Description

Early Return allows the "getImage" function to return before all frames are saved to the disk by SerialEMCCD plugin.

It saves some time but has some side effect:

1. The returned integrated image may not have a lot of signal.
2. User can not see if there is bad drift or not.
3. There is some memory leak issue in super-resolution mode that needs resolving. The frame movie saved end up incomplete and K2 computer eventually run out of memory and crash.
