PostmarketOS Camera and ffmeg

[rafiki88]

Hi,
I'm looking a way to capture picture from rear camera with ffmpeg, I have tried multiple ways to configure camera with media-ctl with no luck

below output from media-ctl -d /dev/media1 --print-topology

Code:

Media device information
------------------------
driver          sun6i-csi
model           Allwinner Video Capture Device
serial         
bus info        platform:1cb0000.csi
hw revision     0x0
driver version  5.15.13

Device topology
- entity 1: sun6i-csi (1 pad, 2 links)
            type Node subtype V4L flags 0
            device node name /dev/video2
        pad0: Sink
                <- "ov5640 4-004c":0 [ENABLED]
                <- "gc2145 4-003c":0 []

- entity 5: ov5640 4-004c (1 pad, 1 link)
            type V4L2 subdev subtype Sensor flags 0
            device node name /dev/v4l-subdev0
        pad0: Source
                [fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/1280x720@1/30 colorspace:srgb xfer:srgb ycbcr:601 quantization:full-range]
                -> "sun6i-csi":0 [ENABLED]

- entity 7: gc2145 4-003c (1 pad, 1 link)
            type V4L2 subdev subtype Sensor flags 0
            device node name /dev/v4l-subdev1
        pad0: Source
                [fmt:SBGGR8_1X8/1280x960@1/60 field:none colorspace:raw]
                -> "sun6i-csi":0 []

and when I trying to execute ffmpeg -s 1280x720 -f video4linux2 -i /dev/video2 -vframes 1 selfie.jpg got in results error
