I am trying to use a Sony A6000 camera as a webcam to stream videos on a Linux computer. By running gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download, I am able to take a photo on the camera a few times. However, afterwards, when I try to take another picture or take a video, the camera throws a PTP timeout error and is not able to take pictures nor videos (after 3-4 photos). My gphoto2 version is the most recent as I saw on another issue that a similar problem has been fixed in the most recent version, but it doesn't seem like it for me.Thank you in advance!
