue.

Ah I'll try downgrading too to see if that has any luck when this happens. Ah I see all the APKs are on github, nice one!

I managed to get some good viewing tonight using your app, it's amazing when it works.
This was using my TabS2 which is a pretty old device and it's running Beta31. Then after about 45 minutes or so the screen hung and then I think it crashed. Sorry I should have paid more attention, but I was so excited by these shots it took.
Then the error 99 appeared again and no matter what I did I couldn't get it going again.

This is the log from when it was working in case it's any use to you, at the end is where the crash happened:
log.txt

And a log from immediately after
log.txt.6.txt

I didn't see anything obvious in there other than: 2024-07-24 01:30:08; stacker, info: Failed to stack frame (stacker_processor.cpp:120) lots of those, but my guess is that's because of what I was doing with it. I was using the app to take non tracked contiuous shots of the moon as it moved across the scope, I couldn't see a way of doing that easily so I was using Stacking mode and keeping all the data. It seems to have worked well. This was to combine them in photoshop and create a large composite eventually.
But is there a way to take shots without going into stacking mode, just while streaming? For this particular purpose and for wide starfield composite shots, that sort of thing.

Anyway, thanks again for releasing this.
