Then, ls /dev/videoX*
Do not have any videoX in dev directory , even device have connected with CSI camera.

Is that any driver hot the camera has to be installed ?

Kindly aid me to get solve this issue.

hello nexncommunication2023,

it’s reported failure for device registration.
are you using developer kits with Raspberry pi v2, imx219 camera module?
if yes, please try running Jetson-IO to Configure CSI Connector.

Hello JerryChang,
Thank you for your reply.
Am using imx219 camera module. I will try how to configure CSI connector and let you know.

Hi JerryChang,
Even after the configuration of CSI connector , There is no videox in /dev/videox directory.

could I know the reason for the below log board setup failed

hello nexncommunication2023,

it sometimes due to false hardware connection.
please check you’ve having correct pin direction of your flex ribbon cable.

Hello JerryChang ,

I had even checked the ribbon cable. Still this error persists.
kindly tell how could I solve this issue.
I also attached the output of contain the set of commands regarding camera module.

let’s confirm you’re using Orin developer kits with Raspberry pi v2, imx219 camera module.
could you please share a picture of your device, thanks

Hello @JerryChang
I have attached the picture of the Nvidia Device with camera
Device Name : Nvidia Orin NX Developer Kit
Camera : UC-439 Model

How can I fix this problem? Is it HW prblm or CSI interface (Driver prblm)?

11

this is not Raspberry pi v2, imx219 camera module…

12

Okay ,If i change the camera module ,is it works ? because error occur as Board setup fails

And Can you mention any related IMX219 camera module ??

13

please see-also… https://jetsonhacks.com/2019/04/02/jetson-nano-raspberry-pi-camera/

14

I have attached another camera module named as p5vq4a sunny Raspberry Pi v2 ,can i use that camera module ?

15

hello nexncommunication2023,

it’s not plug-n-play, please apply kernel and device tree update to adapt the camera driver.
you may also contact with Jetson Partner Supported Cameras.

16

Hello JerryChang,

Could you please share any links to update kernel and device tree update to adapt the camera driver

17

hello nexncommunication2023,

you may read developer guide, Building the Kernel and Flashing a Specific Partition.

besides, you may consider using USB camera.
please see-also Camera Architecture Stack, you could bypass libargus, running with v4l2 interface to fetch the stream directly.

18

Hi JerryChang,

Thank you, I will definitely have gaze on the kink you have shared.

Even I do not have /dvs/git/dirty/git-master_linux/multimedia/nvgstreamer/gst-nvarguscamera/gstnvarguscamerasrc.cpp .

Here my USB camera is working fine with my nvidia device. Connection of CSI camera with my nvidia is the actual problem.

sudo media-ctl -p -d /dev/media0

How do I know my camera name because I do not have any details related to the name of the camera

hello nexncommunication2023,

CSI is passive. it’s simply send controls and waiting for sensor output streams to CSI channel.
please check your sensor is actually enabled and outputting MIPI signaling.

Hello JerryChang,
I will try.
