Camera not recognized

[MarkHaysHarris777]

what needs to stop is deleting posts , done by some moderators , made by members/consumers who are expressing their opinion about issues that are happening.  companies that sell product in the u.s. are bound by federal law which protects consumers.  one of those laws is notification to the consumer of requirements.  for instance, if a piece of hardware is being sold that requires specific software that is not available from the seller, notice needs to be made.  so, like when a certain moderator made warning against certain software, the same type warning or notice should be made about the specific hardware needing certain software by the seller. people who do not live in the u.s. probably are not aware of the consumer protection act which is federal law in the u.s. . it probably is also a violation for agents to delete notice given by consumers to other consumers. but consumers of products such as the camera who are aware of limitations of the products have, in the united states, a right to notify other potential consumers that software needed to operate the camera is not available from the seller.  so i'd like to ask any moderators who are deleting posts by members/consumers of product being made to other member/potential consumer of product to just stop. these particular posts are made by a u.s. citizen who is buying a product in the u.s. and is covered by the consumer protection act and all other consumer laws. thank you.

Nonsense.

... we will attempt this once more, only, then posts will be deleted (and possibly, accounts will be disabled).

Pine bashing is not going to be tolerated. Its not fair, and its not helpful.  Cease and desist.

Your statement about product function is categorically in error; this is not a matter of debate, its a matter of fact. The PineA64 board and camera, including LCD and Android software work perfectly.  I have personally tested the setup and can categorically affirm the function of theses products. In fact, the 5mp camera (with Android LCD image running on the PineA64) takes beautiful pictures by anyone's definition. its a fabulous setup.

No promises were made, nor implied, that your particular setup or purpose would be satisfactorily realized with all possible combinations and permutations of possible hardware and software. That said, many combinations and permutations of hardware and software have been realized on the PineA64 in just the last 60 days.  For instance, I booted Gentoo gnu+linux today on the PineA64 board (2Gb) and have enjoyed a sweet ride--- that wasn't even possible just a few months ago... the new integrated drm code has corrected the framebuffer console cursor problem, and the gnu+linux image (Gentoo) is stable and solid.  The 5mp camera will run there too; albeit the procedures have not been nailed down yet.

My PineA64 Android image and 5mp camera function perfectly.  I have posted pics from that camera to this forum many times now. Feel free to take a look, but cease immediately to bash the Pine team, nor the Pine products, on this forum.  Play nice, or not at all.
