Hi all.
I'm trying to expose the CSI video device with the adv7180 decoder on a IMX6 Solo/Dual (Variscite IMX6 Solo/Dual).
I managed to patch the kernel and the device is running. I can get a gstreamer pipe with:
gst-launch-1.0 imxv4l2videosrc ! imxeglvivsink
and get the parallel camera interface input on the touchscreen (I use a variscite solo CustomBoard EVB with a standard touch). The video is working. I am using an analogic camera attached to the adv7180 and all is now smooth.
I am now trying to get this device working on chromium as a webcam with WebRTC (appr.tc).
The v4l2 device is not used and not seen. If I start chromium with LD_PRELOAD and v4l1compat.so, chromium
seems to access the adv7180 device but it shows a black screen with no apparent error.
I have enabled debug support on my adv7180.c file and with "v4l2-ctl --list-formats-ext" I get nothing from the v4l2 device:
ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUM_FMT
the device is accessed but it seems not to return compatible formats.
Where am I failing?
Any hint?
This may help.
