The sample v4l2 driver you've mentioned only manages the parallel CSI interface module, but does not handle the setup of the ADV7180 chip itself. Have you performed the ADV7180 chip configuration/setup correctly? Please check. Also, please check with the oscilloscope the ADV7180 chip's output signal timings. Are they all correct?

Best Regards,

Artur

Do you mean the i.MX53 QuickStart Board (QSB)? If so, this board does not have a dedicated connector for camera connection. All of the CSI0 interface signals are routed to the J13 expansion connctor, please refer to the board's schematic, available on the i.MX53 QSB Downloads web page (chek under the "Printed Circuit Boards and Schematics-Schematics" tab):

http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=IMX53QSB&fpsp=1&tab=Design_Tools_Tab

There is no dedicated camera module for this connector, so, first, you have to build the camera hardware. Then, the Linux BSP provides a prototype camera driver that you have to modify according to the camera you use.

Or, you can use an USB camera that supports the UVC specification:

Have a great day,
Artur

You may use the Gstreamer to test the cam.

$ gst-launch v4l2src ! mfw_v4lsink

if doesn't work, please try:

$ gst-launch v4l2src ! decodebin2 ! mfw_v4lsink

To install Gstreamer parsers under Ubuntu :


$ sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-good && sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
