Raspberry Pi 5 with Camera Module 3 on bookworm step-by-step

[b-morgan]

Issue #248 claims that this combination works. I followed all the suggestions in that issue but I can't get it to work. All the packages listed are installed. Would it be possible to get a step-by-step guide?

I keep getting the Invalid argument error shown below.

Using https://github.com/ArduCAM/mjpg-streamer which has an input_libcamera.so I was able to get stills and video.

Hello. Please try this recipe: https://github.com/pikvm/ustreamer?tab=readme-ov-file#raspberry-pi-camera-example

Sup?

Sorry, was busy on another project. I believe this is the result of:

$ sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2 $ libcamerify ./ustreamer --host :: --encoder=m2m-image

test.zip

I used script to capture the output. If there is a better way, let me know.

BTW, the examples on that page have a "$" at the beginning of each line which makes copy and paste worthless.

Probably some kind of bug in libcamerify. I can't do anything here because ustreamer only works with V4L2 devices, sorry. You should ask Raspberry support about libcamerify.
