How to fix the camera timeout error ?

billyhe — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 08:12:27 GMT

hardware environment: CPU: i.MX53, camera: OV5640

purpose: use the video for linux(v4l2) interface to get the picture with 2592x1944

dirver files: ov5640_camera.ko mxc_v4l2_capture.ko

test program: mxc_v4l2_capture.out

add device file normal, at the end will creat /dev/video0 file

Why the picture size bigger than 720x576 will happen timeout error ? How to fix it?

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

daiane_angolini — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 12:40:43 GMT

I have never used "big" capture mode to make "small" movies. So, I´m not sure it would be supported.

You need to make sure you´re using a correct configuration set to control your camera. Take a look on your camera driver and see if the frame rate are supported for a capture mode, and what would be the standard width x height.

In addition, imx53 can encode up to 720p, it won´t encode 2592x1944.

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

billyhe — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 01:59:08 GMT

I just want to take the photos, then I need to preview. So I use the capture mode. Do you has the better method to take photos?

Thank you very much !

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

daiane_angolini — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 13:11:07 GMT

As I remember ./mxc_v4l2_capture.out does not take photos. It make movies.

And, it would be better to determinate width and height of it. Something like:

./mxc_v4l2_capture.out -m 4 -h 640 -w 480

Please, see usage in order to make sure you have a correct command line.

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

billyhe — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 15:24:04 GMT

./mxc_v4l2_capture.out -m 4 -h 640 -w 480

If the command line just like you say, then about the ov5640, the mode 4 , width = 1280, height = 720, it's the 720P, i.MX53 can encode up to it. And your command should like this:

./mxc_v4l2_capture.out -m 4 -ow 640 -oh 480

Excute the command, it's correct. But if I excute following command:

./mxc_v4l2_capture.out -m 4 -ow 1280 -oh 720

It will happend the error like front what I said. I didn't modify the drivers ov5640 or mxc_v4l2_capture. I used the bsp was L2.6.35_11.09.01_ER_source that it is download from freescale.com.

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

daiane_angolini — Fri, 01 Feb 2013 14:48:09 GMT

hum. Maybe you need to take care of frame rate as well.

Sorry, I don´t have a board over here to test, and i don´t remember the complete usage for this unit-test. But, unit-test is a very-very simple, and maybe it only work great for some parameter range.

In addition, take a look on this file:

linux-2.6-imx.git - Freescale i.MX Linux Tree

Here you can see all supported capture modes:

enum ov5642_mode { ov5642_mode_MIN = 0, ov5642_mode_VGA_640_480 = 0, ov5642_mode_QVGA_320_240 = 1, ov5642_mode_NTSC_720_480 = 2, ov5642_mode_PAL_720_576 = 3, ov5642_mode_720P_1280_720 = 4, ov5642_mode_1080P_1920_1080 = 5, ov5642_mode_QSXGA_2592_1944 = 6, ov5642_mode_QCIF_176_144 = 7, ov5642_mode_MAX = 7

};

If you look for "720P" you will see that there is only one table definition to configure camera with 1280_720 resolution and 30 FPS.

So, if you try to use capture mode = 4 and 15 FPS, camera will not work.

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

billyhe — Sun, 03 Feb 2013 08:17:51 GMT

Yes, if I use capture mode = 4 and 15 fps, camera will not work. But the demo default is 30 fps, so if I did not set it, it can be 30fps. So the camera shoud be work, but it cannot.

Pass freescale FAE's help, to change the input channel can take the bigger pictures, unfortunately, the colors has lost. And I have no idea to fix it.

Can anyone help me ?

shanmugamsundar — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 14:52:08 GMT

hi billyhe,

can you able to capture low resolutions such as 240p, 480p. If it so you can able to ccapture 720p also.

can you conform me whether you are using default driver file or customised one.

thanks,

shan

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

billyhe — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 05:53:22 GMT

Hi shanmugamsundar,

Yes, I can capture the picture less than or equal to 1080P, and I use the default driver with ov5640.

Thanks.

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

shanmugamsundar — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 14:19:00 GMT

ok now tell me your issues and what you want to do b'coz i am working on the same platform i.mx535 and ov5640. i've come across the issues what ever you are facing. i hope i can help you

Thanks

shan

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

billyhe — Fri, 01 Mar 2013 07:32:35 GMT

Thank you very much! Now I used the unit test to capture the picture. The command like this

./mxc_v4l2_capture.out -m 6 -fr 15 -i 1 -iw 2560 -ih 1920 -ow 2560 -oh 1920 -c 20 2592.yuv

then I used the mxc_v4l2_output.out to play the .yuv file, but it is non-distinct image.

If the mode is 5(1080P), it is no problem.

Re: How to fix the camera timeout error ?

yangthomas — Tue, 15 Jul 2014 08:36:16 GMT

my mistake,

720p and 1080p are not work, esle is ok.

./mxc_v4l2_capture -iw 640 -ih 480 -ow 640 -oh 480 -m 0 -i 1 -r 0 -c 5 -fr 30 -d /dev/video0 vga.yuv

./mxc_v4l2_capture -iw 320 -ih 240 -ow 320 -oh 240 -m 1 -i 1 -r 0 -c 5 -fr 30 -d /dev/video0 320240.yuv

./mxc_v4l2_capture -iw 720 -ih 480 -ow 720 -oh 480 -m 2 -i 1 -r 0 -c 5 -fr 30 -d /dev/video0 720480.yuv

./mxc_v4l2_capture -iw 720 -ih 576 -ow 720 -oh 576 -m 3 -i 1 -r 0 -c 5 -fr 30 -d /dev/video0 720576.yuv

./mxc_v4l2_capture -iw 1280 -ih 720 -ow 1280 -oh 720 -m 4 -i 1 -r 0 -c 5 -fr 30 -d /dev/video0 720p.yuv

./mxc_v4l2_capture -iw 1920 -ih 1080 -ow 1920 -oh 1080 -m 5 -i 1 -r 0 -c 5 -fr 30 -d /dev/video0 1080p.yuv

./mxc_v4l2_capture -iw 2592 -ih 1944 -ow 2592 -oh 1944 -m 6 -i 1 -r 0 -c 5 -fr 15 -d /dev/video0 2592.yuv

if i==0

I can capture the picture less than or equal to 720*576.
