See the comments on this other issue: https://github.com/ayufan/camera-streamer/issues/120

The RPI 5 has no hardware encoding support so software encoding will be needed. I'm in the same boat.

Sorry if I ask this question but I have zero experience on these things: in the current state of affairs is there a solution to make camera-streamer work with raspicam v3? If so, is there a step-by-step guide that explains it to me?

[ayufan]

@smurfxx Not yet supported, but I plan to add it very soon.

[smurfxx]

Ok, thank you very much! I'll follow this github project for future updates! Just one more thing: how can I now about this future update? Will you write it here?

[smurfxx]

Another question: does camera-streamer work with older raspicam models or is the problem related to the operating system and/or new hardware of the Pi5?

@smurfxx I couldn't get my older Raspberry Pi Cam OV5647 working, for what it's worth.

I finished following this project because there is one that makes any webcam (even USB) work without any problem, on customized ports and with many other features. The project is this: https://github.com/signag/raspi-cam-srv
