So what is your question now? Why it doesn't work? What the error mean?

#

The errors are pretty easy to google

#

But it just looks like it will not work, as it will most likely need some special driver

#

Just don't use any creality cam with Crowsnest. They only make trouble as they are clearly not intended to be used outside the creality eco system

I don't know how that cam exactly works, but I guess it has some own interface?

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:48 PM

#

I dont know.

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:48 PM

#

If you want to use it with Crowsnest, it wouldn't have any AI features, so just stay within the creality eco system with this stuff

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:48 PM

#

stiff fulcrum I dont know.

What?

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:48 PM

#

vital island If you want to use it with Crowsnest, it wouldn't have any AI features, so just ...

Thats ok for me.

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:48 PM

#

You bought it and have no idea how it works?

#

Or you are planning to buy it, because someone called the quality "good"?

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:49 PM

#

I already bought it. it should work because he have it installed.

#

Why are you linking it again?

#

He is most likely just using the creality stuff ig

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:50 PM

#

He installed it on a voron?

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:50 PM

#

And?

#

If it got some webinterface that doesn't matter

#

But it seems like you can control it with v4l2-ctl

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:51 PM

#

Yeah i know, but first i need to have some video.

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:51 PM

#

But I still don't get why you want to use it with Crowsnest, as you are missing completely out on the aspect of the AI features

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:51 PM

#

Because its a cheap camara with good cam quality.

#

and easy to mount

#

the AI features doesnt matter

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:52 PM

#

There are others with not so shitty companies behind it, that got the same quality...

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:53 PM

#

I dont want to discuss about whats a good camara. i want to fix this one. i had before this one a RPI cam. but that one are dead.

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:53 PM

#

I don't know what the exact problem might be. Could be wrong cable, maybe not enough power (powered usb hub will help), but as you might already have guessed, I don't want to debug creality cams anymore. They only make trouble everytime someone comes up with one

#

I only see that he linked some cable, so I assume that cam comes without it

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:54 PM

#

Yep, i tried 2 cables.

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:54 PM

#

So I would think that the most likely problem will be some cable problem

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:54 PM

#

I tried the cable from the ADXL also. and on the ADXL it works fine.

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:54 PM

#

Only other option I can recommend is a powered usb hub

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:55 PM

#

stiff fulcrum I tried the cable from the ADXL also. and on the ADXL it works fine.

It doesn't matter, if the single pins are swapped maybe. So the cable doesn't have to work for everything containing 5 pins

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 4:56 PM

#

i understand, but there is no wiring diagram 🥱

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 4:57 PM

#

That's one of the reasons why I don't want to debug this

#

It's just a shitty company

#

Your best bet will be that cable the person linked

#

Try to find info about the modules listed there

#

Then you can find out about the wiring of the cam, as it should work with that cam

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 5:02 PM

#

I know the wiring, i checked the wiring from the k1 max

#

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 5:04 PM

#

I told you what I know and I told you that I won't be willing to do anything further. Google the errors that you got on dmesg, maybe they will help you. Otherwise I recommend to go to some Discord specifically for Creality stuff as they might know more about this thing

stiff fulcrum Dec 5, 2024, 9:12 PM

#

@vital island do you have a good alternative? I see other people with this issue. They have a nee version and this gives issues. The old one works fine.

vital island Dec 5, 2024, 9:32 PM

#

Please don't ping me

#

So newer versions of the creality ai cam make problems?

#

Overall I don't have recommendations. Logitech cams are getting used quite a lot, but I never used one myself.
Personally I use a picam v3 and I really like the image quality.

stiff fulcrum Dec 6, 2024, 2:20 PM

#

Yeah it looks like.
