The problem

I'm trying to use a ESP32-CAM with the cameras DCX-OV2 640-V2 and OV2640. None of them work, I keep getting "Got invalid frame from camera!"

Which version of ESPHome has the issue?

2022.12.3

What type of installation are you using?

Home Assistant Add-on

Which version of Home Assistant has the issue?

Please check that your data pins are in correct order - like:

define Y9_GPIO_NUM 35

define Y8_GPIO_NUM 34

define Y7_GPIO_NUM 39

define Y6_GPIO_NUM 36

define Y5_GPIO_NUM 21

define Y4_GPIO_NUM 19

define Y3_GPIO_NUM 18

define Y2_GPIO_NUM 5

I had the same issue. For me the solution was to remove the ref to the power down pin GPIO32 from the YAML.
