Hi all, while using the code on this link , https://github.com/vladimirvivien/go4vl/blob/main/examples/capture0/capture0.go , I am facing resource busy error after some iterations at the instance where it tries to open the device. I am using the exact same code but in loop.

please let me know for any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

@dipshirajput Thank you for reaching out and apologies for the late reply. That error is usually returned if the device is being used by another process. Without additional detail, I would suggest the followings:

Ensure no other process is using the camera device
Unplug the USB cable for the device and replug it in
And rerun the program

Let me know if that works or not.
