Dear All,

Only one camera works for dual imx219 settings. Are there any suggestions?

Setup:
OrinNX 8GB JP5.1.1 R35.3.1
Two IMX219 M12/CS mount CMOS Cameras
Seeed J401 carrier

Error:

Hi，zeyu：
Looking at the reasons for your error, I guess you can use the following methods to solve it, I hope it will be helpful to you:
1. Restart the camera or restart your NVIDIA host
Restarting the program to run again (I used a jetson tx2 connected to a Cheetah camera) also encountered related issues
sudo systemctl restart nvargus-daemon
After the nvargus-daemon is restarted, it can run normally

2. Install ros’ csi camera package (theory: I’ve done this on linux but I haven’t tried one on NVIDIA), I’ve put the link up on github: GitHub - peter-moran/jetson_csi_cam: A ROS package making it simple to use CSI cameras on the Nvidia Jetson TK1, TX1, or TX2 with ROS.

Dear Jostar,

Is this method work for both camera at the same time ?

Hi，vincentng:
In theory, it is OK, as long as the configuration and startup is no problem, there should be no problem (Forgive me :smiling_face_with_tear:, I have not tried whether it can be applied to two cameras, ha ha, because I do not know dual cameras, the above problems are the problems I encountered when using ordinary cameras and solutions, I also hope that if you can have capable friends can try and share :star_struck:）

Thanks Jostar, will try on it.
