When do you intend to update version 4.5.0 to avoid crashes and the app closing by itself

Hello Dronelink team, how are you?
I would like to know when you intend to launch an update to version 4.5.0 that avoids crashes and also the program closing by itself?
Thanks.

    That type of thing is the joy of beta testing, reporting crashes etc with details of when they happen, and what you're doing at the time, don't forget, this is the first beta, could be a long way to go get, before a fairly stable version Congress along.

    I used to beta test some software as part of a private beta team, and we'd probably be in beta for about 3 months before the first public release, then maybe another month after that to tasty stuff for the first public path

    The issues are caused by a bug in the DJI SDK, which we have reported to them and they are investigating but have not given us a timeline. To be clear, DJI has labeled the version of the MSDK (5.3.0) as an alpha, and they asked us to help them test it.

    Martin, That's the point... let's work together

    Jim, how nice to know that DJi chose you to participate in the tests... hope everything goes well

    DJI claimed on Sunday/Monday that the video issues (at least for Mavic 3T) has been sorted out in a new alpha release, and that the official MSDK 5.3.0 should be released this week (week 14) in this thread:

    https://sdk-forum.dji.net/hc/en-us/community/posts/17166469335577-Mavic-3T-MSDK-problem-with-video-decoding-

    Hope they got all the bugs sorted out since making it official.

    Browsing DJI - found they have included Mavic 3&Pro on the developers page and updated the SDK 1hr ago :)

    I think this is it: https://github.com/dji-sdk/Mobile-SDK-Android-V5

    No support for Mavic 3 😔 Only Mavic 3 Enterprise, which only one in a million has/cares about.

    It doesn't appear that this release corrects the no video feed issues, but we will upload a build so you guys can try.

    Ok thanks, when I try I get a “”document lookup failed, it is possible the document was deleted” error. Not sure if it is user error or something else.

    I installed this new revision, but it keeps closing by itself…

    Google drive was having issues. It should work now.

    it keeps closing by itself

    Unfortunately, DJI did not fix the underlying issue causing this, despite releasing the SDK to production early today.

    I was able to test the update today and had some luck! I received a video feed and was able to complete a ~ 2 minute waypoint mission on my 3rd attempt. I had two beginning attempts that were aborted but adjusting the motion error tolerance a bit higher seemed to fix the issue on the third try. I was using the N1 RC paired to a Motorola Moto g stylus. Hope this helps, I’ll try again soon.

    I've just tried this for the first time. Mini 3 Pro and RC-N1 with Samsung S22 Ultra. App quits after a few seconds with the controller attached. Seems OK with no controller.

    Just downloaded again but I was looking at the version number rather than the build so will try again tomorrow weather permitting

    I did a mapping flight now with version 244 and everything worked correctly.
    Two comments:
    1- I just noticed a delay in the live transmission
    2- In all photo takings, the drone stops to take the photo. I did not configure this and I did not find an option to change it.

    Like a change for the worse from the previous build?

    Can you share your mission plan?

    Item #2 above has happened on both of my map missions and seemed to cause an app crash.

    Where does it show the drone stopping when capturing images?

    In the application it is not possible to notice due to the delay that was occurring during the flight, but as I flew very close I saw the drone stopping to take the pictures

    It happened to my drone but it was a mapping mission so the only evidence is that I saw it happen.

    It stopped at every single image capture, or just randomly from time to time?

    Every time it took a picture it stopped took a photo and moved on - for both of my missions. That also seemed to be when it would lock up the app and crash, every 2 or 3 waypoints.
