Raspberry Pi v2 Camera

[OneScuzzie2k]

Any instruction to get the Raspberry Pi v2 Camera working, i have added camera="raspi" into the octopi.txt but still not working.

Once you use octoprint_deploy, a whole different camera setup is used. octopi.txt no longer has any influence. You need to run the script using the picam argument. https://github.com/paukstelis/octoprint_deploy/wiki/Command-line-arguments#picam Keep in mind, as the instructions say, this may not work with the most recent version of OctoPi. I have not been able to verify how Pi cameras are described in the latest version.

Thanks will give it a go.

Didnt work for me :(

[paukstelis]

try this: sudo sed -i s/camera0/video0/ /etc/udev/rules.d/99-octoprint.rules then sudo udevadm control --reload-rules; sudo udevadm trigger

try this: sudo sed -i s/camera0/video0/ /etc/udev/rules.d/99-octoprint.rules then sudo udevadm control --reload-rules; sudo udevadm trigger

I am afraid no Joy with this either

[paukstelis]

what do you have with cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-octoprint.rules? and ls -la /dev/cam*

[OneScuzzie2k]

cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-octoprint.rules KERNELS=="1-1.4:1.0",SUBSYSTEM=="tty",SYMLINK+="octo_Creality" KERNELS=="1-1.3:1.0",SUBSYSTEM=="tty",SYMLINK+="octo_Spark3D"

ls -la /dev/cam ls: cannot access '/dev/cam': No such file or directory

[paukstelis]

No cameras have been setup yet. There is no way that it can work without going through those steps.

Still not working I am afriad

It is obviously not starting, but not clear why. Try this and paste output: sudo systemctl restart cam_Spark3D; sudo systemctl status cam_Spark3D -l --no-pager

[OneScuzzie2k]

Ahh ha thats done it thanks :) any reason why it wouldnt auto start?

[paukstelis]

Probably only because mjpg-streamer is terrible.

[OneScuzzie2k]

OK thanks can I change that?

[OneScuzzie2k]

Did a fresh install used ustreamer, now I cannot get a image at all I should just leave things.

pi@octopi:~ $ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-octoprint.rules KERNELS=="1-1.4:1.0",SUBSYSTEM=="tty",SYMLINK+="octo_Creality" SUBSYSTEM=="video4linux", ATTRS{name}=="video0", SYMLINK+="cam_Creality"

I have created the camera in sudo octoprint_deploy/octoprint_deploy.sh picam

But when I run the below I get cannot access the device. ls -la /dev/cam ls: cannot access '/dev/cam': No such file or directory

[OneScuzzie2k]

I have sorted it had to manually create a symbolic link sudo ln -s /dev/video0 /dev/cam_Creality
