Hello,15700000.vi : PXL_SOF syncpt timeout! err = -11".
Camera 4K60 comes in with 8 lanes, MIPI CLK speed is 1.86g, and reception is normal.
Camera 2K60 comes in with 4 lanes, MIPI CLK speed is 968M, and reception is normal (720P reception is also normal).
Camera 4K30 comes in with 4 lanes, MIPI CLK speed is 1.85g, and reception is abnormal, always reporting (PXL_SOF syncpt timeout).
Please help to investigate this issue. Thank you. he following is the DST configuration

hello 15521198701,
your DST configuration still works with 8-lane config.
also, please check Sensor Pixel Clock section to examine your clock settings.
hi ，jerrybus-width = <8>; , the VI can still obtain the image
hello 15521198701,
device tree settings need to be identical with your hardware setups.bus-width = <4>; in device tree accordingly.
TrevinN:
bus-width = <8>;
OK, and may I ask what does num_lanes = "" represent, and is it necessary to match the value in bus-width = <> ?"

hello 15521198701,
VI tracing logs… tegra-vi4 15700000.vi: PXL_SOF syncpt timeout! err = -11 which means VI engine cannot wait start-of-frame within timeout limit.
“Hello, in our project, the camera end increased the pixel clock by 10M, which translates to a MIPI CLK of 232MHZ * 8 = 1.856gb/s, while the normal theoretical value is 222MHZ*8 =1.76gb/s. Would this increase in 10M pixel clock deviation affect the SOC and cause VI reception timeout?”
2023/4/17 10:49:56
hello 15521198701,
had you update the pixel clock settings, and update the device tree binary to your target correctly?
HI Jerry，
If the input resolution, such as 3840*1080, is a non-standard resolution and is not configured in the DTS mode, can the VI work properly?
device tree settings should be identical with the active pixels that sensor actually outputting.
So does this mean that in order to add a resolution, the corresponding mode for that resolution must be configured in the dts, and only then VCAP can capture images?
hello 15521198701
may I double confirm what’s VCAP you’re mentioned.
furthermore, it’s device tree settings to report hardware specific settings.
2023/4/18 15:19:31
“I would like to know if it is possible to dynamically add resolutions, in addition to manually adding them through modeX nodes in the device tree, and have them take effect with the VIDIOC_S_FMT command. According to testing, if a resolution used by VIDIOC_S_FMT is not included in the modeX list , it will not work.”
hello TrevinN,
is the process involved reload the kernel module, *.ko file?
hello，jerry ，
