Hi,
I have an OV9732 camera interfaced with TX2-4GB varient. I have taken OV5693 camera as reference and did the driver and device-tree porting for OV9732. Video nodes and subdev nodes are coming.
Now when i am trying to capture raw images or videos using gst-launch and yavta i am getting full black image with horizontal lines on it. Camera preview is bad.
Camera Details:
OV9732
format: bayer-bggr
res:1280x720
fps:120
command to capture frames:
gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc num-buffers=200 ! ‘video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=1280, height=720, framerate=30/1, format=NV12’ ! omxh264enc ! qtmux ! filesink location=test1.mp4 -e

Please suggest how can i fix this preview.
Have v4l2-ctl to get the raw data to confirm the sensor setting first. You can use 7yuv to check the raw data.
v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --set-fmt-video=width=1280,height=720 --set-ctrl bypass_mode=0 --stream-mmap --stream-count=1 --stream-to=ov.raw
Hi Shane,
We got the reason for the black image, calculated the pixel clock again and kept frame rate to 30fps in the device tree. and now with v4l2-ctl command able to capture raw frames.
I have one more query, in our design i am having four cameras. I want to capture video from all the four cameras.
i found below command to capture video but it is automatically picking video2, which is third camera in our case:
gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc num-buffers=200 ! ‘video/x-raw(memory:NVMM),width=1280, height=720, framerate=30/1, format=NV12’ ! omxh264enc ! qtmux ! filesink location=test2.mp4 -e
Can you please suggest how can i capture video from all the four cameras parallely using gst-launch ?
That’s weird the default should be sensor 0,
You can add sensor-id=1 to the pipeline to select sensor.
gst-launch-1.0 nvarguscamerasrc sensor-id=1 num-buffers=200 ! .....
Hi Shane,
Actually right now in my device-tree, under tegra-camera-platform below entries are done for modules:
modules {
module0 {
badge = “e33_topleft_P5V27C”;
position = “topleft”;
orientation = “0”;
drivernode0 {
/* Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) /
pcl_id = “v4l2_sensor”;
/ Driver v4l2 device name /
devname = “ov9732 7-0036”;
/ Declare the device-tree hierarchy to driver instance /
proc-device-tree = “/proc/device-tree/i2c@c250000/ov9732_f@36”;
};
drivernode1 {
/ Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) /
pcl_id = “v4l2_lens”;
proc-device-tree = “/proc/device-tree/e33_lens_ov9732@P5V27C/”;
};
};
module1 {
badge = “e33_centreright_P5V27C”;
position = “centerright”;
orientation = “0”;
drivernode0 {
/ Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) /
pcl_id = “v4l2_sensor”;
/ Driver v4l2 device name /
devname = “ov9732 2-0036”;
/ Declare the device-tree hierarchy to driver instance /
proc-device-tree = “/proc/device-tree/i2c@3180000/ov9732_e@36”;
};
drivernode1 {
/ Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) */
pcl_id = “v4l2_lens”;
proc-device-tree = “/proc/device-tree/e33_lens_ov9732@P5V27C/”;
};
};
So When i am running gst-launch with sensor-id=0 then module0 is capturing the videos and when i am using sensor-id=1 then module1 starts capturing but its not releasing the buffer and is stuck as below:
Setting pipeline to PAUSED …
Pipeline is live and does not need PREROLL …
Setting pipeline to PLAYING …

and in the dmesg, its trying to capture on all the three cameras as below

your response will be awaited.
Not very clear for your problem.
Do you have verify the video0/video1 by v4l2-ctl to confirm the kernel sensor driver.
v4l2-ctl --stream-mmap --stream-count=100 -d /dev/video0
v4l2-ctl --stream-mmap --stream-count=100 -d /dev/video1
Hi Shane,
Apologies for late update.
Yes, the issue is resolved. earlier the position parameter naming was not proper. Now with below changes gst-launch command is working with both video nodes.
modules {
module0 {
badge = "e33_topleft_P5V27C";
position = "topleft";
orientation = "0";
drivernode0 {
/* Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) */
pcl_id = "v4l2_sensor";
/* Driver v4l2 device name */
devname = "ov9732 7-0036";
/* Declare the device-tree hierarchy to driver instance */
proc-device-tree = "/proc/device-tree/i2c@c250000/ov9732_f@36";
};
drivernode1 {
/* Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) */
pcl_id = "v4l2_lens";
proc-device-tree = "/proc/device-tree/e33_lens_ov9732@P5V27C/";
};
};
module1 {
badge = "e33_centerright_P5V27C";
position = "centerright";
orientation = "0";
drivernode0 {
/* Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) */
pcl_id = "v4l2_sensor";
/* Driver v4l2 device name */
devname = "ov9732 2-0036";
/* Declare the device-tree hierarchy to driver instance */
proc-device-tree = "/proc/device-tree/i2c@3180000/ov9732_e@36";
};
drivernode1 {
/* Declare PCL support driver (classically known as guid) */
pcl_id = "v4l2_lens";
proc-device-tree = "/proc/device-tree/e33_lens_ov9732@P5V27C/";
};
Thanks for the support.
