Raspberry Pi 4B with HQ camera not showing in MotionEyeOS?
Hi,
Hoping this is a simple one to fix as I'm not very experianced !?
I have my Raspberry Pi 4B and Raspberry HQ camera runing fine on the stock Raspberry Pi OS with MotionEye installed - all good there. I have then been keen to get the same hardware running MotionEyeOS and have tried both versions below. To get MotionEyeOS to boot I had to copy start4.elf and fixup4x.dat over from the the working SD card and from there all seems good apart from the camera screen is showing "Unable to open video device" but in the VIDEO DEVICE options it seems to be there:
Camera ID: 1 Camera Device: /dev/video10 Camera Type: V4L2 Camera
I have seen other people have had success running the same hardware/software setup so I guess I'm missing a simple step to do with enabling the camera? In the MotionEye version that works I had to enable the camera in raspi-config but this doesn't seem to be possible in MotionEyeOS or not at least if I type 'sudo raspi-config' from the command prompt?
Any help or pointers much appreciated :-)
motionEyeOS Version
motioneyeos-raspberrypi4-20200606.img motioneyeos-raspberrypi4-dev20201026.img
Board Model: Raspberry PI 4B 2GB
Camera: Raspberry Pi HQ camera V4L2
Network Connection: Ethernet
The HQ camera was released after the dev20201026 image, and was not supported which is why it was always recommended to do an RPiOS install and motionEye...
Thanks starbasessd, this video seems to show it all working fine with the HQ camera and I have followed the same steps, perhaps something is different about the camera?

Which camera do you have? There have been many versions, using different sensors, and by different mfgs... Does your camera have the official raspberry pi logo and model #?
When running motionEyeOS (preferably dev20201026) what does the command:
vcgencmd get_camera
give you?
This is the original Raspberry Pi V1.0 HQ camera dated 2018 on the PCB so in theory it has the Sony IMX477 sensor? I can't access the board at the moment but will run that command tomorrow and report back.
Thank you.
Hello @Solarbot - Where did you copy start4.elf and fixup4x.dat files from ? I am unable to boot MotionEyeOS with Raspberry Pi 4 Model B
Hi, Sorry for the slow reply. I got mine from a working install of an OS but you can also download them from folks who have shared, EG: https://github.com/motioneye-project/motioneyeos/issues/2419
Hope that helps.
