Toupcam Snapshot Freeze

SUMMARY
Hello Jasem,

i am new to this awesome software. I am trying to learn it, but it seems that is not possible for me to go ahead; i own a Toupcam G3CMOS16000KPA(Panasonic Sensor). While i try to take a shot, sometimes it goes well, most of the times it get stuck on "shooting", without download the preview image. This also happens when i try to focus, if i switch from "guide camera(qhy)" , to toupcam, or vice versa, the first camera takes the image, then it freeze. I've tried almost all possible configutations in the Indi control panel, without results. It also seems that "black level/offset" is missing as a setting, i can only try to black balance, without results.

Apologize if this is a bad or useless report, i am new to this.




STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect Device
2. Try to take captures with Toupcam
3. Switch to guide camera, or maybe try to preview and take a picture.

So this is not a KStars problem, but INDI. At any rate, the driver was recently update so please check it out.
