Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System
Hi,
I just looked more carefully at the error message when the Prosilica driver crashed and you were running under gdb:
>>Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
>>[Switching to Thread 0xb749fb90 (LWP 22434)]

This is a known bug in EPICS base R3-14-10 on Linux with Posix signal handling. It is fixed in R3-14-11, or you can patch 3-14-10. Unfortunately it is not described on the 3-14-10 known problems page, and there is no official patch for it. However, I have a patch file I will send you separately.
This problem is described in a previous tech-talk message:
http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/tech-talk/2009/msg00420.php
and in the release notes for areaDetector R1-4:
http://cars9.uchicago.edu/software/epics/areaDetectorReleaseNotes.html
My driver should work fine with the Prosilica GC780. The Axis products are very different from the Prosilica cameras. They stream compressed video (M-JPEG, MPEG-4, etc.), rather than uncompressed images. They are more typically used for surveillance than for scientific data acquisition.
