Hi everyone!

I could use some help with the camera module on my OrangePI plus:
(http://www.aliexpress.com/item/o ... or/32255931892.html)
- the pre-installed android identifies the camera, when i run the camera app, everything is ok => i can see the camera stream
- when i run LSUSB in the Debian8 image (OrangePI_Jessie_Xfce.img) there is no camera entry there!
(LSUSB was also emtpy in Raspbian_For_OrangePiplus_v0_8_0.img)

Some background:
I want to make a timelapse video/photoshoot.
I tried a USB camera earlier, LSUSB listed the camera as "ixart Imaging, Inc. Q-TEC WEBCAM 100", but i was unable to make the camera to work,
the DEV/VIDEO entry was missing...
(i dont remember the whole process - it was about a month ago...)
Since the USB camera was not working, i ordered the OrangePI camera module...

Ive spent about 10+ hours with this problem, and i just cant get around it...
Ill try to browse these forums once again for the solution.

I have tried these walkthroughs:

Thanks in advance for your time and advice gyus!!!

I finally decided to install motion and try it. Its not really the tool I want to use for this device. I want to use mjpg-streamer.

However, it does in fact work with motion so now I just need to figure out how its reading the camera and what I need to change in mjpg-streamer to make it work.

Thanks for the push to follow the directions.

toxuin has usb webcam working on his Opi. Must use latest update_kernel.sh from loboris with a loboris image. Loboris mega site: https://mega.nz/#F!wh8l2BjK!OBep3nMldBletvNNwkH2Jg.
I had my OPiPlus wirking with on-board camera following cnxsoft article... http://www.cnx-software.com/2015 ... -linux-with-motion/

Could you elaborate on what you did to get your camera module working? What linux distro are you using? Did you change the script.bin file at all?

I've been unable to get mine to work using the XFCE Debian 8 image and the latest kernel. Ive loaded the gc2035 and vfe_v4l2 modules but no capture applications can start and there are about vfe in dmesg(I'll post them later when I'm on the device.

Only capture I got to work was motion, following cnxsoft guide...
