ESP32-CAM Locking up #42

First let me start by letting everyone know I am novice with the ESP32-CAM. Purchased 2 from Amazon. Espressif used to install firmware. Been experiencing lock ups. Several times had to reflash the firmware as no service ap started after power cycle. I can't quite put my finger on the specifics to make it die every time using same steps. Seems to be this scenario. Connect to the camera config page. Ping to service ip 192.168.0.1 -t. This is to watch when cam dies. Click start stream which starts the stream. Go back to camera config and click scan wi-fi for example. Camera loses pings. Happens in probably less then 2 min. Sometimes it drops 3 - 6 then reconnects but other times its dead. Rebooting camera by pulling usb cable and reconnecting does not bring it back in all cases. In this situation flashing firmware resurrects it. Over past 10 days probably flashed firmware 10 times. I am currently on 1.0.3. Few screen shots below of settings. Have experienced same with 2 other firmware version. Ideas recommendations?

Hello @janetpoague . Yes, stream funcionality is too complicated in the FW. The stream is using too many hardware resources, and sometimes the RAM can run out when uploading photos to PrusaConnect while simultaneously sending photos via the stream. Are you still experiencing this issue?

Maybe the uploading to PrusaConnect could be paused while an mjpeg stream is active?
