Please elaborate what the issue is related to KIAUH.

Not sure what the issue is related to honestly. When I run Octoprint by itself the PiCam works fine but If I use a Octoprint installed through Kiauh the Picam does not work.

Octoprint pre installed on Octopi? In that case a required camera streamer is probably installed as well. That doesn't happen during the Octoprint installation with KIAUH. It's an assumption of what you might want to say, though im absolutely not sure if thats what you actually try to say.

Must be the streamer then. I'll do some research on how to add it and update the issue on github.

@joelstitch when installing octoprint with kiauh, ive had to install mjpeg-streamer, and point webcam to http://octoprintip:8080/?action=stream to use webcam

I vaugely remember having to raspi-config and enabling legacy support as well using raspi official HQ camera double check your driver setting under /boot/config.txt as well if using libcamera/camera-streamer driver info found here

there may be more configuration in mjpeg-streamer

sidenote: Also Octopi ships with mjpeg-streamer installed and configured if youre installing octopi from the raspi imager then I believe you're using a different fork with camera-streamer stack Refer to THIS blog post
