Hello.
Greetings all.
I have an IMX-219 camera attached in the following link:

Unfortunately when even though the website suggests 30FPS on 4k, but my camera crashes when I try to access it via video-viewer or Gstreamer.

Please help me in the manner.

Where as
video-viewer --input-width=3280 --input-height=2464
Causes a reboot.

This sensor doesn’t support 30fps@4k, for 4k(3280x2464) is 21fps only.

4

Yes, I know.
But I am not able to get video from it, not even at 21 FPS, the camera just crashes and my board reboots.

5

Did you try modify the width=(int)2560, height=(int)1440, framerate=30/1 to 1080p or 720p to verify?

6

Yes, I did and it worked fine.

7

Below error tell need to modify the framerate=28/1

8

This is causing my jetson nano to get stuck and then reboot, so I can’t show you an output.

9

I managed to take a picture of the screen before it rebooted.

10

What resolution will hang and reboot?
Could you check with v4l2-ctl

11

Anything greater than 1920x1080 p.

12

Update: I have tried other IMX-219 cameras too, all of them are having this issue of rebooting while trying to geta 4k video.

13

Could you try below command.

v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --set-fmt-video=width=3264,height=2464,pixelformat=RG10 --set-ctrl bypass_mode=0 --stream-mmap
14

15

My monitor is not 4k can that be an issue?

16

OK, could you try below command.

gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=3264,height=2464,format=NV12' ! nvvidconv ! fpsdisplaysink video-sink=fakesink --verbose
17

This again caused a reboot.

18

What’s your BSP version?

cat /etc/nv_tegra_release

19

cat /etc/nv_tegra_release

R32 (release), REVISION: 4.4, GCID: 23942405, BOARD: t210ref, EABI: aarch64, DATE: Fri Oct 16 19:44:43 UTC 2020

20

Could you try move the {IMX219_TABLE_WAIT_MS, 10} after {0x0103, 0x01}

static imx219_reg imx219_mode_common[] = {
	{IMX219_TABLE_WAIT_MS, 10},
	/* software reset */
	{0x0103, 0x01},
	/* sensor config */
21

In what file should I make these changes?
