I've been having a strange issue since I started learning KStars with OAT. For some reason the imaging sequence crashes after a somewhat fixed amount of images. It's not always 32 photos, but today I tried three sequences with 30s, 60s and 120s exposures and every sequence crashed after exactly 32 photos. Sometimes longer exposures have made it up to 60 photos or smth, but 30s exposures rarely much over 30.

When the certain number of photos is reached, the sequence freezes for a bit and then the INDI control panel (the one that shows the mount and DSLR configuration) shows up. Based on the logs the camera connection gets "destroyed" and then found again, which opens the control panel. After that has happened, if I touch the sequence controls, like stop and start it again, KStars crashes totally.

These lines can be found on the log

org.kde.kstars.indi] - Received new device Canon DSLR EOS 60D
org.kde.kstars.indi] - INDIListener: New device "Canon DSLR EOS 60D"

I don't even know if KStars is to blame or if the camera or something inside Astroberry does something weird.
Any idea how to debug this further? I'll add one log file as an example.
