QHY5-II subframe settings result in unresponsive driver

Hi,
when I change the CCD_FRAME settings of my QHY5-II cam with "unsupported" frame size settings (by accidentally choosing wrong subframe settings) , then the driver does not respond with some error messages but simply becomes unresponsive. I cant see a crash but the driver hangs in "GetQHYCCDSingleFrame".
For example frame size 32 pixel with 500 px offset in x-y is working, but the same settings with frame size 16 not. I am wondering how a client can determine which subframes are allowed and which not ...

The driver is running on a raspberrypi 2 with ubunutu mate 16.04 LTS.

Thanks,
Klaus

Hi,
this is not an INDI issuer per se, but more an issue of the QHY SDK library. Do we have contact to the QHY SDK developers?

Thanks,
Klaus
