Armbianmonitor:

Dear friends! Please help me! What am I doing wrong?

 

I have Orange Pi Pc Plus. I am using Armbian. 4 months ago I bought a CSI camera OV5640 from Steven Zhao:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32869355445.html

With expansion board!

 

It's working under Android, but /dev/video0 does not appear in Armbian!

 

~$ sudo uname -a
Linux smart 3.4.113-sun8i #2 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 8 15:09:43 CEST 2019 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux



:~$ sudo modprobe ov5640

:~$ sudo modprobe vfe_v4l2



:~$ dmesg | grep -i ov56

I don't tried to make drivers from source code ...

May be need other driver, that not included in the distr?

Armbian & Khadas are rewarding contributors

If i recall correctly you need to set (enable) a pin on  u-boot load time and specific to your PC Plus and OV5640.

 

Have you tried to set the pin on u-boot boot.cmd?

Something like:

 

# OPI-PC camera (set PG11 for gc2035)
gpio set PL10
gpio set PA17
#gpio set PG11

 

This error message typically tells you the board cannot find the attached sensor.

Possible causes are:

 

*  Sensor Not powered correctly (see which pin or píns should be set at boot)

Make sure theses lines are for the OV5640 and PC Plus.

vip_dev0_power_en = port:PA17<1><default><default><1>
vip_dev0_reset = port:PE14<1><default><default><1>
vip_dev0_pwdn = port:PE15<1><default><default><0>

* i2c is already in use, double check your Fex file and disable the correct twi, this seems to be OK in your FEX but try:

 

[twi1]
twi_used = 0
twi_scl = port:PA18<3><default><default><default>
twi_sda = port:PA19<3><default><default><default>

[twi2]
twi_used = 0
twi_scl = port:PE12<3><default><default><default>
twi_sda = port:PE13<3><default><default><default>

Dear @@lex, I tried set different pin on u-boot boot.cmd... But this does not give a result ...  dev/video0 does not appear!

 

If i right understand, My board is Orange Pi PC Plus v 1.1. I don't know where can I to found number of board version! And I proceed from that is version 1.1...
For my schematic PL10 look so:             PL10/S_PWM/S_PL_EINT10 ---V2--->> PWR-LED
According schematic:                              PE15 ----C5--->>CSI-STBY-EN

But in my fex file:                                    vip_dev0_pwdn = PE15<1><default><default><0>   //may it be wrong??

What different pin?

 

My working recipe for OV5640 + Orange Pi PC Plus + legacy kernel:

 

fex:

[csi0]
vip_dev0_mname = "ov5640"

Run following commands each time or add to /etc/rc.local

sunxi-pio -m "PG11<1><0><1><1>"
modprobe ov5640 (dmesg: [OV5640@lex]init_sensor - frame_rate: 0, max_win_size: 11)
modprobe vfe_v4l2 (multiple lines in dmesg and then /dev/video0 appears)

dmesg

[  207.918084] [OV5640@lex]init_sensor - frame_rate: 0, max_win_size: 11

test the capture:

fswebcam -r 1600x1200 -D 3 -p YUV420P aaa.jpg

I captured video over vlc! It's working fine. I want to try translate video over ffmpeg.

Dear friends!  If someone know answers on my questions, please write here: 

1) how to change fps and resolutions? only ffmpeg? can I to make it over hardware?

2) how to flip image of camera? I'm making simple robot for fun! And me need move camera with servo-motor.

3) how work AF?

 

P.S.

I don't know why, but I can't to use  $fswebcam...

There is error:  "Error setting pixel format. VIDIOC_S_FMT: Operation not permitted."

Guys!
These are my actions for make CSI-camera OV-5640  on ORANGE PI PC PLUS work:


1) change fex-file

vip_dev0_mname = "ov5640"
vip_dev0_power_en = port:PA17<1><default><default><1>
vip_dev0_reset = port:PE14<1><default><default><1>
vip_dev0_pwdn = port:PE15<1><default><default><0>

 

2) Add next commands to /etc/rc.local

sunxi-pio -m "PG11<1><0><1><1>" #DOVDD

modprobe ov5640
modprobe vfe_v4l2

3) Add this to /boot/boot.cmd

 gpio set PG11
 gpio set PA17

 

 

It's short way to the Purpose for Orange Pi Pc Plus with original 5Mp Ov5640 CSI camera from developer!

This recipe can save someone a lot of time.

 

P.S.

It's working on legacy kernel! And I don't tried run it on others kernels...

It's my system:

~$uname -a
Linux smart 3.4.113-sun8i #2 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 8 15:09:43 CEST 2019 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux

 

P.P.S.

Streaming video works well under ffmpeg, but has a 3-5 second delay! How it may be fixed - I don't know... May be someone know tool or way for make delay less, than 1 second???
I'm searching exit from this situation...

You are on your own in this case.

Support for stone-age legacy kernel using fex files has been dropped two years ago.
