Hi,
Is your camera Raspberry camera v2?

I’m also having this issue with both the built-in camera driver + dtb, and custom camera drivers.

R32 JP4.4 Nano B01
I’ve had instabilities for the past week or two, but today it completely stopped working.
Running gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc ! nvoverlaysink with an IMX219 camera freezes the OS and causes a reboot.

Here’s some slightly different logs. The camera ran for a few seconds, then crashed.

Hi EbrahimAli,
Could you try below command to see if it works?

gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor-id=0 ! ‘video/x-raw(memory:NVMM), width=(int)3264, height=(int)2464, framerate=21/1’ ! nvvidconv flip-method=0 ! ‘video/x-raw, format=(string)I420’ ! xvimagesink -e

If it still doesn’t work, please take a picture about the whole camera kit. We would like to check how the camera is connected.

Not sure what happens but it starts working now, even for the first pipeline. it is not happening everytime

Hi EbrahimAli,
Please re-connect the camera module to see if it can fix the stability issue.

I am using a raspberry pi camera V2 and it crashes whenever I try to run the camera with gstreamer through python or commands on the terminal
The only command that seems to work through the terminal is nvgstcapture-1.0 --orientation 2
