@keil It would be helpful to get some debug output from voxl to help diagnose the issue. Can you send the output of ```voxl-inspect-services```? There is a debug command line option for ```voxl-streamer```. It would be helpful to get the output from that as well. The flag is ```-d```. You'll want to start voxl-streamer from the command line using whatever options you normally use plus the ```-d``` option. Make sure that voxl-streamer is not already running when you do this. If it has been auto started with a systemd service then you can stop it with ```systemctl stop voxl-streamer```. And I'm guessing that you already looked through the voxl-streamer documentation at https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-streamer/?

Hi, 

It looks like the camera server has encountered an error when trying to start since it's enabled but not running, this is usually due to either a misconfiguration or a hardware issue. Can you show what ```journalctl -u voxl-camera-server``` and ```cat /etc/modalai/voxl-camera-server.conf``` look like. These are the camera server logs and config file respectively.
