Blackfly S USB camera frame rate

I am using Flir Blackfly S camera with Jetson Orin NX. When running SpinView I notice really low frame rate for this camera ca. 15 FPS. Also image flickers a lot.

Can this frame rate be increased and how? Can flickering be removed?

Running the same camera on same device but through python script, image is stable and no noticeable lag when something moves in front of the camera.

Hi,
Please try the method in

Q: I have a USB camera. How can I launch it on AGX Orin?

See if you can achieve target framer rate while running v4l2-ctl or gstreamer command.

Hi,
v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --list-formats-ext
Cannot open device /dev/video1, exiting.

using lsusb shows:
Bus 001 Device 009: ID 1e10:4000 Point Grey Research, Inc. Blackfly S BFS-U3-63S4C

Is this still an issue to support? Any result can be shared?

Yes. Still an issue. Proposed action didn’t solve it.

Hi,
Please consult with the vendor to get further support. By default UVC driver is enabled in Jetpack releases. If the device supports it, the device mode shall be present and you can capture frame data through v4l2 interface. Seems like the device doesn’t support UVC driver and has its own driver. Would be great if you can check with the vendor.
