    Hi,

    I have an issue with the Sentinel Cameras. All the cameras seem to be outputting distorted video feeds. Screenshots attached below.
    What I have done -
    voxl-configure-cameras sentinel -> voxl-streamer -c hires OR voxl-streamer -c stereo OR voxl-streamer -c tracking

    I have also tried different configurations for the cameras, voxl-configure-cameras 11 AND voxl-configure-cameras 3 The last one just to test.

    Terminal output:

    QGC Video feed (This is only Hires, but both tracking and stereo is the same way):

        Can you try voxl-portal and make sure they show up properly there? If they appear properly, then it's a voxl-streamer configuration issue

          @rohitpillai In the current version of voxl-streamer you need to use the software h264 encoder, not OMX. That is specified with the -x
          option on the command line. The OMX encoder has been fixed in the latest release which should be available next week,

            Yep it works properly on voxl-portal.

            I also tried voxl-streamer -x and it works! Although the camera seems to be a tad bit blurry. Increasing the resolution doesn't seem to fix this.

            Any idea when the latest release will be available this week?

            Thanks!

                Which camera are you talking about? The Stereo and HiRes sensors on sentinel have manually adjustable focus
