Can you link the python app?

Any information on the driver used for camera access?

On Mobian, only /dev/video1 claims video capture capability via the sun6i driver and no controls are reported.

Code:

https://twongkee.wordpress.com/2020/03/2...phone-pic/ appears to use the ov5640 driver.

Poked around a bit more and there is a dmesg error for the ov5640 device for Mobian.

On pmOS, the camera "works" as a video device without autofocus. A video player is used for the viewfinder and can be used to "take photos".

Yes, last I checked the driver is loaded, but it can't init the camera, not sure what the problem is yet
