Help with IMX219 Cameras

Greetings. I have a freshly flashed and setup Orin Nano Dev using Jetpack 6, CUDA 12.2.140, cuDNN 8.9.4.25, TensorRT 8.6.2.3, VPI 3.0.10, Vulkan 1.3.204, and OpenCV 4.8.0.

I have a IMX219 77 on port 0 and an IMX219 160 on port 1.

When I run “v4l2-ctl --list-devices” I get:
NVISIA Tegra Video Input Device (platform:tegra-camrtc-ca):
/dev/media0

cannot open device /dev/video0, exiting.

I have been going through the instructions here [Jetson Orin Nano Developer Kit User Guide - How-to | NVIDIA Developer](https://Orin Nano Dev Guide)

When I enter this command:

Blockquotegst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc ! ‘video/x-raw(memory:NVMM), width=(int)1920, height=(int)1080, format=(string)NV12, framerate=(fraction)30/1’ ! nvvidconv ! video/x-raw, format=I420 ! x264enc ! h264parse ! qtmux ! filesink location=output.mp4 -e

I get the following:

My assumption is that I missed a step somewhere, but I have gone through this quite a few times now.

Thanks for your help!

Looks like we can close this too. After all day digging through hundreds of posts and comments, scripts, walk throughs, and a million other documents, I found the solution:

After running sudo /opt/nvidia/jetson-io/jetson-io.py and reconfiguring those ports, just like magic it started working.

Suggestion?
It would be EPIC if all these related topics could be consolidated into an easy to navigate area. A guide on How to use cameras (Yeah, you kinda have that) but link to it common problems and solutions.
