• OAK-FFC OV9782 W not giving RGB image

Hi, after solving issue on OAK-FFC-6P (no available devices), I tried to obtain RGB camera stream with OV9782 W camera. I tried it both with cam_test.py script from utilities, and script provided in RGB video tutorial. The programs get connection to the camera, but none of them is able to retrieve any image (script from utilities doesn't show image and show 0 FPS, and the script from tutorials blocks on video.get() method call - line 32 in python version of the script). The tutorial script was of course adapted to my model of the camera (changed resolution and video size parameters).

What's important is that I'm able to get the grayscale image with the same camera - both with cam_test.py and tutorial script (adapted for mono camera dai.node).

One more important thing is that with the cam_test.py the detected sensor name is OV9282. Here i provide some screenshots of my tests:

The camera is connected to the port CAM-A. Here is the photo of the setup, and the camera itself:

Can anyone guide me how to get the RGB image using this camera?

Sorry for the delay here…
Flashing this FIP should make OV9282 or OV9782 on any sockets handled as color:
https://artifacts.luxonis.com/artifactory/tmp/fip-oak-ffc-6p-kb-1.5.0_OV9782.bin
movisoc-fwu -a fip-oak-ffc-6p-kb-1.5.0_OV9782.bin

A note: MonoCamera won't work afterwards, as color/mono is set hardcoded in DTS. Can revert by flashing: https://luxonisos.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/release/recovery/fip-oak-ffc-6p-rvc3-1.2.0.bin

We're also looking to make the color/mono selection possible with depthai, like on RVC2. It would probably require a Luxonis OS update.

Another thing is frame syncing, for multiple ColorCamera is needs to be manually set for now, can configure one OV9782 to generate the sync signal, and the other(s) to receive it:
colorLeft.initialControl.setFrameSyncMode(dai.CameraControl.FrameSyncMode.OUTPUT)
colorRight.initialControl.setFrameSyncMode(dai.CameraControl.FrameSyncMode.INPUT)

    Is this a problem with the syncing? The image below I got from the same setup (one OV9782 camera on port A) and cam_test.pyscript, but with kb-1.5.0OV9782.bin firmware flashed.

    @bitterisland6 This is due to the resolution set (default 1080p), please set it explicitly for now with -cres 800.
    (We'll have to fix the default handling, or error out.)
