Jetson TX2 camera capture sample dead around 1 hour

I have a TX2 Developer Kit and I follow the instruction to flash it with JetPack-L4T-3.2.1-linux-x64_b23. Everything is good and I can build the sample under vision works. I run the visonwroks sample program “nvx_sample_nvgstcamera_capture” with the onboard camera. It is come up and running good, but it will crash after about 1 or 2 hours. The window changes from color to white and black. From the terminal window, there is no error message. can anyone repeat it? I am not sure that I get defect hardware issue or I did something wrong.

Thanks,

Hi,

Here is a workaround:

1. ps aux | grep -i nvcamera-daemon
2. kill {PID of nvcamera-daemon}
3. sudo /usr/sbin/nvcamera-daemon
4. start nvx_sample_nvgstcamera_capture from another console.

We are still working on this to find a solution.
Will update information with your once we have.

Thanks.

FYI, if the name of a program is unique, then you can do this for kill:

sudo kill<b>all</b> nvcamera-daemon

…if that won’t kill, then you might use:

sudo killall <b>-9</b> nvcamera-daemon

Hi,

The root cause is the consumer can’t deal with the high frame rate producer.
We suggest to set the fpsRange to 30 if the sensor has higher frame mode to avoid this issue.

Thanks.
