Hello,

I was working on i.MX8M EVK with Android platform and came to know that both the ov5640_mipi cameras are controlled by i2c1 with same i2c address. Is there any way i can use both the cameras simultaneously?? If so, can you please help in getting both the cameras up on the EVK!!

Regards,

Deexith V

Hi Deexith

rev.B4/B5 board has different i2c ports for two cameras, please check latest schematic

Design Files for the i.MX 8M Evaluation Kit (EVK)

i.MX 8M Evaluation Kit|NXP 

fsl-imx8mq-evk.dts\freescale\dts\boot\arm64\arch - linux-imx - i.MX Linux kernel 

If this custom board one can design it using different i.MX8M i2c buses.

Test for 2 camera streams:

root@imx8mqevk:~# gst-launch-1.0 glvideomixer name=m sink_0::ypos=0 sink_0::xpos=0 sink_1::ypos=160 sink_1::xpos=0 ! glimagesink  v4l2src device=/dev/video0 ! videoscale ! video/x-raw,width=160,height=160 ! m.  v4l2src device=/dev/video1 ! videoscale ! video/x-raw,width=160,height=160 ! m.

Best regards
igor
