Currently setting up a Voxl 2 for DFS with Ardupilot and can read the proximity for the most part but think I have a lot of false positives... https://docs.modalai.com/dfs-qrb5165/ this page is a WiP so I was wondering if anyone found ideal tuning parameters for the config file to do obstacle avoidance with the QRB5165???

I noticed in the wifi setup that there's a note that says

Note: It’s not currently possible to assign a static IP, only DHCP is supported. If you need a static IP on your own wifi network it’s best to configure that in your router’s software.

I was wondering if this is still true today or if this was addressed in the new 1.0 SDK?

@Alex-Kushleyev Awesome. On a different note, do you know why ffmpeg has no issue with the aspect ratio of the stream but in QGroundControl, the stream seems to be vertically squished? I would guess ffmpeg correctly makes some assumptions about the aspect ratio that voxl-streamer doesn't outwardly declare and maybe QGC doesn't make these assumptions?

@Alex-Kushleyev Incredible, it works! Thanks Alex

@Alex-Kushleyev it's probably just my gstreamer ignorance and it not being as simple to set up an h265 stream as swapping our h264 with h265

@Alex-Kushleyev Thanks for getting back. Here's our fork of voxl-streamer and the specific commit

As you can see, not much going on here. I just noticed how the 265 omx encoder object would be created but just unused when encoding a raw stream (using hires_small_grey in my tests which is RAW8).

When I try to connect to the stream, streamer gives the following

voxl2-mini:~$ voxl-streamer -i hires_small_grey -s -b 2000000 -p 554
Waiting for pipe hires_small_grey to appear
Found Pipe
detected following stats from pipe:

Camera server Connected

no more rtsp clients, closing source pipe intentionally

and using ffmpeg to connect gives the following

It looks like if you are to use voxl-streamer to encode a RAW8 pipe, it will default to encoding it in h264. Is there a way to change this to 265? I tried recompiling the service and editing the pipeline.c file to use the 265 encoder where applicable (and changed other mentions of 264 to 265) but the stream fails when I try to start it. Is there a simpler way to achieve what I'm trying to do that I'm missing?

What are the differences between M0125 and M0151? I can't find any references to M0151 in the forums or technical docs.

@Vinny Extremely useful. Thanks Vinny!

Specifically this one

Hi. The technical documentation page is currently blank but I was wondering if the step or sldprt file for the new VOXL 2 Ethernet and USB Hub was readily available. Thanks

@Vinny Thanks for this info this is super helpful. I 100% agree about the last thing you said and if I can use the ModalAI power adapter then I definitely will. I got the 7.4V spec by assuming nominal 2S battery voltage to nominal 6S, which was probably a bad assumption. Even so, a 2S battery from dead to full charge is typically 6.4V to 8.4V so I figured 5V input was probably not sufficient for the power module as it was not in the range of 2S to 6S. Seems like this may not be the case though which is excellent
