#Crowsnest Config Not Applying

Hi, I'm trying to change my webcam's resolution from 640x480 to 1920x1080, however changing that value in the crowsnest.conf file (then restarting) doesn't apply; my webcam stays at 640x480. It seems like any other change I make to the crowsnest.conf file doesn't apply either, like changing the port to 8081 or even completely removing the [cam 1] section.

Any idea why this is happening? I've also ran find -iname crowsnest.conf and the only files that appear (besides the expected path) are backups and the one in ~/crowsnest/resources/crowsnest.conf (which I assume is an example file.

First of all, please use the /dev/v4l/by-id path in device. After that remove the custom_flag you set, vecause it doesnt apply for camera-streamer und lets it crash. Also please provide a fresh log with ```
log_level: debug
delete_log: true

Wait a minute or alike, after reatarting the service, upload new log.(without renaming please)

@keen quest device/v4l2/buffer_list.c: CAMERA:capture: ioctl(ret=-1, errno=16): Can't set format did you see smt. like this in the past?

#

Device supports mjpeg but for some reason it throws this error

Yes a lot. But I don't know yet what it means. I recommend to try a powered hub, but it could be basically everything

#

Run dmesg > ~/printer_data/config/dmesg.txt and then send the dmesg.txt appearing on the machine page

I also tried using a 67w laptop charger with the rpi (I don't have a powered hub) and it doesn't seem to make a change.

That ofc won't make a change, as the pi is not magically giving more power. It doesn't have power delivery, like the Pi5

Yeah that's what I thought too 😔

#

I'll see if I can find a powered hub anywhere tomorrow lol

Tried it with a powered hub and nothing seems to change.

Does the cam work on your PC?

sacred apex
#

Yeah the cam works fine on my pc, it only outputs 640x480 on the raspi.

And I finally read the whole original message. Even your port doesn't apply?

#

Or only with the other resolution set?

sacred apex
#

The camera works when connected to the raspi, however the crowsnest config is not being followed. I set the resolution to 1920x1080 and the port to 8081, however they do not apply. The port stays 8080 and the camera stays 640x480

Atm the log only shows me a not starting cam

#

Send a log and your config

#

Which config are you editing? The one inside Mainsail?

sacred apex
#

I'm not at my 3d printer rn, I'll be back probably tomorrow so I'll get new logs then.

I also tried using a capture card into the raspi and there is no change.
