Problem with triggering DFK 33UX178 <case:443985> #168

Closed kolyalyan closed 6 years ago

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

I tried to use trigger-images.c and trigger-images.py, but first one always returns "Could not trigger" and second one says "Valve is broken. Cannot save image".

Python one also returns following lines: !!!!!Element message came from: prepare-window-handle !!!!!Element message came from: have-window-handle !!!!!Element message came from: GstNavigationMessage

It shows the real-time stream, but can't snap a picture.

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

Out of a topic: I have noticed that camera become as hot as 40-50 C after a short time (less than 10 minutes). Is it normal?

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Hello

trigger-images.c:

"Could not trigger" means, the software trigger property of the camera is not available. Please install the uvc extension, as shown at https://github.com/TheImagingSource/tiscamera/wiki/UVC-Extension-Units

trigger-images (.py)

You may update your repository, because in the trigger-images Python sample is no text with the word "valve".

I hope, this helps.

Hello, Stefan! Thanks you for reply, but unfortunately it didn't help. Permanent solution was applied before. But while trying to make it manually, it returns:

Also I'm sorry for previous misunderstanding, it was not "trigger-images"'s output, but "pipeline"'s. I tried to snap pictures via this example, and it said about "broken valve".

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Hello

please do a

tcam-ctrl -p serialnumber

and show me the output. I tried the trigger c sample on my computer and it works.

Now I've done something really wrong... I tried to build all "libwebcam" library from link which you sent me. I downloaded it, extracted, made dir "build" and after executed commands "cmake .." and "make" from "build" dir. Now I do not see real-time stream from any .c code and from any .py too.

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

"Libwebcam" is necessary only, if uvcdynctrl is not available in the standard Linux packages. Ubuntu 16.04 has this in its packages. I am not sure, what happened now on your computer, but you can try

TCAM_LOG=DEBUG gst-launch-1.0 tcambin ! videoconvert ! ximagesink

and let me know, what happens.

However, the tcam-ctrl output shows all necessary properties. Therefore, even "Software Trigger" is available and should work, as it does on my Ubuntu 16.04. Which Linux do you use?

I have some "transparent" window. On screen that I attached it is in full screen mode. bug

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Hello

The pipeline was successfully started. The transparent window is the ximagesink window, waiting for an image. It waits, because either trigger mode is still enabled, but the camera is not triggered or the camera is too fast for your computer.

Therefore, simply disconnect and reconnect the camera. This should disable the trigger mode definitely. Then you use

gst-launch-1.0 tcambin ! video/x-raw,format=BGRA,width=640,height=480,framerate=30/1 ! videoconvert ! ximagesink So we get 640x480 @ 30 fps. Your computer should be able to run that. If this works, you can try

gst-launch-1.0 tcambin ! videoconvert ! ximagesink again

Stefan

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

Yes, you were right, triggering was enable (strange). I reconnected the camera and now all real-time streams work fine again. But anyway I still can't snap any picture. Python codes return same outputs as before, C triggering code says "could not trigger".

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Hmm Please comment the line

tcam_prop_set_tcam_property(TCAM_PROP(source), "Trigger Mode", &trigger_val);

just for testing, whether you get a live video.

Stefan

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

Nothing changed. I still have a real-time stream and no triggering.

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Yes. this is the expected behavior, if the trigger mode is not used. However, we know, the program is running with live stream. If you uncomment the line again, then you wont get a live stream. Please check, whether "Software Trigger" in the string is written as tcam-ctrl shows it.

I believe, it must be something very simple. However, I tried the sample with a DFK 33UX290 (I don not have a DFK 33UX178 right now) and it works. I do not get an error message.

Now I got 8 properties found...

I reconnected the camera and output is same? What happened?

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Uhm, that is quite different to your post 3 hours ago... what did you change?

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

Nothing. I reconnected camera and maybe rebooted later. It is a bug I think.

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Do following:

sudo mkdir /usr/share/uvcdynctrl/data/199e
sudo cp <tiscamera>/data/uvc-extensions/*.xml /usr/share/uvcdynctrl/data/199e

(Copied from the wiki link, I meantiond hours ago) Then restart the computer. check tcam-ctrl -p serial

Trigger mode and software trigger must be back again.

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

I have this folder already (even before your first message it was there). But I will change the files inside now.

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

I've rebooted and again same 8 properties...

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

I catch the moment than it have changed!

I ran the following code: sudo uvcdynctrl -i usb3.xml -d /dev/video0

But after this code sudo uvcdynctrl -i usb3.xml -d /dev/video0 (it again returned many errors), I can't receive real-time stream (I got "transparent" window instead of stream). Then I reconnected the camera and again got just 8 properties.

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Starting with sudo uvcdynctrl -i usb3.xml -d /dev/video0 so you have all properties. Please run the trigger-images sample with TCAM_LOG=DEBUG ./trigger-image serialnumber Let me know the output.

The software trigger pushes, no error message, only, there is no image. We are going in circles.

Please enter the examples/cpp directory of the tiscamera repository. Do following

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
cd tcam-view
./tcam-view

Select the camera. Use a small video format and low frame rate. On the left side of the program, you will see the camera properties. Enable trigger and try the software trigger. If this works, the 3072x2048 @ 60.00024 fps may is too fast for your computer all frames are dropped. That would explain that the ximagesink does not get anything to display.

Attached you will find a cpp sample code, that uses the TcamCamera wrapper class from examples/cpp/common. With this, we can set the video format and frame rate comfortably. See

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    gst_init(&argc, &argv);

    // Open camera by serial number
    TcamCamera cam("00001234");

    // Set video format, resolution and frame rate
    cam.set_capture_format("BGRA", FrameSize{640,480}, FrameRate{3,1});
...

tcamsoftwaretrigger.zip

You must also change the CMakeLists.txt for the location of your tiscamera repository i the line

set( TISCAMERA_DIR /home/bvtest/projects/tiscamera-1.0)

then you can do the usuall stuff:

mkdir build
cmake ..
make
./tcamsoftwaretrigger

Please try that too.

Ok, I have deleted "if" part of the CMakeLists file and it works. I executed the program and it returned followings:

Also, as I understood from code, here should be a live stream too, but it didn't appear.

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

The "return()" in the CMakeLists.txt is the problem.. Sorry for that. And also I missed a "0": wrong:

cam.set_capture_format("BGRA", FrameSize{640,480}, FrameRate{3,1});

correct:

cam.set_capture_format("BGRA", FrameSize{640,480}, FrameRate{30,1});

The camera wont support 3 fps....

Please check with 30 fps. I suppose, you will see a live video.

BTW: Which computer model do you use?

What is the output of

lsusb -t

Stefan

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

Yes, now here was a live video. And many "callback called" strings in output.

My computer: MSI GE72 2QF Apache Pro Ubuntu 17.10 Intel Core i7 4720hq nVidia 970m 16gb RAM

But lately I'm planning to use camera on Odroid XU4 with archlinux (arm) onboard.

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

Please also do a lspci

We now figured out:

Now rise the video format and frame rate step by step. Use following parameters for each test:

cam.set_capture_format("BGRA", FrameSize{1920,1080}, FrameRate{30,1});

cam.set_capture_format("BGRA", FrameSize{3072,2048}, FrameRate{15,1});

cam.set_capture_format("BGRA", FrameSize{3072,2048}, FrameRate{30,1});

On my old Core i5 with a fast USB 3.0 controller I get images with all these parameters.

Stefan

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

I see live video with all formats include max resolution at 60 fps.

The hardware is ok too.

Thus: software trigger is working know, camera is working now and you got a working and hopefully easy to understand sample code. Can we close the issue?

Use this sample save-single-image.zip

Adapt the line

Tis = TIS.TIS("31510423",640, 480, 10,True )

to your needs

kolyalyan commented 6 years ago

Ok, that works, but you have to change "raw_input" to simple "input", otherwise it raises an error that name "raw_input" is not defined.

And I solved the video problem -- it was because of a .lock file.

Then I have last 2 question: 1) Can I adjust the video quality (and things like resolution, fps)? Since it is very poor now. 2) Is there any forum for questions about coding?

`Tis = TIS.TIS("camera serial",3072,2048,30,True)

Is there any forum for questions about coding? Depend on what. I think, you will find Python und GStreamer samples and maybe als forums in the internet. I must admit, I did not search explicitly for that.

I meant C code (save-video). How to change quality in it?

TIS-Stefan commented 6 years ago

This depends on the used codec and its properties. In this case I am not sure about, what you are doing. I searched in the internet for "gstreamer avi capture sample" and got many results, e.g. http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Example_GStreamer_Pipelines You may search too.

Hello, Stefan! I have encountered some small problem: How should the "tcam_demo" (.cpp example) work? I have executed it, it prints video formats and properties, after return "pipeline refcount at cleanup: 1" and nothing else. As I understood from code it should display some video. I tried to change "xvideosink" to "autovideosink", but it also didn't change anything.
