How to use PI camera V2.0 as a video input?

[mhaboali]

Thanks for such a great and useful project.

Recently, I've been trying to test it with my PI camera V2.0(CSI-Camera) on Jetson Nano with JetPack 4.3, Ubuntu 18.04, and CUDA 10.0.

I modified the Dockerfile of Nano you offer to disable running the command. Then I tried to run the gstreamer command inside the container but I got this error as shown here:

And the same command works on the same machine outside the docker container.

Could you help me to get it running with this CSI-Camera?

I believe you must pass through the Argus socket. So add the following to your docker run:

-v /tmp/argus_socket:/tmp/argus_socket

You may also have to do the same with /tmp/camsock and nvscsock. I'm not certain but --runtime nvidia may bind mount all of this automatically.

Thanks a lot @mdegans

Now it works by adding the argus_socket folder 🚀

I added some code in the core.py file to read the CSI camera instead of USB or video inputs and I've tested it and it worked. Should I create a pull request for that?

Yes, that would be very much appreciated @mhaboali
