Issue with qv4l2 for R32.5

warpstar22 · February 23, 2021, 11:45pm

I’ve been on the Jetson platform for a while now and have been using qv4l2 just fine with the command qv4l2 -d /dev/video0. Now if I try to use that command for any of my 4 cameras on the devkit (2 CSI and 2 UVC), I get the following:

I’ve never seen this before and the only thing I can think of that is different on my setup is that I moved to R32.5 from R32.4. The cameras are still working fine for my application. The command also still works if I use raw mode with -R. I don’t know what raw mode is and why it works though.

What’s the pixel type of the CSI camera?
Have you try the v4l2-ctl.

Using v4l2-ctrl --list-formats-ext, the CSI cameras are RG10 and the UVC are YUYV although I’m capturing in MJPG.

Using v4l2-compliance, I get the following:

Does the error for both CSI and USB camera?

warpstar22 · March 2, 2021, 10:20pm

Yes, it happens for 2 CSI and 2 UVC cameras. All of which were fine using qv4l2 before. v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl seems to work fine and which is what I use in my program, but qv4l2 was much easier to experiment with different settings. The version of qv4l2 I have is 1.14.2-1.

ShaneCCC · March 3, 2021, 6:59am

I think the error could be the sensor didn’t implement some function that could be normal.
Did you try the USB camera on any x86 host PC.

Honey_Patouceul · March 3, 2021, 12:02pm

You may try adding --raw (-R) option:

qv4l2 -R -d /dev/video3

warpstar22 · March 3, 2021, 10:47pm

Yes, the UVC cameras work just fine on my Windows 10 laptop with the default camera application. Does the error from v4l2-compliance not tell us anything? It had 1 error for the CSI and 2 errors and 11 warnings for the UVC.

@Honey_Patouceul, yeah I saw that -R makes it work. Do you know why? The command was working just fine without raw mode.

Honey_Patouceul · March 4, 2021, 7:04pm

No, I’ve just noticed that with R32.5.1 and found this workaround.

Seems I’m unable to use guvcview as well…
I have a CSI IMX219 and USB ZED Camera on NX, but guvcview fails and only propose 2 argus devices while I’m specifying my ZED video node.
Not sure, but seems to me that that any V4L enumeration may now result in some Argus action, logging when not appropriate, and blocking further.
Someone from NVIDIA should be able to reproduce that and provide more correct information.

ShaneCCC · March 5, 2021, 4:33am

I think qv4l2 failed without -R should be the APP issue. It’s could be the UVC didn’t implement some CID or memory operation cause the issue. Did you have verify on any others platform with qv4l2?

Honey_Patouceul · March 8, 2021, 6:49pm

Hi @ShaneCCC,

Yes, I’ve tested my ZED camera on a ubuntu 18.04 host and qv4vl2 works fine. I’m sure it was also working in previous L4T versions, but I’m unable to tell when it stopped working.
I’m also seeing this when plugging in the ZED, not sure if these are just additional ‘not initialized’ driver messages with new version or a problem:

Are these expected ?

Furthermore, are you able to use guvcview with any UVC camera and R32.5.1 ?

Seems this issue is known and under investigation.
