Arducam IMX-219, not giving 4k video

user82702 · January 23, 2022, 3:48pm

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.

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

user82702 · January 24, 2022, 9:41am

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.

ShaneCCC · January 24, 2022, 10:36am

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

user82702 · January 24, 2022, 10:38am

Yes, I did and it worked fine.

ShaneCCC · January 24, 2022, 10:40am

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

user82702 · January 24, 2022, 11:22am

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

user82702 · January 24, 2022, 11:28am

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

ShaneCCC · January 24, 2022, 1:05pm

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

user82702 · January 24, 2022, 2:15pm

Anything greater than 1920x1080 p.

user82702 · January 24, 2022, 6:07pm

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

ShaneCCC · January 25, 2022, 3:07am

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

user82702 · January 25, 2022, 11:04am

user82702 · January 25, 2022, 11:07am

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

ShaneCCC · January 25, 2022, 11:26am

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

user82702 · January 25, 2022, 11:51am

This again caused a reboot.

ShaneCCC · January 25, 2022, 12:52pm

What’s your BSP version?

cat /etc/nv_tegra_release

ShaneCCC · January 25, 2022, 12:58pm

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 */

user82702 · January 25, 2022, 12:58pm

In what file should I make these changes?
