Issue using camera

JordanRJ · October 7, 2022, 2:13pm

Hello,

I am working with Nvidia Jetson Xavier NX (dev board) and connecting to it a CSI-camera (IMX2019- raspberry cam V2.1).
On jetpack 4.6, I was able to use camera easily.
On jetson 5.0.2, I am more struggling. At first /dev/video0 was not existing, after rebooting, it finally appeared.
I tried several different commands like :

gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc num-buffers=1 ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM), width=3264, height=2464' ! nvjpegenc ! filesink location=sample.jpg

or even

gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor_id=0 ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=3820, height=2464, framerate=21/1,format=NV12' ! fakesink

No matter what I tried I get errors like following :

Setting pipeline to PLAYING ...

I also tried to get daemon log like explained here : Jetson L4T 35.1 - CSI camera's issue with gstreamer - #13 by shreyas.pa

and got directly in CLI those errors :

hello JordanRJ,

is this a typo? are you actually using IMX219?
is the video node, /dev/video0 generated? could you please also catch the kernel init logs for reference,
thanks

JordanRJ · October 12, 2022, 7:17am

Hello,

Sorry, it is a typo, I am using IMX219.

Yes the /dev/video0 is generated and I will try to catch and send kernel init logs.

Thanks

JordanRJ · October 12, 2022, 8:41am

Here are the logs.

Thanks
kernel.logs (122.9 KB)

JerryChang · October 12, 2022, 9:08am

hello JordanRJ,

there’s probing failed. I doubt this node video0 is generated faulty.

[   28.512190] imx219 9-0010: imx219_board_setup: error during i2c read probe (-121)
[   28.517783] imx219 9-0010: board setup failed
[   28.518011] imx219: probe of 9-0010 failed with error -121

could you please share the picture of your IMX219 camera modules?
may I also know the camera vendor it is?
thanks

JordanRJ · October 12, 2022, 9:20am

As stated in the first message, it is an official raspberry pi camera module v2.1.

Here is a pic :

JerryChang · October 13, 2022, 3:17am

hello JordanRJ,

I check your logs again and it looks you have IMX219 camera detected and register to linux video node.
I assume you’ve dual camera slots on carrier board, and you connect single IMX219 camera senor to it.
for example,

[   28.519261] imx219 10-0010: tegracam sensor driver:imx219_v2.0.6
[   28.536157] tegra-camrtc-capture-vi tegra-capture-vi: subdev imx219 10-0010 bound

are you able to execute v4l-utils to check the sensor formats,
for example, $ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --list-formats-ext

if it reported sensor formats,
please try below commands to access camera stream,
for example, $ gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor-id=0 ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=1920, height=1080, framerate=30/1, format=NV12' ! nvvidconv ! 'video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),format=I420' ! fpsdisplaysink text-overlay=0 video-sink=fakesink sync=0 -v

JordanRJ · October 13, 2022, 12:02pm

Hello,

So I tried first command again (already did it when trying on my own) and got :

ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT
	Type: Video Capture

	[0]: 'RG10' (10-bit Bayer RGRG/GBGB)
		Size: Discrete 3280x2464

Second one to access camera stream lead to failure, here are the logs :

I have seen this subject that seems to be similar and is currently also trying to understand.

hello JordanRJ,

we’ve test on Xavier NX with eMMC, which has dual camera connector.
we’ve also try the same setup to connect single IMX219 and launch the camera stream for confirmation.
IMX219 works on Xavier NX Jetpack-5.0.2 release version.

could you please…

please shutdown the board, test with other camera connector.
check whether you had camera_overrides.isp file under /var/nvidia/nvcam/settings/, if yes, please try removing that for testing.
please clean your Jetpack release image, re-download the Jetpack-5.0.2 release version, re-flash the target to test again.

JordanRJ · October 17, 2022, 8:05am

Hello,

I tested solution 1 and 2, but first one did not changed anything. And for the second one, the file “camera_overrides.isp” did not exist.

I will try third solution as soon as I can, but I think there is an issue with the module Raspberry Pi V2.1 on Jetpack 5.0.2 as I am not the only one with the issue. (link in previous message).

JerryChang · October 17, 2022, 8:22am

hello JordanRJ,

is this a typo?
we’ve check and confirmed IMX219 works on JetPack-5.0.2/Xavier NX eMMC.

JordanRJ · October 17, 2022, 1:50pm

It was a typo

JordanRJ · October 21, 2022, 10:09am

Hello,

I do not understand, I redownloaded the package and flashed it again, same issue happening.

JerryChang · October 24, 2022, 2:06am

hello JordanRJ,

can v4l2 standard control works?
please refer to Applications Using V4L2 IOCTL Directly to enable V4L2 IOCTL to verify basic functionality.

as I mentioned previously,
we’ve test on Xavier NX/ IMX219/ JetPack-5.0.2, it’s worked.

JordanRJ · November 7, 2022, 11:12am

It does not seems to work neither.

I do not understand why it works (tried it again) on jetpack 4.6 but does not on 5.0.2

JerryChang · November 15, 2022, 7:48am

hello JordanRJ,

there’re two camera connectors, J1 (CAM1), and J9 (CAM0).
may I know which you’re used and had you tired switching to other connector for testing?

JordanRJ · November 15, 2022, 10:41am

Hello,

I tested both and restarted also multiple times the jetson with connector already plugged-in, for both connectors.

JerryChang · November 16, 2022, 2:41am

hello JordanRJ,

may I know how your flash your target.
for example,
are you using native Jetpack-5.0.2 release version through SDKManager,
or, you’ve download sample rootfs and flash the target manually?

JordanRJ · November 16, 2022, 4:01pm

I flashed it following official tutoriel for dev kits so using balena etcher

JerryChang · November 17, 2022, 5:40am

hello JordanRJ,

is this Xavier NX re-flash completely, or you’re just replace the SD card image?
