Camera model

elp-usb8mp04af-v72 / ELP 8mp

What is the problem?

I cant figure out how to view the stream from this USB camera

What did you already try to solve it?

I have edited octopi.txt. it is MJPG compatible so I did not add the -y parameter. I also uncommented the camera options toward the bottom in accordance to this guide. Info can be found online for the full specs but I configured it for the max supported 3264X2448 MJPEG@15fps
The stream url is the default /webcam/?action=stream
lsusb output is

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 32e4:8430
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 2109:3431 VIA Labs, Inc. Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

(it's Device 006: ID 32e4:8430)

Have you tried running in safe mode?

Yes

Did running in safe mode solve the problem?

No

Not quite sure if the resolution itself is an issue or the way you set the parameters

That's the error message:
Invalid height/width '3264X2448' specified!

try a lower case x -> 3264x2448 instead of 3264X2448

If it still doesn't work, ssh into the Pi and run v4l2-ctl --list-formats-ext

That was the exact issue, kind of embarrassing copy/paste there. Lowered the case, started working immediately. Thank you :sweat_smile:
