I have Jetson Orin Nano, when I have flash the image through SDK Manager, the camera was working fine with OpenCV and was able to see the real time streaming by passing the 0 index in video_cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
After a few days, now I am testing again but the camera is not working. I tried multiple solution from multiple resource but nothing works: the below command show me this information but nothing works when I am passing 0 or any index in opencv even tried “dev/video0”.

v4l2-ctl --list-devices
NVIDIA Tegra Video Input Device (platform:tegra-camrtc-ca):
	/dev/media0

HD Pro Webcam C920 (usb-3610000.xhci-2.4):
	/dev/video0
	/dev/video1
	/dev/media1

Further information of multiple commands are follow:

cat /etc/nv_tegra_release

Hi there @muhammad3 and welcome to the NVIDIA developer forums.

I think the dedicated Jetson category will give you better support for this topic. I hope you don’t mind my moving your post over there.

Thanks!

Hi,
Please refer to the steps in Jetson AGX Orin FAQ

Q: I have a USB camera. How can I launch it on AGX Orin?

If the issue persists, please consider re-flash the system and try again.
