Night Photo or Night Time-lapse Photo Preset FAILURE #242

Hi, I'm using GoPro labs for a while (more or less 2 years) and still running into same issue with Night Photo modes. It's no matter if I'm using Photo Mode set to Night Photo or Time lapse Mode set to Night time-lapse, very time the camera (GoPro 8 or 9) is about to take some photos during the "day" it hangs! No qrlog event either. Is it because of long exposure metering, buffering or what? My thought is: do not use the Night modes! if you want to use Labs for time-lapse or time delay functionality - because it will fail. Stick to standard photo mode or time-lapse mode and you are good to go!

Question: Is there an option to make a time-lapse from night (long exposure) to day (high shutter speeds)? What I came up is to try to use ND filters to prevent from higher shutter speeds, but it will affect the night photos as well, e.g. causing longer exposures than intervals. Are there any other solutions?

Never seen that. What firmware are you running? Please share the qr code that causes the crash. I use Night mode all the time, day or night.
