Hello Ladislav,
I think this might be a general issue with the INDI GPhoto CCD driver, as I have tried to use both Canon EOS 450D and Canon EOS R7, running under both ManjaroLinux and ArchLinux with kstars 3.6.6, both with libindi-2.0.4 and libindi-gphoto 2.0.4.
Connecting the DSLRs works fine, also video preview work using the ' Streaming' 'Stream on' button; but a crash of the INDI GPhoto driver can be reproduced all the time on clicking the 'Record (Frames)' button. After showing a dialog box that the INDI GPhoto driver crashed and a countdown to zero also kstars crashes.
On kstars stdout I see two INDI GPhoto related messages:
Dispatch command error(-1): INDI: Could not find property DRIVER_INFO in GPhoto CCD
Dispatch command error(-1): INDI: Could not find property CCD_EXPOSURE in GPhoto CCD
I have re-built kstars from git with debug infos using the AUR (aur.archlinux.org) kstars-git, libindi-git and libindi-gphoto-git recipes:
* kstars 3.6.8 beta (= kstars-git 1:cfc274ad1-1)
* libindi-git v2.0.4.7.gb38785840-1
* libindi-gphoto-git v2.0.4.7.g4056c204-1
Re-runnind under gdb gave me this stacktrace (which occurs as soon as I clicked on 'Record (Frames)' in the GPhoto CCD 'Streaming' tab:
Thread 1 "kstars" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The logfile looks like this:

Maybe that helps in tracking down the problem?
Kind regards,
