AnsweredI have a BFS-U3 camera, and when streaming from SpinView, the stream can drop randomly, with the camera disappearing from the camera list.

There are a few reasons on why this could occur; the initial reason on why this would occur would be because of a bad cable being used, or bad physical connection from camera to port on PC; trying a different cable, or trying a different port on the PC, would test for this. Beyond that, there might be a power issue with the camera; if the camera is being powered through the usb3 connection, and you are using something like a laptop or arm board as your host PC, then this could cause power issues for the camera, in which case we recommend externally powering the camera, either through connecting the camera to an externally powered hub, or a gpio power supply.
