    Hi Dmitry,

    Will update in v12 to not allow freeze in middle of a frame capture.

    Can you please confirm on above if you agree to allow freeze to happen
    in b/w frame captures?

    Also as most feedback has been received from you by now, appreciate if
    you can provide all in this v11 if you have anything else so we will not
    have any new changes after v12.

    Thanks

    Sowjanya
