If i use a v1 or v2 pi cam my air pi work as espected and send signal to the ground pi , but when i plug the veye 327E my air pi acts as a ground pi and start the hotspot and wait for a signal (I think) .
i use pi 3b+ both air and ground openhd 2.0.8 with untouched config lest my old setup create even more problems.
do I have to necessarily change some parameter in the configuration to make the veye 327E work?
I await some suggestions to be able to proceed.
Thanks and greetings from Adriano
I supply 5v power to the camera, and fearing a malfunction I tried it on a raspbian installation and it works normally, but openhd still does not notice that the camera is connected and continues to act as a “ground pi”
i also changed the resolution setting to 1920x1080x30 but it doesn’t work.
What do you recommend?
I found the solution by asking on the telegramm group.
The solution was:
In the file config.txt
#uncomment below if using veye innomaker imx219 cam or HAT
dtparam=i2c_vc=on
thanks you saved me some time
I flew with it
i have 2 questions :
- do you have a separate 5 volts for pi & veye cam ?
- I have a strange color for the sky, can you share your settings ?
thanks

I don’t know if these parameters are used with this camera
these below are certainly used, but they are almost the stock ones

This is a complicated setting, see here: http://wiki.veye.cc/index.php/VEYE-MIPI-290/327_i2c
IMX290_denoise=0x00
0x00 means fixed framerate, up to 0x11 will allow the camera to adjust framerate to increase exposure, which
may not be desirable for FPV
IMX290_lowlight=0x10
agc indicated max gain of AE mode
Range 0x00 to 0x0F
IMX290_agc=0x00
AE Target Brightness
Range 0x00 to 0x64
IMX290_brightness=0x32
AE adjust speed, p1 is agc speed, p2 is shutter speed,Slow to Fast: [0, 0x64]

Used to flip/mirror the IMX307 camera, separate setting from IMX290 because they don’t handle it the same way
0: normal, 1: flip, 2: mirror, 3: flip+mirror.
Note that the IMX307 configuration system seems to expect numbers like 0, not 0x00 like imx290 mirrormode
IMX307_imagedir=0
